Barter or Referral System Makes Millions for Head Hunter-Engineer
 

Thanks Dien,

This is the Story Bob Told me while having lunch.

How He Created VALUE
and TRUST out of Nothing.

And took himself from nobody in his chosen city
to multi-millionaire in the Key Person Headhunting biz.

On the one Hand Bob Seems
to BARTER For His First Appointment
with the 3 MAJOR PLAYERS in his local Headhunting
Hi-Tech Niche Business.

On The OTHER Hand You Could Call what
Bob did with his Spreadsheet Connections
System a REFERRAL SYSTEM.

PLUS it's easily Adaptable in ANY Industry.

STEP #1 - Bob moved into town and couldn't CALL UP
any of the top 3 BIG PLAYERS who supplied the KEY
PEOPLE to the Tech Industry. (He tried.)

STEP #2 - So Bob Created a Spreadsheet of these 3 guys
and all of the people they know and work with that He Can Find.

STEP #3 - Then Bob Made a List of everyone HE KNOWS
in the industry. Called Them up and ASKED, "Do you know
or do you Know someone ELSE who knows any of these 3
Big GUYS?

STEP #4 - Bob made a Last Column on his Spreadsheet
of all of HIS CONTACTS who know or can Email or call
the BIG THREE directly.

STEP #5 - Bob Started BARTERING with this last short list
of Folks. Helping them. Sending them books and Links
and Referrals.

ANYTHING he could do to create a POSITIVE
BANK Account with them.

STEP #6 - After 30 days of Intense Work - Bob LAUNCHED His Plan.
He contacted all of the Folks
he'd done FAVORS for and ASKED them to Call and write the
BIG THREE and say something complimentary about Bob.

a - He supplied them with phone scripts

b - He wrote a bunch of possible emails

c - He created 5 or 6 Reasons why each person might
Write a Thank you letter to the BIG THREE and
name drop Bob's name.

Bob literally walked with these people to The MAIL BOX
and put the letter inside.

RESULT?

ONE WEEK AFTER Bob asked his Contact List
to Endorse him to the 3 INNER CIRCLE HEAD HUNTER GUYS
Bob's Phone Calls got thru.

Bob Had lunch with each of the 3 guys.

And Showed them What Bob had done before
in another city. And his ideas to help THEM.

His Key Person Head Hunting Biz Took Off!

Thanks,
Glenn

Barter PostCard Mailed to 412 Doctors Makes 487,000 in 2 Weeks
 

Thanks Gordon,

Is The Promise of Getting 50,000.00 of F-r-e-e
Software Barter?

What do YOU Think?

Mike was part owner of a Medical Testing Business.

And he spent 50Grand to develop Special Software
that Doctors can use to Cut LABOR COSTS in their practice.

Mike Couldn't Figure Out How to SELL It, however.

So he gave it away in this PostCard offer.

I'm Writing From Memory here but
the Headline and offer on the postcard
read something like THIS -

You Can Get $50,000 of
Medical Software for FREE
To Cut Labor Costs in
Your Practice When you
Switch Your Medical Testing
Biz to XYZ MedCorp.
Call Ph#

RESULT?

And Please Remember that All of Mikes
Medical Testing Competitors were
multi-billion behemoths.

What IS Medical testing?

When you go to the DOC he or she
May take blood or urine or stool
Samples and send it to the lab
to find out what Is WRONG with you.

There you have it.

Anyway.

For 2 Weeks Mike Got Phone Calls
from Doctor Practice Owners who
Switched a total of 487,000.00 of
Medical Testing Business over to Mike
Over a two week Period.

In Return for a Floppy Disk!

ONE PROBLEM.

Mike's Partners At The LAB
BEGGED him not to mail the
PostCard Any More.

They Couldn't Keep up with
the Sudden Influx of Business.

So Mike Sold his interest in the
Business While it was At it's
Highest Value.

Started something New.

Thanks,
Glenn

We Googled "What is The Definition of Barter?"
 

Thanks Dien,

While Writing a "Banned Barter Volume II" e-book
I googled "What is the Definition of BARTER?"

========
BARTER - The Exchange of (goods or services) for other goods or services without using money
========

Fantastic.

My Favorite Barbra Streisand Quote, "I like to Research The Technology of
things so I can Stretch the Limits."

This Definition of BARTER allows us to THINK OUTSIDE the BOX.

THIS MEANs -

***We can Barter a Service for Goods.

***Goods for a Service.

***Goods for Goods.

***A Service for a Service.

***A Service for both Goods and another Service.

***Goods for Different Goods and Services.

I - "GOODS" could be a Postage Stamp

II - "A Service" Might be A Case Study In Your Industry
Which Shows you how Someone ELSE in your Business
is making 7 figures in a new Way. So you can do it too.

III - BARTER of GOODS - Might be When I Send you a SHOE in the Mail. With
a NOTE inside that Says, "Just wanted to Get my SHOE in the door to ______"

IV - A BARTER SERVICE - I knew a guy who Sent out Thousands of JOKE Postcards a year. Made millions by customizing the idea for Niche Industry Clients.

Perhaps he was BARTERING a LAUGH linked to Your Offer
To Raise Response Rates. IT REALLY WORKED.

How are
we doing?

Does Your Brain Feel STRETCHED?
=============
=============
ACTION SUMMARY -

This means the Salvation Army Group
that sends me Letters Every Month - with a window and a REAL STAMP
is Using BARTER to get me to OPEN THE ENVELOPE and GIVE.

======

This Means That when Gary Halbert stapled a 100.00 bill on
top of 200 sales letters to his most affluent Newsletter customers...

He
was
Bartering
for their Time to read his 20,000.00 offer.

Gary's 1.00 Bill Letter Which has Grossed Literally BILLIONS for him,
His clients and many of US - Might be Considered BARTER too.

======
Perhaps it ALSO Means that "The-Billion-a-month"
Interactive Games Like WOW - "World of WarCraft and
"Dungeons and Dragons
Use BARTER to get players HOOKED.

They BARTER Version I -
- Which is Free - For a Chance to Get You Hooked on their Game.

But to get the UpGrade to the "New Improved Version."
You
Gotta
PAY.

REMEMBER Aol? They got out in front of Competitors - FOR A WHILE - by
sending out Zillions of copies of their EZ to use - Software Floppy Disks.

This Definition of BARTER says AOL got Rich
by Bartering F-r-e-e Software for each New USER.

=======
Hmmmm.

I just went to YouTube and Watched a Collection of NEW MOVIE TRAILERS.

Could it be that these
FREE Mini Movies
Can Be Considered BARTER?

Barter FREE MINI ENTERTAINMENT
For 2 Minutes of our Time -- to Persuade us to B-UY the Movie.

(Editors Note - I know I decided which movies I WANTED to Watch
and NOT WATCH - right then and there - so the Trailers are VERY EFFECTIVE.)

Thanks,
Glenn

Oooops-Gary Halbert and Barter Thru The Mail
 

Hi,

I just realized that while Gary Halbert LITERALLY PAID prospects to read
his letters.

Which IS NOT BARTER. (Because Barter does not use Munny.)

Gary used lots of other items
on top of his sales offers.

I Believe - Gary may have been The INSPIRATION for "Lumpy Mail."

And I myself have sent Snail Mail Letters with Green Leaves Stapled to the
top.

=========
Hi - The Reasons WHY This Letter has a Maple LEAF stapled on top are two.

#1 - This Letter is about putting more GREEN in your wallet.

#2 - Before This Leaf Turns Brown Our Offer is Dead too.

=========

I've sent Letters on top of cookies.

Sales letters Stapled to Teddy Bears.

Fortune Cookie Sales letters.

YOU GET THE IDEA.

So.

I Goofed in the Previous Post - when I Talked About Gary Halbert
Bartering with munny in the mail. (NOT Strictly Barter)

But Gary stuck all kinds of goofy things to the tops of his
letters. Not Just Munny.

