Have you ever dealt with someone acting in bad faith? How did you handle it?
This week I believe a partner of Visible’s is acting in bad faith. Nothing illegal but what I would consider bad business. I’ve sent them an email outlining my concerns and have yet to hear back. I could…
- Put them on blast online. This might feel good for a minute but will likely not solve the problem. I could also be seen as acting in bad faith.
- Go the legal route. That sounds expensive and likely will not solve my problem.
- Ignore it.
I’d love to hear any of your experiences and outcomes that you feel comfortable sharing. I will definitely follow up when I feel more comfortable doing so as well.
