Default Re: What's Your New Years Resolution for 2015?

My Main Goal in 2015;

To get 100 biznesses......
1) paying me $500 or more a Month!.....
and.....
2) without needing my attention

So that I can turn the biz over to my daughter and youngest son (who've had some bad financial things happen to them)

How will I accomplish this?

1) choosing niches with "high-paying" clients......like;
Senior Living facilities......Dentists.....Dui Lawyers.....Personal Injury Lawyers .....Divorce Attorneys.....Home Remodelers......and Roofers

2) Branding my PLR "Promo" Videos (from Dave Cisneros, Nick Mancuso & Mark Helton)........with Niche Logos & Contact Info (with strong Call to Action)...and Phone Numbers I CONTROL (CallFire or Twilio)

3) Ranking videos for Niche Keywords (emergency roofer, emergency dentist,......etc ) I call them "Keyword Videos".

4) When I see that a few calls have gone to the Niche Biz I chose....I call them and tell them that twas I.....who caused the calls to come in and if they'd like to continue receiving these calls......it will cost them $497 (or more) per month

Now.....each of the calls has a "whisper" effect (Here's another lead from Don Alm).....so my clients KNOW tis I who caused the call.

So..... because I don't "fart-around" with charging per call.....whether a call is an actual Lead or not.....and just charge a flat fee......there's little or no maintenance......so....I can pass these accounts to anyone.

So...wishing ALL Sowpubers a Prosperous 2015

Hi Don,

Sounds like a great system...

Almost a kind of "set it and forget it" approach, where you can let it do the monetary version of "rotisserie cooking" while you can do other things...

(Including setting up more systems!)

Thanks for sharing!

Best wishes,

Dien

(with a tip of the hat to Ron Popeil...)

I had the pleasure of meeting Ron Popeil when I was living in the Aspen area.

His money-making "system" was to create a product, make a prototype, make a Video Commercial, get a Store Chain like Walgreen's to pay to be on the Tag (where to buy) and commit to paying for X units and X #of commercials THEN......he would produce the units.

I tried the same thing when a plastic Co asked me if I could help them promote their product. It was a plastic bar with a paddle on each end and a rubber ball hanging from a rubber string in the middle of the bar.

The idea was to get the ball swinging so you could bounce it back and forth between the paddles.

Well.....I made an agreement where I'd get 5cents from each one sold. I put together a commercial for them and had Walgreen's interested when the owner of the Plastic Co phoned me one morning and told me Walgreen's had cancelled.

It turned out that we called the product "Teeny-Bopper" and......Walgreens discovered that "Teeny-Bopper" had become a "bad name" in England. So, we gave it up.

However, that was 35 yrs go. Maybe the thing would go, now. But, I'm not getting back into THAT biz ever again.
