Do U Have The NERVE to Imitate a Billionaire at FastFood Lines?
 

How I Got a F-r-e-e Cup of Chili (1.99)
by Giving Away A 1.00 LOTTO TICKET
In a Wendy's Fast Food Line...

Hi,

A Thank You Reward to Dien.

I play a game I Learned from watching billionaire Paul Meyer at a
investors meeting.

Something all of us can do IF you eat food.
Go into Fast Food Restaurants.
OR
Drive Thru the Fastfood line.

READY FOR A SHOCK?

It's different.

You Have to Do The Opposite of Everyone Else.

FIRST...

HERE'S WHAT I Saw PAUL MEYER Do...

Paul gave each one of us 100.00 in cash. Then gave a speech about how
much we could make by following his lead. (He'd just purchased a new company.)

I wasn't ready to invest 7 figures on his say-so.

But I DID Pay Attention.

Lots of people in the room DID INVEST.

Lots of folks.

Too many to be accidental!

So.

I started testing smaller ways to play the Billionaire Moolah Attraction Game.
Anywhere and Everywhere I buy retail. Especially food.

You are Welcome to TRY OUT my SURE FIRE...

GUARANTEED.

Take it to the Bank.

Way to Get F-r-e-e Food and Hugs and Royalty Treatment
AND EXTRA Moolah...

While driving thru the FastFood Drive-Thru Line at ANY Restaurant.

PLEASE READ THIS SHORT CASE STUDY...
Then the Simple Action Summary Directions Below that.

WENDY'S CASE STUDY -

I drove into the Wendy’s drive thru at 8pm on Sunday. I never know what to order. So I asked the young sounding guy on the intrcom what salad he liked.

He talked about something Hawaiian and some kind of Taco Salad. I got that. I was all ready to hand the kid a LOTTO TICKET. But Wendy’s has two windows now.

Window #1 one guy took my 1/2 a Taco Salad order.
Window #2 a skinny dark haired dude with a small goatee tried to hand me a white paper bag.

But I stuck a Instant Scratch Off LOTTO TICKET, with a pink Pig on the front, in his face. Told him about the gas station attendant I’d bought it from winning sixty dollars.

“I’m sharing the wealth,” I said.

The wiry kid said, “Thank you, Sir.” in an amazed voice. Handed me Bag #1. Then Bag #2. I was still putting my munny away. And my lotto tickets. So I quickly parked the two bags on my passenger seat and drove away.

At a red light I peeked inside.

Bag #1 had a plastic container of salad, a fork plus 4 kinds of salad dressing and croutons. Bag #2 had a big 1.99 container of Chili inside.

--------------------------------
--------------------------------
EXTRA MUNNY Action Plan:

Just Suppose you Want Extra MOOLAH instead of Extra Food.

Here's what works for lots of my clients and me.

Step I - Go thru the line and order a 99cent drink. Pay It Forward and Give
The Cashier a 1.00 LOTTO ticket. And say THANK YOU.

Step II - Go around again. Say, "I got hungry." Order something from the
99cent menu. FORK OVER another LOTTO TICKET.

Step III - Order a 99cent small fry -
(Hand out a 3rd LOTTO Ticket.)

Step IV - A 99cent Milk shake - and a LOTTO TICKET

Step V - A 99cent Apple Pie - and a LOTTO Ticket.

Let's ADD THIS Up.

5.00 in food and 5.00 in Scratch-off 1.00 LOTTO TICKETS.

I personally find this appalling...
 

I personally find this appalling...

I may be wrong on this but in my world it is simply not the right thing to do....

So the kid (or employee lavishes you with free food, drinks, whatever)....who is paying for this....

The kid at the window gives you a 1.99 bowl of chili....is he going to remember to ring it in and pay for it out of his own pocket (especially if the ticket is a losing one)...even at an employee discount...probably not...it is going to come out of the owners pocket.....and if the kid doesn't pay then he has willingly stolen from the owner thereby jeopardizing his job....and with cameras everywhere and being monitored these days there is a good chance he will get caught.

Same with unauthorized discounts on food...it comes out of the owners pockets.

Morally and ethically I find this appalling.

