The Rules of Professional Conduct
The MUST List: Non-Negotiable Behaviors
Â
1. Be Honest About Prices and Services
| Honest Approach | Dishonest Approach |
|---|---|
| “Our websites start at ₦50,000 for a basic 3-page site” | “I can get you a website for ₦20,000” (then deliver poor quality or add hidden fees) |
| “Social media management is ₦60,000/month” | “It’s ₦30,000… but there’s a ₦30,000 setup fee” |
| “This ebook is ₦2,000 with instant download” | “It’s free… but you need to pay ₦2,000 for ‘activation'” |
Why honesty wins: Dishonest affiliates get caught. Customers complain. Refunds happen. Commissions are clawed back. Your reputation is destroyed. Honest affiliates build referral networks that generate sales for years.
2. Deliver What You Promise
| Promise | Reality | Your Action |
|---|---|---|
| “Your website will be ready in 5 days” | MegaBizBooster standard is 7-10 days | Say 7-10 days, delight them with 5 |
| “You’ll rank on Google in 2 weeks” | SEO takes 1-3 months | Say “you’ll see progress in 30 days, full results in 90” |
| “I’ll send you the ebook immediately” | Send it within 1 hour | Under-promise, over-deliver |
The trust formula: Every kept promise = future sales. Every broken promise = lost customer forever.
Â
3. Respect Customer and Team Member Privacy
| Protected Information | You Must Never |
|---|---|
| Customer phone numbers | Sell to third parties, add to unrelated groups |
| Customer business details | Share with competitors, post publicly without permission |
| Team member earnings | Disclose to others without consent |
| Team member personal information | Share outside the team, use for personal gain |
| Payment and bank details | Access, view, or share under any circumstances |
GDPR and Nigerian data protection laws apply. Violations can result in legal action beyond MegaBizBooster penalties.
4. Follow Up on Leads Promptly
| Response Time | Customer Perception | Conversion Rate |
|---|---|---|
| Within 5 minutes | Professional, eager, reliable | 80%+ |
| Within 1 hour | Responsive, organized | 60% |
| Within 24 hours | Average, maybe busy | 40% |
| After 48 hours | Unprofessional, don’t care | 15% |
| Never | Dead lead | 0% |
Speed = respect = sales. Set phone notifications for MegaBizBooster inquiries. Respond before your competitor does.

The MUST NOT List: Career-Ending Behaviors
1. Create Fake Testimonials
| Fake Testimonial | Why It Destroys You |
|---|---|
| “John from Lagos says: ‘Best service ever!'” (John doesn’t exist) | When exposed, all your credibility vanishes |
| Stealing someone else’s review and changing the name | Copyright infringement, legal liability |
| Paying friends to write false reviews | Violates advertising laws, platform terms |
What to do instead: Ask real customers for reviews. Offer a small discount on future service for honest feedback. Document real results with screenshots and permission.
2. Promise Results We Cannot Guarantee
| Unrealistic Promise | The Reality | The Damage |
|---|---|---|
| “We’ll get you to #1 on Google in 1 week” | SEO takes time; no one guarantees rankings | Customer demands a refund, leaves a bad review |
| “This website will make you ₦1 million in a month” | Websites are tools; results depend on many factors | False advertising claim, brand damage |
| “Our social media will triple your sales” | Social media builds awareness; sales depend on product, pricing, and market | Customer feels deceived, churns quickly |
Safe promise framework: “Based on similar businesses, clients typically see [X result] within [Y timeframe]. Your specific results depend on [Z factors].”
3. Charge Customers Extra and Keep the Difference
| Scenario | What Happens |
|---|---|
| You tell customer website is ₦200,000, but charge ₦250,000 and keep ₦50,000 | Customer complains to MegaBizBooster, you are terminated, commissions forfeited, and possible legal action |
| You add “consulting fees” that are not approved by MegaBizBooster | Same result. All pricing must come from official sources. |
The only money you earn is your commission. Never invent fees, markups, or hidden charges.
Â
4. Recruit by Promising “Get Rich Quick” Schemes
| Toxic Promise | Why It Fails |
|---|---|
| “Join today, quit your job tomorrow” | Recruits join with false expectations, quit in a week, waste everyone’s time |
| “Make ₦500,000 in your first month with no effort” | Illegal in many jurisdictions. Violates consumer protection laws. |
| “Guaranteed income, no work required” | MegaBizBooster is not a lottery. It rewards effort. |
Honest recruitment: “This is a real business opportunity. You earn based on your sales and team performance. Top earners work consistently, follow the training, and build over time. Are you willing to put in the effort?”
5. Disrespect Competitors or Other Affiliates
| Bad Behavior | Consequence |
|---|---|
| “Other agencies are scams” | Legal defamation risk makes you look insecure |
| “That affiliate doesn’t know what they’re doing” | Divides the team, creates conflict, and management intervenes |
| Stealing another affiliate’s customer | Immediate termination, commission dispute, and reputation destruction |
The Disciplinary Ladder
| Violation Level | Examples | Consequence |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1: Minor | Late follow-up, minor pricing inconsistency, social media etiquette slip | Warning: mandatory retraining |
| Level 2: Moderate | Repeated customer complaints, unauthorized discounting, and privacy lapses | Suspension, commission hold, written warning |
| Level 3: Severe | Fake testimonials, false guarantees, fee manipulation, competitor attacks | Immediate termination, all commissions forfeited |
| Level 4: Criminal | Fraud, identity theft, embezzlement, systematic deception | Legal prosecution, permanent blacklisting |
