As usual this morning I went to get my cup of DD coffee and read the paper. And as usual- DD had a sign out front offering free coffee to police officers.
THEY DO THIS REGULARLY – for teachers- firemen, soldiers and any other public servant..
AND IT’S VERY VERY SMART FOR A NUMBER OF REASONS.
1. If your business is struggling try to get people in the door. EVEN if you are giving something away you are hopefully gaining a customer. AND that customer is likely to tell their friends.
2. This is a great way to GET FREE PR for your business.
3. The police officers that come in and get free coffee will also mostlikely BUY a doughnut- bagel or other item.
4. The promotion is for a fixed period of time but once that person comes in 3-4 times it now becomes a habit with them and they will liekly continue to come in and buy.
I KNOW YOU ARE A SERVICE BUSINESS — SO HOW CAN YOU DO THIS?
How about getting with the PTA of your school- or the police and fire departments.. or any other group for that matter and offer a % of your fees to their charity- like the fallen firefighters or police officers.
Or the school or religous instituions groups.
FOR EVERY LOAN WE CLOSE- OR RETURN WE PREPARE ( YOU NAME THE SERVICE) X % – Or a set dollar figure is donated.
TRY IT — it sure beats doing nothing and the PR and GOODWILL You get from it is awsome and of course very very profitable.

Now this is a great PR idea and if you call the newspaper or local radio station you might get some more free advertising.
Thanks Brian,

It may give me some quiet or sane time in my disorganized – undisciplined daily “non-schedule”. Btw – thank you for the 2 e-books, I have heard possitive things about them. HK

Great points Brian. As for me, I have 3 main marketing strategies and I will be marketing all 3 very hard ALL year. It is unwise in this market to put all your “eggs in one basket” so to speak. And, when I become overwhelmed with the volume, GREAT! I will just put on another assistant and more virtual assistants. Tom

Hi Brian,
Great pep talk. I have recently set up with Mortgage Web Success, gotten my site looking good, shot some video, written 2 free reports, set up my autoresponder and will start driving traffic to my site. I can’t say that I have a lot of confidence in my industry…or that it will be around in 2 years….but I have to fight. I have to play to win. It’s still not easy.

I know many are feeling the same way
Here’s my suggestion —
PUT BLINDERS ON AND GET IN THE RACE
There is still business– YES_ even in MAINE
I am now officially getting back in the mortgage business doing ONLY reverse mortgages—
GIVE IT A TRY !!!
WHY– You can relate to their issues !!! and let me know how you are doing
