My 39 Day Offline Marketing Challenge

2 replies
Hello Fellow Warriors,

I've never made a post like this so please bear with me.

I've decided to give myself a 39-Day Offline Marketing Challenge on the Warrior Forum for the following reasons:

1. It will hold me accountable since I'll be posting what I've done every 1-2 days and the results of what I've done.

I'm embarrassed to admit that I'm 1 of those people who don't get very much accomplished each day (extremely lazy), which is pathetic and shameful since I don't work (my boyfriend supports me ).

2. To get feedback, advice, opinions, etc. from other Warriors who see this post.

3. To force myself to stick with and commit to 1 method instead of jumping from method-to-method.

What inspired me to do this was enrolling in Keith Gibbs Hyper-Success Program (http://www.warriorforum.com/warrior-...sfcmC4OSV7d1EL).

I have a goal of reaching $10K by May 19th 2011 and I'm starting from scratch; so that gives me 39 days.

Even if I only make $5K in this timeframe I'll be happy .

My chosen strategy is going to be to rank sites on the first page of Google for local keywords and sell the sites for $1,000-$1,500 to local businesses and then charge $40-$100 (haven't decided yet) per month for hosting and to maintain the site for them.

I know some may be thinking what if I do all that work and can't sell the site; if I can't worst case scenario I can either rent/lease the site out or capture leads and sell the leads to local businesses.

I think there are quite a few monetization options for ranking a site on the first page of Google for local keywords that get enough targeted traffic so I don't really think I can lose .

After bouncing around from many different methods, mainly online methods, this is a strategy that I really want to pursue to see if it can really work for me.

At first I think I'll be doing everything myself...but I might decide to outsource certain things, haven't quite decided yet.

Tomorrow I'll be buying the domain names and start creating the content for 1 site.

I think I'll be ranking 1 complete site at a time as opposed to trying to create content for multiple sites at the same time and ranking them at the same time.

But I'm sure there will be a few times where I'll be embarrassed to report that all I did was waste time on certain days but I'm really going to try to keep that to a minimum.

My 2 biggest concerns as far as getting the work done will be the backlinking to get the site to the first page of Google (I get discouraged too easily when I don't see fast results), and the contacting local businesses (this part is a bit scary to me ).

And if I'm being completely honest (lol), staying on top of the content creation might be an issue since I am ridiculously lazy .

However, I'm going to for a change be putting in the work no matter what even if I have to assign my boyfriend the job of being taskmaster and making me do my work :p.

But I'm going for this so wish me luck everyone .

    Well I can comfort you by saying this:

    Research everything before going in. Also companies are hurting bad right now, mostly all of them are looking to get more business but are over whelmed by false promises and no results. If your lead gen site is getting leads and you can prove it they will snap up that site.

    Just here to see the shenanigans.