Rebuttal of disagreement with my viewpoint is welcome...perhaps I am missing something here.

Re: Do U Have The NERVE to Imitate a Billionaire at FastFood Lines?
 

Cornell,

Part of Glenn's post says:

"i - I'm not alone in finding 20.00 bills at the bttm of my food. (IF I catch it
I go back and return it. I don't want to get them fired - after all.)"

As I re-read his post I don't believe he is saying to keep the money especially if it is coming from a low level employee like a cashier or counter person. Personally I would always return the cash. I don't want them fired either.

On the other side of the story, the pay it forward principle seems to be a workable principle. At the very least, how can it hurt anyone if you tip a $1 or a $1 lottery ticket.

I've also noticed a smile and pleasant demeanor works on some of the grouchiest bastards in the world. I think those are paying it forward units as well so I use them.

As far as morals and ethics, I'll defer to the politicians for a definition. ;)

Have a great day...

Tom

A different perspective...
 

Hi Cornell,

I don't know the whole story, of course (probably only the employee does), but...

In any restaurant business, including fast food restaurants, there are certain conditions in which they will have to throw out the food.

For example, if food is heated, and it's near the end of the night - if they don't sell it that night, it will be thrown out.

Glenn said he went there around 8 pm or so. It's possible that chili, if it wasn't sold that night, would be thrown out anyway (as they can't keep it around in a heated condition, and sell it tomorrow)...

So - it was still good chili. It may have been near closing time. So - Glenn did a nice thing for the employee, and he ended up getting something "extra" for free. But Wendy's may have made no loss, since if it wasn't going to a customer that night, it would have just been thrown out.

Anyway, I don't know how Wendy's specifically operate - but I've gotten free "extra" food from some restaurants near closing time, just for that reason... If they didn't give it to someone, it would just be thrown out (even though the food was still good).

It's not really the customer's responsibility (in my opinion) to figure out how every restaurant works, and whether what a staff person does is "allowed" by their rules or not... If the staff person does it, I would assume it's allowed.

The lesson, though, is the important thing - which is, if you do something nice for others, they'll often do something nice for you in return!

I think it's a great lesson... :)

Best wishes,

Dien

Re: Do U Have The NERVE to Imitate a Billionaire at FastFood Lines?
 

Dien siad:

"The lesson, though, is the important thing - which is, if you do something nice for others, they'll often do something nice for you in return!

I think it's a great lesson..."

I fully realize I'm only picking specific parts of a larger post in both of my replies but I think Dien's words pretty much hit the nail on the head.

On the other hand one could argue Glenn set up the clerks and cashiers so he can get extra goodies by giving them a dollar the first time he met them. But, he would have to know beforehand that he could manipulate these people in that manner.

Therefore, IMHO, if he is manipulating them for personal gain and that is his sole objective, Dien's words aren't exactly appllicable. Since his post and included link don't run that route, I tend to believe Dien's words are applicable.

Just my rambling 2¢...

Tom

Giving free gifts
 

Hi Glenn,

Thanks for sharing this example from Paul Meyer...

I do believe it would work - that giving each person $100, would mean it would be more likely they would go and buy his product, even if it cost many multiples of $100...

It's a great principle to test and use...

In the direct mail field, they sometimes call it a "freemium" (a combination of a "free premium")... Here's a good article about it...

http://www.targetmarketingmag.com/ar...5-words-28320#

However, what Glenn's post really shows that this principle works everywhere! A "free gift" - even a small one - will often lead to an improved response...

Personally, I like receiving free gifts... :)

I should give them out more!

Best wishes,

Dien

okay
 

Hi Dien and Tom:

Tom:

I am really not trying to nitpick here.

I am not opposed to tipping...we all do it...and if we are regulars we generally get friendlier service and a little more attention than others ...especially if we are good tippers....but is that the prime reason for tipping? Or is it because the people really rely on tips because they are paid a lower wage because they are expected to collect tips...and if they do their job well they deserve it?

And I agree money should be returned.

What I found disconcerting was the idea of doing this "expressly for the purpose" of getting something in return....and in the case of the food probably at the expense of the owner and perhaps the employee's job.

