Hi Millard....yep....ya gotta ENJOY what ya do. I REALLY ENJOY going into a business....meeting the owner...showing him/her how I can bring them more business...quote a price and get them to write me a check.

VEERY REWARDING for ME! They could drop me from a plane and within a day, I'd have figured a way to make money without "looking for a job".

THIS "TV Channel Listing" thing is soo easy. The hotels go for this right off, in fact...I've been wanting to get to the Coast before bad weather hits so, I'm going to pick a town...go get 3 hotels to give the OK for my Guides and 1 of them WILL give me 3 nights FREE LODGING. Also, I will be trading off MEALS with the restaurants I put on these.

YOU could be doing this in Branson!

Oopps. Sorry. Branson has too many "Corporate" restaurants and hotels where the "Decision-Maker" is back in Chicago or Denver or LA...in their "Corporate" offices. Forget that! Give me small towns anyday...where there's Mom & Pops who can "give me a decision NOW...Yay or Nay!"

I just revamped my Guide piece whereby I can get 6 Ads on the front and 4 on the back of a larger piece....10 ads for a nifty 4 Grand Gross. Not bad for 2 or 3 days "work".

Don,

You're right on about small towns...Branson is really too corporate now...I made money, but it was tougher than most of my deals....

I am with you, pardner, move 'em up...head 'em out!

I don’t get why you couldn’t do it in Branson…
While there are many corp. owned entities with the "Decision-Maker"
In another area, there are also many “more” Mom and Pops in your area than in a small town like Roseburg.

Take restaurants for example…..
( The following are listings that include Corp owned Restaurants)
Here is a yahoo listing of the restaurants near Roseburg


http://yp.yahoo.com/py/ypResults.py?...=y&stx=8903827

There are 111 listings
Compared to Branson’s Restaurant listings

http://yp.yahoo.com/py/ypResults.py?...ONz73ZI6L5Hk57

There are over 200 where you are.

The Restaurant #’s alone, suggest that you should be able to get at least 2x as many participants making 2x the dough.
Heck….. Give it a shot.

I would think that with all of the Corp competition, that this op would only play into your presentation and list of bennies to the MOM and POP’S in the area as it would be another way for them to compete with the BIG BOYS
Let us know how it works out when you go to the “Days Inn” (for example) and present them with the opportunity.

If things work out, you and Don could have a great J.V. OP with your radio program by having him on for an hour or so.

Ha! I did not say i could not do it... I have ALREADY DONE IT!

It just took me a longer time to "Weed" through all the corporate types.

Instead of a couple of weeks to do it as Don does, it took me six weeks. I made money and in FIVE months, I'll UPGRADE for the new season and MAKE MORE MONEY.

SCORE: 25 hotels, 14 restaurants, $9, 725.00

Warmly,

Don,

I want to know what program you used to make the sheets, and did you actually print out 200 of these guides for each room? I'm very interested in doing this project right here.

You may remember me from the old forums, as the college kid that was interested in how to make money while in college.

I'm interested because I live in new orleans and we have a LARGE influx of construction workers in town to work on businesses and residential property. They all want to know where to eat at locally and other businesses, this will be a great pitch to sale. I am really excited, thanks.
