Word of mouth is increasingly the only source I trust for product recommendations. Once advertisers figure this out I imagine they'll start sponsoring my acquaintances to lie to me about their products in person and I'll have to narrow the field even further.
- feet 4y agoI think this is why influencers on social media are a thing

- deadbolt 4y agoIf my friend referred a dentist to me just for $50 without mentioning that they were only doing it for the incentive, we wouldn't be friends much longer.
- registeredcorn 4y agoThat's one of the things that's confused me about those sorts of programs. Is the friend supposed to mention that they are getting paid for their recommendation? It's such a weird thing.
- wlesieutre 4y agoI'd feel better about it in that case, yeah. Personally have referred somebody to Mint Mobile and they were aware I got a discount out of it.