Thanks,
Glenn

P.S. - I got to Reviewing - in my mind - what I had written and Figured I'd
better FESS Up to making a mistake.

Weird Fortune Cookie--Hotel--Wedding Planner Barter Triangulation
 

Thanks Gordon,

Here is what I did to Create a Situation where I Got F-r-e-e
Fortune Cookies for Several Years. 1000's of Free Fortune Cookies.

FIRST - Mike at FancyFortuneCookies.com and I were talking. And Mike
said, "I'd love to have a bunch more Wedding Planner Customers. They
Order a LOT of Fortune Cookies."

So I Offered to Try and Find Him "A bunch" of these Wedding Planner folks
since they were among his best prospects.

***IF - Mike would let me Give Away FORTUNE COOKIE Thank you Baskets.

***IF - I found him 50 or more Mike Agreed to Mail Customized Thank you
Fortune Cookie Baskets to my Marketing Consulting Prospects BEFORE I called them.

***And IF - Mike would give me the Name, Address and Ph # and Job Title
a Bunch of his Best Repeat Buyers of Fortune Cookies to call up.

ALL of WHICH WE Agreed on.

FUNNY THINGS HAPPEN When you offer to Help Business Owners
THANK REWARD their Best Clients.

My
3rd
Phone
call into the List was to TOM - Whose job Title is "Banquet Facilities Manager" at a major Hotel in
Chicago.

Tom LOVED the idea of Paying NOTHING to Send a Thank You Basket of
Fortune Cookies to HIS Best - Most Frequent Banquet Facilities Users - Wedding
Planner Company owners.

I asked Tom, "How many Wedding Planner Clients do you have?"

Tom said, "Oh, a few HUNDRED."

ME - "COUGH, Cough, Cough. Sorry frog in my throat."

I called Mike up with the GOOD NEWS.

And Mike said, "Thanks. Please STOP. I've gotta call Tom at the Hotel
and figure out what Fortune Cookie Baskets he wants to send 200 to 300
Wedding Planners. And THEN figure out how to Follow up with all of them."

IF BARTER is Trading goods and Services for other Goods and Services
without munny.

IF Barter is Swapping Value for Value.

a - We Traded Our Time And Experience to Find 300 of Mikes Best
Prospects - in Return for some Free Gifts for MY Prospects.

b - Then Mike Traded 300 Thank you Reward Fortune Cookie Baskets
to the Facilities Manager at the Hotel (Thank You Rewards That got the Hotel
More Bookings) - to Get INTRODUCED to
300 Wedding Planners.

Sort of Mind Boggling if you think about
the Possibilities for this idea.

Thanks,
Glenn

Re: Weird Fortune Cookie--Hotel--Wedding Planner Barter Triangulation
 

Glenn,

You are an Idea Machine!

Thanks for posting so many great ideas and ways to make them work.

I've been able to adapt quite a few of them for my own and other businesses.

Working on "bartering" a little court time at a local tennis club, currently. :)

You're quite right about the possibilities being "mind boggling".

Ron

Bartering w/20 Million A Yr Mentor - PART I
 

Thanks Ron,

Tennis Court Reservations are Like Hotel Rooms
or Tee Times.

Perfect for Barter Because Any Un-Used Time is GONE forever.

==========
One of my Mentors Grosses 20 million a year
with a Direct S-ales Company called "New Earth."

Barb Flies all over the USA and Canada giving presentations
and giving away Natural Energy Samples.

I've been eating ONE Product from the "New Earth" Catalog
for 26 years. And have been 100% Flu and Cold - Free.

So I Sent Barb The Following BARTER Case Study.
Which Costs ME Nothing.

But Which WILL VERY LIKELY allow her to Help 1000's of people
Energize themselves. And Improve Their Health. Like me.

And Make Barb Many 1000's - in return.

I'll Tell You THE REST of This INFORMATION Barter
Story in - PART II.

But 1st Here is The Case Study That Barb said, "WOW. Just Wow" to.

=============
=============
WAR DOG Peanut Butter Case Study -

Randy told me the story of how he became the owner of a Iraq War Dog
named "Sister."

On his 2nd tour as a soldier in Iraq Randy was about to go home
when his unit commander came over to him.

Said, "If you don't take "Sister" home with you we'll have to shoot her.
She doesn't take orders from anybody but you."

Randy argued, "What am I going to do with a 250 pound monster dog
at my house in Houston, TX?"

Commander - "You'll Figure it out." And walked away.

PROBLEM #1 - Sister is Trained to Drag injured soldiers out of danger. Ignores
bullets and only takes orders from ONE MAN. So she can't fly in the passenger
area of an airplane. She could bite someones arm off - Guarding Randy.

So Randy spends 20 hours strapped to the wall of a Giant Cargo Plane
with Sister's head in his lap for Warmth.

Randy told me his butt froze solid on the metal of the plane floor.

I asked, "Just How big is Sister?"

Randy - "Let's just say I can put my entire head in her mouth with room
left over."

PROBLEM #2 - Sister Is solid muscle but is too heavy for the 112 degree heat
of Houston, TX - so she stays inside the Air conditioned house most of the time.
Randy is trying to figure out how to get Sister to lose wgt.

PROBLEM #3 - Sister is more like a Horse than a dog. And when she runs
at night -when it's cooler- the bullets and shrapnel inside her body -
work their way to the surface of her skin.

Randy gives the command NOT TO MOVE. And slices her skin to remove
the metal paining her.

But there are lots more pieces of metal inside her. So Sister
is often in pain.

PROBLEM #4 - Sister has been Trained not to eat anything except at a certain
time of the day and from her own special Bowl. Several Pounds of Raw Steak.

So Randy can't figure out how to get Vitamins into her.

STRATEGY I - We Surveyed our Mastermind Group. Found a guy who knew
that when you stick a Big Glob of Peanut Butter with Vitamin Capsules
stuck inside BEHIND a Dogs Front TEETH- the dog will lick and lick at it until
the peanut butter is gone AND swallow the vitamins - all at the same time.

SUCCESS STORY II - We sent 240.00 of SUPER Blue Green Algae capsules
to Randy - Explaining how to Feed Them inside Peanut Butter to SISTER.

And not only did she begin to heal faster - from all the bullet wounds. But
the stray chunks of bullets were quickly forced out of her body - so she was
not in constant pain.

SIDE EFFECT III - Randy discovered that by Feeding Sister Lots of Algae
In Peanut Butter - She Felt so good she began to run around more. And
began to lose weight. So she didn't suffer so much in the heat.

They only went out at night - so as not to SCARE the neighbors.

RESULT?

A few weeks after we helped Randy Heal His Friend Sister
we got a big box in the mail.

When I opened it up there was a NEW 27 inch Screen - 2100.00 IMac
Apple Computer inside.

And Randy had loaded it with software AND called to walk me thru
the set up process.

Thanks,
Glenn

P.S. - PART II - What Barb Sent Me Back.

PART II - Bartering with 20 Million a Year Mentor
 

Thanks Dien,

In Barter STEP #1 - We Sent Barb a tear jerker of a Testimonial
she can share with 100,000 of her Associates.

Barb Reciprocates and says says,
"How can I Help You, Glenn?"

I said, "Please Send me some Dog Testimonials. All my neighbors have
old dogs and I hear the NEW EARTH company can make them young again."

And
She
Did.

BARTER STEP #2 - Barb Sent me a couple dozen cat and dog Testimonials.

