i know a lot of people search the forum all day long looking for that one WSO to come out and change their whole life. well guess what? maybe that WSO already came out but you decided not to take action on it. .

stop over thinking things. just take action

if you follow what i am about to tell and take action you will see at least $100 dollars in your account by today or tomorrow the latest.

so here is how you can do it.

you are going to have to pick up the phone, but is going to be very easy ok. you won't be selling anyone on the first phone call.

this is simply all you have to say.

you:hello, i was wondering if the manager was around? i made a video review about your business and i just want to show him.

when you speak to the manager. just tell them you created a video about his business and you just want to show them to see if its okay.
so ask for their email address.

ok so now that you have a business email address you will need a way to create videos. i use animoto. just pay the $5 fee to create simple videos so you can download them.

once you have created and account with them and pay the $5 fee, just go on google and search for good pictures about the niche of the restaurant that you can use on your video.

and create a simple 30-60 second video.


just make sure you add, their business name at the beginning of the video and their phone number at the end.

now that you are done with the video. just send it to them. and let them know that you created the video. send them the link to it.
and explain to them that the video you made is just a demo, that you would like to recreate the video with their own pictures, that you will make the video HD for them.

you might want to add a little explanation as to why they need a video for their business.

at the end of the video just add the following, feel free to reply back to this email, or you can wait for me to follow up.

if they don't reply back, just call them back the next day and take it from there. is not going to be a hard sale since you already show them what you can do for them.

don't be scare to call them back. the worst thing they can say is no thank you.

if you call for an hr or 2 and collect at least 30 emails. then spend another 2-3 hrs making the videos. there is no way you can't close at least 5 out of those 30 people.

there you have it. stop over complicating things. just take some action you will bring way more than 5 sales per day.

if you are in need of some quick cash you could do this. and make at least $1k a week.

also stick to a single niche. this way you can use the same pictures and all you have to change is the name of the business at the beginning and their phone number at the end.

  • Great post Henry

    Just wondering as this seems to be a slight twist to your other very good post on taking action on how yu got out of debit. Is this the same steps you taken or have you modified them a bit to reflect this review step or call you talk about here.


    Again Congrtaz on taking acton!

    • Hi Henry, I was wondering something similar in the context of what your personal results have been using both methods. Congrats!
  • well i been using this system for this whole week and i been closing less comparing to the other method.
    i avg 8-10 but i been selling the video for $50 instead of $25.
    but i been working less hrs. compared to calling for 6 hrs.

    i guess the difference is that on this method i don't have to speak with the decision maker, if hes not there i still ask for the email address.
    and i ask the person on the phone to let him know that i will be sending an email with a video review i created.

    i like to go this way better. if i called more. i will avg more of course. but that is what i been doing this week.

    i hope i answered your guys's questions

    • Hi Henry

      Thanks for sharing your system.

      Very inspiring - and idea generating.

      Question -

      The owner gets the "standard " video - and then you tell him you will customize it for him - is that when you introduce the $50? -- or when?? - and what do you say - since it seems he is expecting it for free?

      Or did I miss something?

      Thanks, Henry,

  • Just to clarify... you've been making 8-10 sales a day at $50 each?
    • [2] replies

    • I know on the other system you said you were averaging about 15 whihc is super BTW

      I also have to ask do you mean you closed 8-10 so far this week or 8-10 per day?

      I know you are inspiring quite a few here to take action
      • [1] reply
    • yes. but this thread wasn't aimed as to how much i make.
      i wrote to try and get people on here to take action.

      i feel this is part of the problem. people worry about what others make and think they can't do it. or what if they can't make the same.

      i personally would be happy if i only made over $100 per day.
      • [ 1 ] Thanks
  • I saw an ad in facebook, "Make $500 in one hour" where it was written that, "sell your house. You will earn more than $500 in less than one hour". I felt very weird. After reading the headline of this thread, I was afraid to read the whole thread. What you are going to tell me to sell? :p.

    Good idea there.
  • Henry you're the gift that keeps on giving.

    Thank you!
  • Hi Henry,
    you said:"... you might want to add a little explanation as to why they need a video for their business"

    What would you say is the benefit or use for them? Thanks for sharing this method! Its generous of you.

    Also henry, how do you collect payment?
    • [1] reply
    • well for example, they can use it to add to their facebook page or website.
      the video is easier to show up on google.
      if they don't have a website then this can be a way for them to get online.
      people love to see a video. it catches their attention.
      is all common sense.

  • To add on, you could start out by offering to give the video to them FREE.Tell them that you are a new business starting out and you would like to gain some testimonials. Yes you read that right, give it to them FREE. Why ?

    To get your foot in the door. No one rejects something that is given to them free, especially a video that they can use on their website. It's insane to turn down a free video made for your business.

    After giving them the free video, ask them for testimonials and to tell all their friends about your business. From there you could also upsell them mobile sites, white label SEO services, SMS services,website and social media management services,etc.

    It's really up to you to think of all the possibilities. People are more likely to agree to your other services after receiving your free video, that's just how humans operate. It's the law of reciprocity at work, we feel more obliged to do something for someone after they have done something for us.

    Remember guys, this is a business. You want to be a farmer that sows and reaps benefits that grows, not a hunter who hunts and feasts on whatever comes by and it's done.

    Now go out there and MAKE SOME MONEY !

  • I like your business plan and interested in your plan.This is the promotion of company by a video.
    nice share of you.
  • This is exactly what I'm doing after being inspired by your last thread. Keep up the great work henry, you've given me some more ideas here to implement.

