Local Marketing Myth Business Opportunity

You might have heard about Russell Brunson’s Local Marketing Myth business opportunity or product. It fits into the internet marketing trend of local business products offered in the internet marketing niche.

As entrepreneur you always look for ways to make money. If you have a business, you look for ways to make more money, more effective advertising and so on. To keep up with all the trends, changes and activities is already very hard, let alone to actually implement them and do them in your business is almost impossible.

The best practice is to hire an outside company or expert to do the job for you. All this involves a good amount of money. Not everyone has this needed cash or is willing to spend it looking at the current economy.

A small but growing number of online marketers came up with a solution, offering to local businesses service packages for internet marketing.

Indeed catering to local businesses is a very big market – alone in the US.

The concept is to offer solutions to local business owners to be online or more successful online by generating more customers or leads to the business they have. All that against a fee.

Now Russell Brunson and his local marketing myth product does target for one these local businesses and offering them a product that help them to be have more leads or/ and customers. The dentist or doctor or any other local business owner can get the knowhow by subscribing to a course and learn over time in a step by step method how to do it. Instead of them, any employee can be trained and apply what learned.

This is usual a low cost monthly package, which can be upgraded.

This is only one part of Russell Brunson’s local marketing myth package. The other part is not for local business owners but for entrepreneurs looking for a business opportunity.

Currently Russell Brunson is looking for people to help him with this business.

He got a long video that explain the business opportunity, not in detail, but good enough to even copy the idea to use without him. He knows it is possible and he made the video presentation with that in mind.

At the very end he explain his offer and it is an done-for-you-all offer. He provides everything, the content, the website, the after sales stuff, and payments for sales. Only thing left, drive traffic to a customized webpage.

It’s all great and the earnings samples have the usual high numbers. All sounds very, very easy…. and fantastic. Who does not want some business like that?

Even the one time price he is asking is not bad compared with the earning samples. But could I say, take this business and run with it?

No….. it is a simple no.

Why?

One main reason, the one time pay.

I don’t understand why someone has to pay anything, not even a one time user or entry fee. Local Marketing Myth is an all for you done business in the box. Only thing left is get local business aware of this product/ webpage.

Any affiliate or clickbank promoter is doing the same, driving traffic to a landing page. But no affiliate program or clickbank charge money to promote the products they offer.

Well, MLM companies usual charge upfront something and the MLM-distributor gets a commission for every sale. Much like Russell Brunson’s Local Marketing Myth.
