Chris Sissons owns and operates the Market Together and the Market Together Blog websites. It is my policy to offer coaching services to local businesses and voluntary organisations and I hold all my customers and prospects in high regard. I will never do anything to deceive you, I will not spam you or spy on you and I will never share your information with any third-party. I’ve done my best to present all information on this site accurately and all the testimonials are real testimonials from real people.

Basically, I’m offering an honest business and I have nothing to hide or be ashamed of.

I will maintain the information you send via e-mail in accordance with applicable law.  I’m helped to do this by using Aweber, which automatically ensures my emails conform to legal and ethical standards.

CAN-SPAM Compliance

My site provides users the opportunity to opt-out of receiving communications from me by reading the unsubscribe instructions at the bottom of any e-mail they receive from us at anytime.
