HOW TO GET BIG DOLLARS IN YOUR MAILBOX-EVERY DAY!




No other business venture seems so inviting, or attracts so many



people than that of selling via mail order. On the surface, it



appears to be an easier and faster way to become rich than almost



any other method of doing business. All the people in the world



are your potential customers; you work from the privacy and



comfort of your own home; you set your own working hours; and you



answer to no one but yourself.





Ideally, you should have a product of your own--something you can



produce at very low cost, and sell at top price. If you are



buying something, advertising and reselling it, in order to



realize a profit, you have to mark it up at least 500%. This is



not an unreasonable mark-up for mail order sales.





Your product has to have mass appeal, and it has to be something



not readily available to your prospective customers except



through you. The product should be such that you "carry an



inventory" without worry of spoilage, aging or other damage. It



should be something you can send through the mail--deliver to



your customer--for next to nothing in relation to your selling



price.





The best money-making product of all is a "How-TO" report such as



this one. You don't have to be a literary genius, or even an



experienced writer to write one of these reports. In fact, the



easiest way is to buy a set of these reports--read them each



over, set it aside and write a similar one with more elaboration



or from a different point of view. Give your report a



commercially appealing title, set a price for it, advertise it



widely in a number of nationally circulated mail order



publications, and you could have something that will continue to



bring in money for you for many years to come.





The absolute best money-maker of them all is a report you've



found a great need for, researched thoroughly, and written from



scratch. Discovering these needs is not that difficult a task.





If you don't have the time to write and market one of these



reports, or just cannot produce one for whatever reason, the next



thing is to purchase a set of these reports with reproduction



rights. Here, you can have a number, reprinted for as little as



one or two cents each, and sell them for one to five dollars



each. The only problem with that approach is that after a year,



nearly everyone in mail order will have a copy of these reports,



and will be trying just as hard as you are to sell them.





Now, if you have bought the reproduction rights to the reports,



you simply rewrite them, put new titles on them, make up a new



advertising circular, and send them out as new reports each year.



There are a number of mail order self-help reports that have been



making the rounds for the past 25 years in just this manner.





Just because you haven't got the time or the tools to write one



of these reports is no reason for not producing one. If you have



an idea or the background material, and the confidence that such



a report will sell--get in touch with someone who specializes in



this kind of writing.., and have them put the finished product



together for you. Generally, the fees will run to $100 per page.



But this is an "incidental fee" indeed, if you come up with



something that has the potential of bringing in several thousand



dollars per year for the next ten years or so. Remember, once you



have it together and written, you just continue making copies of



your original and filling prepaid cash orders for as long as you



wish to stay in business.





You should also have advertising circulars, a catalog or a



"follow-up" offer for every order you get. Many people make the



mistake of "sending their whole store" in response to every



inquiry. When you receive an inquiry to your advertising, you



should have a prepared sales letter describing the item you're



advertising, and perhaps a circular listing in catalog style some



of the other products that tie in with the product of your sales



letter. This is known as the "Featured Selection Plus Alternates"



approach.





When you receive an order for the product you've been advertising



or featuring in your direct mail efforts, include one of your



product catalogs in the package with the customer's order. The



most effective practice is to include an advertising circular or



brochure of a leader item or special-of-the-month, and your



catalog. The main thing NOT to do is include more than a couple



of separate "featured selection" circulars. Keep your eyes on how



the big mail order houses do it, and duplicate their operating



plan within your own means.





The important point to remember here is to be sure to include



something different--something new--something your customer has



not seen or been offered a chance to buy--with each contact you



make with him. Once you've broken the ice and got him spending



money with you, continue showing him products of a related nature



that should stimulate his appetite for greater success. For sure,



he'll never be more in mood to buy from you than when he receives



something he has ordered. So every time you fill and send out an



order to a buyer, include an opportunity for him to buy even more



from you.





You can make a very comfortable income, but you'll never get rich



so long as you're having your orders dropshipped for you. Having



a connection with a prime source that will dropship orders for



you is one of the surest and best ways to "learn" the business of



selling by mail--but if you really want to make it big, you'll



use dropshipping sources for learning, and to back up your



primary product with follow-up offers.





