How Any In­ter­net Mar­keter Can Make $10,000 NEXT Weekend

From Willie Craw­ford.

Lately, I hear from a LOT of strug­gling in­ter­net mar­keters. Many of them are wor­ried about pay­ing next mon­th’s rent, or hav­ing their elec­tric­ity turned off. In other words, I hear from a lot of in­ter­net mar­keters „with their backs against the wall.”

The sad part is that if they’ve stud­ied in­ter­net mar­ket­ing for a year or so, this is com­pletely un­nec­es­sary. They al­ready pos­sess the knowl­edge to gen­er­ate as much as $10,000 (or more) in a sin­gle week­end. They just haven’t learned to prop­erly value and mar­ket their know-how.

How does a strug­gling in­ter­net mar­keter go from zero to $10,000 in a sin­gle week­end? You CHANGE who you are mar­ket­ing to.

In­stead of try­ing to con­vince other in­ter­net mar­keters that they need some $20 ebook, you mar­ket to peo­ple with money al­ready bud­geted for ex­per­tise sim­i­lar to yours.

The cus­tomers that I pro­pose you mar­ket your in­ter­net ex­per­tise to are lo­cal of­fline busi­nesses. Many of the lo­cal busi­nesses in your area are strug­gling, and need your ex­per­tise, and are will­ing to pay for it.

What am I proposing?

I’m sug­gest­ing that you put on a 1-day work­shop where you TEACH lo­cal busi­nesses to use the in­ter­net to drive more pay­ing cus­tomers through their doors.

You charge a to­ken fee of $100 - $200 (or more) to these lo­cal busi­nesses, so that they value what you are teach­ing, but that’s not where you cash in.

In your 1-day work­shop, you teach these lo­cal busi­nesses about things such as search en­gine op­ti­miza­tion, long-tail key­words, and cap­tur­ing the email ad­dresses of their cus­tomers (and web­site vis­i­tors) so that they have an easy way to fol­low-up with them.

You teach the lo­cal beauty par­lor that, if they no­ticed Thurs­days are al­ways slow, an easy way to fix that prob­lem is to send out an email on Wednes­day to all of their cus­tomers, telling them that if they come in on Thurs­day, they get a 10% dis­count. Then you teach them how to cap­ture their cus­tomers’ con­tact data so that they can eas­ily con­tact ALL of their cus­tomers for free.

You ex­plain the power of email to them as com­pared to say news­pa­per or ra­dio ad­ver­tis­ing where there is con­sid­er­ably more prepa­ra­tion and lead time re­quired. You teach them that email is prac­ti­cally in­stant AND free.

You spend the day teach­ing these lo­cal busi­nesses how to re­ally har­ness the power of the in­ter­net. You don’t need to hold any­thing back - you can teach them every­thing that you know.

At the end of the 1-day sem­i­nar (you can make it 2 days if you pre­fer), you of­fer to do the things for them that you just taught them how to do. You’ll be pleas­antly sur­prised when 90% of them want you to do it for them (even though you just taught them how to do it).

These lo­cal busi­ness peo­ple are too busy run­ning the day to day op­er­a­tions of their busi­nesses to learn a whole new set of skill, so they will pay YOU hand­somely to do it for them.

Here’s the se­cret, you „out­source” that work. You charge the lo­cal busi­nesses enough where you can pay some­one else to do the work and still end up with thou­sands of dol­lars from the weekend.

You fun­nel the work to tal­ented peo­ple that you’ve met on­line or find through sites such as Elance.com

It re­ally is that sim­ple and easy.

But what if you don’t feel up to putting to­gether a pre­sen­ta­tion? You can get a com­plete sem­i­nar in a box, with slides, script, hand­outs, every­thing you need, from sev­eral places online.

In fact, I did­n’t write the pre­sen­ta­tion that I use when I put on lo­cal work­shops. I got the en­tire pre­sen­ta­tion at: https://TeachingEcommerceToLocalBusinesses.com

That „sem­i­nar in a box” pack­age is so com­plete that it even has the ads you use to let lo­cal busi­nesses know about the sem­i­nar. It is so com­plete that you „could” just hand the slides and script to an as­sis­tant and they could run the sem­i­nar for you.

I was so im­presses with the com­plete­ness of that pack­age, and how easy it was to just take it and host a sem­i­nar for lo­cal busi­nesses, that I in­ter­viewed the two mar­keters who cre­ated that pack­age on my ra­dio show. You are wel­come to grab the tran­script of that show free. I en­ti­tled it „How to Make A For­tune Of­fer­ing Free­lance Con­sult­ing To Lo­cal Of­fline Busi­nesses” and you can down­load it here: https://WillieCrawford.com/FreeTranscripts/

When host­ing lo­cal sem­i­nars, you want to keep your costs low, so you want to use a meet­ing room in a lo­cal ho­tel, high school, or you can rent a meet­ing room very in­ex­pen­sively from the lo­cal Knights of Colum­bus or Shriners. Lots of lo­cal civic and fra­ter­nal or­ga­ni­za­tions have their own meet­ing place, and hap­pily rent them out. You can even get some of these or­ga­ni­za­tions to pub­li­cize your sem­i­nar for you :-)

Every­thing that you need to know about or­ga­niz­ing a sem­i­nar for lo­cal of­fline busi­nesses is in­cluded in the pack­age men­tioned above, and the free tran­script shares a lot of great in­for­ma­tion too.

With just a lit­tle prepa­ra­tion, and the de­ci­sion to share your ex­per­tise with the „right mar­ket” - busi­ness peo­ple who have al­ready set aside funds for grow­ing their busi­nesses, you lit­er­ally can earn $10,000 (or more) in a sin­gle weekend.

If you get into ac­tion now, you could lit­er­ally do this next week­end, al­though I’d al­low a lit­tle more lead time.

This IS some­thing that you can do!

Take a look at the re­sources men­tioned above, flow out the event, and then do it! You’ll find your­self look­ing not only at your city, but at other nearby cities. It’s that lu­cra­tive, and that much fun. You’ll be­come a lo­cal celebrity, and a hero to lo­cal busi­nesses too.
