What is the Offline Marketing Opportunity ? - A Basic Explanation For Newbs.

8 replies
First of all, the opportunity to make money exists for every single person reading this. Yes, its true.

Offline marketing presents that opportunity.

Making money is simple. It's a "transaction".

There are transactions taking place all around us, every moment of every day. All we have to do is try to get in on one of them.

Someone is buying gas, another person is buying used tires, another person is looking for a home, another person is looking for a way to advertise their Christmas sale, and another person is trying to find someone to shovel their driveway, or repair their roof, or repaint their living room...

Another person just dumped their web designer and they are looking for someone to help them put their site back together... or re design it...

People are selling products and services all around us, and people are buying those products and services.

Making money in two days, or in two months is a matter of one thing.

Money is made when one of these transactions happen. So you have to be on the selling end of one of them. Then you make money.

It can take a day, or it can take a week. Your choice. How soon can you get on the selling end of one of those transactions?

This is where the offline Marketing Opportunity can potentially change your life, because, it presents a lot of opportunity for you to get in on a transaction.

For all of "our" intents and purposes, the definition of being an offline marketer, is to be one who sells online marketing services such as web design and seo to local offline business owners, and its an opportunity for you to be a part of a money producing transaction.

Basically, the "Offline Marketing Opportunity" is this:

There are a lot of local business owners out there who need face book pages, and web re design services, and seo services, and traffic generation services , advertising and brand awareness services...

They are just waiting for someone to sell it to them, and YOU can be that person! No Matter who you are!

But I don't offer any of those services!

You don't have to.

This Warrior forum is FULL of people who sell face book advertising services, and web design services... and SEO services... and newsletter management services....

ALL of those service providers have something in common- They will pay you up to fifty percent commission or more to sell their services for them.

All you have to do is take down the features and benefits of their products, create a basic sales pitch, and go out and start talking to business owners about them. You might make a sale your first day, or your first week!

What if you made a $500 commission your first day?

It happens all the time.

What if that customer even signed up for a monthly program and you make commissions for the rest of your life on them?

Thats the kind of opportunity that offline marketing presents.

So I just wanted to throw this is in there, in case anyone really doesn't get the offline opportunity.

That's what it is. It's the chance for any person, no matter where they are starting from, to have an opportunity to get in on a transaction.

There are many things you can promote in the offline marketing arena that can make you a ton of money, all you have to do is be willing to go out and reach the business owners, telling them about the various products and services..., and you have everything you need to make money, even instantly , if you want to!

If you can find a product or service to sell, and be willing to go out an sell it, then you are in business.

    This is my very first post! I have been a warrior forum lurker for a few YEARS. Yes, years. I have been wanting to offer services to small businesses for a long time. I just felt I didn't know enough to offer any real value to anyone offline. And now I read your post. Light bulb moment.

    I am a full-time writer, but felt that wasn't enough because I'm not a great "copywriter." I know many businesses don't want to just hire a writer; they want someone to make money for them. Increase sales. I am always afraid a business owner will ask me to do SEO, get them to the top of Google, or create Facebook pages, Tweet, etc. I don't like and not qualified to do any of that. And totally realized, I don't have to! DUH. I can still offer these services, but just have someone else do them. I know I may be rambling, but I just want to say THANK YOU. I've been making this too hard!!

    But if you could, what would you recommend I offer to businesses? I thought about having a website created for businesses without sites and write copy for the sites as a service. Now, I don't create websites, but I could partner with someone and offer them, right? Also, what if I had someone create some type of squeeze page for a client, drive traffic to it, and help the client make sales that way? I would love to offer something like that. I think a small business would be amazed if they made sales or brought in more leads via the internet. Again, rambling. I'll stop.

    Sorry for the novel! =)

    You can get a lot of local business owners to sell these services to using the technique in this youtube video (I didn't create the video, the guy who created it has some great software, shown in the video, which you can use for free to complete the technique in the video)
