Just try promoting or selling things that are issue free

[Accardo]

It's not about selling a reputable product, there're bad days, and good times in every business, think of people who advised their loved ones to purchase bitcoin in 2021 bull run at 50k per btc, and the same person watched it drop down to 20k threshold in less than a year, a high marginal loss like this would bring no love for you and for bitcoin when that loved one gets to think about it. This is an instance, but it's just how every other business or products works.

Basically maintaining product quality is one of the keys to success in business, consumers will know for themselves about how good your product is and this is the reason why products with poor quality are not very saleable in the market, there are even some of them who eventually go bankrupt because of the quality of their products that can not compete with competitors, this concerns all areas of business, one thing I will say that "one bad can erase a thousand good", imagine if for example you sell or promote something that can harm customers then it would be very easy for you to go bankrupt because of declining reputation and trust.

[Felicity_Tide]

Ofcourse, we know it's not going to be easy to know for sure or have detailed knowledge about the quality of what we sell or promote , but we can use the little we know especially as it relates to potential harm to make amend rather than giving excuses why things should remain the way they are, which most likely are for selfish reasons, such as:  I have bills to pay, I need to feed my family, I need to survive, etc. Is it OK to survive by harming, cheating, deceiving other people? What makes those who do such things different from scammers or thieves who cheat and rob others to survive?

I was able to understand this very first part of the writeup, while I wasn't entirely sure of what the second one was all about.
Well, personally I have always been a supporter of promoting items we consume/make use of. Mind you, there's a difference between promoting/selling an item that you haven't used, and promoting/selling an item that you know is bad for others. Unfortunately, we live in a society where some desperate individuals never hesitate to sell harmful items to others. This is entirely different from when the supposed seller has never tried it before.

I'm of the opinion that there are no valid excuses for committing such acts. In fact, I think it's a crime to sell to others what you wouldn't consume yourself because of how unsafe it is. Unfortunately, most developing countries struggle to checkmate things like this, which has resulted in too many fake and harmful products flooding their market.

The thing is that not everyone is the same. Some people have human sympathy, and some don't have a single bit of sympathy for their fellow humans. Everything to them is how they will make money, at the risk of their fellow humans health, not minding the reproach.

Many times, I get scared of the things we consume in our country because there are a whole lot of fake things being manufactured as original things. All these things are consumed daily, and there's no way you can avoid using them. What you will be praying for is for you and your family not to be unlucky enough to buy fake products to be using it as original products

The evaluation that the unscrupulous businessmen with a profit motive forgoing the physical safety of countless people is correct. The fake product counterfeit has entered the normal life necessitating the society to have an extraordinary anxiety about it. But, if we give up in our prayer life, then we are setting ourselves up for greater losses. Logical solution is that channels of distribution would have to be carefully monitored and official channels like trusted distributors would have to be promoted and authority permits issued and cancelled as soon as the price of goods plummets, which means dependence on counterfeit and disastrous products.

I think that it's a vague comparison about selling stuff and buying bitcoin as it is investing. There's a huge difference for these two when we are trying to make a sale and promote products than to advise people what to buy for their investments. But I do agree about that there will be good/bad times so if we're going to put that in general idea about there will be good times for product sellers and with the investors, there's also the opposite of it. And on how we're going to bring that situation defines on how good we are in handling if we're in that shoe. And what important thing of what OP is trying to bring up is about you as an honest person wholly.

This has becomes necessary at this time Bitcoiners are working hard to further develop/grow a circular economy where products/services will be exchanged or swapped for bitcoins. There probably won't be government in charge to regulate things, but we could ensure a high degree of quality by including features like evidence-based reputation system, evidence-based product reviews, trustlessness to check and balance one another otherwise very few things will be safe for consumption.

There will always be bad actors whether we like it or not.
However, people who do their homework know that most bitcoin communities are built on trust and very strong principles that is why it has continued to thrive despite no government control or censorship.If you go to the right quarters you will get the safety of using bitcoin but if you try to play smart and go to the wrong quick or shortcut corners you’ll lose your bitcoin. Bitcoin is still as safe as can be but it just depends on the diligence of whoever’s holding it.

Ofcourse, we know it's not going to be easy to know for sure or have detailed knowledge about the quality of what we sell or promote ,

This is easy to determine if we manufacture the product or service we are promoting ourselves. After all, who knows a product better than the person who makes it?

but we can use the little we know especially as it relates to potential harm to make amend rather than giving excuses why things should remain the way they are, which most likely are for selfish reasons, such as:  I have bills to pay, I need to feed my family, I need to survive, etc.

So, are you personally prepared to lose clients by pointing out the flaws of the product you’re promoting? It’s always easy enough to say that - especially on a full stomach.

Is it OK to survive by harming, cheating, deceiving other people?

It is unacceptable, yet it happens everywhere. For the sake of their own survival, people are willing to disregard the survival of others.

What makes those who do such things different from scammers or thieves who cheat and rob others to survive?

There is no difference. Except that they do it with a smile on their lips. Which makes it doubly unforgivable.

Do you suppose that this "circular economy market" will be different - a better version where everything is honest and free of deception? Believe me, people will always remain the same as they have always been, regardless of the "financial" tool used in their commercial dealings.

It is not OK to survive by harming because you will get the same in the future or that thing will comes to your child. If you sell goods, you can asking for review from your customer so you will know you need to fix, modify or even remove it. That help you improves your goods to be better and also know what customers need.

Promoting or selling will have some issues and if you aware of that, you will try to gives the best for your customers. If your customers satisfy, they will recommend friends to try.

Things are spread across the internet in a manner that little control is there over what is available and has a purpose vs no purpose.