If you don't have a primary product of your own, the next best



thing is to buy in quantity lots at wholesale prices. A word of



caution here, though: do not buy a quantity supply of anything



until you've seen a sample of the product and thoroughly tested



the saleability of that product.





Too often, the beginner is sold a quantity of a certain product



at so-called wholesale prices, only to find that after he had



spent his capital he either doesn't want to put forth the effort



and time to sell that particular product, or that he can't "give



it away," let alone sell it. Suppliers who operate for you



orders, generally derive most of their income from the sale of



these initial "required" inventories. Always investigate and



check out the saleability before you buy anything more than just



a single sample.





Selling your reports depends on your advertising. You have to get



the word out that you have "money-making information" available



for sale. Start out small by using short classified type ads.



Look at how the established mail order report sellers are doing



it, and copy their methods. Do not copy their ads--instead, use



them as idea stimulators for your own original copy. Place an ad



in one of the largest circulation publications you can find, then



use the money that comes in from the first ad to place similar



ads in three or four other publications.





One of the insider secrets of the mail order business is in



multiplying your advertising exposure. This means simply that you



start with an ad in one publication, and from there, expand your



exposure by advertising in more publications. Be patient, and



wait for the returns from your current ads, then use that money



to increase the number of people who will have a chance to see



your ad. It's as simple as that, and it works every time. Try it



and see for yourself.





All of this means as you are getting started with a new mail



order business, you have to reinvest all your business income



back into the business. To do otherwise is a straight line to

HOW TO PARLAY ANY MULTI-LEVEL PROGRAM INTO A MILLION DOLLARS




Multi-level marketing is definitely the way to go for people



aspiring to have more than just enough to get by on. Most of the



world's leading economic forcasters say that by the turn of the



century, fully 75% of the world's consumer business will be



conducted via multi-level marketing plans.





The thing to do is to learn all you can about this method of



selling how it works, and why it works--and then to get going



with a multi-level marketing program that can accumulate a



fortune for you. Make no mistake about it, multi-level marketing



has made a lot of people very rich already, and will make a lot



more people even richer in the coming years.





Multi-level marketing is based upon the idea of each person



involved selling only to his or her friends, with each of these



people in turn, introducing their friends into the program. It's



definitely an "endless chain" idea that has unlimited



money-making potential.





Theoretically, everybody knows or comes into contact with an



average of 100 different people each week. If only 10 of those



people were to give you $10 per week, you would have an income of



$100 per week. And then, if these people were to duplicate your



efforts, passing back to you, $1 for each new person they



enlisted into the program, and then each person recruited



perpetuated the program, you income would soon be astronomical!





Undoubtedly, you've heard the story of how you can become rich



simply by saving a penny a day, and doubling it each day for 30



days. and then, there are the pyramid or chain letter schemes



that we've all been offered. Multi-level marketing, in principle,



works the same way, with the only difference being in the product



offered for sale.





All of these programs work to some degree--because there are



government restrictions and laws against the perpetuation of



these ideas--most of them make a big splash when they are first



introduced, and then quickly die out. However, the concept of



initiating a program that sells itself via an endless chain will



always be popular because it holds the promise of bringing riches



if only the chain isn't broken.





So, multi-level marketing appeals to everybody because it's an



opportunity for all the participants to get rich with a minimum



investment, and very little time or effort or involvement.





It works because everybody wants to become rich. it's an idea



that anyone--regardless of education, background or basic



financial status--can perpetuate from the privacy of his or her



own home.







The basic fallacy of multi-level marketing is in the number of



people each individual participant can easily enlist into the



program. After you've talked to all your relatives, your



neighbors, co-workers, and friends across town, you're more or



less stymied as to new people to bring into the program.





The bottom line is simply that you cannot recruit everybody you



talk to--in fact, if you enlist 10% of the people you attempt to



interest in the program, you'll be doing very well. You're going



to get some rejections, and these rejections are basically what



turns most people off--deflates their ego, drains their



enthusiasm, and in the end, is the primary reason they drop out.