=============
Dog Before and After Stories -

DOG TESTIMONIALS -

Jennifer Roach
Smart Dogs Choose Superfoods
Four years ago, I had four dogs that we fed tablets of New Earth Body® and New Earth Mind®, and sometimes enzymes. One time the dogs need-ed to be wormed. When the vet picked up the bottle of worming pills, it rattled a bit. The dogs nearly knocked him over trying to get to the bottle. Laughing, he said he had never seen dogs that wanted to be wormed so badly.
I chuckled and said, "Let's try an experiment." I got my bottle of Body tablets and he had his worming pills. We held our bottles behind our backs and stood 20 feet apart. I shook mine and he shook his. The dogs came running to me. I rewarded them with a few tablets. We switched bottles and shook them again. The dogs hesitated, then ran to the vet! When we offered the worming pills, they grabbed at them thinking it was more of their "green stuff," but they spit them out after they figured it out! The thought of that visit always makes me laugh.

Brendy B. B.
My dogs get Essentials Blend everyday. I love how the BG Mind helps with training and focusing and helps keep them calm and mellow. My one dog was super hyper when he arrived at our house. You would never know that now! They are now 7 and still raring to go like puppies at times.

Pat R.
I've been putting about a teaspoonful of the Essentials Blend in a ziplock Snack Bag. It works really well I tell people to lick a finger & stick it in the bag & then let the dog or cat lick it off.

Susan K. C.
I sprinkle Essentials Blend on my 11.5 pound dog's food and did the same for my cats. That, plus a raw diet, has helped them all to thrive.
3.5 oz of Essentials Blend is $40 for Associates and lasts a long time, depending on the size of your animals.

Andrea B.
My dogs are loving the Essentials Blend powder and I hear they also can eat BG bars. this morning 2 of my 3 dogs ate their entire bowl and normally I put out their food and they eat a few bites. they love it. Not sure about cats and the amount but my dogs are getting 1/4 teaspoon per 2 cups of food.
It will last a couple months. I would say 4+ months or so if I was just giving it to my dogs.

Dogs Benefit from SBGA Products
K. Carlson, an animal therapist
A few months ago, I began giving New Earth® Essentials Blend to Goldie, a 13-year-old Golden Retriever with severe arthritis. I soon added the Enzymes and Acidophilus to her diet. Within two weeks, her coat improved, her heavy panting had ceased, and her breath was vastly improved. Goldie had some cloudiness in both eyes and after two solid months on the products, her eyes appeared much brighter and full of life. I started giving her Super Sprouts & Algae about one month ago. Goldie now can't wait for her daily walks. Her owner swears she has a new dog on her hands and is thrilled!

Rygger, our six-year-old yellow Labrador, swims every day and has had a constant infection in one or both ears. He has been through conventional and naturopathic medicine, and still the infection would return. After hearing about the New Earth Foods, I decided to try it with him, mostly for all the other nutritional benefits. I noticed that two weeks after adding it to his food, the ear infection was almost non-existent. Two weeks after that, the ear was healthy, pink, and dry! No more shaking his head and no more constantly cleaning out the ear! What a relief for both of us.

Tips To Keep Your Animals Flea Free
I have read and firmly believe that an animal with a strong immune system will not attract parasites. Our pets have been given the New Earth Foods for the past six years-including one Wild Earth cap contents each day. Seldom have our dogs ever had a flea on them.

Andrea B.:

=============

Wow.

You know I can't Resist TESTING THIS!

NEXT - I ordered A small Container of The "Essentials Blend Plus Algae"
And sent it to a Cat LOVING Friend in Seattle.

Jane says, "All the neighbors cats line up because I feed Them CAT TREATS
when I come home from work."

Janes job is to dip one end of each cat treat into the "Natural Energy Dust"

Feed Cat Treats to her adoring feline fans.
Then Report WHAT HAPPENS back to me.

NEXT I TOLD Barb - my plans to PERSONALLY TEST This out.
By Handing out Dog Treats
with "Essentials Blend Dust" on them to my neighbors with Old Dogs.

Barb said, "Let me send you your own Website to Order From. This way you
get paid a Percentage of your own orders. And Can Let Others Try samples
too without calling the 800 Order # - 9 to 5.

So
Barb
Bought me my own Website...
Where I can send people who wanna HELP their Pets
without the MLM Hassle.

Here is the Link to MY New Website where I order
the Pet Stuff. (Essentials Blend Plus)

http://www.teamnewearth.com/rentamen...ail?item=21678

AND I found some 5 Star Rated
Dog Treats for 4 bucks at Amazon.com

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...p age_o02_s00

SEE
PART III - To Find Out What Who We Gave The Dog Treats to.

PART III - Bartering with a 20 Mil a Year Mentor
 

Thanks Gordon,

So.

To Recap our Tennis Match of BARTER
w/My 20 Mil Mentor Barb.

Part I - We sent a HumDinger of a Testimonial to Barb
and gave her Permission to Share it with her Hordes of customers.

Part II - Barb Sent Me a Bunch of Pet Testimonials
and Gave me my Own - Direct Order Website.

PART III - I just found out one of my neighbors has TWO dogs.

One is age 5.

The other is age 15 and can barely walk. Has arthritis and lies around all
day.

I told The 80 lb Black lab owner about the Dog Treats and the
"Essentials Blend Mineral Dust"

And she almost cried.

Sally has been delaying taking her beloved dog to the vet to be
Put down.

I poured 1/3 of the "Essentials Blend Nutrition Dust" into the Dog Treat
bag. And did the Shake and Bake. To coat the dog treats
in the dust.

And took the whole 4.00 bag of Dog Treats over to Sally.

So we Wait.

And Hope it's not too late.

Fingers Crossed. We Help Sally rescue her dog
so he lives a long time.

And Sally tells me about another friend who has an older dog.

Thanks,
Glenn

P.S. - Just Suppose The Dog IMPROVES and Starts Jumping around again?

You can TELL I've done this before, right?
Just not with this New "Essentials Blend" product.

The Dog owner Starts Asking, "Do you have anything to make ME
Younger too?"

Answer - "Yes We Do."

P.P.S. - Dunno if YOU Noticed or not. But We Just Used BARTER
to GO AROUND the Entire complicated MLM Mess.

And Give Away a Few Samples to Start a Chain of
Referrals AFTER Dog and Cat OWNERS (Who LUV Their Pets Like their KIDS)
notice their OLDER
Pets Become Like PUPPIES again.

Re: PART III - Bartering with a 20 Mil a Year Mentor
 

Glenn,

We all know people with dogs and cats. We also know these animals have their own set of problems. Your 250 lb dog full of bullets and shrapnel story sounds a bit like a tall tale. A dog hit by a bullet or shrapnel is like a human hit by a bullet or shrapnel. From what I know about these service animals, they are not permitted to stay in theater if they've been wounded. They are returned to duty only when they heal. Same with a GI. I guess that tells you how DoD thinks of both...

Regardless, and I did read Part II, your stories sound good but I am skeptical about the animals living longer or recuperating with no problems from whatever their particular ailment or all of a sudden becoming compliant little beings, hmmm...

I want to believe but so far you haven't presented enough information for me to be a convert. What I do know is how you order off your personal website and it is a MLM. Plus you did most of it with barter. Good testimonial for barter.

But, so far, nothing to convince me to buy the stuff for my pets. From the tone of your posts, I get the impression you are looking to sell the stuff. And, I'm looking to buy if all is well behind the curtain.

I am not being contrary or ornery. Just saying I am not convinced at this point. I believe you have my phone number. If you want to call me, feel free. I'd love to become a card carrying member.

Tom

Thanks Tom - Answers to Your Concerns
 

Thanks Tom,

You are I are on the same page.

Which is why I just Supplied a Neighbor with a 1/2 dead 15 yr old Dog
-With Arthritis so bad he can't walk-
25.00 worth of Dog Treats dusted with this Natural mineral dust.

My Goal?

To see with my own Eyes WHAT HAPPENS.

As Far as the Bullet Fragments or shrapnel or Whatever
subcutaneous metal fragments worked their way out of the War Dog's
Muscle or fat into her skin...

