Hello, and welcome to Free Specials Board.
What is Free Specials Board you ask?
First we will explain what a Specials Board is. Have you ever walked into a restaurant, auto repair shop or any business and was greeted by a board, usually a dry erase type that had the current specials? Well that is a Specials Board and we have created an opportunity for you to make 0.00 or more every time you give away a FREE Specials Board. Yep. FREE. And you can pocket 0 or more just for doing just that.
Example Boards:
Start with This Template in our designer ...
And get this
20 inch X 14 inch as above or 14 inch X 20 inch Below
Now Available 18" X 24" With 8 Advertising Spots Providing you with even more options & revenue
Now receive 2 Demo Boards 1-14"X20" & 1- 18"X24"
I can hear you thinking out loud... And just where does the money come from that I get to pocket?
Simple. Each board has 6 or 8 advertising placements the size of a standard business card. You sell the advertising spots and you get paid.
Okay, So here is how it works.
You go into a place that could use a Specials, Hours, Rates, etc. board. (IE: Restaurant, auto repair, hair dresser, and so on and so on. The list is endless) You say to the owner or manager I would like to give you a FREE Customized Specials Dry Erase Board for you to display your daily or current specials on. (or whatever board you decide) I doubt very much they will kick you out for using the word FREE. They will usually reply asking for more information. This is when you pull out your full size demo which is 20 X 14 inches (Or 18X24) and show them how nice it is. It can be customized with their business name, they choose the background, whether it will be 14 High X 20 Wide or 20 High X 14 Wide. Then they will ask how it is free. This is when you explain about the 6 advertising spots and how the advertising will cover the cost of customized production and shipping. Tell them it is a WIN-WIN situation for both them and the advertisers as they will receive the board at no cost to them and the advertisers will benefit by having their ad in front of all of the locations customers. Explain to them that you will produce a new board each year and the design can be changed if they choose with new or renewed advertisers. At this point you would ask them if they had anyone in mind that they believe would like to advertise in their location for an entire year. They will usually tell you a list of customers that come in regularly and believe they would like to reap the benefits of advertising on a board that will be viewed every time a customer walks in. They just made your job much easier.
You now can go about getting advertisers one of 3 ways.
Option 1-
The easiest way is for you to tell the location they can even make money by getting their customers to advertise on the board. Tell them that what ever they sell the ad for over what you decide to charge for the board
(Say 0.00 since it will be easy money as they talk to their customers and acquire the advertisers and you pocket 0.00)
. Tell them to have each advertiser choose a spot and give them a business card. On the back of the card have them write the placement number (1-6). You will be able to download and print several copies of the board for them to use to show the potential advertiser. Tell them that once they get all the ad spots filled to simply call you and you will come pick up the business cards they get from the advertisers. You then simply scan or take a high quality picture of the cards, log back into the designer, pull up their design and place the image files for the cards in the positions the advertisers requested.
You may want to leave the board for the location to use as a demo. Additional demo boards are available at a discounted price of just .00 + .00 shipping (Same shipping for 1 or as many as you need. Additional boards ordered at sign up we will wave the shipping cost). If you are using this sales tactic several demo boards are a good idea so you can have multiple locations creating boards at the same time.
Option 2-
The most profitable way: You seek out the advertisers. Explain to them for a small fee
(Which you create that is acceptable in your area, as every area has a different value on advertising. Keep in mind this is for an entire year of advertising and emphasize that when talking to your prospect. I would not go less than 0 for placement. Average is usually at least 0.00. But lets use 0 for this example. Also in this demo we will be talking to a male business owner. Everything could be modified to whom ever you are speaking with.)
So you are sitting with an advertising prospect and showing them the board after you told them that John Doe from Doe's Bread and pastries (Did you get that??? LOL) sent you to see them about advertising on a specials board in his place. Well since you had a foot in the door by using John Doe as a reference you have broken the ice. He will ask how much and you say For an entire year advertising on a board similar to this it would only be 0.00. (Replace with what you will charge). It is a simple business card size ad so we could place your business card on here pointing to the advertising spots and say Every time someone comes into John's place they will be looking at this sign because they will want to see what is on special. He is hooked and you ask him which spot he would like. He will point to one. Be sure to mark on the ones that are sold so there is no confusion. Once he confirms and is sold on the idea, get his business card and place it over the spot he chose and say This is what it will look like. He will smile. Once you have payment for the advertising, you have earned his trust and respect. (He would not have paid you if he felt otherwise) tell him that you will be doing other projects like this at other locations, and ask him if he would be interested in advertising on future projects. If he says yes to this be sure to get another card for your records.