I have fired people for giving things away with out express permission to do so. In fact my daughter is a supervisor at a fast food and an employee there was recently terminated for handing out a cookie for free.

Dien:

I caught the lesson....I do an awful lot of pro bono work every week....it is the old saying - what goes around comes around - most of the time.

And yes many of the food places have guidelines for throwing out food and they also have guidelines about giving it away because of liability...but no matter the case... until the clock points to the hour and minute for disposal that food remains the property of the owner and is a profit item that is to be sold.

Now if the person says thanks for the ticket and gives the customer something in return of his own that is one thing...also if the person pays for the giveaway that is acceptable...but to give away his employer's goods - unless authorized to do so is ....well......in my eyes that is theft.

I also have had establishments offer something free just before closing ...saying that they were just going to throw it out anyhow....but it was after the deadline....whether they had permission to do so or not is unknown...but I had to presume so.

I guess it is up to the individual to decide on this...the lesson is good...the "reason" for doing it does not sit well with me.

Let's leave it at that.

Cornell

Re: Do U Have The NERVE to Imitate a Billionaire at FastFood Lines?
 

Cornell,

I think we understand each other. I live in the town of eternal tips, Reno NV. You can't go into an establishment and NOT see a tip jar :)

As an example, we frequent only 2 restaurants in town and the wait staff knows us. In fact, we generally always ask for the wait person by name. To date, my 20+% tip has gotten me great service but no freebies.

I'm not bragging about the size of the tip, I'm saying I bought that level of service. Under the op's post, this great tip was supposed to get me freebies. I would suspect it does in some areas. Not here.

Truth is, I bet (pun intended) if I tried that $1 approach in the dollar store three blocks from my house, the cashier would give it back to me. I don't see her giving me an extra bag of chips or cookies simply because I gave her a dollar.

On the other hand in other cities, the tipper may indeed get something. Your point about ownership is certainly spot on. I don't have employees but if I did and they started giving away my product they would no longer be employees.

OK, here is the bottom line. The theory must have worked in other cities for other people but it hasn't worked for me in this city.

As a side note, we live about 10 mis from the CA line and CA has a lottery ticket sales store on the border (imagine that). I will be out that way this Sat so I will stop in and buy 10 lottery tickets and try the op's proposal.

If it works, I'll say so. If it doesn't, well you know what I won't say.

Have a great day

Tom

Re: Why not suspend judgement and do a test?
 

Why not suspend judgement and go buy $20 worth of Lotto tickets to tip with and treat it as an experiment, see what happens and report back on your findings?

You just may be surprised at what happens and you have the option of refusing any extras.

I seldom ever go to a fast food place anymore but when I use to my order would very often be wrong anyway so I see no harm in testing the idea out.

As to whether or not it's morally wrong would depend on the intention and its not kool to judge someones intentions even if you are a mind reader and think you know for sure what the givers intentions truly are.... Personally I don't believe Glen does this to get something for nothing.

I think he does it to wake people up and break the hypnotic trance most of them are lost in and make real connections with real people!

Cheers,
Steve

Another situation - doing favors for a murderer...
 

Hi Cornell and everyone,

Thanks Cornell - I completely respect your point of view.

One way I see it is that, businesses give out "freebies" all the time, with the express purpose of getting more business.

What's more "unusual" here is that it is the customer now doing it. But if businesses can give out a "freebie", then why not customers, too?

(The difference with tipping is that restaurant staff expect to be tipped, whereas Glenn's idea is completely surprising and unexpected...)

"Giving" something also doesn't have to be material. Some people give genuine compliments, because they know it will improve their success.

One example could be a romantic date. The guy knows (it might be subconsciously) that if he genuinely compliments something about his date to her, then the date will be more likely to end positively. Does that make it a bad thing to do? (I think most guys would be guilty, if it were a crime to give a compliment to your date...)

I think in many cases, these kinds of "favors" we give become ingrained in us as habits.

These are all just variants on "reciprocity"... It works because it is built deeply into our inner human psychology.