That had nothing to do with the Algae
but was a Result of "Sister" running around - full tilt at night.

=========
=========
The Reason Why You Should Not TEST The Super Algae Yourself -

ONE REASON.

Jay Abraham Taught us to Give Lots and Lots of Details
when Writing Case Studies.

And that if you DON'T ALLOW readers to Find Out More.
Show and Tell them How to Order and Test for themselves.

You Actually do people a Dis-Service.

Everybody decides for themselves.

Your Decision is "No".

I'm Happy with that.

Thanks,
Glenn

P.S. - Since We are speaking about BARTER. I send my clients and JV
Partners F-r-e-e Samples of This Super Algae.

It Makes them A Whole Lot SMARTER.

And Because it gives them SO Much EXTRA ENERGY - Less work for ME.

So You Could Say I BARTER INSTANT ENERGY Algae Samples
with Business Owners
To Sneakily MAKE THEM More Munny - While We Work Together.

How We Bartered for F-r-e-e Gas & IceCream & Met A HEDGEHOG!
 

Thanks Dien,

Neighbor knocks on my door.

His Transmission is busted.

QUESTION: Would I drive him to the gas station to get Gas
so he can Re-charge his iPhone - so he can talk to local Mechanics?

I said, "SURE."

=========
WHEN We GOT to the Gas Station...

Sam filled 2 gas cans.

Then insisted on Topping Off MY Tank.

And

Bought me an ice-cream sandwich when we got inside.

=========
=========
ACTION SUMMARY -

Gordon defines Barter as offering Value for Value.

I didn't pay my neighbor.

He didn't pay me.

AND EVEN If I'd gotten NOTHING from him. My Munny Attraction Systems
Make it a SURE THING that I will get Paid Back - somewhere - somehow.

WEIRD Stuff Happens When You BARTER FORWARD.

I
Met
A
HEDGEHOG!

(EDITORS NOTE - You can Pause here to RUB YOUR EYES. I Didn't Believe it Either. It seems my Neighbor has been raising Hedgehogs for YEARS and I
knew Nothing.)

Sam's Girlfriend Raquel was so GRATEFUL to get
her phone working again...

She ran inside and Brought her Pet HedgeHog out to meet me.

The Little Thing Fit in the Palm of her hand.

Eats Bugs.

Lemme Go find a Pic.

Found this YouTube Video...

How George Bartered THANK YOU Notes to Sell 231 Million of Insurance
 

Thanks Dien,

This has become one of our Secret Munny Making Weapons.

In Fact.

A series of 2 dozen Thank you notes And Special Reports
is The MOST PROFITABLE Marketing Strategy we've ever Used.

That said.

George-the-Insurance-Sales-Manager for Several New England
States is the Inventor. And Doubled Sales in ONE YEAR by sending
1000's of Thank you note.

Where is the Barter?

Value for Value. (You Make A Staffer FEEL FANTASTIC and he or She Passes
You Up the Line to the Next Gate Keeper.)

George is BARTERING For Appointments. A Series of THANK YOU NOTES via Snail Mail To Get His Sales people IN to see the Boss.

BECAUSE so many people are Distracted today - this may be one of the
FEW WAYS to get past any Office Gate Keepers to the Biz Owner.

Step I - George Wrote a Generic Thank You note.

Step II - Set up each of his Telemarketing S-alesmen so their Phone Dies
until they send out a Thank you note.

Step III - The contact goes into the Tickler File.

Step IV - Then the Salesperson phones the Receptionist a WEEK Later.

Step V - She says, "I got your THANK YOU NOTE. That was nice of you.
You need to talk to The Bosses Exec Secretary Mary. And she hands you off.

AND
THE
Thank you note Process Starts over with Mary.

WHY?

Because - at first - Mary also says, "Sorry The Boss isn't Here."

So You send Mary another Personalized THANK YOU NOTE.

And you keep going until you are on the Phone With THE BOSS.

==========
==========
THANK YOU NOTE MAGIC -

It seems that NOBODY Ever Says Thank you.

So George Set up a SYSTEM
which forces his thousands of sales people to Print out.

Fill in name and Address.

Then have a staffer STAMP and MAIL a Thank you note to
each person in a Prospects office.

IN EFFECT George Built a ROAD past all of the Gate Keepers
with Thank you notes.

Result?

A couple Hundred Million in Extra Insurance Sales. Just by getting his guys
and gals to More Decision Makers.

Thanks,
Glenn

P.S. - I Like to Think I've Improved on Georges System. What we do is
write 12 Thank you notes. At the end - in the P.S. - We promise
to send them a 7 figure Case Study IN THEIR INDUSTRY.

And we don't wait for the prospect to ASK for it.

We Mail that Report NEXT. And so on Thru all 12 Reports.
At some point They call Us. Or we call them.

But Since NOBODY Has EVER sent them 12 million dollars of Proven munny
making ideas over 30 or 60 days.

Total Strangers WILL TAKE YOUR PHONE
call!

P.P.S. - But BE CAREFUL With This. We've Used this with Clients who have
gotten SO MUCH Extra Business, New Clients, Extra Sales from current Clients,
SO MUCH EXTRA WORK... They have been over-whelmed.

So now we Find Niches in Each business That CAN GROW by 20 TIMES
without Damaging the Business.

Custom designed Thank You Cards just for you...
 

Thanks Glenn,

We're inspired by this. Thanks for sharing your secret munny making weapons with us. We love the thank you card and although they can be bought anywhere, we can custom create a card, either flat or folded, just for you.

Since we are print brokers, we can get the best deals on this.

So if anyone else has been inspired by Glenn's generous sharing of his barter strategies, and Thank You notes are one of the best ways to increase revenue, then give it a try.

Send me an email, mention SowPub as the source and we'll give you an additional 10% off. Includes envelopes, and if you want, live stamps too, you just write a little note and address it, and send it off.

I think it is a tested and proven strategy, and we have Thank You notes which are "Keepers", even sits on the gatekeepers desk for months... because it is useful too.

My email is [email protected] put Thank You Cards in the subject header please.

Is There Such a Thing as BLACKMAIL BARTER?
 

Thanks Gordon,

Your Thank You Card Idea is good timing.

I always admired the way RedBull Hires kids to run down beaches
and go thru clubs and GIVE AWAY F-r-e-e Samples of RedBUll Energy Drink.

You say, "Thanks for Trying a RedBull. Give me your Opinion."

You BARTER Value for Value.

AND

I think I read where "StarBucks" Gives away F-r-e-e Samples of New
Coffee Blends or Flavors. To LAUNCH a new Product line.

AND

Cigarette Companies Give Away Cigarettes to soldiers all over the world.

Cigarettes
RedBull
Coffee

All three are tough to quit.

Here's What Just Happened To Me
During my Dog Treat/Super Spinach BARTER Test...

Remember my Plan.

BARTER A Sample of the Super Spinach Blend Dust
in Return for a Testimonial - about the Dog's Results.

A - So Last week I gave my Neighbor- Trixie -a bag of Dog Treats
Rolled in Super Spinach Mineral Dust - for her 15 yr old dog.

B - Today Her BoyFriend Showed up in the Corn Field Where I was Cutting
A dead Oak tree up with the ax.

C - Thanked Me for The Dog Treats
And the Nutrition. Because The Black Lab that couldn't walk -
just walked to the Porch and then back to his bed. This took 5 days.

D - Jim was Kind of Emotional because they had
been Debating taking the Dog to The Vet to
be Euthanized.

E - Jim INSISTED on helping me load the wood
I'd cut onto the truck.

THEN HAD AN ADVENTURE with me.

F - Because by the time we got the 1st load it was Pitch Dark.
And I drove back via the Logging Road and a football field
distance down the winding road we discovered a Massive
4 foot thick oak had fallen.

G - And Jim had to get out and Guide me while I BACKED
Way, Way Far Up the narrow dirt road - With branches and brambles scratching the sides of the truck.