(You may even go as far as to ask if he would be interested in one for his business)
By having a list of people that are interested in future advertising it will make future projects much easier, but 2 things about using them.
1-
Use the referrals from the location receiving the sign first as they have a personal relationship with that customer/prospect and they could be placed into your future advertiser list.
2-
DO NOT WARE OUT ADVERTISERS
. What I mean is do not get just a few future advertisers on your list and call them repeatedly or they will not be on your list for long and may not renew on next years board.
Oh did I fail to tell you that you will be going back to John Doe's Bread and pastries in a year to replace the board you just gave them with a new one with New or Renewed advertising. Yep. Every year you repeat and get paid again.
NOTE:
The signs are Aluminum. When you replace them every year, save them yourself and scrap them when you get a bunch for added $.
Option 3-
You can hire sales people and have them do all the foot work for you. Gaining locations and advertisers. Give them a commission on ad revenue.
So here is the breakdown:
John Does Bread and pastries Specials Board
You sold
6
advertising spots at
0.00
each for a total of
0.00
Your production cost for us to customize the sign with the format they want Portrait or Landscape, Background, advertisements, shipping to you so you can present it to your customer is just
0.00
. That leaves you
0.00.
Do that just once per week and that would be
,000.00 per year
giving away Specials Boards
Lets change the selling price to the average of
0.00
and see what happens:
So you sell
6
ads at
0
each gives you a total of
0.00
Your production cost does not change and is still just
0.00
You now have
0.00
instead of
0.00
.
Do that just once per week and that would be
,400.00 per year
.
You sell the advertising at the cost you want, Just be sure to be able to cover the 0.00 production cost.
Just for the heck of it, lets do it at
.00
and see what happens. (I do not recommend this price unless you have to)
So you sell
6
ads at
.00
for a total of
0.00
Production cost is still
0.00
.
You now have
0.00
in your pocket.
Do that just once per week and that would still be a respectable
,200.00 per year
.
A nice side income
.
Do any of these a few times per month and you have a decent profit.
BONUS!!!
Receive 4 Additional Counties/Territories in your state. Mu
st be connecting. Additional counties available at .00 each but do not include distributor kits.
Okay? So we know you have questions. This should cover most of them.
Q-
I am concerned about the price. If this opportunity has so much potential, why is it so inexpensive to join?
A-
What an awesome question and I hope I can ease your concerns. The reason the cost to get started is so inexpensive is we are not trying to make money on you joining. We want you as a distributor and feel that we would rather make joining affordable and you use the difference of what we are charging and what we could charge to put into better use in your new business. Without distributors this is only an idea.
Q-
Is this a franchise?
A-
NO. This is not a franchise. You run under your own business name, pay your own taxes, there are no franchise fees. You are simply ordering a product from us to sell/provide to your customers. Unlike a franchise, You
may not
use our
name
or
logos
in your business.
Q-
I would like my county and the county next to me.
Can I claim more than one county/territory?
A-
Yes. You may claim as many counties as you would like. If interested in your entire state let us know and we will create a package for you if all of the counties are available. If someone else has a territory in that state you may purchase the remaining counties if you would like. You currently receive an additional 4 counties with your initial county/territory.
Q-
I live in a rural area and think .00 per ad is a better price. Can I still do this?
A-
Yes. As you can see in our demo sale on the home page you can do .00 per ad and you could make a good income with multiple boards per month. If you only do one board per week that would be an extra ,200.00 in your pocket per year. To make a decent living doing this alone you would probably want to either charge more or do more boards.
Q-
Once I claim my county/territory and pay my initial 9.00 are there any other charges? Monthly, Annually, etc.
A-
No. Unlike a franchise, once you claim your county/territory it is yours. We do not charge any further fees to be a part of this great opportunity. The only further cost would be for each board you order.
Q-
How do we submit the design for the board?
