How about some overnight success (sort of)?

Today we're digital, but some guys still have paper and ink.

Here is one guy:

http://www.bigreddaily.com/

He sends out bundles of lottery sheets to stores on consignment, they pay on what was sold, and renew. He has them priced at .70 and .75, on his site for pdf, although in the stores they were 1 dollar, 2, 3 and 5.

Mine were eventually given to the merchant, who kept all the money, and I had offers inside.

A small footprint helps when asking for counter space, and when the merchant gets a piece of the pie, even better.

Lots of great ideas, keep em coming.

There was a WSO on the warrior forum a guy claimed he got
permisssion to place flyers on counters at computer stores
for a clickbank repair your computer book. He says he made
hundreds a week from some of the stores and he would
sometimes pay the owner to place the flyers.
It added up to thousands from various stores
The problem with WSOs like that is you have no idea if they
really did this or made up the results. Another guy
claimed he paid a manager $20 to place flyers for a
popular clickbank TV reciepe book on the tables at
a fast food place and got $300 in one day.
Again, I have no idea how credible it is but I have
plenty of links to stories like that. There are many ways
you can do this. Ask to place the flyer for free.
Pay the owner a small fee. Third offer to split
profits with the owner. This then becomes self sustaining
as the owner copies the flyers and places them for you
and gets a share each week.
I did try this once and the manager denied permission
to place flyers, Should have offered him some bucks maybe.
