Disclosure Policy of my Andrew Van Valer’s Blog
I sincerely value relationships and the people reading my materials, as much as they value me, my expertise, and my recommendations. For this reason, I try to be as open and forthright as possible.
Relationships are more important than transactions. Since my primary business is helping others, my growth comes from referrals from people who trust me. I don’t have to spend my precious time prospecting and promoting myself. I dedicate myself to the activities that benefit you most and always try to deliver exceptional service.
It is all about TRUST. Lets face it, in today’s environment, we are all seeking services, products and PEOPLE we can trust – I’m no exception.
I’m a big fan of full disclosure and opening the Kimono so to speak. It holds us accountable and helps us make better decisions. We all make mistakes from time to time and by being as open as possible I have found that sometimes the things I do with the greatest intent, others might see in a different light. It is important to get feedback from those you trust, who know your ethics, and will let you know that your actions don’t match your intent. My main goal t is to help you by either learning by my mistakes, my successes, or leveraging my experiences and knowledge to make your journey that much easier for you.
In an effort to be as clear, open, and candid as possible, this is a highlight of some of my relationships, the ways I am compensated, as well as the results I sometimes showcase on this blog.
- I occasionally make recommendations on this blog, which include links to helpful resources for which I may get some kind of compensation. If compensated, I might get a commission for each sale, or receive some form of remuneration, either financially or in kind.
- These recommendations are based always based on their merit. I make them either because of their value, helpfulness, and quality, or based on my direct or indirect knowledge of the author’s reputation, track record, and level of expertise. No advertiser will ever influence the content on this blog.
- Some links do not have any affiliation or compensation whatsoever, but are included because I believe in them….I add them based on their merit and value. If I find them helpful and suspect that they may be of interest to my readers, I will include them, regardless of compensation or lack thereof.
- Typical results are exceedingly difficult to predict or measure as all markets, individuals, businesses, motives, and results are unique. Yours will be no exception. It is your journey and I can only share with you my experiences and knowledge to help you create yours.
- As with most training programs or information products, by their very nature all results are atypical. Such programs are not “one-size-fits-all” solutions as they teach a wide variety of systems and strategies. Therefore, it is impossible for anyone to predict how, or even if, you will use the information provided in your specific business or your personal life.
- As with every business venture, there’s inherent risk. You even stand a chance to lose money. So please use discretion when making a purchasing decision.
- All testimonials and case studies are collected from people who have had personal experience with our products or services, and they have each submitted their kind words willingly, and without direct financial payment or compensation.
- Some endorsements are sent from paying clients who have initially hired me for my consulting services, and may not necessarily or directly reflect the specific products showcased on this blog. Some have become friends or partners in various ventures.
- Some of my endorsements of other people’s products are the result of receiving a free review copy. In some cases, I may be an affiliate. However, I do not receive any direct financial compensation for making such endorsements, and I only provide an honest review, whether as an affiliate or not, if I feel the product has merit.
- I own Zyzyrgy, a holding company, operated by partners Heidi Van Valer and Roland Hall. Distributors of a variety of my training and multimedia products.
- I am the founder and Board member of Home Solutions Institute, Inc., a non profit 501(C)3 focused on helping seniors, the disabled, and our veterans find a business.
- The majority of my websites, including this blog, are hosted on a dedicated server at 1and1.com The majority of my domain names are registered through them as well, with which I am an authorized reseller.
- I am sent information products, training programs, books, and access to membership websites to review. I’ll only review the ones I like or the ones I feel you might benefit from.
- Ads on this blog are for my own products or products of which I am an affiliate or reseller of. I do not sell, rent, or exchange ads or text links from third-party advertisers on this blog.
- In the case of products of which I am an affiliate or reseller, they are selected because I purchased the products myself, I was involved in their creation, or I know their authors, and because I believe these products to be useful to my readers.
I will add more as I revise this blog post. It may be almost complete, but I believe this is a start in being open and candid so that you, dear reader, fully understand where I’m coming from and what’s involved when following any of my recommendations on this blog.
