Offline Gold On Steroids - Make Thousands Without Leaving Home

[ElaineBaker]

OMG I purchased this yesterday and it's absolutely brilliant.

I absolutely love building websites and blogs and this has certainly got me up off my butt to start an offline business.

Michael, at $7 you must be insane, this information is well worth at least $90 dollars.

Anybody who's thinking about getting it, don't think anymore you could really regret it.

Maybe all who have purchased and implemented it could possibly leave some feedback as to how they have got on.

I have set a target this week to get 5 customers, I know I can get at least 3 - but my problem was approaching them - this is so simple

Thanks sooooooooo much Michael and keep up the good work.

Yes I can see, only just finished reading the whole thread, that's brilliant news and I too am grateful to Michael for this.

Well i've already started by making the report - cor my head is buzzing just can't stop thinking about it.

*** FOR THOSE THAT HAVE READ AND USED THIS REPORT ****

Has anyone figured out a way to outsource the actual content placement on the websites that are setup for businesses?

We can outsource basically everything else, but once we get the money from a client to begin setting up a website...thats the only part of the business that I can see slowing us all down!

I then need to talk to them about what content is required for their chosen website, and then place the content within the websites so that they fit and look properly...

Is there a way to outsource this? Or would I basically need to get funds going enough to a point to actually bring on someone to handle the setting up of client information on websites? (maybe like a recent computer grad from a college etc.)

I just cant imagine getting 10 - 20 clients to agree to wanting a website, and then having to go through and collect the information for 20 websites, place the information into 20 different websites, and tweak/change 20 different sites until they look correct.

** ****
What about businesses that ask if we can create an online e-commerce / store etc?
Has anyone used this model to work with businesses that actually want to sell online?
(Obviously charging more?)
Is there any way to oursource such a task? I can see having to update/upload information on dozens or hundreds of products being a major pain in the A$$!
******

Thoughts?

Dexx,

I don't think Michael ever intended you to never meet with the customer. I have begun to go gangbusters with this model, and meeting with the customer allows me to upsell them the other services. Listen, I don't know the first thing about building a website, so I have outsourced everything. However, I can talk the talk and make the customer feel comfortable and that is what they want...a partner, not a salesperson. If they want something extra, (one customer did) I would tell him let me "work the numbers" and that I would get back to him. In my case, I just went online to price the options, marked them up so I could make a nice profit, and the customer gladly paid me.

I was a small business owner before the Real Estate Market crash and one thing that is for certain is that Small Business owners shop on price, but they ultimately want to do business with people they like. I absolutely love meeting with the customer because as I stated earlier, it gives me the option to make the upsell which locks in a nice continuous stream of cash. I simply don't want to have to make cold calls and this model allows me to do that. Plus, having 10-20 customers at the same time that want to go live is the perfect opportunity to hire a commission only sales person. In this job market, there are PLENTY of takers so if you experience this problem (too much business) there is an easy solution. Just get things rolling and you will see how easy this model is. Heck if I can do it (I can barely set up a WP blog!), anyone can! Good luck and keep us posted.

No no, you misunderstood me! I DO meet with clients, my issue is the outsourcing of the actually putting the business' CONTENT on the websites.

Basically I (or someone) needs to actually be regularly communicating with the business as to WHAT needs to go on the site, and then actually PUT the content UP on the site etc.

Do you outsource this task to someone currently since you aren't a big tech person?

Is this someone who works with you locally, or do you somehow outsource the task online to someone? What is the average cost to do this? (have someone work with the business to get their content put on their website)

This might include also installing / setting up the autoresponder code in their new website as well. (to truly keep us hands off SETTING IT UP)

Hope that helps! Thanks for the fast response tho!

[DukeNasty]

I help the clients write the content because I am pretty good at that. Plus it is pretty easy to find sites similar to that of your clients, choose the best information, and then rewrite the content to suit your customer's needs. At least that is how I do it. In terms of actually creating the site, I bid it out on the sites Michael mentioned. I have used elance before as well. Pricing really depends on the pages, but really the contract worker is really just cutting and pasting the content that I give them. In one instance, my client had photos, so we used them as well. In others, I went to Istockphotos and purchased photos for a $1 apiece so that is basically it for the content since I am using a template.

Now keep in mind, I just started this and only have a handful of clients, but in all instances, they think the "deal" I am giving them is fabulous, and I have always upsold them the higher base level website package. They are all chomping at the bit to "move up" to the social media package, so that will be another layer of income to add on top. I honestly think each customer I manage to land should on average yield me $500-$750 or better per month...plus each customer I have landed is already beginning to refer me their buddies as well because I offered them a "free" month for each customer that comes on board. We will see how this pans out though, but thus far it looks promising.

*** ANOTHER SIDE QUESTION ****

For those using this method, how do you handle setting up email addresses for the businesses?

I mean with the email marketing, if one of their customers visits the website, or receives an email from an autoresponder...chances are good eventually someone will want to reply/email a question to the business owner...

So should we setup like 5 email addresses for the businesses to use as communication channels for their customers?

Does anyone charge for this ability?

Hey Dexx.

If the business doesn't already have a "Branded" email address, then that is part of the package that I set up for them. They need at least one as a point of contact for their customers to contact them. By branded, I mean one that is attached to their web site address - not a Gmail account, not a Bellsouth.net account, not a hotmail account - nothing like that. If they already have an email, make sure it is appropriate - such as directed to a department (customer service, info, or whatever). People can have personal emails in the business, but we usually suggest keeping them off the web pages to reduce potential problems with SPAM.

