Information as promotion: let's face facts, the vast majority of website visitors are jaded and cynical and hypersensitive to unscrupulous online businesses. Most of your Web-audience puts you right next to politicians and used car salesman in the trust department.

Present your offer using real people delivering a well crafted message that reflects your company persona and inspires confidence rather than puts out danger signals.
