Method #1.
Flyer Distribution Done
Anonymously
Flyers distributed in the right
manner can be an effective way of collecting local leads. The
process is quite simple. Make up a one page flyer describing the key
points of the business. You can usually just copy this from your capture
page. On the flyer I would allow some room at the bottom for you to cut
"tear off" strips and on those strips include your lead capture page
URL. Good places to put these flyers abound. I would start with
public bulletin boards or post boards at local college or university
campuses. Like any advertising method you need to commit yourself.
If you were to put up just 10 flyers around your town in high traffic
locations you will most likely develop some positive response.
*Note - This is a great
idea if you don't have a large advertising budget to get started with.
If you DO have an advertising budget then I would look at some other means.
Method #2.
Traditional Business Cards
Work Too!
Most traditional
businesses that have a website place their website URL on almost all of the
stationary that leaves their office. So should you. If you have
business cards that your distributing try placing your capture page URL on the
bottom. A lead capture page is a much softer sell then sending
them directly to your main affiliate site. At least this way you know
they are truly interested because they will submit their information.
*Note - This is something
that every single one of my customers should be practicing... These are
incredibly easy to give away to people and are usually readily received.
Because the benefits of your opportunity are clearly displayed on your lead
capture page you don't even need to mention it... Let the prospect check out
your website and make their own "no pressure" decision.
Think if you had 1000 business
cards made and you handed out 10 of them everyday... That's about 70
cards a week...
What would you do if you were
able to generate 5 leads a week this way...? That's 20 new people
every month to speak to...
Don't delay... This is by far
the EASIEST way to promote your capture page. We all have a mouth and
hands (well most of us anyways) Get some made and start handing them
out.
Method #3. How
Many Miles Do You Drive?
What do you do
when you see a car or truck with some form of corporate identity
displayed? Probably all the time. You also probably always read
what their slogan is or see if they have a website address.
Wouldn't you
like it if people were this curious about your business opportunity?
Well then give them the chance. And get your website address put onto
your car with your own special slogan. People can write down the address
or remember it if it's easy and submit their info through your lead capture page. You can
also write off a portion of your car, gas and insurance as a business
expense. Win/Win.
*Note - This is another
very simple strategy that anyone can employ. It's not going to send
a river of prospects to your door but if you had some nice vinyl or magnetic
decals made and drove around your daily commute/errands proudly displaying
your business people are going to ask questions, people will visit your
website and you'll have another stream of traffic coming to the mouth of
your lead generation funnel.
Method #4. Do You Read Any Local Papers ?
You probably already know that other people read them too. Small local papers with strong readership can be very cost effective advertising and you are not limited to just the local papers in your own area thanks to the Internet you can search out local papers from towns in your state or
other areas that you might want to place ads in. Typically, the Business Opportunity/Business Franchise section works well but you are only limited by your own creativity!
*Note - The highest readership
days are Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Classified newspaper ads
combined with business cards and vehicle decals are an EXCELLENT way to get
your lead generation campaign kick-started. Keep your ad short and
simple and to the point. Something like
Example
#1
"Earn Great Commissions"
Home Based Business Expanding In Area
Go To www.yourwebsite.com For Info.
Example #2
"Great Commissions - Home
Based"
Want To Earn Money From Home?
Go To www. yourwebsite.com For Info.
Example #3
"Commission Sales Reps
Needed"
Profitable Home Business Venture

That's a simple ad, let's people
know it's commission based and that it's a home business.
Do NOT overlook newspaper
classified ads. This is a time proven method of driving traffic to a
capture page and it requires minimal experience and you don't really need to
learn any skills.
As an EZLeadCapture customer
just let me know before you run an ad and I'll gladly help you with the
writing of your ads.
