Hey Guys,

I was wondering if there was a comprehensive list of which services to offer offline clients?
What can you offer to them?
-Websites
-SEO
-......what else?

I am just looking for a complete list. and maybe some how-to

I just landed some clients for my business directory site and am looking for more ways to upsell.

Thanks,
Mike

    There's really no shortage of things you could offer local business clients.

    How about copywriting, google places optimization, graphic design, mobile web design, sms marketing, fan page design, email marketing, direct mail marketing etc....

    Most of those you can learn to do yourself or you can outsource and pocket the difference.

        Thanks for this great list. You could just offer one thing after another. Offline is a GREAT business and I am glad I am looking into it.

        Has anyone had any success getting offline clients on the weekends?

    I have to admit, it got under my skin tonight looking up a way to order a pizza using paypal. Apparently if you are in the UK and its all fine and dandy. IF you are in the USA, apparently we are too criminal for this LOL. Services have used it, and Paypal has shut them all down so as of now - it's not likely to happen.

    If you understand how to get a project together, and gather resources and knowledge in order to implement it, there is no end to how you can upsell. For instance, my brain is spinning right now - how could it be so difficult to have online pizza orders using something like PayPal? There is a huge demand for it, but I think PP does not like the idea of the entire Friday night crowd sending orders in at once. Here's the thing - what about the fifty mom and pop joints in town? The ones who never take more than fifty orders on a Friday?

    How many of you have sold web sites to the local pizza places and got them hooked up with SMM and SEO etc? Could you hook a paypal form and install a printer, cheap laptop with a live email/order taker on it just near the cashier?

    There really is no limit to tech and upsells right now ESPECIALLY when its catering the small busy who need it the most.