Did I mention it was so Dark you couldn't see
Hand in front of face?

H - End of Story - After we Piled the last load on my porch.
I gave Jim the Rest of The Spinach Dust for the dog. Directions:
A pinch a day in his food.

And Later.

IT Struck me that IF the Dog Recovers and starts running around
again... (Which the Many Pages of PET Testimonials that Convinced Me TO
TEST THIS out myself - say will happen.)

My BARTERING - ALGAE DUST - For A Dog Recovery Testimonial
is a kind of "Blackmail Barter."

Because to keep their Beloved Dog Healthy
and Happy - Jim and Trixie will have to BUY MORE.

Which means that ANYTHING
We Give Away that is Consumed - And eaten or used over and over
can be A Profitable Way to Barter for Munny.

EVEN
Potato
Chips.

BECAUSE YOU Can't Each Just one.

Thanks,
Glenn

How an astrologer forecast 2 paid vacations a year.
 

Annie Hershey took 2 7 day vacations a year, paid, all expenses covered.

She bartered her forecasting skills with Cruise Ships, and they hired her as an "Entertainer", she and her husband went on 2 cruises a year, all for FREE and she got paid to do forecasts.

She made scores of friends, and came back all tan with dozens of new clients. We used to have a few magicians here, I think they also bartered for some stuff too, I'll try to find it in the archives.

Thanks Glenn, you are appreciated.

Gordon

How I Bartered a $152,000 Postcard to Get a Condo Rental Owner Client
 

Thanks Gordon,

Funny things happen when you BARTER
by applying the GOLDEN RULE in a Business Situation.

We met Jane Castle at a 25K Event. (Name Changed)

She was WHINGING about not knowing how to apply all the Marketing ideas whizzing around the room.

So I said, "Let me write a postcard as a Test to 200 of your 3100
past Condominium Rental Clients. We'll ASK them to P-AY Now
And you Put the munny into Escrow until they take their vacation."

Jane said, "How much?"

I said, "No charge. You can Hire me after you See the Results."

We asked Jane some questions.

Discovered that Jane was Cheaper than her Condo Rental
Competitors.

BECAUSE she Used ONE CENTRAL Facility to run her
Janitorial And Maid Service from. While Competitors
rented an apartment in each EXPENSIVE Hi-Rise Condo Building.

#1 - We Wrote a Hot Headline

#2 - Explained THE REASON WHY Janes Condos were cheaper.

#3 - PROVED it. Listed Ph #'s of 2 Big Competitors
renting condos in the SAME Buildings as Jane but for 100's MORE.

#4 - Said, "WE DARE You To Call Our Competition and
Compare."

RESULT #1 when Jane mailed my double sided post card.

152,000.00 in PRE-PAYMENTS came in.

RESULT #2 - Janes Hubby called me when HIS Postcard BOMBED
and asked for my help. (He had the WRONG phone # on it.)

And while chatting Hubby Mentioned that Jane
had Mailed MY Postcard to 3200 of her past Condo Rental
clients.

AND He Reported that HIS WIFE was Happily Dancing around the office Answering Phones and Taking Munny.

=========
=========
ACTION SUMMARY -

If Jane made 152K mailing to 200 affluent folks.

Then it stands to reason she made about 1.5 million with my postcard
to 2000 past Condo Rental Clients.

3000 Means Jane TOOK Advance Payments of over 2 million
from one postcard mailing.

I called her office to Congratulate her.

The Secretary said, "Jane isn't here."

For THREE DAYS I called.

Then we called Hubby's Cell and HE Said, "I'm not allowed to talk to you."

And hung up!

Soooooooo.

I wrote up my 2 million postcard story and put it into the Front
of a Copywriting Course Called, "Heroin On Paper - NLP-In-Print-Copywriting"

Sold it for 500.00

And sold dozens and dozens and dozens of copies.

Let's VERY conservatively say I sold 20 copies at 500.00 each.
That is 10Grand.

Remember this was Very early in my Consulting Career
and my 2nd client.

1st client I charged 4200.00 and they made 6 MILLION Dollars.

2nd Client - we Got STIFFED and were paid Nothing.

However.

To Paraphrase Ralph Waldo Emerson - "No Employer Can steal from his employee
because by doing the Job - the employee GETS THE POWER."

In this case - That Employee is ME.

And I've been Making Big Munny with PostCards
and Continuity - drip marketing ideas - EVER SINCE.

Funny Story I think.

IMPOSSIBLE, Really, for others to Steal from you when you
practice Go-the-Extra-Mile -- Golden Rule BARTER.

Thanks,
Glenn

A 52 Million A Year BARTER BOOK Idea Applied
 

Thanks Dien,

25 Years ago Gary Halbert and Bill Myers Told me to, "Turn what you
do into Information Products and Sell them"

You may ask, "How do You Do that?"

One Way is BARTER.

Golden Rule BARTER GUARANTEES you have plenty of ODD, Funny,
WEIRD and Goofy Stories to tell and Sell.

And If you Write your Books in Groups of THREE.

Then You Can BARTER OR Give Away
Book #1 in order to S-ell book #2 and #3.

============

CO-Incidentally we Just Finished Mp3 Audio Book #3
in a series.

So now We Have 3 Books about BARTER to
Demonstrate with.

(EDITORS NOTE - My pet peeve is where "Experts" share THEORY instead
of what has ALREADY Made them munny.)

I
Learned this
BARTER BOOK #1
Strategy from
a Mentor
who
Makes 52 MILLION
Dollars a year
FROM HOME - ON-LINE
Using this
same Idea.

And -Yes I'm Here to Say- it does work.

Let Me Repeat the 52 million dollar a year
BARTER Idea in Different Words.

"GIVE AWAY Your Best IDEA, Book, Mp3, Video
And People Will Want To BUY MORE."

Here is how I am BARTERING
for More Book Sales Now.

STEP I - Whenever someone emails me. Or BUYS Something.
We send a Thank you REWARD back - To Thank them for contacting us.
Or for their order.

Thank You Reward #1 - is a Link to the S-ales letter for Book #1 -
which has a Free 45 minute mp3 file at the end.

STEP II - Then we might follow up by sending them a Link to the
Entire 33 Chapter Book - A RipSnorter!

STEP III - And we then attach the link to V#2 and V#3
in that book series to The F-r-e-e BONUS BARTER BOOK Link.

Here is Why this BARTER BOOK
Idea works so well.

IF people ENJOY Book #1 - They will Want To Listen to
Or Read Book #2 and #3.

Simple.

How I Bartered A FUNNY SERVICE with a Persnickety Neighbor
 

Thanks Gordon,

When I go to get my mail the Neighbors Dog
-across the street- often comes out to Bark at me.

She loves to have her neck scratched.

And that is how I met the neighbor who makes ME LOOK BAD
because he sweeps leaves and Dirt off his Driveway with a rake
and then a BROOM and DUSTPAN.

OMG.

ME? I Wait for Rain and wind to Scour the dirt
off of my Drive.

ONE DAY Last week -
Tom was Complaining about Tree Limbs Falling in his yard.

Showed me a Locust Limb a foot thick and 10 feet long
that he - at age 70 - couldn't pick up.

I Asked His Permission. Then went and got my ax.
Cut it into 4 pieces.

ASKED his permission to Take the logs away and Burn them
to heat my house. (HA! Odd, but I am burning one of his Locust Chunks as I write this.)

AND

This is so funny.

We spent MORE TIME Carrying the wood chips
That flew everywhere From my Ax-Work - on his manicured Lawn - off to a corner. Than I did cutting up the Big Tree Branch.

Not kidding.

His lawn is like the green Felt on a Pool Table.

So.

I BARTERED The Service of Cutting And Removing
an UGLY Tree Limb that Damaged the LOOK of his Pristine
Golf-Course-Like-Lawn

for...

