We Are Hiring Online Workers Ads

WrittenBy:Grace Manotoc
I know intoday's world of the internet, many people look to both sell and recruitonline. I believe thereare a lot of customers and team members to be found offline, by lookinglocally.

One great way to attract customers locally is through advertising. What means of advertising do local businesses use? Is there a daily newspaper? Is there a weekly newspaper? Our local bowling alley has ads on their score sheets, on their placemats and on their walls.

I very recently signed up a new distributor whose only interest was to sell locally. Prior to ever signing up, sheand I brainstormed advertising ideas for her. She owns the local weekly paper in her town and wantedto place her ad for all of her readers tosee. Her paper is also networked with papers all across the country.She is looking forward to placing herad in those offline papers and gaining newcustomers in as many states as possible.

I've had a license plate frameon my car forever. The frame mentions the company I represent and also has my phone number. Sincethe company is known nationwide, I don't need anything more than the company name to let others know what I have to offer. I doget calls regularlyfrom people who say, Do you still sell suchand such?

Very recently our local high school did a fundraiser. Theyhad severalvendors come and sell products. There was no fee to the vendor,just an expectation that a small amount of the proceeds would be donated to the school. I gave out tons of catalogs and business cards to local people that day. I've since had orders that were not placed the day ofthe event.

During the holiday selling season, I always find a few showsto set up at. One particular show is a direct sales boutique. Every vendor there represented a direct sales company. The goal was for each ofus to bring our customers to the show. The vendors all sent outnotices and we attracted several hundred people to the show. Our flyers had the names of all of thecompanies represented, so customers knew exactly what toexpect when they walked in.

My final suggestion for making money offline in network marketing isto host fundraisers for local organizations.I've had inquiries from private schools, nationally known groups and localchapters or groups.They don't all say yes in the end, but getting my information out there is very important to me. I've done school fundraisers that have turned into thousands of dollars of sales for me. Of course I've also done fundraisers that have been a few hundred dollars. Both times,my name and contact information is getting into the hands of local people.

While I'm astrong supporter of using the internet to market your products and opportunity, I also believe you should take advantage of local offline opportunitiesalso.
