Online is ultimately where you want to be . . . But . . .
It’s a well known fact that only 5% of the people who try to make money online are successful. That means that 95% of them fail to make money online.
The biggest reason making money online is so hard is because it actually takes skill and patience to do it. It’s not quite as easy as the web letters make it out to be.
As you may already know, there’s a tremendous learning curve online. The upside is tremendous once you build an email list, but you will have to exercise patience to build your network and brand. For some, it’s just too much and overwhelming.
You know, having to learn things like list building, article submission, blogging, SEO, Keeping up with (The Artful Dodger) Google who is always changing the game and getting more expensive by the day, Social Media Growth, Twitter, Deliverability, etc. It can be frustrating trying to learn how to generate traffic. Not to mention how competitive it is.
Don’t get me wrong!
Ultimately you have to have a web presence if you ever want to be taken serious as business owner. It’s where everything is going. However, that doesn’t mean you can’t do direct mail as well. In fact:
Direct Mail Is The Perfect Business For Those
Impatient And Want To Get Into Money Fast
If want to 'get into money fast' and take an aggressive approach to your marketing, you should consider taking what you’re doing online and taking it offline directly to your most targeted customers.
It certainly could allow you to make some nice early money and then slowly transition your offline business online. In other words, make money as you learn.
Offline if you have a strong "Free Recorded Message" postcard or sales letter and a decent list you can reach your market immediately. You do have more money at risk because of the cost of printing and postage. It does take know how and extreme attention to detail, because you can lose your shirt if you don’t know what you’re doing. No need to worry, because if you decide to team up with me as a consultant, I will hold your hand and guide you.
Still don’t believe people respond by direct mail?
According to an article written last year by Mal Warwick, direct mail is alive and kicking. In the article he stated that in the fund raising industry more money is raised through direct mail than email, in fact he says that email only accounts for 2 percent of the total funds raised in the United States by non profits, that is only $7 billion out of $306 billion.
Obviously at this point, I don’t have to keep selling you on the merits of direct mail.
There’s not a better way for you to quietly dominate a market with very little competition. I’m living proof. If you want, I will teach you everything I know and you can initially just test drive my knowledge and expertise for a buck.
