You know, a <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>gazillion people<\/strong><\/span> pack into the local park and there’s <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>music<\/strong><\/span>, way <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>over priced<\/strong><\/span> greasy food, crafts and all types of activities for the kids and there’s even stuff for the teenage crowd as well.<\/p>\n<p>You basically, casually stroll around looking for reasons (<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>excuses<\/strong><\/span>) to purchase some of the over priced food! Typically the vendors pay a fee to set up shop and they try and make as much money as they can in as short a period of time as possible! \ud83d\ude0e Sounds reasonable don’t you think? But truth told, they (and hopefully) not you, are making a <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>huge mistake!<\/strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Huh?<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Case in point:<\/strong><\/span> what if they (you) did this instead! First, take a more broad long range approach to systematically growing your business. Let’s say both you and the other two vendors located on either side of you (at this festival), all sell a really <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>“big gulp”<\/strong> <\/span>soda for<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong> $4.79<\/strong> <\/span>(or X.)<\/p>\n<p>And some of the locals will readily pay it! But <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>“what”<\/strong><\/span> if you take a more long term <a title=\"How And Where The Ultimate Insiders Get 250% More Marketing Leverage For Pennies On The Dollar!Part Two\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youcanmarketonlinenow.com\/how-and-where-the-ultimate-insiders-get-250-more-marketing-leverage-for-pennies-on-the-dollarpart-two\/\">marketing leverage<\/a> approach, and do this instead. Place a big sign in front of your booth or be sure you tweet this announcement a few times, a few days until the actual event, and mention it on your Facebook fanpage as well!<\/p>\n<h2>Your Local One Or Two Day Festivals Are Potential Goldmines!<\/h2>\n<p>You offer a <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>special festival price<\/strong><\/span> for your big gulp of only <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>$.99<\/strong><\/span> cents or X! Or you can do this exact same concept with any of your most popular food products.Huh?<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, a gazillion of the locals (hopefully) decide it’s so much <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>cheaper<\/strong><\/span> to pay <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>$.99<\/strong> <\/span>cents for your big gulp, instead of the <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>$4.79<\/strong><\/span> that your competitors are asking!<\/p>\n<p>But here’s the kicker! (So <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>please<\/strong> <\/span>pay close attention!) You also, offer every purchaser a special <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>VIP<\/strong><\/span> discount coupon card (and if they want) they can pay one dollar to have the card laminated, and for the next year, they can come to your business and buy the big gulp (or whatever product you choose to offer!) and pay just <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>$.99 cents!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Think about <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>“how”<\/strong><\/span> many repeat visits this simple marketing ploy will generate!