By the way, I'm reading a very interesting book at the moment about Japanese culture. This book says that giving gifts is built into Japanese culture, because the gift-giver then knows that they can get a favor in return at some point from the recipient, if they need it.

(If someone doesn't like to be "obligated" after receiving a gift, they know that to no longer have the obligation, they should give some kind of gift in return back to the gift-giver as soon as possible. Once they give a gift in return, they know that they no longer have any obligation...)

If there is a person at "fault" here (which I don't think we know completely for sure, since we don't know all the conditions), then it was the employee's fault for doing something he shouldn't have... Also, while in this case he's probably an employee (because of his youth), in other cases it could often be the restaurant owner (as, to my understanding, it is not uncommon for restaurant owners work in their own restaurants). When this has happened to me, I never really thought about it, but I always assumed that it was the business owner who was serving me and who was giving me the free stuff. (When this has happened to me, it's usually at independently-owned take-away type restaurants.)

There were places I knew in the past that would "regularly" give you additional free stuff with your order... And yeah, I kept going back! (This was when I lived in a different area from where I live now.)

There is one "fish and chips" store near where I live, which is probably the most expensive "fish and chips" store in the area. However, they are probably the most successful too. A couple things they do is, (1) they do have higher quality food, for example, their frying oil seems fresher and better quality than the other ones, and (2) they often seem to give you a little bit extra with your order, that you didn't ask for, for free. (I don't go there often, though, because I don't like eating too much fried food - I'm more health-conscious now than I used to be...)

Anyway... back to the more general topic...

The topic of "reciprocity" has come up now and then... But what I like is that these are completely new "angles" on the standard lessons...!

From one of the earlier discussions here (several years ago), the following link was posted... This is an article about a guy who used reciprocity to get a convicted murderer, who happened to be a serial killer, to confess to his other murders...

One of the "tools" which was used was doing favors for the serial killer... Like getting the murderer an independent medical checkup he wanted, getting him a specific book he wanted to read, etc.

Is it ethical to do favors for a serial killer? The end result was they got more confessions, and this helped to bring "closure" to the families of some of the victims...

Serial Murder, He Wrote
http://articles.latimes.com/2006/aug...tion/na-hess10

(The article is 4 pages long - the links to the next pages are at the end of page 1. The part about doing favors for the serial killer is at the start of page 3.)

Anyway, it's a good read... It was first posted on Sowpub here... :)

Best wishes,

Dien

Addendum
 

Years ago (70's) when I began pounding the pavement in an 18 wheeler doing long haul I would leave tips even though there was a great possibility of never stopping there again.

Then for a year I was doing an inter-province run daily and ate breakfast at the same stop every morning. Pretty much daily there would be 2 - 4 drivers from the company that would stop there for breakfast also about the same time and then head off in the direction of the runs for the day.

There were 4 waitresses and 3 weren't the greatest....4 days and 4 different waitresses. On the 5th day I got the good one for the second time.

After I was done I flipped over the paper placemat and drew a large circle. Within the circle I placed 3 quarters and six nickels (back then this was just a little over the 20%).....2 eyes, a nose, and 6 nickels for the mouth....with eyebrows over the 2 quarters for the eyes....and left...that was Friday and I was the last driver to leave as I had a short run that day and was in no hurry so I nursed a second cup of coffee....most days it was in and out pretty quickly.

The following Monday when I walked in the waitress spoke and said my coffee was on the table and pointed to it. I ordered the same breakfast as I had all the previous 5 days...and she asked if I ate the same thing every day...and the answer was yes.

Now the thing about this was the restaurant was situated such that the windows looked out over the parking lot as well as the off ramp to get to the restaurant...and I was driving for a company with unique looking tucks and a well known name on the highway here... and each truck just a little different. That being said....

On the Tuesday after the coffee was in place....when I walked in...the waitress said it was on the table and pointed me to it...and there sat my breakfast and coffee all ready and waiting for me...and so it was each morning from then on until I switched runs a year later back to long haul. She would see my truck coming on the off ramp and put in the order....and by the time I got parked, hit the washroom, and then entered the restaurant was enough time for the breakfast to be cooked and sitting waiting for me....all because of a smiley face tip....and yes I did keep tipping but not with the smiley face.