Regardless of what you sell, you must always have a gaol in



mind--you intend to sell 10 units of a product or recruit 10 new



people into your program between now and the first of the month.



you've got to believe that you can do it--want to do it--and then



get out and beat the bushes until you do it! Once you've achieved



this first gaol, you should take a day off and reward yourself



with a night on the town or the splurging you've always wanted.





But then, after setting a goal for yourself, and then proving



that you can achieve it, you should set a new gaol for yourself--



if you recruited 10 new people into your program last month, then



this month, you're going to bring in 15 new members.





You're going to make the really big money in multi-level



marketing by selling "business start-up kits," and not really



from spending time inspiring or motivating the people you've



already brought into the program. In other words, sell the



program to as many people as possible, and count on the



motivational/money-making opportunities with-in your dealer



start-up kit to cause them to put forth the effort to get out and



try to make some money on their own. In the end, and as the old



saying goes: you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make



him drink it--any time and or energy spend "calling back" on the



people you've already sold, is going to cost you money and limit



your gross income. To be successful in selling--and this is the



secret to multi-level riches--you must present your program to as



many people as possible. Close the sale with your first



presentation, and let the buyer either get with it, or die from



his own lack of initiative.





It's as simple as that--the more people you present your program



to, the more sales you're going to make. Don't worry about the



people who have already bought from you--they either will or they



won't and there's nothing you can do about it.





Obviously, if you spend all your time on the telephone inviting



people over to a Special Opportunity Party at your house, and



then another 3 -hours presenting your program to them, it's going



to take you a long time to present your program to 10,000 people



and make $10,000...







And, your costs to rent a hall--advertise--and present a seminar



progarm--will amount to more than you take in. If you have the



initial promotional abilities, the credit and/or cash, and a



really dynamic program--you can make it big, and quickly, by



staging seminar-type meetings at the rate of 3 to 5 per week.



Still, this is expensive and time consuming-- a lot of work on



your part, and not the easiest, most profitable way to go.





The only logical way to go--to reach as many people as possible



for the least amount of money and effort on your part--is via the



mails. In other words, the marrying of your multi-level marketing



efforts to mail order will be the least expensive and most



profitable for you.





You can spend out 50,000 sales letters and multi-level program



brochures in one month, and theoretically make $50,000 from an



expenditure of $10,000 or less--a return of $5 for every dollar



invested, which isn't bad...





Here's our recommendation:





1) Write a short, one-page report outlining the basic Success



Secrets of muli-level marketing. You can tag-line this report



with an invitation for the readers to send for a complete or more



detailed manual or tape relative to multi-level how-to; a



directory or current listing of money-making multi-level



programs; or even a listing of other reports relative to



money-making home-based businesses you have for sale.





2) Once you have such a report, the next thing for you to do is



advertise. Write an ad such as: FREE REPORT!... Money-making



secrets of multi-level marketers. SASE to Your name, address,



city, state, zip.





3) Place this ad in one of the national publications carrying



lots of mail order advertisements--such as The National Inquirer,



American Business, Money-making Opportunities, Entrepreneur,



Income Opportunities, Speciality Salesman or any one of the



hundreds of other such publications. It is our recommendation



that you contract to run such an ad over three issues. This will



give your ad maximum exposure, and should result in an



overwhelming number of responses for you.





4) In reply to each SASE you receive, first list the name and



address of each respondent, along with the date received and what



you send back to them, on 3 by 5 cards. Arrange these cards in



zip code and alphabetical order, and store them in an old shoe



box. Then, you take your one page report and along with your



multi-level marketing brochure--your program--you stuff the



envelopes and drop them off in your nearest mail box.





If you ad runs in the National Inquirer, you could expect to get



1,000 or more responses each time it runs. So far, your cost is



for the ad--the printing of the one page report--and your



multi-level program brochures. From these 1,000 free reports you



send out you should be able to convert about 300 into new members



into the multi-level program you're promoting.





