]]> Comment on Free! Is There an Online Business Model to $0.00? by admin http://blog.profits.cc/2009/03/free-is-there-an-online-business-model-to-000/#comment-150 admin Sun, 29 Mar 2009 12:08:24 +0000 http://blog.profits.cc/?p=225#comment-150 Well, creating hassles for the customer to unsubscribe before getting billed is not in the merchant's interest, because there is a common procedure with credit cards called "chargeback", and the merchant is even charged $25 after the unauthorized transaction is reversed. The term "free" is being discussed here within the context of Free vs. Paid business models, and the question is: how do you make any business viable "without asking for something in return"? Do you keep asking your customers for "donations" after the transaction takes place? But that's not a viable business model...

]]> Comment on Free! Is There an Online Business Model to $0.00? by Misato Katsuragi http://blog.profits.cc/2009/03/free-is-there-an-online-business-model-to-000/#comment-149 Misato Katsuragi Sun, 29 Mar 2009 04:58:55 +0000 http://blog.profits.cc/?p=225#comment-149 When I read this, which is also the article in the latest issue fo PPC Email Strategies Explained newsletter that I received, I couldn't help but think "Huh??? What free business model"? Anything with strings attatched isn't free. While even paying just the shipping and handling charges for something isn't truly free either, I can half way understand why some people might thing that it is. But Chris even said that in addition to the shipping and handling, you would automatically be subscribed to Mike Filesame's newsletter, and although the 1st issue might be free, it would be interesting to see just how much of a hassle and how many hoops someone might have to jump through to unsubscribe before getting billed for the 2nd issue. Now, this might not be the case with Mike F., but is a fairly common tactic that is used be others, and while even these marketers might cancel your subscription upon request, in order to stay within the law, it is not uncommon for many of them to make canceling a subscription as difficult a process as they can. I know. I have seen this happen way too many times. Free doesn't mean getting something for shipping. Free doesn't mean getting something only if you take out a subscription. The dictionary definition of 'Free' is "something that is given without asking for something in return". People in internt marketign just love to play fast and loose with the word 'Free'. It's no wonder practically every spam filter out there flags messages with the word 'Free' as spam.