And the other drivers never did figure out why my breakfast was always ready and waiting :o)

Addendum...I was switching runs just after the Christmas holiday....in the course of kibitzing with the waitress the week before Christmas I found out that she had asked Santa for a certain sweater but their finances wouldn't allow for it.....so on the 24th of December (my last day on the run), and after I had finished breakfast and gone out to the truck I came back in and handed her a wrapped present and abruptly turned around and left...on the package a smiley face with the words "Just Because"...and tucked inside a little note saying--"Just a little extra thanks and appreciation for making my days a little easier"....my runs never took me back that way again.

Re: Another situation - doing favors for a murderer...
 

Hi Dien:

Interesting read on the murderer.


Yes but this is done with the owners permission as a goodwill to bring back customers...not because an employee received an extra unexpected gratuity that he felt compelled to reciprocate with at the employers expense.

This was what got me in Glenn's post:


Sorry it just did not sit well with me.

If you read my addendum ....I left the tip with just a twist hoping to bring a smile to the waitresses face...never expecting anything in return other than the level of service that she had already demonstrated.....and I never would have provided the present had I been going to continue stopping there as I wouldn't want any feeling of indebtedness.

Perhaps from the above paragraph you can see where my point of view comes from.

Cornell

Re: Giving free gifts
 

Dien:

I whole heartedly agree with this...in reference to my earlier grumble the difference being that it was Meyer's own product here that he was doing this with.

In the past I have added a nice crisp dollar bill in direct mail as an incentive...unfortunately Canada did away with the 1 dollar and 2 dollar bill and replaced them with coins...so now it means a 5 dollar bill if we want to do this here in Canada.

Just posted this response so that you would know that I wasn't in total disagreement with Glenn's post.

Why Gary Halbert Tipped By Giving Cars & A House
 

Thanks Guys,

Gary Halbert taught me to tithe in ways that ATTRACT 10 to 100
TIMES more munny than I give away.

TRUE.

I've seen Gary give a valued staffer a 1 yr old Mercedes.

Others have told me they got nearly new automobiles too.

One fellow tells me Gary gave him a house!

YIKES.

I'm working very diligently at boosting the size of my Tithing too.

Gary generated massive amounts of LUCK.

You can't measure Good-Will.

But you CAN Track things such as Moolah, Munny, Gold.

He attracted multi-million dollar clients. Earned huge fees. And did it
while wearing a T-shirt or hat that said, "All Clients Suck."

(EDITOR'S NOTE - Just spotted an article about owner of 421 million
dollar "Padagonia" who ran a Wall Street Journal and Magazine ad
with a headline - "Don't Buy This Shirt." Got 1000's of new buyers.)

BACK TO
1.00
LOTTO TIPPING.

The Goodwill and Reciprocity Rewards are amazing.

But it's tough to get others started.

So.

I start small.

Tithing takes Salesmanship. You try walking up to a total stranger and giving
them a 1.00 bill or a 20.00 - many can't do it.

But a 1.00 LOTTO ticket is easier.

AND
let's Focus
on EMPATHY.

IF you've ever worked as a waiter/waitress.

You've been ignored.
Insulted.
Verbally and physically assaulted. (Pushed, shoved, tripped)
Cursed.
Fired because a customer complained to the manager.

ALL of the above have happened to me.
And I've seen much worse done to others.

THINK.

COGITATE.

Slow down and consider what happens if your waiter or waitress FEARS YOU?

DISLIKES YOU.

Expects - at best - to be ignored and taken for granted.

HA!

This is Exactly how - you - a Stranger are perceived.

But...

JUST SUPPOSE Your Cashier LOVES YOU!

What If you "Smile, Say "Please and "Thank you AND Hand out LOTTO Tickets.

You Become a God or Goddess (In contrast to others)
in the eyes of the wait staff.

TEN YEARS AGO Dan Kennedy told me he tips with 20.00 bills.

WANNA' BET he's not using 100.00 bills today?

TRY IT.

Thanks,
Glenn Osborn

P.S. - My Wendy's Example above doesn't happen all the time. Especially
when I visit a new Restaurant.

