Default Hey Ankesh & TW...

Here's what I said;
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++
Now...this may not sound very exciting or lucrative but...the guy I learned from has been doing this since 2004 and has over 500 customers ordering 3 to 4 times a year....and he has never seen any of his customers in person. He gets ALL his orders via email or mail or phone or fax.

Let's see now...500 x $100 Net per order = $50,000 x 3 reorders per year = $150,000 a year. After the first order it's "Residual-Time".

Well worth looking into.

I said "$100 Net per order".....I did NOT say they order "1,000" Cards at a time! He makes $100 NET Profit PER ORDER or more...whether they order 250, 500 or 1,000 Cards at a time!

As for adding some "clarification" and a "Detail" so yuse guys don;t "ASSume ALL his orders are for "1,000 Cards".... the way he "NETS $100 per Order" is by charging "SetUp Fees".

PLUS....MOST of his accounts are "Tradesmen"....House Painters, Roofers, Contractors, Plumbers, Electricians, Landscapers, Interior Decorators .... people who rent Booths at Home Shows and pass out HUNDREDS OF CARDS at a time....PLUS they belong to groups like "Optimist Clubs", LeTIP, Ch of Comm.

At my area Home Show last Spring, I collected Cards from 150 booths and the next week, collected from over 300 booths at the larger town's Home Show. The businesses who rent booths at Home Shows are the "Target Market". These people DO...pass out a heck of a lot of Cards.

Your "average" business probably only orders 500 cards at a time and maybe orders overy 2 or 3 years.

Our local "Satellite-Guy" passes out 150 Cards a week at the local Biz Luncheons. He probably goes thru 500 Cards a MONTH...at these functions alone. So...it depends on the biz.

Thanks for requesting "Clarification". Don't want you guys to be "CONfused".
