I was excited to learn this money making opportunity

From the last post, we get so many ideas on how to make money during recession-- which is a good sign.

But one point that most agree is all business owners and companies are focused on how to generate more sales for their business.

Extracted from the post's comment:

"Rick Carter said...

I worked for a jewelry company in their IT dept during a real recession a few years ago. The FIRST thing the company did was offer amazing incentives to salespeople who increased their sales by 15% or 20%. When I complained ("why aren't WE getting bonuses for working harder?"), the response was simple: IT only saves money - sales brings in more money.

During a recession, companies WILL advertise. They may, as someone suggested, make their ROI more efficient.

Great idea Patric, and thank you for pointing out that internet marketing means more than just "buy the next big product launch."


Point made.

Not sure if you know this-- one of the overlooked methods of making money is the direct mail marketing. This 'underground' industry is so huge that those who are playing in it will laugh at internet marketer's income claims and opportunities.

Needless to say, this 'free' money makes me excited and curious to learn. I've been studying this quietly lately and I've found out a few 'secrets':

1. If you're wondering why you don't see old school marketer like Gary Bencivenga selling courses online is most likely he's making a killing in direct mail business. Some of his great copies are used in direct mail advertising.

2. The health and financial niches work very well in this business. Don't ask me why-- they just work. I know this after studying countless numbers of swipe files for hours-- most of them are related in any of these niches.

3. Many internet marketers are starting to be aware of this opportunity and currently using direct mail to promote their products, offline by mail. They might be selling how great to sell online but the truth is, they're selling offline.

4. If you know how to make money from direct mail, you'll definitely make it with internet marketing. The late Corey Rudl (I'll consider him as the pioneer for teaching internet marketing) learned from Jay Abraham and Dan Kennedy-- both offline direct marketing gurus. Then he applied to internet marketing.

5. It'll work regardless of recession or not-- you just need to know what and how to sell.

But it gets more powerful when you integrate internet marketing and direct mail marketing. Use your internet marketing knowledge to get subscribers with their full addresses. Instead of emailing offer to them as usual, send your offer through direct mail like letters or postcards. Then tell me your result. I'm sure you'll make more.

Or forget about internet marketing. You can place ads in newspapers, print flyers, etc to generate leads.

Some might say, it's expensive. It is if you don't know how to make money or master this business. It's just like, buying ads are expensive if you don't know what to sell, where to advertise and how to write ads. But if you know, it's no longer a cost but profit because each dollar that you throw out will bring back more money.

I know of a company that sells forex trading service to his client. They'll run ads and get prospects to attend a free seminar that serve food in a 5-star hotel.

Obviously, there are cost incurred for the ad, food and venue. But they just need A CLIENT to say 'yes' and they'll already be in profit. I know it sounds ridiculous. So is it still expensive? Not anymore because that company usually ends up with more than a client.

Like I said, there are people who made over $100,00,000 (no typo) dollars and they are just like you and me-- not some sort of big corporations with 10,000 square feet office or 100 staff. As a matter of fact, these people run their businesses at home without any fix employees.
