Let’s dive in.
13. Joint Ventures or Fusion Marketing –
team up with other businesses who have
the SAME “ideal clients” as you do.
14. A Joint Venture (JV) or Fusion Marketing means teaming
up with another business that has the SAME IDEAL CLIENT.
IDEAL CLIENTS are those most likely to buy your product
or services.
By teaming up with them you have the opportunity to
reach a whole new group of ‘ideal clients’ without having to
do any of the work to get them.
What kinds of things can you do as a joint venture? The
possibilities are endless!
15. Examples of JOINT VENTURES (JV’s):
Advertising - get a larger ad (that you share 50/50
with the partner) in your local paper, a trade
magazine or at an event
Getting exposure to a brand new market (your JV
partner can send a letter of recommendation to
their clients and you do the same to yours –
recommending each other’s businesses)
16. Sharing a booth at a trade show (make sure the
organizers allow it)
Adding your product to another one (as an
example if you make organic dog biscuits you could
team up with a company that makes custom dog
bandanas or leashes)
Do a teleseminar, webinar or workshop together
Examples of JOINT VENTURES (JV’s):
17. Examples of JOINT VENTURES (JV’s):
Exchange ads in each other’s email newsletters
Set up an affiliate program for your products
Write a guest blog or have others guest on your blog
Team up with another writer and co-write an article to
publish on both your blogs/website
You refer clients back and forth and receive a referral
fee (anywhere from 5% - 20% depending on your
industry)
18. What needs or wants have my customers
expressed that they have?
Example: A hair dresser always hears “I’d
love to get my nails done while I’m here”.
{JV – team up with a nail technician}
Questions to help you come up with ideas for JV’s:
19. What related products or services do they
want, need or could be interested in?
Example: A dog groomer often hears “I have
such a hard time finding somewhere to leave
Fluffy when we go on vacation.”
{JV – team up with a doggy daycare}
20. What non-competitive companies have a product or
service that my customers could benefit from?
Example: A bridal salon often hears “I wish I could
find the perfect necklace to wear with this dress.”
{JV – team up with a jewellery designer}
22. Free Consultations – Give potential clients a
free 30 or 60 minute consultation.
23. Free consultations allow YOU to:
See if the other person is someone you want to
work with
Show your expertise to the potential client
Interview the potential client and get the basic
facts – but NOT dive deep into their business
Give them one or two tips or ideas – that’s it!
24. TIPS for your FREE Consultation
Set up meeting in a quiet place or do via Skype
Set a specific time and be VERY CLEAR how much
time you are giving them (set the timer on your phone)
Do a LITTLE research ahead of time (check out their
website & social media)
25. TIPS for your FREE Consultation
- Ask SPECIFIC questions
Examples:
What are your biggest challenges related to XYZ
now?
What activities have you done up to now?
How do you feel I can best help you?
27. AFTER the Consultation
If you’ve promised to do a written proposal make
sure you give yourself enough time to prepare it
Create templates you can modify so that you save
time
Send the proposal in a PDF format
After you send the proposal follow up within 7
days if you have not heard back
29. A Customer Reactivation Letter is
sent out annually during your
business’ slow period.
If you’ve been in business for any
length of time you want to build a LIST.
Your list is your GOLD MINE! It allows
you to stay connected and build
RELATIONSHIPS.
