The Secret Behind One Penney Sales

Chuck — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 20:51:19 +0000

Markus Allen sent me this note today and I was surprised because I know that Markus does NOT believe in discounting because it usually means the retailer is the one to lose. But when I read the “secret” behind the “One Penney Sales” I understood what was going on completely – and you will too. It’s free to learn.

Most people HATE pennies. Some even throw ‘em away.

But one Amish retailer I know is making a fortune by selling expensive products for just 1 cent.

This strategy is working so well he’s turned it into a never-ending, monthly promotion.

And by the way — this retailer is regularly attracting new customers from up to 300 miles away with this strategy.

“Markus… this promotion idea you gave me is just unbelievable” cried Ivan (the owner). I’m not kidding. He was virtually tearing up
when giving me last month’s update. He’s so happy.

While most retailers are starving for new business, Ivan is hiring new employees and raising prices to keep up with this rush of new demand.

Would you like to know about this great retail sales idea? Get 17 Days Instant Free Access and visit the “Retail” section of this unique membership site.

Here’s the concept this retailer uses:

Expensive items are stacked on a table at the front of the store. There’s a hand-written sign saying, “Everything on this table is just a penny.”

When customers ask about it, the cashiers are trained to invite ‘em to register on their mailing list.

Each month’s newsletter contains a coupon to receive anything on the table for just one cent (limit one per coupon).

Even better, the promotion doesn’t even cost Ivan a single penny… he recruited sponsors to pay for everything including the printing and postage.

Ivan even makes money on the penny items since he convinces his suppliers to give him the items free (to get exposure).

As you may have guessed, there’s a bit more to it than that, but you get the idea. If you want to see some photos of this
trick in action and the additional details that “make it hum” you can check it out when you get 17 Days Instant Free Access and visit the “Retail” section of this unique membership site.

This tip, plus hundreds more, plus new information added weekly make Markus Allen’s site a top destination for learning work at home marketing tips. It’s all free for 17 days! Then their normal price kicks in! But in 17 days you could learn alot!

How To Make Money From “Free”

Chuck — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 16:52:44 +0000

This book “Free: The Future of a Radical Price” is all the rage, and it’s free – really!

Here’s the Google Books download link.

I just downloaded the FREE audio book through ITunes. You can find the link to that here at TheLongTail.com It’s a big audio book. Took quite a while to download to my iphone. I can’t wait to listen to it.

Here’s the free KINDLE EDITION

How can you be using “Free” in your marketing?

As I roll out the revised ebook “Money By Friday”, for instance, I’ll be offering a free report on how any small business that does business with the public could enter the market to provide virtually “exclusive” services for a national company that could create an extra $500, $1000 or even $2000 per month depending on the traffic by utlizing currently “underutilized” space and employee time and turn that underutilization into a big gain.

Boy, just reading this makes me wonder… what else could I be adding “Free” to this ebook launch? Hmm….

Here’s the gist of it from the book’s overview:

In his New York Times bestseller, The Long Tail, Wired magazine’s editor in chief provided a glimpse of the business future that’s already here. And now, in Free, he does it again. As the cost of doing business online drops closer and closer to zero, giving things away is not just becoming an option–it’s inevitable. But if the product is free, where’s the revenue? In Free, Anderson breaks down the priceless economy into six broad categories, demonstrating how to make money in each:

- “Freemium”: Free Web software and services, and some content, to users of the basic version. (Think Flickr and the $25-a-year Flickr Pro.)
- Advertising: Free content, services, and software to an audience that advertisers will pay to reach.
- Cross-subsidies: Give away any product that entices customers to pay for something else. Example: It’s a free second-gen Wii! But only if you buy the deluxe version of Rock Band.
- Zero marginal cost: Anything that can be distributed without an appreciable cost to anyone, like online music.
- Labor exchange: Performing tasks to gain access to “free” sites and services.
- Gift economy: From Freecycle (free secondhand goods) to Wikipedia, money isn’t the only motivator.

In Free, Anderson uses the fundamentals of economics, a long view of the history of business, analysis of today’s rapidly changing landscape, and fascinating predictions to create a book that, like The Long Tail, will be essential reading in the years to come.
- In hardcover, The Long Tail had lengthy runs on the New York Times, USA Today, Publishers Weekly, Book Sense, Wall Street Journal, San Francisco Chronicle, and Los Angeles Times bestseller lists, and has sold200,000 copies.
- Like The Long Tail, Free began as an article in Wired–in this case, as a controversial cover story. Anderson has also been discussing the book’s progress on his widely read blog thelongtail.com.
- As editor in chief of Wired and author of The Long Tail, Chris Anderson is one of America’s most sought-after commentators on tech trends.