WAIT for it...

You'll NEVER Guess.

***Tom gave me a ONE HOUR Guided Tour of his Entire House.***

(EDITORS NOTE - Folks out here in the Country are very Stand-Offish.
So this is a Minor Miracle.)

Bedrooms, Bathrooms, His office, the wife's office.

All his carpentry work and improvements and photos. Added rooms.
Vaulted ceilings. Fake fireplace. And Tons of Photos.

***Tom used to Compete in SteepleChase Horse Races
across country - in 3 states.

***And often chased Foxes behind the hounds.

In MY OPINION it takes a Real WILD MAN
to run up to a 5 foot fence - on top of a Huge Horse
and JUMP it.

Over and over again. Across rough country-side.

I didn't KNOW this about him.

Anyway.

This has completely TRANSFORMED out Nodding
Only - Relationship. To smiles, waves and Story Swapping.

Thanks,
Glenn

How a BARTER Ad Grew A Catering Company 800%
 

Thanks Dien,

A Marketing Partner of mine told me How She
Bartered FREE FOOD Samples to Grow
a Catering Biz in Ohio - By 800% - before it was sold.

A realtor was called home when his Dad Died.

He wanted to sell his Fathers Catering Company. But it was not doing well.

The Ad Judy Wrote for him
Used FOOD BARTER as a Bribe to Meet Prospects
and Get That First Appointment.

"Save Up to 50% off Your Catering
Bill IF You Visit Our Office And
Sample Free Food for Your Event.

============
============
Here's WHY The Catering
Biz Grew 8 TIMES in 90 Days
Using Food BARTER.

Prospects who saw the ad
WANTED to know how they
could SAVE 50%.

THE REST of the ad went
on to Explain that DEPENDING
on how much you and your
family were willing to HELP
OUT with labor.

Setting up Chairs, Tables, Dishes,
TableCloths and other work...

You could Save a LOT of munny
on Your Catering Bill!

So Prospects who Would NEVER
Normally Hire a Catering Co
SHOWED UP in DROVES.

But they would not have come
without the FREE FOOD as
an Excuse for coming to the office.

This is Genius.

The Ad Created New Catering
Clients that Competitors
Did Not Want or Have a
Chance at Closing.

In Effect - A Totally New
Group of Catering Clients
was discovered.

Thanks,
Glenn

Reminds me of GFS Marketplace.
 

Thanks Glenn,

I was the demo guy at a GFS Marketplace (Tallmadge, OH) and every Fri and Sat we would barter with restaurants, by giving them samples of our food.

GFS is one of the top privately owned companies out there, and they grew big, by giving away FREE samples of their wares.

We bartered easy to prepare, highly profitable, prepared foods with these restaurant owners looking for new, easy to do, and profitable new menu items.

Thanks for the reminder.

Gordon

Jim Gordon - Gordon Alexander
 

Thanks Gordon,

It didn't Hurt - when you applied for the job - that you had the same Name.

Gordon.

As Jim Gordon - the owner of GFS.

FREE LUNCH Barter Ad Builds a Consulting Biz
 

Thanks Gordon,

My friend Phil came up with this.

His humor is kind of sly.

You KNOW the saying - "There is no such thing as a FREE LUNCH."

So.

This Ad began to pull dozens and dozens of phone calls from
small business owners.

Phil said they'd call him up and GROWL. "HOW are you going to DO THAT?"

Here's his ad.

FREE LUNCH for Small Biz Owners.
Investor Looking to Buy Your Biz
& Pay for it out of Increased Profits.
Call Phil at #

=========
Why did this ad work so well?

Everywhere it ran?

Because Biz owners were CURIOUS.

They didn't care about the Freebie Lunch.

But the fact that PHIL was willing to PAY for Lunch
Forced them to THINK - "By golly - this SOB just might know how to DO IT.
Steal my biz and not pay a dime out of pocket."

AND so they called and
went to Lunch with Phil.

Thanks,
Glenn

OPRAH Just Bartered her NAME to Make a Fast 75 Million
 

Thanks Gordon,

Someone at WeightWatchers Convinced OPRAH to invest.

THAT is a sales person I want to meet.

Oprah's name ALONE has more than doubled WeightWatchers Stock Price.

To make Investors BELIEVE she is Serious
Oprah invested 43 million and got 10% of the company.

The article I read said if she s-old her stock today
she would Clear a 75 mil Profit.

BARTER = Value for Value.

OPRAH's Name and Reputation for helping companies
over the years is what did the trick.

==========
==========
Oprah Famously cannot control her weight.
So this is a great match.

One of the PROBLEMS I see is that WeightWatchers has a limited # of Same Tasting Food Choices.

The way they FORCE you to lose weight is by supplying
all of your food.

People Last a year or 2 and then QUIT. Because
they want to eat FOOD that Tastes good again.

HOWEVER.

IF Oprah were to hire several of her PAST
very Talented Personal Chef's to create Low Calorie
and Tasty Food items. (Or just adapt the ones they cooked for Oprah.)

AND a Recipe book.

THEN MAIL all the BackList of Over-weight folks who QUIT
WeightWatchers cuz they got tired of eating the same thing
day after day.

THAT alone would p-ay off the 1 billion in Debt the
company owes.

Just my Opinion.

But I think it IS DO-ABLE.

But IF I were an investor - knowing OPRAH's short attention span.
I'd get in and out within 2 or 3 years.

Thanks,
Glenn

YOU TOO Can Make 1000's from Home BARTERING w/Big Companies
 

Thanks Dien,

Fully 50% of the food I buy is damaged or ripped open,
Torn or spoiled.

Would YOU Make a Phone Call that Paid
You Ten Bucks?

I did - just now.

My 1/2 gallon of Mott's Apple Juice Turned to CIDER.

The Lady got VERY EXCITED.

"Oh, we've got to get your bottle to Quality control. In 15 days expect
a SASE Box to arrive. Please ship the 1/2 gallon bottle Back to us."

=========
=========
ACTION SUMMARY -

I Am Bartering INFORMATION about defective Food Products
that the company REALLY REALLY Wants.

In Return they Send me Munny Vouchers or Checks
worth 5 bucks or 10 or 15.00 - sometimes more.

Pizza wrappers torn - Pizza is stale.

Cans Dented. Labels 1/2 missing.

Pop tops not opening.

Food that melted - got smushed all in a pile inside the box
and Refrozen.

Onions that were half rotten.

On The Side of Every food item is a website.

A - You can fill out the Complaint form

OR

B - Quicker - is to call the Consumer Satisfaction 800#

Which is what I just did to get 10.00 of Free Apple Juice.

Thanks,
Glenn

P.S. - Here is a link to a kindle version of Napoleon Hills "LAW OF SUCCESS" Book.

"Securities and other investment products."

And
He
Interviewing ONE MAN
Who "Got it."

This one young man was out-selling every single person Dr Hill Trained.

Barter Reciprocity-A Neighbor Got His Riding Mower STUCK
 

Thanks Gordon,

This will make you SMILE.

Comes a knock on the Door 5pm Saturday.

A neighbor tells me, "My riding mower is STUCK in the garage."

I said, "WHAT?"

Bill LOOKS EMBARRASSED as he tells me his sad tale.

I - His car battery died.

II - The Battery Warehouse is closed on Sunday

III - He backed his station wagon up too close to the garage.

IV - Not enough room to get his Riding Lawn Mower out

V - Bill and his wife can't push the car out of the way - WILL I HELP?

I said, "Ok. But in MY EXPERIENCE Murphy's Law Disasters Always come
in Threes. So We Need A PLAN B."

ONE - Car Battery dies
TWO - Your Riding mower won't fit between garage from and car bumper
THREE - Might be that ALL 3 of us can't move the car.

Long Story Short.

