OK, so far we’ve covered 3 of the 7 tightwad marketing secrets:<\/p>\n
This 4th is one of my all-time my favorites.<\/p>\n
In fact, it’s sorta like the “Mount Olympus” of tightwad marketing secrets.<\/p>\n
And that is: <\/p>\n
JV’s are EASILY the fastest, quickest and (if you do them right) most profitable<\/em> way to market your products and services.<\/p>\n Why?<\/p>\n Because they let you “leverage” OTHER peoples’ time, money, resources, customers, personal branding and talents to sell YOUR products and services.<\/p>\n Now, there are probably thousands of ways to do JV’s.<\/p>\n But the one I like best simply goes like this:<\/p>\n You sell your product (or service) to someone else’s customer list and vice versa.<\/strong><\/p>\n For example: <\/p>\n Let’s say you sell a dog training book.<\/p>\n You find a marketer with a list of 20,000 dog owners.<\/p>\n You go to this dog list dude and make a deal to sell your book to his list of 20k dog owners and split the profits.<\/p>\n You win by selling more books and building your list without spending a single penny.<\/p>\n The list owner dude makes extra moolah without having to do anything but push that “send” button. <\/p>\n And, assuming your book is top notch, he also strengthens the “trust factor” with his list — making them FAR more likely to buy from him again when he recommends a product (thereby putting more moolah in his pocket).<\/p>\n Pretty simple, yeah?<\/p>\n Hey, it IS simple,<\/p>\n But, just because it’s simple, doesn’t mean it’s always easy.<\/strong><\/p>\n Especially when it comes to setting up these JV’s.<\/p>\n You can’t just say to someone, “Hey! I got this cool super duper product. How about you sell it to your list and I’ll let<\/em> you keep 50%!”<\/p>\n Dumb, dumb, dumb.<\/p>\n These days, that’ll just get you laughed<\/em> at.<\/strong><\/p>\n So how should you contact people about doing JV’s?<\/p>\n Especially if you don’t know a lot of people or are just starting out?<\/p>\n Luckily, there are dozens of really simple ways to do this.<\/p>\n And instead of listing them in this email, I am going to refer you to an interview I recently did with “The Joint Venture Man” himself: David Dutton.<\/p>\n David started his business as a dirt broke college student with no connections, no money and no contacts (just a cell phone) — and now joint ventures with people most of us only read about or see on TV. <\/p>\n Like the legendary marketer Jim Straw<\/strong>, Joe Vitale<\/strong>, David Frey<\/strong>, Willie Crawford<\/strong> and even the stars of Donald Trump’s<\/strong> “The Apprentice.”<\/p>\n With David’s unique methods, you don’t need to be in anyone’s “good old boy” club.<\/p>\n You don’t have to beg, plead or bug anyone.<\/p>\n And you don’t need to be “extroverted” or be a good “bs” artist.<\/strong><\/p>\n All you need are a few (very simple) JV secrets David has discovered, and you can quickly set up profitable joint ventures with almost anyone in your business, niche or industry.<\/p>\n You can listen to this extremely valuable joint venture<\/a><\/strong> interview free<\/em> at:<\/p>\n Ben Settle<\/p>\n P.S.<\/strong> David also has a product about how he connects with marketers with giant lists and influence at:<\/p>\n OK, so far we’ve covered 3 of the 7 tightwad marketing secrets: Public speaking Media publicity Breakfast clubs This 4th is one of my all-time my favorites.