Everything we do is about BRANDING their business - from their web site, to their marketing, to their emails, to any snail mail communcations, to any other type of communication. It's all about having a seamless look to everything that is done.

In fact, we do more for the company than just the web "stuff" - we're talking to them about an entire coordinated marketing strategy to incorporate all phases of their marketing using many of the same providers that they are currently using. That keeps those current providers from being threatened by us coming in.

Good luck with your work. It keeps us excited about what we do EVERY DAY.

Mate,

Just follow it step-by-step exactly
how it is explained in the report.

Any other additions or take aways
from the system can actually lessen
your success rate.

Take Care,

Michael Silvester

[Michael Silvester]

Hi Dex,

A really good questionaire and a good writer
can solve all those problems in one.

You make it sound like 10-20 clients is a problem

The marketing works...you can just stop marketing
until you are ontop of things. Or you can scale it up
with additional staff.

I also do the ecommerce website option but that
is quoted on a job by job basis.

Take Care,

Michael Silvester

[gotteeth]

Mike,

You're an absolute genius.

I was just talking to the coach of my 7 year old son's baseball team about this. I was just putting together ideas based on my experience but it wasn't complete and refined like what you're sharing.

Thank you!

Worth much more than you're charging.

Cheers!

[ElaineBaker]

Hi Michael

Just wanted to let you know that I have now set up my biz - all thanks to you and have clinched 2 deals since Monday just gone (day before yesterday) - and have 6 appointments made for next week.

Anyone thinking about this WSO - don't think about it - act now - it's only taken me a week to set up and I've already got 2 clients.

Thanks again Michael
Elaine

Elaine,

That is awesome! Curious though. Did you "set up your biz" by following the WSO to the letter with respect to the advertising methodology? My advertising didn't pay off like I thought it would, but my proactive business development efforts have. Trying to find the right balance to really ramp things up so any insight you can provide would be appreciated. Thanks and congratulations on your success!

Awesome Work Elaine! You are proof this works...all you have to do is take action and the money will come in. Keep at it...and you'll be able to retire early

(PS for those who haven't bought Michael's report yet - do you sense the excitement among those of us who have? This is HOT!).

PPS Oy Vay, I think this was the same site suggested earlier that DOESN'T meet the criteria...?

It looks to me as though it would work. Unless I'm missing something.

i.e. I didn't see anything contrary to Michael's guidelines.

Thanks for the link!

[Jimnopks]

Here is a list of merchant accounts compared.

Compare Online Payment Partners: PayPal, VeriSign, PSiGate, Electracash & Paradata

At first glance landmark looks best, but I found some negitive posts about the owner being the devil.

So then I checked authorize.net rip off and found just as many complaints.

Looks like they are all scumbags.

Hi Jim,

You need to re-read my report my friend...using an online
merchant is not the best way to go. You need a Direct Debit
Service.

Take Care,

Michael Silvester

[Jimnopks]

What is the difference Michael?

I did a search for Direct Debit Service and found paysimple.com which was mentioned by Darel.

I fail to see the difference.

Jim

[Michael Silvester]

Hi Jim,

I am not actually talking about paysimple.com I am talking
about the list of merchant account/online payment processors
that you provided. That list has services such as paypal and
others that are totally not suitable.

I have sent paysimple an email with a few questions to see
if they are 100% suitable. But to me they just look like an
online payment processor and not a direct debit company.

I'll be waiting for their reply to see if they are suited.

Take Care,

Michael Silvester

I called them and they are suited. Only thing is you need to have a business bank account and business license.

Surprising as it sounds, paysimple is one of our only real options in the States. They will do exactly what is needed.

[joshril]

Has anyone located any alternatives to PaySimple in the US?

[n00b]

Excellent WSO! I also got a response to my PM in literally 5 minutes. Couldn't be happier! (Unless Michael decided to offer up another WSO!)

[wezza]

Just bought the wso, looking forwards to reading it tomorrow as it is 1am. off to bed now! Thanks!

Hello Micheal,

I am in

Having a little trouble downloading and will send you a PM

Best Regards

[mentor4u]

Thanks Mike for this great report

$7 bucks is almost like free for all the info
you have provided.

And yes to approach new clients in the beginning is worth its weight in gold

Thanks
Don

[Jimian]

Ordered and received it no problem. Good approach right from the get-go. Will finish and email you if I have any questions.

[windycow]

I saw no response to the post concerning alternatives for Paysimple;are there? What
is the cost for setting this up to get clients? And what is the timeline once you finish
read this..until you sign up your first client (appro)? Thanks

[windycow]

What's the difference in marketing costs between this WSO and your Advanced 2.0 version? And the time frame difference of getting your first few clients? Cheers!

[ella2009]

Hi all,
I recently bought this WSO and wanted to get some updates from those of you who have been at it for a few months. Any thoughts?
What are people successfully using for a hosting co. and for a direct debit service in the US?
Thanks.

I've been implementing the method for 8 months and although the leads come in slowly, I have not converted a client.

Wondering if the nature of this plan attracts mainly penniless freebie-seekers in my area.

Hi Mate,

I have no idea, I dont know what his report is about.

But what I can say is this is my personal method that I have
