Default Re: Valentines Day Money Ideas?

OK.....it's Friday the day b4 VD. Here's what I told two of my "young students";

ALL.....I mean EVERY Florist in EVERY town in the country is "running their buns off" delivering flowers HOWEVER.....the florists that do not have a Mobilized Website are MISSING .....MANY orders for flowers!

Hey! Whether you believe it or not....we are in the MOBILE AGE! In my small town there are 5 florists. I'll bet only 1 is Mobilized.

So.....I happen to have a piece of software I bought from Dave Cisneros that can present an image of ......what their website looks like now and.....what it will look like when I "Mobilize" it.

So.....next Tuesday (Monday is a holiday).....I....and my "students" will be walking into florist's stores with our phones in hand.....asking to see the Owner (When asked "Why?"....we respond with, "to show him why he missed a lot of business on Val Day and why he won't have to miss any more!")

The owner comes out....I greet him and say, "I'd like to show you what your business looks like on a mobile phone!" as I whip out my phone that is already to show my Before and After image.

I point to the B4 image and say; "Here's what consumers saw on their phones last week!"

Then I say; "The image on the right is what they COULD have seen and..... what they CAN see on future holidays.....if you agree to let me make a "Mobilized Site" for you!"

I then WAIT.....PATIENTLY....for his response (first one who speaks now, loses!) His response will usually be, "OK...How Much?"

AND.....instead of quoting a price NOW.....I want "MORE CONVICTION" to having little ol' ME make a mobilized site for him so....I say: "Do you realize that you probably lost 10 to 30 flower orders or more last week because
"Phone Users" saw THIS (point to image on left)???????? (wait for response)

Whatever his response is I then say; "However.....Mother's Day, Father's Day and other Holidays are coming up. Do YOU....REALLY want to miss the orders you COULD get from "MOBILE Phone People"?

His response now.....if not Totally to pay you ANY AMOUNT so he doesn't have to MISS Future "Mobile" orders.....should be: "Yup....let's do it!" if not, reach out your hand....thank him for his time and LEAVE....this guy's either Broke or and Idiot!

Anyways.....thanks again Dien for having this Forum where "Real Entroopreneers (aka Doers) can toss in their "On The Field of Battle" experiences.

Don Alm......long-time Doer
