Below are 75 ways to find prospects for your business... Make sure to pick just a few strategies that resonate with you and focus on getting good at those. They are listed in no particular order, and I'm sure you can think of more. These were off the top of my head... If you have other strategies that you're interested in, then do those... (Think outside the box)
1) Bulletin Boards - I post cheap flyers anytime I'm out in the public, but you can post anything you like...
2) Business Cards - I order from Vista Print online, and pass them out to Restaurant and Store employees among others, but you can pass them out to whoever you like...
3) Yellow Pages - Cold Call a few random individuals. I'm not a fan and don't do this, but some people enjoy it. This is a web dictionary of people in your area...
4) Craigslist - Over 60 million page views per month, and a great way to find prospects. They also have an inexpensive paid version...
5) Postcards - This is a great method, but can be pricey, so I recommend this only after you start making money...
6) Facebook - Everyone has at least 500+ friends so contact a few of them about your opportunity, this could be a nice starting point...
7) Texting - Everyone has a cell phone, and checks it out daily, so you're able to contact people here as well...
8) YouTube - Make short 3–4-minute videos about anything you like. this is the third most trafficked website on the internet. Daily, Weekly, Monthly, or whenever is convenient...
9) Phone Contacts - Ask your friends if they have friends who could be interested in what you're offering...
10) Classified ADS - I use FREE Classifieds daily and have over 2000 FREE websites for my team. You won't make a lot of money, but you can make some, and it's easy to do...
11) Safelists - Another FREE method of advertising. This is a little time consuming because you're clicking ADS for credits in order for you to post your content...
12) Podcasting - Many people are podcasting all over Facebook, and social media in order to generate a large audience...
13) Apparel - Put your website URL on a shirt or hat...
14) Sporting Events - This is a great place because large crowds gather to watch their favorite sports teams, and you can talk to a few people in your seating area about your opportunity...
15) Samples - If your opportunity has samples, pass out a few to random people to try. This will give you access to more people so you can follow up to see if liked what you offered or not. This can also help to build customer loyalty...
16) Billboard - This is a thing, but more geared toward bigger brick and mortar businesses. If you have that kind of money, then go for it...
17) First Amendment Auditors - This is a bit of an unorthodox method, but if you watch them on YouTube, you can befriend one of them, and most will let you plug your opportunities to their subscribers, and most of them have tens of thousands that watch their content...
18) Yard Sales - Get up early on a Saturday morning and I'm sure you will find many of them all over your town during the summer months, and you can stop and hand out a business card, or flyer while shopping...
19) Button - Wear one on your shirt or hat with something pertaining to your business...
20) Monthly Bills - When mailing payment for a bill, slip a business card or flyer in the envelope and send...
21) Rotators - I use these regularly because they are very cost effective and typically good for a year with your URL in the rotator generating traffic, and you're able to track your results...
22) Car Magnet - You can order these at Vista Print Online, and put them on your car doors with your business info, and URL so everyone can see them everywhere you go for more exposure...
23) Flyers - You can take them anywhere you go and post them or hand them out to anyone you want, and they are very cost effective. 12 cents per copy... (Black & White)
24) Blogging - I do this also and really enjoy creating content and posting on social media. By doing this you're providing value to your readers and in turn you are gaining their trust...
25) Your Team Members - They know people also, and may be using a strategy that's working for them, so it's always a good idea to stay connected...
26) Health Fairs/Gyms - I'm a gym rat and have been for over 50 years. You can always meet new people because you both have something in common...
27) Purchase Leads - As a last resort this is an option, but do your research first before doing so...
28) Public Speaking - If you're in the public eye, this is a viable option but definitely not for everyone...
29) Laundry Rooms - Even if you don't use them for your own personal use, you can almost always find people doing laundry that could be interested in what you're offering...
30) Referrals - Anyone you talk to about an opportunity, whether they say yes or no, they all have friends, and you can ask them for contact info to the interested party...
31) Newspaper ADS - Choose your words wisely because this can be a bit costly, but a great way to get the word out within your community about your opportunity...
32) Car Stickers - Very similar to the magnets and not too expensive...
33) Job Fairs - The unemployment rate is high right now, and this isn't your best method of recruiting because these individuals are mostly looking for employment, but you may find someone from time to time that's interested in your opportunity...

40) Foreigners - This is odd. I have hundreds of people from other countries that I talk to randomly about my opportunity, and always about their friends...
41) Cold Calling - I'm not a fan of this, but you can look on social media and find someone in your niche, and you may find a phone number on their profile, and give them a call...

53) Solo Ads - This is one of the best paid advertising ways to generate leads. Udimi.com is the biggest Vendor website that sells their large lists, and the average price per lead is around .35 cents. Do your research before purchasing so you make sure you're getting quality leads from the vendor. These are already people in or looking for what you're offering...

🙏Always remember that Marketing is a numbers game and does take time and effort on your part in order to be successful. Every NO you get, you are that much closer to a YES, so give yourself time to succeed. Realistically you need 2-5 years before you will make a significant difference, and I want you to know that before making a decision.