Thus, for an initial cost of $30 for the ad--$100 for the MLM



brochures--and the time it takes you to stuff the envelopes--300



buyers at $10 each will give you a gross of $3,000... And that's



how you parlay your multi-level program into a fortune, using



mail order selling techniques.





One very important thing to always remember relative to starting



a new business: You cannot take any money coming in from you



business advertising, and use it to pay your "everyday" bills. In



other words, you cannot expect to use this money to live on---you



have to pour it back into your business to perpetuate that flow



of income.





Whenever you advertise, in addition to replies to your offer, you



can expect a "ton of mail" from other people trying to interest



you in what they're selling. Basically, you should go thru all of



this "junk mail' and look over, save the stuff that looks



interesting, is well done, or that you can learn from, and



perhaps "lift" some ideas from for use in your own selling



efforts.





Compile the names of the people and/or companies sending these



offers to you. Just as with those replying to advertised offer,



jot down the date and a short description of the material



received--and then send them a sales letter/brochure about your



multi-level program. In sending out sales letter/brochures to



thee people, you don't have to send them out immediately. You can



list these people in an "incoming offer notebook," and then



include them with your regular direct mail packages you send out.



But for sure, clip the stamps and save the incoming envelopes



along with those from your bona fide replies.





5) So you've spent $150 and made about $3,000 in a period of



about three months. Now you want to perpetuate this income, and



build it to twice that amount coming in every month. What you do



is take the income from that first ad, and increase your



advertising. In other words, use it to buy ad space in as many



other publications as possible.





If you first $150 brought in $3,000 from exposure in just one



publication, $2,000 will bring you $50,000 from exposure in 10



different publications. Continue multiplying your advertising



exposure and it won't be long before you will be "snowed under"



with dollar bills, checks and money orders. remember this though,



you cannot really spend any of that money on yourself until the



business is bringing in several thousand dollars per month on a



regular basis. You have to pour it back into the business in



order to allow your business to reach its full potential.





6) Make up a one-page "Money Tree" circular, similar to ours



which included a reference material within this report. Be sure



that you keep the cost to "find out about your program" to $2 or



less. Then, with a listing of money making reports such as



ours--printed on the back of your "Money Tree" circular--shotgun



this out to as many people as possible.





We've had outstanding success handing them out at local shopping



centers, passing them out door-to-door, and by including them as



"ride-alongs" with our bulk junk mailing program. The important



thing again, is to present your offer to as many different people



as possible--particularly to those people with an itch to get



rich quick...





In addition to circulating you "Money Tree" flyers by hand, you



should rent or buy-on a regular basis--as many different mailing



lists on income opportunity seekers as you can afford, and



shotgun one of your circulars to each of these names. The



publisher of this report (PREMIER) has names and addresses of



customers for $35 per thousand, on peel and stick labels. You can



also find inexpensive mailing list suppliers in just about any



publication that carries mail order advertising.





For sure, you should spend the money to obtain a 3rd class bulk



rate mailing permit, and then use it to send out all your



mailings. Start by sending out 250 pieces per week, and then



gradually increase your volume to the point where you're sending



out 5,000 or more pieces per week, and you'll be in business.





7) So the secrets to getting rich in mail order have to do with



presenting a free offer most people will find hard to pass up.



You make your money from whatever you send out in reply to the



people taking you up on the free offer.





You send them a copy of the free report, plus your multi-level



marketing brochure. You can stop there if you want, but there's



lots more money to be made just from these initial efforts.





Follow-up offers to people who, themselves are out beating the



buses attempting to drum up extra income, is the way the game is



played. So, when you receive all these names nd addresses of



people interested in receiving a report on multi-level marketing,



you compile the names and rent or sell them to other multi-level



operators.





Besides including your "Money Tree" circular, and the mailing



list rental offer, you should also include a one page circular



describing and offering for sale, a listing of your money-making



reports. And then, by soliciting co-op mailings from other mail



order operators, you'll have a "pretty full" envelope of offers



going out.





