Avoid These Common Marketing Scams

 Marketing scams are on the rise and it’s important to be aware of these common schemes. We recently heard about Paul Mccarthy Scam, a small business owner who was taken advantage of by one of these marketing scams. Knowing what to watch out for can help you protect yourself from falling prey to similar cons.

First, be wary of any offer that guarantees success in a very short period of time. Any company or individual offering overnight success should be avoided as it is most likely too good to be true. Second, watch out for companies that promise drastic results without mentioning how they will achieve them; this could mean that the strategies used are unethical or illegal. Finally, never pay full price up front for any services; reputable businesses will often provide an initial consultation free of charge so you can get a sense of their work before making any commitments.
