Hi Warriors,

I haven't been to this section in a while but this is in fact the section where I actually started to make great money by reading tons of info, asking questions and then getting to it. I've managed to get quite a few offline clients in a short time frame.

I was thinking of doing a free course (with no opt-in) on my website (or possibly in a new thread if Mods allow it) which would look at three services you could sell to offline business owners and how to sell them. I sell several different things. Right now there is a huge buzz in my neck of the woods for social media packages but of course everywhere is different.

I'd like to obviously tap into the whole selling technique that I personally use as well which has been selling my services for me. I've been in offline sales for over 12 years mostly selling for big companies - when I came to selling my own online based services I was a bit lost - so I came here and learnt a ton of things that really got me focused. My techniques may not work for everyone so keep an open mind on that. One of the biggest things I've learnt here it to take the core knowledge then make it your own. Does that make sense?

I not going to hype it up with a make millions in minutes. I'd just like to give something back to this sub-forum about what's worked for me.

So my question is - what three things would you like to know how to sell to offline business owners?

To give you an idea of the services I've sold here's a list:

- web design (I use that term loosely - I mean setting up a Wordpress site )
- seo
- social media set-ups (Twitter and Facebook)
- social media authoring (meaning I post tweets and updates for clients)
- Coaching (this has ranged from product creation, to how to blog and SEO)
- Online Business strategy
- time management coaching
- public speaking (I've done several public speaking events)
- in house company training (I've gone to companies and trained their staff - this has been in social media mostly)

If I haven't sold a specific service I'm not going to go there because I'd be talking out my rear end - so I'm sticking to what I know.

I can even share some of my bloopers too because I've made a ton and they've all been valuable to me.

So what can I share here and how best would you like it shared? On here or one of my sites with a brief run down here and a link? Like I said I prefer to go the route that best suits the majority and the mods here.

Please let me know,

Cheers,

V

    Hi V,

    This is most kind of you and very much appreciated. Like you once were, I am at the beginning of my quest in building my offline business. And also like you, I'd like to return to W.F. one day soon to give back and help others with valuable information and insight like I am getting here now. So thank you in advance.

    That being said, I would be very interested in learning the techniques you use to engage in public speaking and how you go about offering in house company training. Additionally, I look forward to you sharing your "what not to do" bloopers. I believe that it in itself will be very valuable in helping many of us avoid some of the pitfalls associated with starting our offline businesses.

    Thanks again and I look forward to your course.

      Hi Mulrain,

      When I first came here I was overwhelmed I must admit - but I was determined to make my mark offline. I've got to a certain point I feel confident to share what's worked for me so far.

      I had tons of bloopers and you're right, they are important. I'm not too proud to share my most obvious 'stupid moments':rolleyes:

      I'm making a note here of what interests people the most to learn about so I've added your suggestions to the list. If I get more people ask for these I'll run with them.

      Cheers,

      V