Intuit Unveils Small Business Stimulus Program

Helps Small Businesses Save Money, Get Customers and Save Time Through Free Software, Grants and Educational Resources

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. – Jan. 27, 2009 – America’s entrepreneurs are getting a much-needed boost to start and grow their businesses with a new initiative from Intuit Inc. (Nasdaq: INTU), maker of the best-selling QuickBooks® financial software. The company’s “Small Business United” campaign features a stimulus package aimed at helping America’s 27 million small businesses save money, get more customers and save time.

The stimulus package includes:

· Free software and services from Intuit valued at nearly $1,000 per small business to help them succeed. Four out of five Intuit customers agree that using QuickBooks helps their business succeed.

· $315,000 in small business grants to give entrepreneurs the extra boost needed during a tough economic climate.

· $50,000 in donations to organizations that help budding entrepreneurs get started and advise existing businesses looking to grow.

Small businesses have long been the foundation of the U.S. economy. In the past 30 years, more than 90 percent of new jobs created in the country have come from small businesses, according to the National Small Business Association.

“Intuit is in a unique position to support small businesses by offering America’s best-selling software solutions for free,” said Brad Smith, Intuit president and chief executive officer. “In addition, the monetary grants will help ensure small businesses can be as successful as possible, continuing to grow, create new jobs and innovate.”

Free Small Business Software and Services

As part of its stimulus package, Intuit will give away both totally free and special offers of its best-selling solutions that help small businesses address their most critical problems: better managing their finances, getting more customers, paying their employees accurately and on time, and more:

The offerings, available at www.smallbusinessunited.com, include:

Intuit Encouraging Small Businesses to Help Each Other
America’s entrepreneurial spirit is stronger – and more united – than ever, according to Intuit’s recent study. Nine out of 10 small business owners surveyed said they rely on peers for support and advice. Fifty-one percent of small business owners said they feel a special bond or connection with other small business owners, while 53 percent believe they can learn from their peers mistakes and successes.
Tapping into this sense of community, Intuit is providing a way for small businesses to win up to $25,000 by sharing their success stories and advice.
Entrants simply go to www.smallbusinessunited.com to share their experiences and survival tips. Judges will select 50 finalists to receive $5,000 and a Pure Digital Flip Video™ camcorder. These finalists are eligible to supplement their story with a video that will be posted on the site for public viewing and voting. This group will be narrowed down to four first prize winners, who will each receive $10,000 plus $2,500 worth of Intuit products. The grand prize winner will receive $25,000 and $2,500 worth of Intuit products and services. Entries are due by March 23 and finalists will be selected by April 1. Winners will be announced in May.
Helping Organizations Helping Small Business
Intuit is also contributing $50,000 in grants to several organizations that support and develop small businesses and entrepreneurs. These organizations, including The Latino Coalition, National Black Chamber of Commerce, Small Business & Entrepreneurship Council, and Women Impacting Public Policy, represent some of the faces of individuals starting new businesses today, according to the Intuit Future of Small Business Report.
Intuit’s Small Business United initiative is just one example of Intuit’s renewed company-wide focus on helping consumers and small businesses save and make money. While this benefit is particularly relevant in today’s environment, it has and always will be Intuit’s hallmark as it continues to deliver innovative products and services for its customers.

$615 Promoting Free Online Surveys

Chuck — Sun, 30 Nov 2008 01:18:50 +0000

The end of the year is coming up and I am reviewing what has worked, not worked, or might work better. One of the things I liked checking on was this program: Survey Savvy. It costs nothing to join, costs nothing to promote, and lets people start making money from paid online surveys.

I’ve made over $600 with very little effort and NO cost.

Whenever someone signs up from my Survey Savvy link, they can start making money immediately doing surveys. Nice extra money!

And then when they tell all their friends and family, it makes extra money too… $3 per survey THEY complete.

As I’ve said before, it’s like having a piggy bank with cash to “raid” whenever I need some extra money.

Here’s a New Year’s resolution to make now… start today with Survey Savvy you can have extra cash to pull out next year for your Christmas.