    • This is a great idea and a good way to get your foot in the door for other services.
  • This is first time that I came across to such idea of making money. I dont know if this would work in India or not..I have many friends , who often ask me that how to earn money online, as they come across many advertisement which claims that they can earn more than $ 1000 to $ 3000 in a month . Often they come in the trap of cheats and sometime they just waste money as they are not able to understand what to do.

    • Henry, I am a bit confused here... How can you do a review video if you have never used their services? And then you say that by simply changing out their business name/phone/etc. that the same "review" video can be sent off to yet another business?

      You where generous to share a sample in your other thread, would you mind showing us a sample here as well?

      Thanks in advance,

      Eva

  • Great tip! Thank you so much for sharing your idea, even the dialogue word per word! This is really helpful. You can also try to improve your negotiation skills to get better deals. Through experience and time, you'll get better.
  • Thanks for sharing it.
  • A few quick questions.

    Do you upload the video to your Youtube account when sending over the link?

    Do you have any trouble with getting past the gatekeeper when asking for the manager?

    Are restaurants the best niche to start out with and should we always just ask for the manager and not the owner?

    Any example of a video? Do you make the video you send over not in HD and after they have paid do you then get their pics and do an HD video?

    • This isn't as easy of a sale as it is made out to be (at least for myself). Had to call for 2 hours just to get 30 e-mails. It was like pulling teeth trying to get the e-mails a lot of the time. Made the videos, sent the e-mails, no responses yet. I will follow up tomorrow and let you all know how it goes.

      It may be the niche that I'm going after that is causing me the trouble. Regardless, I won't quit. Thanks.

  • I want to give this a try. I purchased a WSO from you the other day, and I was more than satisfied! This will be a good addition to our current services.
  • Henry, I never knew about such an ingenious way to make extra money ! I actually went ahead and called a few businesses and was manage to close two. Made $300 in total for a few hours of work from the comfort of my home!

    I intend to keep doing this!

    • The premise of the tactic has been used for years. The main problem in using this as is, is that when you say you have a "review" video of their business and then send them a generic one, he may feel dupped and consider you just another hustler. I suggest trying the term "a video about" your business. This is technically a video about a business like yours so he should not feel mislead. Now if you have good sales and "spinning" type skills then you will be able to overcome some resistance.

  • Hi Henry,

    Thanks for your post but I wondered if you want to use this tool, you should by the commercial plan for your business. Am I right? What do you think guys?
  • Henry started this thread by saying we should ring up and say we have a video about their business. I see this as different from a review video.

    If you target a city and an industry you could include a couple of photos taken in the city and purchase a few standard industry shots from istockphoto. Next you may be able to grab a photo or two from their website. If you follow this up by including their business name and telephone number I believe the owner can see you have created something original to them with room for improvement.

    Thus 2 hours on the phone to get the emails and then 5hrs to make 30 videos, render, upload and send emails. Then a few hours are needed for follow up and finally 3hrs to create the 5-8 videos from the day before.

    In Henry's other thread "learn how i manage to get out of a $7k debt in just 5 days" he said: "i am new at cold calling. so i had to call for 6 hrs every day. and 1-2 more hr to do the follow up to try to upsell. and about 3 more hrs to deliver the work each day." So call it 11 hours compared to 10 hours with this. Really not much in it, and everyone will pitch at different prices, close at different percentages and produce the videos in shorter or longer periods.

    Like Henry says these are very long days but if you can secure 5-8 sales per day at say $250 - $400 it soon adds up.

    Personally I have created all kinds of videos for offline businesses but have never set up a system like this so I value the feedback from those who have actually taken action.
  • Hey guys.
    Sorry for bumping up the thread but I was reading through the forum for ideas on offline because I think I will give up the online marketing because the competition is very strong and wso after wso even if putting to action, I seem to never make it through.

    This thread got my attention because I used youtube as cpa and affiliate marketing with videos. Creating videos for businesses make sense for me. Then I had an idea and I want your opinion.

    Would it make sense for you guys, that after creating and showing them the video, you could try to upsell them on ranking this same video on youtube for number 1 spot, and google first page ranking for xxx per month, depending on the niche (make it residual to maintain the position with links building and maintenance) ?

    • But then you're entering into the SEO game again which for many is a no no. This is a simple concept of taking action, delivering the product and BAM, getting paid.

  • This all seems very interesting. Does anybody that has done this have any sample videos they could show? Also, is there a learning curve to learn how to make professional looking videos? Is there a good course that teaches this?

    Thanks!

    • You don't need a "course" in making videos if you follow the steps exactly as outlined. I started this way. Animoto is dead simple to use. I made my first video in less than 5 mins.

      Now... I use it a bit differently in conjunction with iMovie... but that's because I'm a nerd, and it's easy for me.

      Point being. Don't worry about "samples." You need pictures, and some basic info about the business, with their name on the first frame, and a call to action with some form of contact info at the end. Done. As you make them, you will get better... and if you're like me... you will figure out how to modify the process... but only after you've started by following the process exactly as outlined in Henry's threads.

  • Thanks HAdrian1239, I'm very guilty of overthinking/overanylizing things which makes it so difficult to have the confidence to start on new things that take me out of my comfort zone.

    But I'll sign up for Animoto and play around with it, then start with the phone calls.
    Any suggestions on wording for the email that goes out after the initial phone call?

  • Oh, also, does anyone know of a good source for free royalty-free photos?
