Re: Don, Dien and all you great Sowpubbers
You Bet! Dien set this up and I was VERY Excited about sharing my years of sales and marketing.
When Allen Says (founder of Warriors) sent me a "personal" email when he began Warriors.....I Jumped in and paid the $39 to be a founding
member and, over the years it was a joy to watch Warriors go Up and UP.
However.....Allen recently sold WF for a bundle so....Dien.....I would LOVE to help you build SP up again. Warriors has become TOO big (imho)
and SP is "for the little guy who WANTS answers".
I started a "Marketing Committee" in my small town of Roseburg, Oregon... offering small business owners a FREE "Consultation & Interview"
on How to Get MORE business and.....we have 18 biz owners lined up to sit down with me and 9 other "marketing-sales" guys to offer
Marketing and Sales Help.
I can't believe how many biz owners in my area who do NOT even collect the Names or Email Addies of people who buy from them....their
Customers.
I FINALLY got my favorite restaurant owner to start collecting "Emails" from his diners (by Placing a Tent Card on each Table that says;
Scan this Code for a Special Discount")
You can't believe how many of his Diners pull out their (nowadays it's called) "Mobile Device" and scan the QR Code to see if they get a
discount off their bill. And....their "contact info" goes into the Biz Owners file...for making future contact...when he expects a Slow Day. (Text
says; 2 fer 1 tonight, buy 1, get 1 free"....or...."C'mon In This Eve for a FREE SLice of Marla's Home Made Pie, with Dinner)
Holy Camoly! I can't believe how many biz owners do NOT have a clue as to HOW to "Market" their biz.
Anyways....thanks Dien for keeping SP going
Don Alm.....loong- time Entroopeneer
