hi warriors,

i came across an offline product called Pizza Money by Gina Gray and thought it sounded cool. But before i decide to invest in it, would like to know if anyone has bought the product and if yes, tell me what their review of it is. Been burnt so many times in the past lol.

This is quite late-but I happened upon it just now, and happened to have picked up pizza money a few days ago. So if anyone is still interested-here's a review based on going through the course, and taking the first steps toward picking up checks. Keep in mind that I'm new at this.

I would say, like many products, this one is great if you work it. I would only recommend it to people that are either willing to pick up the phone and sell, or walk into a business and sell, or are very comfortable with hiring and managing commissioned salespeople. I will hire some, but only after I've learned to do it-I think not doing any of it might put you at a bit of a disadvantage in the management side.

Having said that, I don't feel like it's too hard to sell. But so far, to be honest, I've just yesterday got my first contract from a pizza store-and that sale is the easiest-because there is no cost to them, so saying it's an easy sell is largely conjecture on my part, based on a few conversations with managers and employees, that I had before I even had a deal with a pizza place. It's also based on Gina saying it's an easy sell and that she gets 50% of biz owners to say yes.

I do have high hopes of a couple enthusiastic managers I spoke to helping facilitate the sale with the owner. but I have yet to get a check from an owner-no money yet-it's only been three brief forays of pavement pounding. I expect that to change in the next couple days-but only because I'm willing to walk out, or get on the phone and make a sale.

I would say the course has a ton of nice strategies I'm finding useful, but I am working on my own sales approach, and not following scripts-(I kind of hate them-when I detect someone using them, it's a huge turn-off). I work out what I want to say by practice, noticing the effect I'm having, and rethinking/refining the approach as I go. I am using a brilliant bit of terminology she gave that I think helps a lot-just a short phrase to replace a "salesy" sounding term.

Here's an example of refining my approach as I go: Yesterday I called a pizza place where an employee asked me to leave a message for the manager to get back to me, and I tried explaining the program to him-along with the benefits. I decided right after I got off the phone that I made a mistake.

My adjustment is: next time I leave a message with a pizza employee, I will make it short-with one benefit, and no explanation. Something like: "tell her I am looking for two local pizza places that qualify for a community promotion I'm putting together. The pizza places are at the center of it. If you qualify, and are among the first to respond, your price will be zero. Past results indicate your business will be getting a nice boost."

That is just something I worked out to spark curiosity without giving it all away, and risking the employee botching the pitch.

She gave one suggestion about how to go in warm that I think is worth the price of the course. I might have thought of it eventually, but I didn't have to-and I didn't think of it right off the bat, so she probably increased the speed of completing my first campaign.

Given that the course is $97, and you stand to profit about 2K per campaign, if you are serious, I say get the course. I only got it after getting reassurance that the refund would happen very quickly if I decided it wasn't for me. Gina told me it would happen as fast as Paypal allows.

Anyway, if the course helps you increase the speed of your first campaign, it will have far more than paid for itself. But again, I really think you should be prepared to do some phoning, and in person selling.

At first I was going to do it all in person, but I wasted a lot of gas and time going from one pizza place to the next finding that the decision maker was not there, or the place didn't qualify. (She explains how to qualify them-very simple), or even in one case, that they had moved.

Once the deal is in hand, you can actually do a lot on foot, since almost any type of business is a prospect, so you can visit almost every biz-up one side and down the other.

So that's it-the usual advice-get it-only if you're prepared to take action.

Hope this helps anyone that might still be interested, months after asking for a review.
