Statement of Fact …

I make more money selling my services online to entrepreneurs and small business owners who want to create an online business.

But, if you think that eliminates me from being a REAL Internet Marketer, think again!

I get most of my clients via my online marketing efforts and NEVER leave my home.  Not to market anyway.  Frankly, I hate networking meetings, I’ve tried the “go by foot” method of visting local shops and, right now, I don’t even have any relevant business cards, flyers or promotional material.

I’m about to fixt that though so don’t copy me!  It’s not something I’m proud of … just telling you, I still make money without doing all of this.

But in the meatime, let me tell you my story …

It was 2006 and I was sat with hundreds of others Internet Marketers in London at the 2006 World Internet Summit when Brett McFall, Co-Founder, made this statement … he said …

“There’s more money in offering services than products.”

Now, I’m not sure whether his message had such a huge impact because only hours earlier, Brett had dislocated his shoulder and was now standing on stage probably very much in paid, arm in sling and putting on a very brave face or, whether it was because I was already working with a few people but hadn’t seen the real value in what I was doing.

Anyway, whatever the reason, I heard that statement loud and clear and started thinking about how to package what I knew about marketing online and selling my services to others.  By this time, I’d spent the best part of £20,000 (UK pounds) learning this stuff and that conference made me realize just how much I knew about marketing online and therefore, how much knowledge I had to share.

About two years ago, John Reese created a video and said that whilst he had advocated that people shy away from the Internet Marketing niche that in fact, there was a way to benefit in that niche … sell your services to local businesses.

I was encouraged that I hadn’t been put off by the nay sayers, but had carved my own niche within the Internet Marketing niche.

Soon after that, it seemed that everyone had some product teaching you how to make money online by selling to offline businesses and, I won’t mention the name of one of the products I purchased, but the sales copy went something like this … go sit with your local restaurant owner, tell him what you do and he or she will pay you thousands of dollars to up their business online.

Now in theory, this was okay, but the traffic method was to “go by foot!”

And yep … I did it!

I Spent days driving to some of the local high streets in Bristol, trying to sell my services to restaurant owners and local retailers but, thank God for my husband who said to me after a few days …

“Trish, you’ve been doing well getting clients online, just do more of what you’ve doing rather than getting despondent walking the high streets.”

Oh I love my husband’s common sense!

So now, I have my model, thought I was doing okay until Mike Koenigs comes along and tells me a) you could be charging more for what you do (I like you Mike!!) and b) you can sell your products to local businesses without having to “go by foot” (I REALLY like you Mike!) and c) you know Trish, I have an entire blueprint that will help you help more businesses without being overwhelmed and, without having to do it all yourself. (Now I’m loving you Mike!!).

If you’ve spent money “inteligencing” yourself in Internet Marketing but as yet, you’ve not seen a return on your investment because you’re having difficult making online as a “traditional” Internet Marketer, what Mike has here is your lifeline.

I’ll say no more, I just highly recommend you go check it out.
