Free Report From Me - 3 Sure Fire Offline Money Makers

I have read your entire document and really likes it. I am going to share it with my friends. Let's see their opinion.

Hi Nick,

Very good report. Strategies in there that I will use myself!

Explained in detail for the novice IMer. Much appreciated.

Good to see you back on the forum.

Hey brother! Thanks for the free report! As John said, paying it forward!

Good stuff...I will pass on the CL stuff but like the LinkedIn and fishbowl idea. Thanks !!!

Nick, great report and I will be implimenting one or two of your ideas for sure.

Thanks for sharing,

Martin

Great little report for shaking off the competition on classifieds. I was too late for the mobile webinar... will there be a replay?

Great little report. I love these ideas and I'm going to implement the fishbowl idea tomorrow!

Thanks, Nick

Hey Nick,

Nice share, thanks for giving back.

One caution on the fishbowl idea... make sure you define what the prize will actually entail. Sometimes the "give 'em an inch and they'll take a mile" thing kicks in.

As long as the offliner defines what that prize is, they should be good to go, you just don't want to get backed into a corner.

If I may, a couple other tips to compliment your fine report:

1) Make the prize good, but be ready to suggest other things that would HELP the business that wins (look at their current site or analyze their biz a little) and UPSELL them to add those features/pages/whatever to their prize

2) The follow-ups you suggest (for the non-winners) are gold. This kind of technique (IMHO) is only worth while if you are actually GOING to follow up with those leads - I've heard of people running the contest, delivering the freebie and never chasing the leads - DOH!

3) Realize that many of these leads will not be the proper decision maker. Lots of them will be a sales person out entertaining a prospect themselves or just a freebie seeker. Do NOT let that get you down - try to reach the decision maker through that contact and if no joy, move on! There are millions of small business out there. :-)

Before contacting any of those leads, I would look at their biz card, visit their web site and do some basic searching to see who their competition is and what those web sites look like/features they have.

For example, if a person's card is from a furniture store, let's call it "Big Furniture".

Visit the Big Furniture web site.

• Is it professional?
• Does it work in multiple browsers?
• Is it current? (check the copyright date)
• Anything else you can find to suggest that would improve their site?

Then search for furniture stores in that city. Hit a couple web sites for those results.

• Do they look better than Big Furniture's web site?
• Do they have features that would benefit Big Furniture's site?
• If you can do SEO, do other sites outrank Big Furniture's site?
• Do they have a Google+ page?

The key to these cold leads is understanding their weaknesses, pre-qualifying and having a bit of a thick skin.


Sorry to run on Nick, great report and thanks again for the share!


All success,


Gary
