Reasons for refunding products

Therefore today that your finally decided to purchase that product and can not wait to try it out, you have to find out that it does anything else but what you've expected. Don't worry, you still have a chance to take your money back with the following tips for getting an immediate product refund.

1. Wrong advertizement

"Get 10.000 hits to your internet site in 24 hours". Such seductive promises might sure make you wanna flip out your credit card immediately. But when you practice the methods or use the software and have to find out that those 10.000 hits might really result in 10, then this is a legitimate reason for requesting a refund. Unfortunately it's not always that easy. Many vendors get around such wrong advertising by stating in the fine print that these results cannot be guaranteed. Therefore always keep an eye on such statements and if you cannot believe what's advertised then search for product reviews using your favorite search engine.

2. Product outdated

Believe it or not, but I've seen products that were still advertised and happily took the money out of the customers' pockets but were totally outdated or did not work anymore. I once bought a product that could not be downloaded any longer but still had the sales page up and running, it even exposed the current date pointing the end of a special advancement. Every try to contact the creator of the software failed and after I read in a forum that I wasn't the only one not being able to download the software,I contacted the credit card processing company and got my money back.

3. Usability

not every software is closer to user as Windows (you got the joke, right?!), which can be frustrating if you want nothing more than use it immediately. For most complex software products there exist written tutorials that exactly describe how to use them and sometimes even video tutorials that make the product handling even easier.

If you've reached the product creator and still were non able to get a refund despite some true and good causes, not all hope is gone. Most marketplaces offer a refund guarantee for products that were sold through them (e. g. Clickbank offers its customers a general refund policy of 8 weeks after the product purchase, for a seller like PayDotCom you have to contact the credit card processor like Paypal which has a refund policy of 2 months).

It is always advised to clearly state the cause for your product refund and to keep a friendly communication style. Even if the product is not worth a single penny it doesn't make things easier when you insult the creator. Try to show that you've really trying to use the product in an good way, maybe attach some screenshots, include suggestions what could be better, etc. The product creator might loose you as a client but still can gain from your experience and will most of the time happily give you the refund.

Whatever you do, please be honest. It's just not good to purchase a product which you badly want and then asking a refund to take your money back but still continue to use the product. Most market places (Clickbank, PayDotCom) tolerate 2 or even more gives back, but after that you might not be able to purchase anything again through the specific company.

A Story of Joint Venture

In the summer of 1954, four hundred wealthy businessmen were invited to hear about a joint venture proposal. Hands were shaken, coffee was served and for the next few hours, behind closed doors, P & L statements expected the future of how this venture would play out.



History would show that this was one of the sweetest deals ever accessible in business and those that embraced this idea would make thousands of times their original investment ... all that joined the venture would make millions.



This was not a naive group of wet-behind-the ears dreamers, awestruck by the thought of sudden riches, or easily swayed by impression.



No, this was a hard-nosed bunch, used to to dealing with bankers and politicians.



Here were the captains of their industry, being offered the deal of a lifetime. Their reaction is what is fascinating. How many jumped at the deal?



How many of those original 400 had the foresight to run with this deal ... and beat out the competition?



As it turns out, exactly three.



The creator of this idea - ever the businessman - understood; "After all," he says, "all we were offering them was a name, a set of plans, and a dream!"



A name, a set of plans, and a dream... The deal was a simple one: $500 down and about $5 per day was all they had to pay for the rights to use a name and a set of plans ... to make the dream of a lifetime come true.



Who were this industrialist and what was he selling?



You may not recognize his name but you certainly know his company. Today, it is one of the most recognized brand names in the world.



Side Note: Within three years this company went public with a $3.9 million stock offering and suddenly, everyone wanted in on the deal.



Those that didn't jump on board wound up standing in a long line, waiting their turn.



Who was this guy?





Opportunity: "...Opportunity comes often, it knocks as often as you have an ear trained to hear it, an eye trained to see it, a hand trained to grasp it, and a head trained to use it."



This quote is from "Twenty Tips for Success" by Mr. Kemmons Wilson, founder Holiday Inn, America's Innkeeper



In 1951, Kemmons Wilson was on vacation with his family and became disgusted by the motels of the era that charged $2 extra for children, "We have five kid's, so our $6 room became a $16 room," he said. One year later, he opened his first Holiday Inn where children could stay for free and families were assured of consistently clean, safe, rooms. Very soon, Holiday Inn setup the first nationwide motel computer worries network and then, everyone wanted in on the deal.



"From that point on it wasn't a question of trying to sell franchises - it was a question of allocating them."



The important point [call it the secret] from this meeting?



Really, there are two important lessons. First, when the risk is small - don't hesitate. In this case; $500 for the use of the Holiday Inn name plus five cents per room per day - about $5 a day on a 100 room motel - was a pittance compared to what investors made on this deal.



But the biggest reason for Holiday Inns' success was a risk taker founder, backed by hard working no nonsense franchisees that were willing to invest millions in the first all over the country computer reservations network.



A centralized computer system was impressive that the rest of the lodging industry didn't have at the time. At that time the competition was a bunch of small independently owned roadside motels too small and scared to make the chief deal needed to win ... so they lost and the people that joined Mr. Wilson became very big winners.



So, the biggest [secret] from this meeting? When you are first to the market with a new technology backed by people that won't "give up", then don't be afraid to take a risk and go for it!
