TSS021 - Unethical Business. Don't fall into the same trap I did


Listen Later

There are a lot of unethical business owners out there.

In this episode, I'm talking about an experience that I am currently going through with an IT company in Neutral Bay, Sydney, who have proven themselves to be not only unprofessional, but also straight up destructive to my business and some of my clients.

The reason I share this story is so that I can hopefully help many of you NOT get into the same situation yourselves, because at the end of the day, it was completely avoidable and it's caused a ridiculous amount much unnecessary grief.

The key takeaway's from this podcast are:

  • Don't go into business with someone, just because they're mates.
  • Always insist on terms and conditions.
  • Always have a contract in place.
  • Stand up for what you believe.
  • Go legal if you have to.

This scenario is not yet over, so I'll keep you posted on proceedings as they update.