A-
We make it as simple as possible. We have created another website on a different domain name to keep your business and customers away from this page. In that web page Distributor Member area you will have access to a designer for the boards. This makes it so simple to pull up the designer with your location prospect and actually design the board in front of them including them in the process. This makes it more interesting for them. Here is a demo video of the designer. You can see a demo video of this on our website.
Q-
Do you put any identifying marks on the boards that may identify you and cost me future customers or revenue?
A-
NO. We do not put anything at all that identifies us (Our Company) on the boards. This is your business and
Your Success is Our Success
.
Q-
Do you ship directly to the customer? Wouldn't that identify your company?
A-
Again, No. We ship to you so you can personally take it to your customer and make a big deal out of it. How nice it is and how it will help them. We have no intention to take your customers. They are Your customers of Your business. Without your efforts and success, we could not do this.
Q-
How long does it take to get a board completed and delivered to me?
A-
We will normally put the board into production usually within 48 to 72 hours depending on back load (Not including weekends or holidays and are produced in order received). The board is complete the same day as placed into production process and will ship out the next business day via USPS. So turn around time depending on shipping address, weekends and holidays should be around 10-15 business days.
Q-
What size are the boards, and what do they cost?
A-
We have 2 sizes 14X20 inches which cost 0.00 and our NEW Addition Larger Board is 18X24 inches and will cost 0.00.
Q-
If I sign up today, when will I receive my dealer package?
A-
We will ship your demo boards within 3 business days. You will receive an invitation to our Dealer Only website within 72 hours. This will give you time to view the training videos, download and edit forms and get use to our awesome board designer.
Q-
What does the dealer package consist of?
A-
In your dealer package you will receive 2 full size demo Specials Boards. 1- 20 X 14 inches and 1- 24X18 inches. The boards will be double sided to show the two different layouts. A set of our recommended easy clean markers,
a 16.8"X 20.9" Canvas Carry Bag
and Access to our dealer only website with Order forms for locations & advertisers, training videos and information as well as access to our custom board designer.
Q-
How and when will I receive my commission?
A-
This is not commission. You collect payment directly from your advertisers. From the funds you collect, you order the board from us. We do not handle any of your transactions.
Q-
Should I accept Checks & Credit Cards?
A-
I am not saying yes or no on this as it depends on how you want to run your business but, I would highly recommend that you accept both. People are more likely to pull out a credit card than cash. Go to PayPal.com or another company and get a credit card slider. It will make your life so much easier and will send a receipt directly to the advertisers email.
Q-
Can I hire employees/sales personnel to increase my sales?
A-
That again is up to your business model. A sales force working for you could be a very powerful tool for your business. We welcome people that are driven to produce and we are up to the challenge to keep up with your demand. Additional Distributor Kits are available at only 9.00 each Free shipping no matter how many you need. If you order additional boards at sign up we will wave the shipping charge.
Q-
Is there a minimum that I have to sell to keep my territory?
A-
We recommend doing a minimum of at least 1 per month. We understand that you may be doing this as a side income and encourage doing this as a side income. If there is any issue where you know it will be a longer than usual period of time between orders, all we ask is that you let us know. (IE: Medical issue, moving, etc). If we do not receive any orders from you for a period of 6 months without contact from you, we will place the county back on available and someone would be able to claim your territory.
Q-
Can I sell my territory or will it to someone?
A-
Heck yea. This is your business. The territory is designated to your business. You are more than welcome to sell or will what is yours. Just let us know and be sure to provide whomever is buying or receiving your business all the locations you have already given boards to and I would recommend giving them your advertiser list. There will be no transfer fee with us. Just update the information in your member area and we are all set. This way we know future orders will be shipped to them and not you. This is all that will change with us.
Q-
Do I need a business license?
A-
My answer would be yes, but you would want to check what you need with your local county office.
We will need a copy of your sales tax ID on file to purchase the boards,
so that would make most areas a yes.
Q-
How are the signs produced and why are they 0.00 & 0.00?
A-
Good question. First off the signs are made of aluminum with a special high quality white gloss coat. We will be using a high end photo quality UV printer. UV ink is very expensive as is the printer which costs over ,000.00 alone plus overhead including location, labor, electric, shipping, etc. We feel that 0.00 & 0.00 is an extremely reasonable cost with the potential return profit for you as a dealer.
Any further questions feel free to contact us.
