Support & Services

 

  • These Ratings and Reviews are done voluntarily, for free, and the basic results of which are available to the general public through this website at no charge. There is, however, a nominal fee for a detailed report that goes beyond the general information provided on this site.

    It is relevant to mention that, while I am always open for suggestions for places/products/services/companies to rate/review, if travel to these locations is a condition, it will cost time and money. The reason I may not pursue a recommendation may simply be a practical matter of resources. It is also why it is so important to have reader support.

    I do not take money or fee gifts from places/events/products/services/companies in exchange for a public rating or review. If you are place/event/product/service/company, please do not send me anything for free or give me any type of monetary credit toward a product or service – it will not buy my public rating, review, or loyalty and it will preclude you from consideration.

  • You can contract my services either as a consultant or as a “secret shopper” to work privately to learn ways to improve a menu/services. To learn more, along with applicable rates, please contact me.

  • Support comes through:

    • Shopping on my sister website’s Retail Therapy page or Rated Eats Marketplace.

    • Clicking on hyperlinks and utilizing related services, if applicable.

    • Purchasing products through my site (see disclaimers for more information).

    • Hiring my services as listed on this site as it relates to ratings or by way of Nutritional Therapy Services found here.

    • Purchasing reports/other published work.

    • Following, liking, sharing, and inviting others to join my posts on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, Alignable, Pinterest, Linktree, YouTube, TikTok.

    • Encourage friends to visit my accounts, recommend my services, and share how my efforts have helped you.

    • Donate. If you appreciate my efforts, believe in my work, and/or have benefitted in some way, I ask you to please make a donation. I can’t stand pop-ups or ads (especially those annoying unpredictable ones) on my feed. To keep my websites free of the noise, please consider setting up a recurring donation, especially if you’ve visited either of my sites, used my services on more than one occasion, or benefit from the free content I provide on social media.

      You can also donate money to be applied directly to the expenses of a meal/encounter that would potentially be reviewed. However, there must not be any affiliation with the establishment/event so as not to create even the hint of a bias.

    • Pray. Most of all, your prayers would be appreciated. They are more valuable than gold and will help me to maintain the ultimate goal to live a life of J.O.Y. (Jesus first, Others second, and Yourself last).

    If, after all of these ideas, if you’re STILL looking for ways to support my efforts, you can always check out my sister site for more inspiration.

    Thank you and God bless you!
