I think the most powerful thing a business could accept is the truth from their customers and supporters. There are plenty of excellent things from our
sponsors. There are also some difficulties that we experience using their products. It is not all negative. It should be seen as an opportunity to improve and focus. At least that's how I would want my business partners to see it. An unrivaled community of growers that are avid and honest reviewers of products. An easy opportunity to invest in the improvement of a brand. A serious no-brainer in my book. But...
Those expectations can lead to so much difficulty with the site's vision and focus on
keeping the lights on. Like you said, could look negatively on the site as well.
I appreciate your opinions Shed. I never viewed your thoughts on it as a negative. It's important for a business to know when a product is not working. From dosage measurements to applications and affect. It all matters and should be seen as invaluable.
So here's one for you. You have seen my many up and downs. I have been tagging
sponsors even in those situations. Not always. But generally, I will tag
sponsors directly. Maybe I shouldn't do that as much. My failures could be seen as a negative on their performance?
Never mind. I'm stoned...I'll go away now...
