Yes, if I get the right answer, I'll make a million bucks ;DOriginally Posted by Sam Heyer
I'll look into the book. In my case, I don't have a physical product, but it's also not an e-book.Shipping major potential JV partners a physical product via FedEx is a great way to build trust and show them that you are serious.
A JVNotifyPro member named Gabriel Howes has developed an incredible book on JV's entitled "Ultimate Joint Venture GOLD." The book is targeted at offline joint ventures, but almost all of the information can be applied online. That's one way to look into it ...
Hopefully people will just reply to this one!Another way is by starting a topic and getting everyone's input on what they have done to attract major JV partners. I'll post some of my advice on this, but in all honesty, networking is the single best way to have successful JV's...
I realize this, and I sincerely do want to make contact and become acquainted with other marketers before I even think about asking for a JV. However, as you stated, I have a time-crunch factor. I don't mean to seem impatient, but the launch is coming sooner than later.When you make personal contacts with other marketers before you present them with an offer they are far more likely to promote something than if you just present it out of the blue.
Meeting other people can be done by simply creating small talk, offering to help them out with something, etc. Do some research and get familiar with what they are doing and offer them something that they can use ... once you have done this, people will be far more likely to help you out.
These are some great insights!Now if you don't have the time to make friends with someone first, then here are a few suggestions I have:
1. Make sure it's a killer product. If you have a killer product and are truly passionate about it your enthusiasm in your product will show in your proposal.
2. FedEx a physical product to these people. People don't throw out physical products because it makes them feel guilty. They will look at it -- but it's easy to delete an e-book (it doesn't cost anyone anything).
3. Send all of your marketing material with the physical product. Print out your sales copy from the site, send any promo emails you have, any testimonials, etc. If they can see that there isn't much work for them to do, but they will be offering a great product to their customers and making money, it's hard to say "no".
4. Tell them 'what's in it for them'. This is one of the top rules in writing sales copy to sell your product ... now why wouldn't you 'sell' to your JV partners. I see people overlook this far too often. Tell them exactly what they get, don't simply tell them how great your product is.
1. It is my sincere belief that the product I'll be offering is top-notch and, from what I've researched, nothing like it is available anywhere online. It is going to help a lot of people improve themselves. Obviously, I hope to maximize my earnings with it, but esoterically I think the product has the potential to revolutionize the niche I'm going after. That being said, the product isn't finalized and I hope to mold it with some help from the good folks here!
2. Again, no physical product, but I can certainly Fedex a letter, the sales copy, facts and figures, and maybe even a video tape demonstration of the product in action or something like that. Thanks for the idea!!
3. See #2. Fortunately, I already have very powerful testimonials from our users. I hope it helps push the door open!
4. Duly noted, and if I'm right about #1, they will be in on the ground floor of a revolution (or maybe just make a good amount of money)
I look forward to hearing more responses! Sam, thank you so much for your outstanding insights!Those are a few quick guidelines to start off.
Let's get some more pointers to increase response from other JVers in here. What else are you doing to get the "big guys" to notice your products?
Look forward to hearing your responses.
To your sexcess,