As I guessed. Bill was trying to push several tons of car Up an incline.
And all 3 of us COULD NOT MOVE it.

But the Inch and a half 6 foot long - Steel Crow Bar
I brought along - WORKED.

Bill and I Use the CrowBar as Leverage on the back bumper.

While Rachel shoved the Tire Chock forward as we inched the car forward.

We gained ground 2 inches at a time.

===========
===========
What is "Barter Reciprocity?"

Often when you do something for others.

They show up and do something For You In Return.

BARTER RECIPROCITY.

In this case Bill showed up while I was Moving Chunks
of wood from the truck to the porch.

And the unloading went VERY FAST
with his help. Specially since this was my 2nd load.

So We Bartered (1)My help moving his car twenty-four inches
for
(2) 45 Minutes of Bills help unloading wood.

If Barter is "Trading Value for Value."

We're there.

Thanks,
Glenn

P.S. - 15 More Chapters of my WEIRD Barter Adventures...

http://archive.enchantednlp.com/products.php?id=115

Bartering w/Ron Lafuddy Beauty Salon Munny Making Idea
 

Thanks Ron,

You should SHARE more often Ron,

You just helped Tony - a fellow Entrepreneur in Canada - sell more
Insurance to Nurses.

==========
YOU SAID -

"A post that Glenn made last year, about a car wash and a restaurant, sparked an idea. Instead of restaurants, I focused on upscale hair salons. I had started someone in the auto detailing business. He was doing ok, but just ok. Not growing his customer base like he should have been.

Anyway, I made up a flier with an offer and went out and talked to some salon owners. The offer was free window cleaning for their customers, on their slow nights. Most loved the idea. One of the salons provided service for a particular group that worked long shifts, 12-14 hours, on swing-shift schedules: nurses.

Time is what the nurses don't have. Money is something they do have.
They also have nice vehicles and like to keep them clean.

A marriage made in heaven.

Word spread like wildfire. My detailing guy picked up 3 hospitals and assorted
medical offices, just from this idea.

Ron
===========
How I Am Bartering with Tony in Canada
to Double His Insurance Sales - (And thus Persuade him to order more of my NLP Sales Systems)

Step I - I emailed Tony - Ron's post

Step II - I called Tony to make sure he got it

Step III - I Walked Tony thru a couple of Scenarios...

IDEA ONE -

I have a car wash client who goes to hi-end Restaurant owners
and offers to Wash Customer cars on Busy Friday, Sat, Sunday nights.

ALL SAY "YES"

And Dan leaves 7 Coupons for a F-r-e-e Car Wash under each
Windshield wiper. (Dan's car wash clientele grows like crazy with this method)

I suggested to Tony
that he FIND Salon Owners ALREADY doing business
With lots of Nurses and Medical folks - who work ODD Shifts.

THEN FIND a Car Wash
Owner Already Doing some kind
Of F-r-e-e Car Wash Promotion.

And offer to SET Him up with Hi End Salons
In return for THEIR HELP Referring him to Nurses.

HECK - Tony should show up to meet Docs and Nurses
Himself. It would be FUN to wash a few windows - then shed the cover-alls
to chat with the medical folks.

IDEA TWO -

Play local car detailers off against each other
to find one willing to WASH CAR WINDOWS
F-r-e-e At Up-Scale-Salons. (In order to get Medical detailing clients.)

Find ONE who will Play Ball
And set up a Referral Deal with him.

========
========
ACTION SUMMARY -

Tony and I have Already set up a system
where he offers Nurses what they WANT MOST.

A Job!

Tony compiles official job lists
and Gets New Job Postings
from His Hospital - Inside contacts.

Offers this F-r-e-e to Nurses.

AND WHILE Chatting says, "Since you cannot get hired without
Insurance we also help with that too."

SO
The Car Wash AND the F-r-e-e Car Window
Cleaning JV Guys

A - Hand out Tony's Cards which offer F-r-e-e Help
Finding Nursing Jobs

B - AND Refer Tony the business cards
of all the nurses they wash Cars or Windows for.

Thanks,
Glenn

P.S. - This is kinda sorta "Mastermind Barter"

Ron got an idea from my post,
Adapted it for himself and his detailing
friend.

We turned around and TWEAKED Ron's idea
And Bartered it to Tony in Canada
to help him sell more insurance.

AND WHO do you think Tony will turn to for
More Consulting and To b-uy S-ales information from?

How We Bartered a WING NUT for Barbecued Chicken
 

Thanks Dien,

I didn't realize until recently but all my neighbors.

I mean ALL of them.

For a mile up and down our little country road seem to be watching me
Cut my lawn with a Scythe. (I get a lot of hand waves and horn honks)

How do I know this?

A - Because 2 farm workers walking down the road asked me,
"Why haven't we seen you cutting your grass with THE STICK?

(I replied, "I've been cutting the back 40 first.)

B - A neighbor came over and asked to take a short video of me
cutting grass with the scythe

I obliged and close up he commented, "Damn your cut grass fast.)

C - Another neighbor stopped his Bicycle to Complement me on
the Benefits of the Aeorobic workout my scything gives me.

(This neighbor goes by every weekend. Dunno how far away he comes
from just to Yell Health and Exercise comments at me.)

Most recently...

An older lady stopped by to ask for a favor.

Sue said, "I've seen you sharpening your scythe with that sharpening stone.
Could you sharpen the blade of my hedge trimmer?"

"SURE."

Come to find out her blades are razor sharp.

But the WingNut That determines the tension on the blades
so they cut grass - was loose.

We got it tight and she tested it.

Worked great - to Sue's delight.

BARTER RESULT?

For the first time in my fifty years living here at the farm
a neighbor brought me food.

Sue brought me some Hot, freshly barbecued Chicken
fresh off her back porch grill.

I guess
the loose
WingNut
was a bigger Deal than it seemed at the time.

Thanks,
Glenn

Thanks Gordon,

Not just LUV.

But Jump up and down and HOWL about.

LIKE YOU. FLATTER them by researching them and talking about what
they LOVE. (Very very very few folks do this.)

Soooo.

How do We Do it?

Why does it work so well?

IV - Kate in Scotland is a friend. She is building a new house with some of the munny she earns from Using her ESP to advise Top Munny Managers. And Stressed out men in the Futures Markets.

I can TELL you from Personal Experience that KATE is Deadly accurate. She was able to tell me about the New Book I was PLANNING to write.

Question: Just we Got Kate to do an ESP reading on a Real Estate client. Then asked Mark Sayson - 3-D Modeler to create a room Based on a ESP Read of the clients Future.

Ok.

A bit OUT THERE. But entertaining!

Way out.

He answered, “I help affluent clients in my Psychology practice Face their Fears by Writing and Directing a ONE ACT PLAY based on their Dreams.”

Glenn, Here's What Dougie the Detailer is Doing
 

Glenn,

There's more power in referrals, than just about anything else.

Knowing that, I've got Dougie the detailer setting up his little
info displays in the offices of all of his doctor/nurse customers.

At 3 hospitals and several multi-unit medical parks.

At the same time, Dougie is also referring his new pals: The windshield repair guy, dent repair guy, tire store, auto repair shop, quick oil change, the insurance guy and a few others, to the doctors, nurses and patients at the above locations.

Dougie also leaves behind a Glenn inspired, specially designed, thank you package, in every vehicle he details. Seems he uncovers specific things about the vehicle, during his visit and advises how they should be addressed. The package also refers and gives reasons to stay in touch with Dougie.

Dougie's info displays and leave behind packages are profit centers for him.

We're also testing an updated version of Don Alm's Lunch Fax Program. Dougie has the customer base that local restaurants owners covet.

Keep those ideas comin', Glenn

Ron

Thanks Ron - A Question
 

Thanks Ron,

You remind me of a question I wanted to ASK you.

Does The Auto Detailer - "Dougie"
Offer a F-r-e-e Window Washing as his first offer to Nurses
and Doctors at the Hospital?

