Offline Gold Meets The 4 Hour Work Week!

[MarkR]

Russ,

Sounds like great stuff.

Couple questions.

If someone were very good with website design, HTML, and the technical side, would that significantly speed of the 40 hour timetable or not?

It's been almost a month since you started this thread. I'm wondering if you or anyone that has bought this has implemented it and has any updates on the number of clients, amount revenue brought in, etc.?

Russ,

I feel like I am running around like a headless chicken. I have a FULL TIME J.O.B. (just over broke) and don't want to quit before I make at least 5K a month.

I am gobbling up all the OG, like Lesley says. Have you gotten anyone to ask for a refund yet? I'd hate to be the first one. I've already invested $200 in this niche*, and have only spoken two 2 business owners who blew me off. (and they were acquaintances) (see blog link for some details)

I am still very excited about that, but now it seems your pdf will discourage me, or enlighten me. I am frightened. You should see my whiteboard!

(2 days ago, tip of the iceberg)

* $30 on business cards, $100 on domain & 1 yr hosting, $20/mo for Aweber, $50 on WSO's

I will buy, but please be kind if I ask for a refund.

Hi Mark,

1. your technical expertise can speed things up. Where you might get held back is in making everything perfect and not just good enough (that is where I am at).

2. I don't want to talk specific revenue - let's just say the site is 90% where I want it to be physically and 5% there revenue wise. I am ok with this because I am working on some JV's within my niche that should let me reach my goal (I have another month).

Cheers,

Russ

Cool post Redmatrix...

I would say that my report is paradigm shift away from the traditional Offline Gold. It will not supplement your efforts if you are doing the regular Offline Gold as it is totally different.

That being said, it is a viable method where no cold calling is involved etc.

BTW - because I like to diversify, I am doing both regular Offline Gold and the Offline Gold Niche Strategy. I have to tell you that if you saw 2 prospects and you were blown off, that is nothing new. You need to see many more prospects.

Regarding refunds - I estimate my refund rate to be at 3-4% (I haven't calculated it). Of these, 99% have been because people weren't prepared to deal with the paradigm shift (that is it is different in kind to what they were already doing). This is a respectable refund rate and I do not begrudge adding you to the list if you feel the report was not worth your $17.

BTW - stop making pretty whiteboards and posting pictures of it and go see some prospects

Fair enough.

At 3 in the morning? I must remember not to come in to the WSO area. It's bad for my wallet! (but is it good for business?)

Russ,
You definitely have piqued my curiosity regarding what your method involves. Although I am a bit confused by your above post...you say it doesn't involve "cold calling", yet you told the person above to "go see some prospects" (which sounds a lot like cold calling). Am I missing something?

Also, how is this different from Shaun O'Reilly's method which involves (from what i understand) developing an online presence as a consultant to niche businesses (he posted a lot about this in the Cash Cow thread, and like you, emphasized that his clients are worldwide). This sounds very similar....

Thanks for any clarification!

[RedMatrix]

Cali, I haven't actually purchased yet. He was referring to my current offline activities.

Pick on side of the fence, get off it and go, go, go!

I am not suggesting that you need to buy my WSO
just whatever method you choose, focus and
take action!

Regarding Redmatrix - it sounds like he doesn't need my WSO, he just needs to ramp up what he is already doing which was cold calling. I don't advocate cold calling but if he has already started that perhaps he should focus on that. Just a thought.

It would be disingenuous to say that Shaun's work has not influenced me. However, my method has a twist that is very different to Shaun's and in my opinion is a better business model.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks,


Russ

Howdy,

Reading the thread, you really get to know this guy Russ. I for one really respect your integrity here, Russ.

Lord knows I have a lot of irons in the fire, but Sundays tend to be more relaxed - allowing for a refuge from the hectic week at my day job (which I love) - and allow for new ideas and strategies to be explored.

Just snagged your report, and am off with a nice cup of coffee and a comfy chair to digest this information.

Life is Good! Cheers!

Hi Russ

I've bought the report and I like what I've read. This makes much more sense as a way of getting customers when the other ways have not been so successful, for me anyway. Thanks! I shall reread and see how I can put this into practice, building on what I've done already. Worth the $17 :-).

Hey Russ,

Just read your great report ....... loved it.

Well laid out & straightforward to implement.

First time I'd heard your copywriting "tip" , but it's SO simple & makes great sense.

This really combines the best of both worlds & a really great "hands off" (eventually) system.

Glad you shared this with us.

Thanks

Hi, Russ.

I have 2 questions:

1, Will your method work in non-english speaking country?

2, If I don't know HTML and Java script, can I still use your method to make money? If the answer is yes, then how big a problem it is?

Thanks

1. You can market any where in the world so you are not limited to a non-english speaking country but the methods should work there (I have not done business in a non-english speaking country so I can't say for sure).

2. I don't know javascript either. In reality you will need a website but you could use a blog or outsource the design.

I hope that answers your questions.

Thanks,

Russ

I purchased Russ's $17 WSO, devoured it quickly and then read it for content a second time to make sure I didn't mis-read or misunderstand anything.

Let me begin by saying this system is terrifically simple, easily implemented, and certainly powerful for someone that either is not comfortable working with people face to face or wishes to work only a few hours a week from anywhere in the world. This business model is unbelievably simple - yet powerful. I would highly recommend it to anyone wanting to make good (translated REALLY GOOD) money working with Offline customers without the headaches associated with the typical customer service model. I can honestly say this is one of the slickest business models I've seen lately - and I examine a lot of business models to see what I can learn from them.

Although this business model doesn't fit with my personality or my chosen business model, I can give an honest opinion that it CAN and WILL work for someone that wants to put the work and time into building it this way. Being in sales (translated "face to face" sales) for over 13 years before entering into this IM world, I thrive on the constant "day to day" interaction with other people. However, if that's not you, BUY THIS WSO!!!! You will not be sorry. It is worth every dime that Russ is asking and even more. In fact, once you are making good money doing it this way, don't forget to send Russ a big TKU and maybe even buy him a beer.

Thanks Russ for an excellent offering. I'm sure many people will run with this and make tons of money with the methods you've outlined. I just hope I don't end up competing with them for a piece of business because it will make my job much harder to do.

Cheers

Just bought it Russ.

Thanks.

Thanks Russ for this great report, it as if you diagnose my problem and provided me a solution. Thanks again. Am implementing it right away, This is a report for someone you want to start a real business online, no fluff.

If you thinking of buying please don't hestitate, when i told my hubby about it and he is not an Internet marketer, he said i riped Russ off, that the report is worth more than the amount i bought it.

Thanks again
Shelly

Hey Ross,

Are the strategies in the ebook something that can be used to promote an online business?

[BlackTactics]

Does OP's product involve postcards?

[Russ Reynolds]

yes it can be

VERY nicely done, Russ.

True. It is a different approach and very 'doable' for those who don't like face-to-face (or telephone-to-telephone) prospecting...

What's cool is that, done right, with this system, the clients come to you.

Thanks for sharing you strategies with us, Russ.
