How I Made an Extra 2 Thousand Dollars This Week

It is, of course, very possible to get so wrapped up in internet marketing, this and that method, etc. that we forget that good old-fashioned networking is still the best way to make money.
 
Good Nugget of Value!

I actually do something very similar to this minus the websites part with multiple forums not related to IM in any way at all, and I find myself making a decent piece of coin each day.


My advice, and I know it may sound retarded to some of you, but don't worry about making money at first.

As a matter of fact the more you let that idea sink in the more success you will start to see.

Instead worry about ways you can make people trust you more. When people trust you more the possibilities are endless and 10k or more per month is easily doable.

Without trust you're just another spammer in their eyes and you won't make a dime with that image(besides a few gullible guys of course :rolleyes:)

Now the question you need to ask yourself is, how can I build trust on autopilot? ;)

Much Success! :plane:
 
Thanks OP for the post. Business owners are out there and ready to give their business to people they can trust. I have been active in networking groups over the years and it has definitely paid off in the long run.

A couple of recent experiences include brief presentations at Chamber luncheons and morning network breakfasts. Both have resulted in small jobs, however, those can turn into larger projects in time.

The other recent development has been with a local printer. He wants to offer website design and internet marketing services to his clientele. I do not have to adjust my price, he just tacks on 20% to my quote to him. I updated his website and when people get a load of that they will recognize the quality in his (our) services. I have a business card with his company name on it and when I meet with his clients he can trust I represent his company.

Trust is a pretty firm foundation to grow upon.
 
Great post 63lincoln,

I picked up 2 more deals from that crowd this past week... another 1500.00.

99% of you guys are smarter than I am and could really make bank from this idea.
 
Great post BTB! I assume you'll outsource the website work, correct?

For these guys it is only setting up a WP blog and that is one of the 2 things on the internet I can do so I'll do that but all the writing for their sites is outsourced.

I'm also tossing in some backlinking as well but they don't realize that until after I deliver the site to them as that is a freebie.
 
Hopefully some of you guys take this, twist it to fit you and your skill set and make cash from the post as that was my reason for putting it up there.

In fact, for the first 5 guys that show me that they took action and got some revenue by using some of what I shared in the post, I'll give you 12 linkpushes each.

You don't have to generate 2K but something reasonable using your particular skill set and they are yours.

I may hold you to that :D

may be a few weeks, about to be traveling till the end of the month. hopefully some of you beat me to it :pirate:
 
pmed u - will try this method but i want to know how you approach the other members

by opening a thread? what section are you posting/lokking?

thx

Great advice. I do the same thing. Right now I can't take on any new customers. It is a good thing to give some of your knowledge for free.
 
the modified car niche is great for this ;)

Loads of untapped but busy forums, most of them have huge car networks with loads of noob bloggers

Well that's my bank account about to take a small dive ;)
 
This is the spirit of business, being useful for other people.
Congrats! :)
 
Got another site this way earlier today.

Help others and things come your way... help others and even if they do not you'll sleep better at night.
 
Thats a great idea also to start offline business in your community i guess. Nice twist on it if you didnt know how to start. Nice BassTrackerBoats as always :)
