I want share with you a real unique method on how you can take advantage off of your local businesses to make money. There are a lot of steps needed to get this working, however it is not really hard at all. You do not even need to know how to design websites. I will teach you everything you need to know and will also answer any questions you may have. I personally have tried it myself and made about a couple of thousand dollars each month. Also, not only will I show you how to take make money off the businesses, I will also show you how to make them send you a big fat check each month for know work on your side. It may sound to good to be true, but it’s true alright and I’m not here to sell you anything just teach you how to make money via this online – offline method. Let’s get started!
Step 1: You will need to create a huge list of your local business that are in traveling distance from you so you can visit them. You may be asking how you will create a list of all these businesses? It’s not easy, it will require you to work, but hey it’s worth it, so lets get started. Get a paper and pen ready to start writting down the business number, business address and business name. One way you will search for businesses is using yellow pages. Something to keep in mind is to try and search for family owned, private, small businesses. These are businesses that are more likely to need a website and would be willing to pay money. For example, here are businesses to avoid KMart, payless shoesource,mcdonalds,chase,footlocker,modells and so on. The reason is obvious and it’s because they are really big companies and might already have a website.
Another source I look for businesses in my area is through craigslist – “jobs” and “businesses for sale”. Get their contact information and write it down. Another trick I use is visit Google.com and let’s say im looking for pizzerias. So I type in business name with my zip code i.e “pizzeria 92839″. After that you will see many results from google places and other links on the page. I want to list as many ways to find businesses as possible for your benefit. Another great source to find business is to visit review sites like yelp.com and also try menupages.com. From those sites you can find 100′s of food places to find owners business information. Once you get a nice list you can finally move on to the next step, step 2.
Step 2: For step you will have two choices; to call the businesses or to visit the business. I honestly think it is better to visit the business so you can speak to the owner face to face, which will lead you to closing the deal at a higher rate. If you would like you may call them as well and ask to speak to the owner. When speaking to the owner you want to quickly represent yourself and then ask them if they are interested in having their own website. If they say yes, then your in. From there the conversation will go smoothly based on what’s is going to happen.
Let’s say you close the deal with the pizza owner and he wants a website. You can tell him your price right away, which is prefered. The price you offer should be based up to you on how much to charge the business owner. Depends what he wants from the website, what kind of website, features etc.. If you can’t name your price right on the spot, you can tell the business owner that you will call him back with a qoute. Be sure before this, ask the owner what is their budget for a website.
When everything goes well you will need to help the business owner chose a domain name for their website. You can either ask if they have any ideas or find a few for them and ask if they like it or not. Once everything set the business owner will write you a check for your web design services. That’s it! It is that simple. I almost forgot, if you are not a web designer or not a good one at that, there are many ways to make websites. If you sign up with hostgator hosting, they have hundreds of free templates for almost any kind of business you can think of. Hostgator also has a program installed called website builder which is free and you can make websites from scratch.
However if this does not fit what you need, lets say your customer wants something out of the ordinary like online food ordering, Than what i usually do is go to a website like freelancer.com and post a project with details and hire someone to do it. Let’s say someone wants $240 to do the website on freelancer. So you call the business owner and tell him alright my quote is $240 or you can say $400 if you want to make some extra money. This is just an example, remember you’re your own boss! Make your own prices and that is when you will start making money.