The people who are using bitcoin and other services need to learn to look beyond what is given to them, analyze whether a product is actually useful and whether the company showing its revenue is lying about anything, because these are very common things and companies do them to keep themselves in business while the customer suffers.

Often things can be obtained for low cost, quality issues will be there but if it is good enough then surely one should go for the less costly methods.

Those individuals who sells fake products in the market that can cause chronic diseases just in the name to survive are evil and they aren't different from scammers, because if they have the opportunity to scam someone they we gladly do it without a remorse. There are a lot of millionaires and billionaires that has made a lot of people to go down with cancer or chronic kidney disease with their products and they knew about it but they don't give a damn since it's not their loved ones that are affected, so people should examine what they eat or apply to their bodies because a lot of fake products are in the market. However, it's not the duty of bitcoiners to determine products that should be in the market, every country have the body that regulate and control products that is being sold in the market. So you should call on the body or agency responsible in regulating and controlling products in your country to up their game and make sure only original products that won't cause health issues to people to be sold in the market.

[Ab de villiers]

The value of a business and product cannot be determined by looking at the present only. Ordinary people give importance to something when it first becomes famous or expensive. In fact, those people are good who understand its origin before time and are in its original state. There is nothing in the price that is available to form an opinion about it, first understand the thing and benefit its future. She cannot move forward in this business only in the present state with her own and optional abilities, but the contemporary should think that a common buyer and a wise investor make a difference in the business.

Check your writing there's some mistakes however I understand what you are saying.
When you sell fake product to people and they get sick or die because of the product karma will actually visit you, some people think that they can eat their cake and have it back, a lot of people that are going through some bad times right now is because of what they have done in the past to other people, I'm not saying everyone.
It is very wrong for you to sell something that you know will be very bad or dangerous to the health of people just because you want to make money.
Government agency should always check products too.

Is it OK to survive by harming, cheating, deceiving other people? What makes those who do such things different from scammers or thieves who cheat and rob others to survive?

I think we have lost the art of putting ourselves in others shoes because if it were you, would want to be in that situation where you have been scammed? I don't think so, I think we need to put ourselves in those situations before we do certain things, especially when you're selling something to someone online, how you treat that customer might leave a positive review and that "more money" will eventually come, if not anything but just recommendations.

[Jubilee58]

It is apparent that many business men doesn't look for reputation any longer, their interest remains how they will make money from the product they sell or promote understanding that such product lacks good quality. As a business man or a promoter of any niche, going along with fake products will hinder the success, and growth of your business, and eventually dent your reputation. Some times selling fake or inferior goods can even land someone in trouble. For instance if you promise to supply someone a good product, and you end up supplying fake product, the person can make trouble with you, either return the fake product, and even go as far as getting you arrested.
People are really doing awful things so that they can survive, but such thing can only last for sometime, and not all the time.

[348Judah]

It is good and also important that we should sell a reliable product and have their confidence in what we are selling as well, this is where there is always a need for guarantee in everything we are buying or selling for a company, don't go into giving people assurance or confidence in what you cannot defend yourself or stand in gap to replace for them in case of any challenges the face at the cause of using the item except you have a direct vouch over it from the producers.

I’m wondering how difficult it is for merchants to not know the quality of the products they put out for sale. When you go into a buying and selling business, you’re in there with all level of professionalism about the job. You ought to have an eye for the product you’re selling to the public either as a retailer or a producer. It’s a trustee business whereby, you are charged with the duties of giving your customers the very best they deserve in other to retain their loyalty to the brand.

How do you check for qualities;
Firstly, you’ve got to note their trademark and other markers for the product
You ought to verify digital codes if any
You have to ensure you’re buying from official or recognized channels

All these do help to ensure you don’t end up selling inferior products in place of a more quality one.
Understandably, there are customers that can’t afford the original or best quality but would prefer something inferior but just as good for an affordable price but, you would be sure to make sure they know that too and it shouldn’t come at the cost of any harm to health.

I agree with you. Many people suffer long term losses for temporary gains. Because when someone starts a business, they do not invest such a large amount of money for short-term profit. So, before making any decision must be responsible. If the reputation is damaged any business  then people will not want to buy the products of that business institution anymore. Then ultimately the business will have to be closed. And if the quality of the product is good, it benefits people, then people will be more interested in buying that product.

We often see that some people buy bad products to save money. But when they do not get the benefit of it, then they buy a good product again by paying more money and start using it. Ultimately, people always move towards good things.

So, a businessman or investor should think about how his product can benefit people, so that customers feel comfortable using the products of his company. Only then will that person be able to improve his business.

This is not a businessman mindset, so they are not a real business man, because a real ones are visionaries. They think of a long term and consistent profit, and selling quality products are the first priority with reasonable prices, then good customer service.
Those people who risks their business by selling fake or counterfeit copies aren't gonna last. They are just trying to make wealth overnight by deceiving buyers. Well, there won't gonna be any repeat buyers in this kind of business.

[Lontor]

There are some cases where resellers have no clue about what they are selling to people, if it's safe to use ot not they don't care, they just want to make some profits, what I can advice on this is for everyone to always look into products very well before they start selling.

When damages is done the court wouldn't take your side for selling products that are harming people, you won't be free for not knowing after the damage is done, take your time to do research especially when the product is consumables or something like skin care.

I know that there are some people who are wicked in and out, they even intentionally came up with fake products that are harmful to the health and they still sell it to make money,  I can't count how many fake wine factories that's been detected in my country alone.

Basically, selling products of high quality and standard is one good way to sustain a business. Customers are very picky about the products they use. The business owner will have to give quality products at an affordable price or sell inferior products at a low price. The option to sell quality products at an affordable price is highly appreciated because that is a strategy that has worked for many businesses, even if sometimes quality products are expensive to buy.