Finally, the one thing you must always bear in mind is how your



mailing package looks to the person receiving it. Your envelopes



should be professionally printed with your return address--your



sales letters should be written to impress the recipient; no



misspelled words or smudges from erasures or worn out



typewriters; and the eye-appeal of your coupons or offers which



are included; and by all means, the quality of your multi-level



brochure. Although multiple colored printing does tend to pull



better that just black and white, you can do very well starting



with just black and white materials so long a the image you



project is all professional. Photo-copying your offers hoping for



the best, just won't do. The more affluent you appear to be, fro



your envelope to each offer contained within, the better your



chances of making a sale.





So, that's how it's done--you can take these methods of how we've



done it, maybe even improve upon them a bit, and make tons of



money--or you can set everything aside and tell yourself that



you'll get started on it next week. The thing is, the



instructions are valid and the opportunity is here and



now--whatever you do is up to you.

BIG DOLLARS


HOW TO GET THEM FROM YOUR MAIL ORDER AD SHEETS





Simple, easy, and with an unlimited income potential! You can set this program up right from your kitchen table, and easily parlay it into $100,000 per year!





You have no doubt heard of the millions of dollars"raked in" by advertising agencies each year, and that's what this business is about.In fact, That's the name of the game with this business!





Here's what you do: Call up the owner, general manager or advertising director of your local "nickel ads" or shopper's newspaper. Tell him you're a mail order advertising agency, with clients all over the country. Explain to him that you'd like to have a regular space-2-columns wide by 6-inches deep-in every edition of his paper for at least the next 12-months. You'll like a headline on this space,the headline to read Mail Order Money-Making Opportunities.You will turnin to him on each of his advertising closing dates, a number of mail order ads. You want him to set each ad within this space, just as if he were running 2-columns of want ads. Then, at the bottom of this space, you want him to set in slightly larger type the name and address of your advertising agency. Below that,in



Italics, you want your slogan, such as: A Full Service Advertising Agency for Mail Order Dealers Nationwide!





By setting up a contract for a "defined" amount of space in each edition of the



paper for at least 12 months, you'll save at least 30% over the regular day-to-day monthly rate charges. By talking with the "top-dog" in charge, you'll be able to avoid a lot of hassle and negotiate the best deal. This is the first step- explain your plan and assure them that you're going to be a long-term, regular customer; and the negotiate for the best, bottom-line cost figure.





Figuring that each ad you run in this space will require 3/4 of an inch, this means you'll have room for 14 ads, plus your headline and name plate. Your cost will probably run between $50 and $75 per week on an "every edition" annual contract.So now, you simply set a price to charge your advertisers in accordance with the total circulation of the publication.





Charge $10 per ad-times 14 equals $$140-minus $50 costs, leaves you with a profit of $90 per week. $15 per ad-times 14 equals $210-minus &50 costs- leaves you with a profit of $160 per week. $20 per ad- times 14 equals 280- minus $50 costs- leaves you with a profit of $230 per week.You may want to start off with a larger space, say 3- columns wide by 6-inches deep, for even more and faster profits. The important thing is to set the first one up, and then duplicate or multiply your efforts.





Just as soon as you've got your program set up with one shopper's newspaper, do the same with another one. If there aren't too many in your town, take a trip to a near by larger city and get it set up there. If there are no "shopper's papers" in your area, check it out with your local newspaper





once you've established this program in the shoppers papers, start making the rounds and setting it up with your area suburban newspaper. Remember, the more you duplicate the "set up" of this program, the more profits you'll make.





Now, you're ready to go after the advertisers... I suggest that you visit your local stationery store; pick up a pad of "fade-out" graph paper and roll of black or red border tape about an eight inch wide. Take these materials home, and on a sheet of graph paper, measure 3/4 inch from the top, and on the line from left to right, make a line with the border tape. Do the same thing at the bottom of the page. Measure in a 1/2 inch from the sides, and do the same thing on each side. Then take a sharp razor blade and square off the corners. You should now have a perfect rectangle as framed by your border tape. So measure down from the top of your framed a half inch, and run a strip of border tape on this line from left to right. This will be for your"masthead". Now measure to divide your frame into 3 equally wide columns and run a strip of border tape as a column dividers from top to bottom.