Or does he jump right in and offer "Auto Detailing."

I ask because as a Bumpkin country boy and Car Owner
I ALREADY know what "F-r-e-e Car Window Washing" means.

But "Auto Detailing" sounds SCARY and Expensive.

Thanks,
Glenn

A 227 Million Mentor Taught me How To BARTER with My USP
 

Thanks Ron,

Years ago I was at a 25K seminar and Shared my Experience
with USP - Unique Selling Propositions.

THAT NOTHING I Tested made me munny.

AND I had never met any OTHER small business owners who
got the concept to work either.

A very affluent Real Estate investor told this story
about how you Need to ADD FREE BARTER to A USP before it pays.

THIS STORY has made me
and my Clients Lots of Munny...

Mentor Investor is in line.

Turns backwards to chat with the lady behind him.

SHE says, "Do you have office computers you can't get to Talk to each other?
And want to send info from desk to desk? IF SO - I can Fix that for you
In 15 minutes and it's F_R_E_E.

Drake says, "COME With me, Please."

SURE ENOUGH she gets his computer software working like a dream.

THEN
SHE
SAYS.

"Now that I've proved what I can do. I am really an INCREDIBLE
CPA and would like a chance to look at your books. See how I can
Help you MORE than your current ACCOUNTANT."

Drake says, "DONE."

Drake said, "She was really good. And I Hired Her. Fired my CPA.

Drake went on to tell us that
THIS is how to monetize the USP concept.

==========
==========
MOTTO OF the Story -

With every Coaching Client
we create an Elevator Pitch.

Car Sign

Biz Card

Which BARTERS Something all their Prospects WANT - No Charge.

THIS then Credentials us.

AND

Gives us time to Create the Trust required to ASK for munny
for our MAIN Service or Product Sale.

YOU Ron
have Got the Elements to Craft
Such a USP BARTER Message with Dougie.

NOT sure What you are doing now.

But the MOOLAH Making Opportunities are there.

Thanks,
Glenn

Gordon-double post, please delete this one. Thnx!
 

Glenn - my answer
 

Thanks Ron - A Mega-Hospital Barter Idea for you
 

Thanks Ron,

While Bartering information with a multi-millionaire in Brisbane Australia
he told me something that was going GANG GUSTERS for his
Hospital Supply Salespeople.

I - Salesperson visits Head Nurse at Hospital - is told "NO Not interested."

II - Ask some of the nurses, "Will you test these 3 kinds of Candy
and tell me which is your FAVORITE?

III - Then The SalesPerson Puts her Biz Card at the bottom of a glass
Candy jar - Writes - "Call Roger at Ph# for a Free Refill"
on blank side of biz card.

IV - Fills the Big Jar Full of Candy.

V - The Nurses EAT all the Candy

VI - Call him or her back for a F-r-e-e- Refill.

AND

VOILA!

When he refills the candy - he also gets a ORDER.

Thanks,
Glenn

Remembering Glenn's "healthy chocolate" posts
 

Glenn,

I've been noticing something similar on the receptionist's desk in real estate offices.

A little basket or container with candy treats and the contact name and information for
home inspectors attached. I've seen a number of these, so they must work.

Whenever I see them, I think about your "healthy chocolate" posts.

Another great idea!

Ron

We Bartered 3 Jobs for a 7000.00 Pain/Stress Relief Idea
 

Thanks Gordon,

During my Jay Abraham Years when I was meeting 100's of business
owners and collecting the best munny making stories I chatted with
several dozen Psychiatrists and Psychologists.

And formulated THIS OPINION.

All of them were Badly Stressed and Depressed
from talking to SICK people all day.

And I STOPPED Talking to them
cuz it was DRAINING Energy right out of me.

EXCEPT ONE.

I asked her how she did it?

Stayed Positive and Healthy and Whole. And Molly said, Did you mean it
when you said you can help almost anybody get a job or get promoted?"

I said, "Sure. It's a hobby of mine. As long as the person is not brain dead
and is willing to do more than they're paid for. Go the extra mile. AND DOES NOT QUIT when I give them homework."

Molly said, "I'll share my secret - for which I paid 7Grand IF you get 3 of
my patients jobs - so they can afford to pay me."

"DONE."

Long Story Short - Here is how I got ONE Gal a new job in 48 hrs. THE
REST of the Story - How I got the other 2 hired is at the LINK Below.

A - We chatted.

B - She said, "I got fired as my Boss' Executive Secretary cuz his wife got
bored at home and took my job."

C - "I told her, "OHO! - I bet your old boss FEELS GUILTY and if we call him
he will HELP You get a new job."

We called Forthwith and Son-of-a-Gun
the man kept apologizing.

And Promised to contact 3 of his CEO friends and HIGHLY ENDORSE Her.
And Quick as a wink - she had her job back.

=======
=======
WHAT DID I Barter for?

A Guaranteed Way to Knock out Stress and
Emotional Pain in 60 Seconds or less.

There are ANTI-STRESS SEMINARS all over the world that C-ost
THOUSANDS and we can show you how to STOP STRESS and Stress Related
Pain in 60 seconds.

Molly paid 7K for this Secret method.

We Bartered 3 Jobs for it.

Simplified and Tested and Wrote a S-ales letter.

Slapped a 2 Year 100% Munny Back Guarantee on it
And it's now one of my BEST SELLERS.

Here's the link
But
You
ARE NOT ALLOWED to B-uy it.

You have to Pass my Golden Rule Test First...
Which Proves to me you Take Action.

IF You Do NOTHING - of course it won't Work.

Barter Idea To Sell More BRANDED WATER
 

Thanks Dien,

Thru a chain of 4 People we just got Referred to a Branded Water Agent
or Sales person.

We Bartered a Series of Quick Cash Short Reports
to 10 people at a Mastermind Group.

Jason is one of those 10.

He came up to my Partner WEARING a Dark Blue Shirt.

And told Jane - "I love your Reports and Am WEARING the Hypno Shirt."

(Actually I don't think Jason KNOWS that dark blue has a Hypnotic
effect-YET.)

***I Called him back - VM was full.

***So I emailed him to TELL him his VoiceMail is full.

***And I sent him this idea on how to BARTER F-r-e-e Bottles
Of LUV & ABUNDANCE - Water - in return for.

A - Appointments
B - More time with prospects
C - Deeper Rapport
D - And More water sales

THUMBNAIL VERSION of the Barter Idea -

IF Words Like "LOVE and "Abundance" changes water Crystals to Diamond
shapes - and Words like HATE or Evil - form Rotten Crystals.

OR Grow Plants Twice as Big and Tall.

========(Start 50% in at 2 minute Mark)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ukGr7OV0tvk

========

Then I want to DRINK the DIAMOND Crystal Water!

I've been doing that for a decade.
GREAT TASTING WATER. (And Vital to my Health Cuz our WELL WATER is polluted with Pesticide. And I distill all my drinking water.)

My BARTER Idea for Jason.

A - In local meetings with affluent folks Jason should GIFT them a chilled bottle
Of LOVE & ABUNDANCE Water - and Normal water. Do a Taste Test.

B - I CAN tell the difference.
A Blindfolded Test at lunch might be fun.

C - BARTER Joint Venture Idea - Barter F-r-e-e WAter and Videos
next to the Refrigerator - at Hi-End Open Houses.

I Linked Jason with an Artist/Musician who PRE-Heats
and Polishes Houses So they SELL for more.

Bored Home owners will NOT Have Drunk
Water that Attracts LOVE.

Or

Water that Attracts MUNNY and ABUNDANCE.

========
ACTION SUMMARY -

What did I Barter all of these Ideas for?

Jason's Permission to STAY on the our list
to get MORE Extra Cash ideas.

WHICH WE GOT TODAY.

Thanks,
Glenn
