Im a plain man when it comes to making money online; I just do what I do and try to make an honest buck wherever I can without upsetting anyone.
Now and again though fate steps in and sends you a prospect where you have to figure out for yourself where he or she is coming from and where in fact they think theyre heading.
I got one such prospect a few weeks ago in the shape of Rocco, a gentle giant from Brooklyn.
How do I know Rocco is a giant?
He emailed a picture of himself towering over his significant other and some friends.
How do I know hes gentle?

Rocco emailed me expressing interest in three of my products but he didnt want them in digital format (which would have cost him $107 in total) he wanted hard copy.
I suggested CD formatting.
He got back to me saying, No, I dont want CDs, I want hard copy. Ill pay a grand
So now I thought, loony tunes, but I emailed Rocco back intimating that if he deposited $200 in my PayPal account Id give him what he wanted; hard copy on all three products
I reckoned I would hear no more but the following morning on checking my PayPal account I discovered to my astonishment that one thousand dollars had been deposited.
I cant take this mans money I protested and I told him so.
Rocco got back to me within the hour.
His brusque message read, I said a grand, I meant a grand, so take a grand.
So I took Roccos grand.
Wouldnt you?
I mean who wants to be emailed to death
The moral:
Never assume you know better than prospects or what they are prepared to pay and why. Maybe Rocco has a sight problem beyond my ken or maybe he finds it difficult to read from a computer screen. I will never know for sure but this I do know. Rocco is delighted with the hard copy he craved.
He told me so
in yet another email.

LinkedIn Recommendation:
Jonah William - Owner at Tessier Marketing - I thought I was well versed in social media before I found Teo. He has helped me round my skill set with great information only he seems to teach. I went on the web and looked for it later, but it's just not there. The ShareThis.com counters for instance, which definitely don't work right... can't find that anywhere, but it's easy to prove once you know what to test for! Teo really has a way of getting to what works and what works best! - March 17, 2012, Jonah was Teo's client |
