Focus on permission-based marketing and customer benefits to formulate a winning plan. Then just Get It Going and build a relationship with your lists.
Let me make a bold statement.
Newbies on the Internet do NOT need the same assistance as an established business with Internet operations.
Wouldn’t you agree?
I have some services geared at both of these distinct groups of businesses.
An established business will tend to have good plans in place, and the work they do on the Internet will fit into a revenue-producing department. Goals will be defined. And, when I send them an invoice for $1000, this type of business can be expected to recoup that expense quickly. In fact, there normally are solid plans for doing that before they even contact me.
For this type of business, I provide outsourced expertise for a variety of tasks. I call my service a “Techie Retainer”. Based on the amount of service the business retains me for, they can secure very favorable rates to have me work for them.
The new entrepreneur, or the business with no experience working with the Internet, will find a different situation confronting them. Besides all the technical, positioning and marketing challenges that confront every website in the world, “newbies” also have additional challenges. They need to get started, and quite often have inadequate expertise in one or more areas.
There is a need to either hit a steep learning curve, which likely will eat up months of time, or to outsource or partner with experienced marketing and technical experts.
And for this segment of the market, I have come up with what seems to be a novel idea. While I am perfectly happy to accept purely outsourced work requests, I have come up with a much more helpful approach.
Using screen sharing and remote control tools, I can work interactively with you. Many people don’t simply want a blog built, or a sales process set up. They also want to understand what it takes to get that work done.
Some will want to learn to handle the task themselves in the future, while others just want the awareness of the steps and process. For both these situations, an interactive “work together” approach gets the work done, and also imparts a good amount of knowledge transfer from me to my less experienced client.
And that is not all! I also record these sessions, both what is on my screen as well as the audio conversation. These videos are then provided as well.
So if we do spend 3 hours getting a blog set up, customizing the About Me page, installing a theme and a handful of plugins – you can review all that was done at a later time.
Imagine the power of personalized teamwork, getting YOUR tasks accomplished, and getting some guidance at the same time from someone with greater experience than you have. And add to that the power of reviewing the entire work / learning session on video after the fact.
This is what I call “Tech Time Jobs”. If all you want at this point is access to the videos of some of these jobs, then you are looking for “Tech Time Job Videos“.
