Whilst it would be nice, the answer is NO. I’ve been asked this several times, and whilst each time we’ve worked together I would have earned considerably more if I had worked on a % of growth commission, the simple fact is, it ceases to be ethical.
I know, that over the years, I’ve invested hundreds of thousands of pounds, and thousands of hours on both my own Personal Professional Development, and that of our #ADDAZERO Methodology. And, having now delivered this into more than 8,000 Businesses, know the impact is has on both business, and business owner. In fact, over the same period of time, we’ve rarely seen any business invest more than 10% of the ROI it delivers to them, not just that year, but every year. And, on this basis, we could set far higher fees for these life changing strategies.
However, what I can’t determine (or stake my reputation on) is your commitment. Your willingness to do what is needed. To do the work, implement all we share and see it through. I’ve done ALL the ‘heavy lifting’ in my business and created the #ADDAZERO methodology which ‘eases’ the heavy lifting you’ve got to do by some margin. But, your business, is your business, and your success summit, your utopia is…well, yours.
It would simply be unethical, for me to receive a commission for the work you need to do in implementing what we share. Furthermore, how could I act as your coach, guide, mentor if it directly affected my reward for doing so. To do so, would cross the boundaries of impartiality and as such break the client / coach boundaries and so not something I’d ever consider.
Certainly, as an Ambassador for B1G1 (The Global Giving Community) if you feel our fee has been insufficient compensation for the added value #ADDAZERO brings to you and your family, feel free to donate through us to a Global good cause. Or consider donating to our annual charity of choice. But, I cannot, nor shall not, work on anything other than a fixed free basis.
I’ve invested heavily in my professional development, that you only to invest a fraction of that to benefit from all I have learned, experienced, designed and developed. The rest, as they say; is all yours.
