How would you approach local business owners regarding copywriting services?
I've only really talked to a few business owners that I personally know in the area, but I've been thinking of reaching out to others.
As the title of this post implies, my question... is how would you go about doing such a thing?
I had an idea of typing up a letter and mailing it directly to them, but I'm debating whether or not it would be more beneficial to approach them in person.
Personally, I would much rather write one letter (modified where necessary) and mail it out all in one go.
I don't mind personally approaching or even calling, but it just seems more efficient to go the mail route.
As far as the letter goes, I've been told that it is better not to try to sell your services directly (obviously)...to not bother to try and educate a market.
So what would you feel the best way to go about it is?
Once I have my letter together, I'm thinking about going the "lumpy" route.
It may be lame, it may not... but I'm thinking about picking up a 50-count package of that newer Starbucks instant coffee and placing one in each letter.
Perhaps even leading things off, based on that:
"Let's have coffee..." or "You've been working hard. Kick back for a few minutes, enjoy a cup of coffee on me and..."
That wouldn't necessarily be a headline, but you get the idea.
Just trying to get more things going for when I get done with who I'm currently working with, since I'm pretty much just starting out.
What do you think?
