(For Literally Pennies On The Dollar!)
Are you ready to discover how to maximize sales, and out promote your big buck major competitors? Even if your actual real world experience is razor thin and money’s extremely tight!
Have you noticed how many little things you actually have in common, with so many people? For ex; when most people shop (offline) in the real world, they absolutely love discovering hidden bargains or love being one of the first, to take advantage of a really good thing.
How To Maximize Sales In Any Economy!
Time after time, the typical cash starved small business owner and or service providers, literally leaps over (proven) bank account filling marketing opportunities, in search of the elusive ‘push button’ marketing solutions! This (my friend) is not good. In fact, when you take away all the (totally) lame excuses, and really look at what you’re doing and why.You’ll see just how much you’re really over complicating things!
Case in point; can you believe that a staggering 50% of all small business owners and service providers (still literally) have no website and or WordPress blog! Say what? nod your head cadets, it’s true!
Let that startling statistic sink in! These otherwise savvy small business owners, aren’t even getting the benefit of local searches done, right in their own communities! it’s hard to believe that they are willing to ignore all that long term potential profit.
How To Maximize Sales And Out Promote Your Big Buck Major Competitors! (Introducing Three Incredibly Simple Ways To Do So!)
1.) Strategy # one: First, of all rather wasting outrageous sums of money sending slick direct mail pieces to non customers (complete strangers), instead try mailing a really good offer (along) with some of your best market tested free power bonuses, to a list of your best existing customers and clients!
And watch how much better your overall response rates are!
And if you insist on doing a mailing to group that’s never heard of you nor purchased from you before, this please do yourself and your bank account a favor! try using an endorsement letter (meaning) have the business owner send the actual letter to their (on or) offline database, and simply endorse (highly recommend) your product or service to their list. on average, you’ll come out so much better!
Because you’re leveraging the business owners relationship and credibility with their particular customers and clients!
2.) Strategy # two: Next, a company that is non competitive to yours and offer to help pay their postage costs, by offering them anywhere from .25 – .45 cents per mailing piece, to include one of your best market tested offers, inside their outgoing mail to one of their paying customers.
They’ll lower their upfront out of pocket cost and you’ll be exposed to some potential new customers and clients, for literally pennies on the dollar! plus, if you happen to have a pretty good idea of the ‘total lifetime value’ of your customers.
Then (only) if it makes sense, let the companies whose mail your piggybacking in, keep 80-100% of that first sale, so you can net 100% of all the additional future back end sales!
How To Maximize Sales Even If You’re Just Starting Out!
3.) Strategy # three: And finally… Ever hear of a moderately successful Insurance company called “Allstate?” Yes, only the second largest personal lines insurer in the US. But get this, they started with little tiny kiosks located inside of Sears department store. And the rest as they say, “is history.”
Here’s the point, what if you have an up & coming local bakery. Why not approach your local hair dresser (where you) get your hair done, and negotiate a deal where you come in on their slowest day(s) with a small display and offer up (both) some smaller free samples and regular size goodies for sale.
Maybe, you just give the owner free samples of everything and you’ll start to develop a new repeat customer base.
Offer everyone a special VIP discount coupon, that’s good for 20% off their nest three purchases (no minimum purchases) required. Hopefully, you see the overall concept? Meaning- you can look around for opportunities to get a small display unit inside of larger non compete traffic source.
And simply revenue split any and all front end profits! Create fre drawings, in order to list build!
