So How Do Savvy Entrepreneurs Consistently Spot Those Seemingly Hidden Opportunities?

 

 

 

So has it ever crossed your mind “how” do these think outside the box entrepreneurial types, (from all walks of life mind you) constantly seem to (not only) consistently spot, but ultimately take advantage of these seemingly hidden opportunities?

That the rest of us zip past and (either) barely notice or really have no earthly idea “how to” consistently capitalize on them.

It’s like they seem to have this built in potential opportunity spotter, that somehow just lets their natural entrepreneurial tendencies surface. At the most opportune time(s.)Have you noticed that too? These highly driven entrepreneurs, model this very popular saying that some of the most successful home based industry experts, echo all the time.

They advocate (especially to their newer) associates, “don’t go out to prospect, prospect when you go out.” Did you notice the subtle difference in the opportunistic (far more) pro-active mindset they approach situations with?

It’s not so much they just somehow always seem (to be) and or consistently get luckier than the rest of us do. It appears to be more of the fact, that they can “somehow” seem to know how to interpret and seize in tons of everyday common situations, which most of us (unfortunately)simply view as nothing special…..

Seriously, haven’t you noticed “how” they can be placed in practically any type of all too common everyday situation, yet when they emerge from the other side, they’ve created (in lots of cases), tons of long term potential money making situations.

Case in point; in the remainder of this post. watch “how’ an extremely opportunistic thinking stockbroker, goes about turning (a routine act) such as parking their car in a paid parking garage, can be transformed into q potential long term money making opportunity! With tons of potential -long term- back end growth too!

 So How Do These Extremely Savvy Entrepreneurs Consistently Spot These Seemingly Hidden Opportunities?

(The Rest Of Us Just Plain Seem To Overlook!)

So for this particular hypothetical marketing example; let’ say Mary is already an extremely well established and successful stock broker, and she consistently earns mid to high six figures per year. But that doesn’t stop her  “think outside the box’ marketing wheels from constantly turning.

So one day as she’s out on her lunch break. She decides to (what else?) do a little shopping. And she parks her car in this three story Mom & Pop paid parking garage facility.

And as she’s walking to towards the check out booth, she notices several high end luxury cars parked in the garage as well. The exact same type of cars, that several of her best clients and referrals drive.

And this immediately starts her entrepreneurial wheels to turning. So she makes a few quick inquirers at the check out both, (and decides to walk the other two stories in order to see if her hunch is correct. And she discovers that this particular lot is routinely filled with those types of cars!

So she asks the owner if they would be open to a marketing gesture that would (most definitely) make them look like the hero, in the eyes of their customers. The owners of course are all ears!

So here’s what Mary proposes, after explaining what she does and “how” the owners of these luxury cars are her typically ideal type of clients. Here’s what she proposes.

She will gladly pay one month’s garage rental ffe for at least ten of these luxury car owners! And all she asks, is that the garage owner (and or the attendant(s) on duty) give the car owners her two sided (market tested) business and or index card.

And the card (we’ll get into some potential sample wording in part two), will direct the recipient(s) to a special 21 minute video about ‘how” and why they definitely need to have at least part of their investment income in equities (stocks) of some kind.

And on the back side, the recipients are directed to a special page on the stock brokers company WordPress blog, where they can schedule a free 90 minute “financial assessment” interview.

It Always Helps If Your Mind Is Open To Any Potential Creative Marketing Opportunities!

This in itself is a $250 dollar value! Now honestly, if you had just parked your luxury car in a garage (where you either pay a weekly or monthly rental fee)  and with donuts and your morning cup of coffee in hand. And the garage owner and or one of their attendants, made you aware that someone has paid your current rental fee and if you’d already paid that week or month’s fee your amount would automatically be prorated forward to the next month.

And they handed you (either) their market tested two sided business card and or index card.

Would you at least have a look at the 21 minute video the website directed you to? And of the ten recipients of this stock brokers (marketing savvy) generosity, if only three (30%) take them up on their offer.

Seeing “how” they could easily be worth $2,000 – $5,000 on the initial front end commission(s) and anywhere from $15,000 – $40,000 thousand dollars on the back end! When you count potential repeat business, (positive word of mouth in general), referrals and upgrades to their current estate planning etc.

Hopefully,you can see and appreciate “how” this one incredibly simple marketing ploy can easily be worth the cost of ten weekly and or monthly garage rental fees, correct? In part two, we’ll dive even deeper, but now, it’s a lot easier to see and appreciate “how” Mary or any other serious entrepreneurs can systematically increase their business! Just by consistently ‘thinking just a little outside the box!”Right?
