Trust...

When you work with someone, they are full heartily putting their trust and money in you. If you violate that trust, it will take much longer for them to over come that, then the money that they lost.

Think of someone who is looking for a job. They go to a person they hardly know and ask for a job. When the person says no, they ask that they pass their resume around to others that may be interest. The question here is why would they do that?! They have no trust in you to go and pass your resume around.

Rather if you are looking for a job, take your resume to people that trust you, and ask them to give it to their friends. Look for trust and work within that range.
