Top 10 Creative Offline Marketing Ideas

1. Use Drops cards in the credit card slots at your gas stations. Use the $100 bill folded drop card. After you are done pumping gas, slip one of these cards in the slot. If someone sees it and is not interested, they're simply going to throw it on the ground for someone else to pick it up!! Now know this sounds cheesy, but it works! It worked on me many times in Las Vegas. I picked up these a few times only to find out that someone was marketing their escort service! My wife told me to DROP THE CARD everytime! LOL

Have your spouse, friends, kids, parents, brothers and sisters help you out with this everytime they go and get some gas!

2. Newspaper Stations. Next time you are on a street corner that has the metal box full of newspapers, stick 25 or 50 cents in to open the newspaper station door. Stick your dropcards in every newspaper and then simply close the door. Yes this will cost you 25 - 50 cents but can be well worth it!

3. Housekeepers and maidservice Here is an industry that is sometimes hurting for some extra cash. Next time you stay in a hotel, leave a tip and a drop card (Maybe not the $100 bill one) and write a simple note: "I understand maidservice is not the most glamourous job in the world, but if you keep your options open to making some extra money, give me a shout!"

I love that offline marketing idea. This one is something I never thought about since I stay in hotel rooms alot!

4. Waiters, Waitresses and dinner checks  Again, this is a job that doesn't pay alot, but has a lot of promise since waiters and waitresses are usually very friendly and are outgoing. These are great qualities that you should be looking for when recruiting others. Make sure you leave a good tip and a drop card on your dinner check with a message similar to the housekeeper and maidservice.

5. "No Postage Necessary Envelopes!" Wow, this offline marketing idea is awesome! Everyone gets a credit card application in the mail almost everyday!! These come with an envelope that says " no postage necessary if mailed inside the US" Put your drop card, mail it back to the credit card company, and someone will open it! I have been told people in mailrooms that do this for a living HATE opening up mail! They see your opportunity and can become a RED HOT lead for your business

6. Toll Booth. Toll booths are present in many larger cities. Next time you go through a toll booth and there's a car behind you, pay for the car behind you and ask the toll booth attendant to give them a CD or brochure about your business. If you pay for their toll, it's almost a guarantee they will look at your business!

7. Library Book Marketing. Did you know you can donate books to the library? If you have a book that is somewhat related to "Making money", " entrepreneur" "Donald Trump" or something along those lines, ink stamp your website and a short message on the inside book cover and a couple of times throughout the book. Oh yeah, and this is a write off too!

8. Bookstore bookmarks Next time you are in a mall or at the bookstore, go to the sections that have books that might be read by people that are good prospects for your business. Books like "The Secret" and "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" Donald Trumps "Why We Want You To Be Rich" are perfect examples. Drop your card in the middle of the book so it doesn't fall out until someone reads that chapter.

9. Airplanes and Skymall. Everyone picks up the Skymall catalog when flying. This is a great place to get your dropcard in. Also, drop your $100 bill dropcard on the floor when leaving the airplane, maybe attach a note just like the maidservice and waiters/waitresses example.

10. Bathroom stalls I know this may sound a little gross but people have to go to the bathroom and when they are "sitting down", they got a few minutes to read your drop card! You can place 4-5 cards in matter of seconds with this offline marketing strategy.

There you go. There is 10 offline marketing ideas that you can take and make some more money in your business without really spending a lot of money or time. Now I know you might be thinking if some of these offline marketing ideas are illegal or "frowned upon"

Here's my philosophy: "Ask for forgiveness, not permission!" If you really want to be successful in life, you are going to have to be aggressive in your efforts!

Now this works if you take massive action and stay consistent! Be smart and creative with this.

I thank you for your time and appreciate the opportunity to serve you,
