Thank you for taking the time to read about why I include affiliate links. On this page, I wanted to share more about the type of products I am advertising and how I choose them. After all, my entire brand is about transparency.

Every product you see on my website that contains an affiliate link has been researched to the best of my ability to dig up any details or controversies about the products. This alone separates me from almost 100% of every affiliate out there. Every time I searched for a product in the coffee, chocolate, or tea industry, I trusted far too many affiliates and was disappointed with every result.

It’s common knowledge most affiliates and influencers take money from anyone and have zero morals about pushing low quality products that can adversely affect your health. This can be attributed to either malice or ignorance. Either the affiliate doesn’t know enough about the product but still wants to sell it, or they do know it’s a bad quality product but just want to make money and care little about consequences.

To be clear, I’d rather not even have a website or social media presence than to take money from bad actors in the industry, of which there’s an abundance. I’ll close my account and website before I push potentially known toxins on anyone. I can’t live with that on my conscience, but I know many affiliates can and do with a smile.

I hope that you will support me trying to support you and you’ll make informed purchases through my affiliate links so I can continue to dedicate time and money back into this project. Currently, I’m making nothing on it and have spent a lot of time and money to get this project started. Unfortunately, since it hasn’t made money, I cannot buy many of the products or tools that I would like to test so you can further make informed purchasing decisions. Before all else, any money made via my affiliate links will go 100% back into my website and products to expand my service.

I appreciate you visiting my website, reading my content, and genuinely hope you gain some valuable insight about products that are otherwise incredibly exploitative of both the consumer and the farmers, so that we can support ethical practices and build up the right companies and business owners. Thank you again for visiting my website and I hope this disclosure answers any questions you have about why I include affiliate links.

Be well!
