Innovative Offline Marketing! Part 1
We’re starting a new series and we’ll begin with…Innovative Offline Marketing-Part 1
Here’s what we personally went out and did, drove to Office Max and purchased a customized stamp for around $20.00 and a set of post it notes for around $5.00, came home and got started stamping each post it note with a simple 4 line message.
The next step was to distribute these in high traffic areas such as ATM machines,Coin Star’s,Bank drive-thru’s,Newspaper machines,Pop machines,DVD rental machines,Change machines at car wash’s and laundry mats,Lotto machines, the list goes on and on. Just be imaginative. I’m sure you can think of a lot of places that catch your eye. You only need one per location and then the magic starts almost immediately.
After Brian placed these post it notes in various locations, he came home, literally just walked in the door, and the phone rang. In amazement, I answered and the person proceeded to say, “I got your post it note at the bank ATM and I’m interested”. Can you believe it?! Just that quick!
Now, at this point you want to begin pre-qualifying the person calling you to determine if they’ll be a right fit for your business. By the person taking the post it note in the first place shows that they have a need to be met and that they are truly interested. Now you need to send them a questionnaire to continue the process of pre-qualifying the person. It is so simple! Speed is important if you want to grow your business and this method simply cuts down on a lot of wasted energy and time chasing people who aren’t serious about changing their lives by putting words into action.
Hope you enjoyed this little tidbit of information.Please feel free to share your success stories in utilizing this wonderful technique.

Absolutely brilliant, Brian! I admire your simplicity (synonymous with ingenuity), and I’m grateful to connect with fellow entrepreneurs like yourself who reject the mentality of “you gotta have money to make money”.
Thank you for sharing!