What you're coming up with is what is known as an "ad sheet" in the mail order business, and it's looking beautiful! Select a name, such as The Trailblazer or Ron's Mail Order Opportunities. Make another visit to your your stationery store,pick up some 18 or 24 point "Transfer Letters" in the style you want for your ad sheet title.





Take them home, and on another sheet of graph paper, write out the title you want to use on your ad sheet. Then take a ruler and razor blade, and cut the paper your title is on, into one strip that will fit into that half inch space space at the top of your ad sheet, the space we talked about as being for your masthead. Simply paste the strip of paper with your ad sheet title into this space and you're ready to start pasting in ads on your ad sheet,from advertisers. Incidently, when you're at your stationery store, pick up what is known as a "Glue Stick". This is a tool you'll be using from now on, and if you'll go with this for all your paste up endeavors, you'll come out with a much neater, as well as easier job. I don't recommend "rubber cement" and most assuredly don't use a household paste for you paste up jobs.





once you've got you ad sheet layed out, take it to a near by quick print shop and have them make at least 100 printed copies. You'll want it printed on both sides, with your masthead omitted and your columns running all the way to the top of your frame on the back side. Then you take your pasted up ad sheet original home and file it as your "master. You'll be using one of your printed copies each time you "paste up" and ad sheet for printing and/or publication. All of this is a part of setting yourself up and getting organized for the business you're about to start.





The purpose of your ad sheet is strictly to afford you FREE advertising for your primary project So, you make up an ad such as this SAVE ON ADVERTISING! Run our ad in your publication- We'll run yours in ours! Checking copies a each issue. Send sample of your ad sheet, and the ad you want us to run. We can begin next week, but hurry, space is limited.





Either type this out or have it type set as one column, one inch ad and place it at the top of the left hand column on the front of your ad sheet; and at the bottom of the right hand column on the back of your ad sheet.





Now, make up an ad for your primary business, such as: 200,000 circulation! Only $15 to have your 35 word ad included one time! Run it 5 times and save! Only &50 for 5 consecutive insertions! Metro Shoppers, your address.





Type this ad out, or have it type set into an eye catching one column by one inch ad. Then place one of these ads at the bottom of the right hand column on the front of your ad sheet, and another at the top of the left hand column on the back of your ad sheet.





These ads, one about exchanging ads, and the other about your shopping paper advertising program, should be run in each edition of your ad sheet that you publish. In other words, they should be permanent fixtures in your ad sheet. Actually, they're the primary reason for your getting involved in ad sheet publishing, free advertising/exposure for your service to mail order advertisers.







Fill out the space in your first ad sheet with ad for other things you can offer, or clip better ads from the ad sheets you receive in the mail, and use those. Once you've got the space on both sides of your ad sheet filled, take this "paste up" to your local print shop and have 200 to 500 printed.





Meanwhile, you begin making a 3x5 card file of the publishers addresses of the different ad sheets you receive in the mail. Each file card should show the name of the ad sheet, the name and address of the publisher, and the date you first





received a copy of their ad sheet. File these cards in zip code sequence. Send for our complete 1983 listing of mail order publications, to get a jump on this file of ad sheet publishers you'll want to maintain... Just $3 from the distributor who supplied this report. Order by item #1550.





‹ˆ



The next thing is to have your list of mail order publications typed out onto mailing labels. These sheets of labels, you maintain as master copies, marking on your file cards, the sheet number each mail order publication is listed on. Ace Ad Sheet might show an M-1, meaning that they are listed on page one of your masters for mailing labels. Millers' Advertiser might show M-6 for sheet number 6, while Zastrow's Active Advertiser might show an M-12 for sheet 12 of your master list.





The purpose of the master list is to save time and further work when you mail out your ad sheet. Simply take your master copies to your nearest quick print shop and copy your masters onto sheets of labels. As for the coding of positions on the master list, this is also to save you time. When you receive a "returned to sender" because the publisher has either gone out of business or moved, you look it up by zip code in your card file, mark that card accordingly, note the master sheet code, and turn right to that page without having to scan through each of your master sheets to find that particular listing. These two procedures will be especially important as you add new listings to your master sheets without having to re-do the whole lists.





