Default Re: BONUS Biz Op today, for piles of moolah next year.

A couple days ago I wrote a sales letter geared towards getting meetings with bridal show vendors to pitch them on the idea of being a host and e-mailed 20 of them.

Yesterday, I got a call from the owner of a Dj entertainment company and photobooth.

We had a 20 minute meeting today and I showed him a sample. He was already doing something similar to this on an 8"x10" but they didn't have any offers. The ads were strictly business cards.

While discussing the amount of handouts, I was surprised to learn that he only estimates 100-200 brides per show for our local.

So the number of cards I quoted him on would be enough for the whole year.

He asked me how long my company had been in business and I was honest and told him he was my first customer and I'm just a freelance marketer. He ended up saying even tho he is already handing out the 8"x10" that this is a great idea and I'm excited to say he gave me 5 business cards of people from his 8"x"10 that he partners with and told me to have at it.

I plan on printing a map with a list of local "wedding photographers" etc. And going to the preferred "photographer" and offer them an exclusive spot.

Will update by next week.

People say you can't make money without money. This feels pretty close. Gordon, Appreciate you not only sharing great ideas but doing it over and over until a knucklehead like me finally takes action.
