Default Re: Promoting with PostCards

Hey.....good for you.

I tried the 5,000 to 10,000 "Mailing" thingee MANY yrs ago and got tired of trying to convince biz owners to pay for these mailings. Sure, one could make money AFTER all expenses of Printing & Mailing BUT.....I'd rather do programs where I can profit the Same with the cost being less than ONE HUNDRED SMACKERS!

Sorry.....my days of doing programs with HIGH....INITIAL COSTS....are OVER! My wifee asked me....after I had spent a couple Thou for printing and postage and Mailing Lists; "Hey! I thought you were trying to make money for YOU.....why are you making money for your suppliers"?

That's when I decided to give up on BIG Set-Up Costs!

Nowadays.....I can make MORE Profits per program with LITTLE UP FRONT EXPENSE.....by using "Digital and Video Stuff"!

One of my "Students" just finished another "Pizza Flyer" program where she got $290 from 12 Advertisers and her costs were less than $200.

One of my other "students" is "Ranking KeyWord Videos" for $290 initial and $97/mo and his cost is....50 bux per biz!

And....I'm halfway thru a "Mobile Site Town Directory" program where Restaurants get listed in a "Mobile Directory" for Tourists & Travelers staying at local hotels. I have a way to reach "Hotel Guests" renting rooms at local Hotels. Tourists & Travelers have 3 things:
1) They're HUNGRY (most travelers do NOT carry food with them!)
2) They have MONEY.....to buy Food
3) 99% of them have some sort of Mobile Device

I have a way of REACHING these Travelers for "peanuts", sending them to MY clients and.....collecting a Nice Monthly fee.

Don Alm.....letting his fingers do the "Profiting"