An extra benefit will be your ability to advertise and sell your master listing, from your 3x5 card file, of mail order publications at the start of each new year. You could also advertise and sell duplicates, copies of your master label mailing list as active mail order advertisers. Still another idea might be to collect copies to each mail order publication and offer a collection of sample copies. Sample copies of 24 different mail order publications, just $10...





You're almost ready to begin! The best way to start is to include one two sided circular, such as our Money making, Money saving Reports circular, and your ad sheet in an envelope, stick one of your mailing labels on it and send them out first class. if you've got another "special program", you might include a circular for that, But don't put more than 3 circulars in each of your out going mailing pieces. Too many things to choose from will confuse the recipient and result in no response at all.





Overall, it's best to send these mailing pieces out via first class postage in order to make sure you've got 'good" addresses. Any "nixies" will returned to you as non deliverable and you can mark or adjust your systems accordingly.





Your ad sheet is for the purpose of getting free advertising for your primary program, the space you have available for mail order advertisers in your area shoppers' papers. And the reports circulars are "fast selling door openers" that should bring back hard cash, from these other mail order publishers who'll be running your shoppers' paper advertising. Generally speaking, very few od the ad sheet publishers will buy shopping paper space from you, they are almost all too caught up in their own "ad sheet thing" and "trade advertising programs", to see or understand the real advantages of super circulation paid advertising for a product. They will however, almost always buy the "low cost" mail order success", reports, and this is how you get money from them in addition to your free advertising.





Now you're in business! Hundreds, even thousands of sharp mail order entrepreneurs will see your shopping paper ads in all the ad sheets you're exchanging ads with, and they're the ones, those selling books and products, who will take advantage of your offer. In exchange for this advertising exposure these ad sheet publishers give you, your only obligation is to paste the ad they submit as their exchange ad, onto your ad sheet, print the required number of copies, and send it out to all your exchange advertisers.





However, their efforts in your behalf will quickly result in hundreds of cash orders for your shopper paper space. The profit potential should quickly satisfy your wildest dreams with only a minimum amount of work and organization on your part.





As your listing of mail order advertisers is published in each of the shopper papers, you fold one up and send it to each of your advertisers as a checking copy via third class mail. What could be easier or more beneficial to your personal bank account?





It may take six weeks to a couple of months to get everything organized and the orders coming in, but once they start, it'll be like a never ending river of money for you. Remember too, set one shoppers' paper program up first, get it filled up with paid advertising and running smoothly, and then multiply your income possibilities by duplicating the same program with as many other of your local area publications as possible. When you go in to talk to these people about the program you have in mind, remember, they are in the business of making money, and your plan is just another way for them to make money, they want your business and your money, sell them on yourself and your business plan.





So,that's it... the plan you can use to become rich, the rest is up to you... I assure you it's easy to put into action, and it works... How soon you get it started, and how much money you make with it, is entirely up to you...

HOW TO MAKE BIG DOLLARS WITH BUMPER STICKERS




This is the kind of business that might grow out of a



conversation over a couple of beers at your favorite tavern.



Imagine for a moment this scenario: Someone suggests that the



owner should sponsor a summer picnic or softball game. The



question then comes up as how to advertise it, and someone



suggests bumper stickers. And the basics of a very lucrative



business are set in motion.





As you consider this idea for a source of income, your first



decision will be whether to first line up the people willing to



"wear" the bumper stickers on their cars, or the business owners



who will want to advertise in this manner.





A good friend of ours started such a business several years ago,



and he found it easier to sell the business owner by telling him



that 100 to 200 people were all set and willing to wear his



bumper sticker advertisement, because such people were known to



be in the area.





All this boils down to a recommendation that you talk to your



friends, neighbors and co-workers first. Get as many of them as



you can to agree to "wear" a bumper sticker. You might offer to



pay $10 for three months, or $5 for six weeks. With inducement of



money just to put a bumper sticker on their cars or trucks, you



won't have too many turndowns. One person we know runs an ad in



his weekly shopper newspaper, advertising the fact that he pays



money just for "wearing" a bumper sticker. And of course, don't



overlook the pulling power of all the bulletin boards in your



area.