But here's what DOES HAPPEN.

I get EXTRA- ORDINARY service and food.

AND

Every time I eat with a client.

I send 5 bucks back to the chef. Tip the waiters and wait staff with
Scratch Off Lotto tickets and 1.00 bills each time they visit the table.

Others get their food late. It's over-cooked. Under-cooked. Of poor
quality. And all kinds of other problems crop up.

ME?

The waitress and cooks coddle me. Hover and know my name.

WHY?

Because I GIVE Their Tip BEFORE the meal. Smile and Praise and say, "Thank You."

All the F-r-e-e stuff - AT THE Restaurant - is a fun way to measure the
POSITIVE ENERGY you've created.

But the Big PayDay comes from opening that big universal door.
Pay-it-Forward pays off. Not right away - but always.

Re: Why Gary Halbert Tipped By Giving Cars & A House
 

Hi Glenn,

Thanks again for sharing this... I believe it's a hugely important tip...

Of course, having a generally "generous" spirit can help too, in your day-to-day dealings with people. It cements relationships... People want to help you too, if they've received help from you.

One lesson I've had in the past is that... as the saying goes, "no man is an island" (or woman, for that matter).

Every success you've had, in 99.9% of cases, there have been others who helped you in some way. Whether they were mentors, colleagues, partners, suppliers, friends, family, and so on...

Certain relationships are important. The right relationships open the right doors - sometimes when you least expect it!

I like to do favors for people... and I know, in return, people have done favors for me, sometimes just out of nowhere, but also sometimes at a time when I critically needed the help. I didn't "plan" it that way - but in retrospect, I've noticed that, this is the way the world works...

Thanks again, Glenn!

Best wishes,

Dien

VIP Client Gets Nearly Free Lunch
 

Thanks Guys,

Great Feedback as always.

I didn't Intend to be controversial.

Anyway.

A Note from a client who doubled his income - last year with my help.

Glenn Osborn

-------------------------
-------------------------
My $1 bill testimonials are too numerous to share or remember because I am
always sharing, it has been ingrained in me by my parents and grandparents.

Friday morning, lady next store needed quarters for washer so she could wash her husband's clothes(they are both retired), so he could go out and cut our's and the neighbor's lawn. Mrs. M had the $1 and she wanted the quarters in exchange.

I gave her the quarters and didn't take the $1 bill in return...

THAT would go against the grain of GIVING away $1 bills, right? When I got home from working early Friday evening, Mrs. M came out with a container of leftovers for me to eat for dinner.

Thanks again for all your help.

What Ax Murderers and Waiters & Waitresses Have in Common
 

Thanks Cornell,

Years ago I worked as a Janitor and a waiter so I have a lot of Empathy for
service people.

AND

I use Instant LOTTO scratchers to get time to talk with them. And then
measure my progress toward deeper and deeper rapport by any Rewards I get Back.

Smiles.
Laughter.
Giggles.
Better service.
Extra food
and
Extra Cash back and Positive Energy.

BECAUSE of My CHATS with Waiters and Waitresses. (And my own personal
Experience.) I know they are ignored, cussed at, spat upon and all kinds of
other nasty stuff - by customers who think just cuz they are paying
they can Mis-treat people.

THIS is Why I Think Service People Are - in many ways - treated like Mass
Murderers. Very Rarely do they get a kind word.

So when You Treat Them Like VIP's
they reciprocate.

A Recent Restaurant Case Study -

This past weekend my Dad and I went to a Buffet Restaurant. The cashier
was white haired, tired and looked more dead than alive.

Had all the PEP of a convict breaking rocks with a maul.

So.

I revved up my Energy and Twinkled at her.

While Dad was reading the menu on the wall I told Sally, "I'd like to Thank
and Reward you for helping my father and me. I was just at a gas station
where the clerk won 60 BUCKS!"

BIG SMILE.

"And I want to Share His GOOD LUCK with you! So here's a Instant Scratch
Off Lotto ticket - Just for you!"

Well.

This woman LIT up. Her cheeks got color in them. She smiled. She said
"THANK YOU" and actually stuttered like a little girl.

