So Here’s My Plan…Your Advice Please!

you need money to make money

Too many folks look like it as a cost instead of an investment. It's gotta be monitored and adjusted!

The idea is to spend a little... to make a lot.

I guess its time to re-vamp my plan...

Let's say you use the money to buy 30 leads, what are you going to do the other 6 hours of the day? If you're going to switch gears before even trying your plan, you are in trouble no matter what you do.

I respect Moonlight, however, a monkey spending 30 hours on the phone could get 5 applications. Now, I don't think 6 hours of telemarketing a day is realistic either. First, you'll burn out. Second, you'll get leads and be meeting with them (online or F2F) and couldn't sustain that number beyond two days anyway just due to that fact.

Why not pick something very realistic, say two or three hours of telemarketing each morning and when you're done with that, supplement with internet leads if you have the money or go to B2B if you don't to fill the gap?

Yep, ROI is what it's all about!

I see what you're saying, but is the goal to get sales results...or fill up the day?

Sounds like a poor marketing plan to me!

Now that makes sense! Very wise! How's the weather for B2B up there in Minnesota Matt?

Results...I don't think we disagree there. Given the cash flow situation, if he doesn't directly generate leads during the other six hours a day, what will the results be?

It's always relative. Today brought a heat wave, we're just under 20 degrees right now! Best it's been in a few weeks.

This sounds like a good option. I figured 6 hours a day would be ideal since I dont have any scheduled presentations/call backs as of yet. Obviously I would scale back as needed.