This is an ideal business for constant free publicity writeups in



your local newspapers, plus interviews on radio and TV talk



shows. At first, you'll want as many people as possible to "wear"



bumper sticker ads. What you'll want to stress in any publicity



write-ups or media interviews is the fact that you've got the



"vehicles for exposure" lined up and organized so that any



potential advertiser needs only to give you a call, and you can



launch his advertising program immediately.





Next, you check w a number of printers and determine the cost to



to have bumper stickers made to order. Generally, you should be



able to get a thousand bumper stickers for $100 or less. Whatever



the cost, this initial outlay should be absorbed by your charge



to the advertiser.





So let's suppose you've got 100 people lined up to "wear" one of



these bumper stickers on their cars for six weeks. Figure the



bumper stickers will cost $100. Now, the problem of what to



charge the advertiser.





You should always charge on a "per-car" basis, i.e., on a basis



of circulation, as newspapers do. So, you charge $5 per car per



week, with 100 cars. This comes out to $500 per week, or $3,000



total for six weeks, from the advertiser. Subtract $100 for



getting the bumper stickers made, add $500 as payment for the



cars "wearing" the bumper stickers, and you would end up with a



profit picture of $2,400 for those six weeks.





In the beginning, you should be the one calling potential



advertisers and doing all the selling. Once you've got your first



program organized and running smoothly, your next step is a



natural multiplication of your efforts. Run an ad in your local



paper for commission sales people. Brief them on the basics and



get them out on the street selling advertisers for you.





The best time to launch a business of this kind is during the



fair weather seasons, or just in advance of general political



elections in your area. Once established, however, the business



can, and should sustain itself year round.





The selling "keys" to this kind of advertising are basically the



same as those enumerated for "word of mouth" advertising. You've



got people all over town spreading the word--talking about the



advertiser. And these people are saturating the area with the



advertiser's name and message wherever they go.





It's easy! It's simple! and it works! Compared with other, more



traditional advertising methods, bumper stickers advertising is



very low in cost.





One of the tricks of the trade is in using short, snappy, even



humorous slogans or telegram styled messages. For instance:



Anderson's Cafe---6th and Main---That's where I'm going---How



about you? Another idea is to make the lettering on the bumper



stickers luminous to the headlights of the cars following. Most



important, be sure to make your lettering easy to read, and the



message easy to comprehend at one glance.





Actually, you could start at the front of the yellow pages in



your phone book and probably never run out of places ready to be



sold on your -plan of bumper sticker advertising. Some of the



more traditional places to sell this kind of advertising include:





Taverns Pizza Houses



Physical Fitness Clubs Political Campaigns



Radio & TV Station Movie Theaters



Travel Agencies Trade Schools



Auto Repair Shops Insurance Companies



Flea Markets Newspapers



Appliance Repair Sporting Goods



Special Local Events





The important thing is to always be creative in your selling



efforts. Always show the prospect how his business can grow from



advertising in this manner, you propose, and how your method is



more positive, more responsive, and lower in cost than the more



traditional advertising.





Remember, too, the more clever or "catchy" the message on the



bumper sticker, the more it will make people talk and respond.



For ideas along these lines, go back to the yellow pages of your



telephone book and read all those short, crispy one-liners.





Remember also that advertising is a form of "brainwashing" and



the more people see the message the stronger that message is



imprinted in their minds. Therefore, when they need or are in the



market for the services or product offered by the advertiser,



they'll quickly refer to the strongest, easiest to recall



advertising message in their minds. And that, of course, means



that if the prospect sees a specific advertising message on the



bumpers of the cars in front of him day after day, when he's



ready to buy, that particular advertiser will be the one he will



patronize.





You can expand this business to include magnetic sign on the



sides of cars, saddle-back signs on the back of cars, and even



signs in the yards in residential neighborhoods. As I've



explained in this report, line up your "method of exposure,"



determine your costs and then go after the advertisers. It can be



a very easy way to achieve real wealth and independence for