She stood straighter and seemed invigorated.

I - We got seated close to the buffet.

II - She went into the Kitchen and Actually DRAGGED a waitress over to our
table.

III - She gave us 4.00 back. In the form of senior citizen discounts
tho I don't qualify. And restaurant policy is that staffers DO NOT give the senior citizen discount unless asked.

Thanks,
Glenn Osborn

P.S. - This is the REASON WHY I have the BRASS to offer a 200%
Munny back Guarantee on my Pay-it-Forward System.

How free falafel balls helped a restaurant succeed....
 

Hi Don,

It was a smart solution...

I can see how giving them a "gift" like that would turn them from a "bargain-hunting" mentality, to more of a "reciprocity" mentality, where they may even feel a debt of gratitude...

My view on these kinds of things is, it's "win/win" for everyone. The shop owner wins, and the customer wins, too!

I used to live in a place where I was a short walking distance from a "falafel" restaurant in a popular strip of restaurants and other small stores. Pretty much every weekend (since it was a "touristy" area), at around lunch time, they'd have one of their staff standing outside the restaurant with a tray of falafel balls, holding a pair of tongs, and offering a free falafel ball to everyone who walked by.

I took one whenever I passed by and saw them offering one. Yes, I knew it was a marketing tactic to get me to eat at the restaurant. And yes, as a result, I did eat there sometimes!

I loved the free falafel balls - and even though I knew why they were doing it, I still loved it!

They kept doing it, week after week, so it must have been working for them... (I've moved since then, so I'm not sure if they're still doing it today...)

Best wishes,

Dien

PINK Metal Tie $ Idea I Borrowed From Dan Kennedy
 

Thanks Dien,

Dan Kennedy told me he thinks Cashiers and Waitresses are under-paid
and under-appreciated.

So he tips them with 20.00 bills.

In Fact - he keeps Draws and drawers full of 20's so he won't run out.

----------
Gary Halbert believed HOT PINK attracted munny.

So he had all his Mercedes Painted PINK.

I've talked to a lot of his "copy cubs" - who drove for him cuz he ran into
things.

And Gary gave away munny like a drunken sailer.

-----------
DID You Know Dan worked for Gary during his youth?

Well.

I decided to combine, shake/bake and P rofit from the example of both men.

A - I give away Munny and Lotto tickets
B - I wear a HOT PINK Chain Maile Tie

RESULT - I attract the owner/manager in every store or business I enter.

Car Dealership - I save thousands cuz I'm negotiating with the owner.
(Who BUYS the tie right off me.)

Whole Foods - I meet tons of young staffers AND the Manager.
(They give me discounts and free stuff.)

Restaurants - I ask for the #1 Waitress. Hook her up so she wears my METAL TIE - while I'm there.

Her TIPS go thru the roof.

Always
Always.

She becomes the center of attn.

I always meet the manager. (Sometimes both manager and waitress order
a HOT PINK TIE.)

ThanX Don Alm - Fantastic Idea - Browser Buck Coupons
 

Thanks Don,

Actually the Browser Buck Coupon is BRILLIANT.

A PR Expert just referred me to a Richard Branson Ad.

It's a Video of 3 People COMPLAINING they are Addicted
to Virgin Airlines (Something something VIP Program)

Coupons - Yada Yada - nobody cares

But if You GIVE THEM A DOLLAR - Hooray.

Same with Sir Richard.

The Rascal really makes his Benefits list INTERESTING by putting it into
the form of a Complaint.

(Exact same reason I wear a PINK Chain Maile tie. If you don't get ATTN
First - nobody LISTENS and VALUES what you say.)

Anyway.

The link to the Video is below.

Bet you didn't know Richard Branson Borrowed a Psychological concept from you!

Thanks,
Glenn

Pre-written 3 by 5 Thank You Notes (He enters the name)

Dear Glenn,

"I gave a waitress a Thank you card.
All I told her was (I appreciate your smile.
And the effort you make to make me feel welcome.)

"Now I get Free Coffee when I go in.
And she HUGS me everytime I show UP.

Although the Cook makes me nervous. He GLARES at me.

What up with THAT?"
