The professional counselor's ethical decision making model is based on the "Practitioner's Guide to Ethical Decision Making" to ensure that her/his professional services rests on a sound and ethical decision making process.
I am not a professional counselor.
Rather, I am an advisor and coach to aspiring Web entrepreneurs.
My intent and purpose is to ensure that those who seek my advice are...
presented with all the verifiable information necessary
to arrive at an informed decision about whether or not Web entrepreneurship is going to solve their problem and/or meet their expectations.
The professional counselor's fees are a reasonable compensation for their professional services and for the benefits that their clients gain from the counseling.
Reasonable fees are ethical when the advice and coaching are beneficial to the client.

Guiding Moral Principles

To instill the notion of mutual trust as the foundation upon which relationship with clients must be built. This applies first and foremost to the relationship with my own clients.

I commit myself to ensuring that my clients gain from following my advice and personal coaching. Commensurate with their degree of personal commitment, my clients' gains are not only durable but grow over time by design.
I commit myself to never promise results that are beyond my clients ability to obtain by following my advice and the proposed "Action Guide" as directed.
I only recommend products and services that I use myself and that I know to be best-of-breed. For instance...
