One of the first questions asked in developing an Offline Consulting business is “Where do I get good quality leads?” The answer is based on your market. If you are in a small economy, a small city, Craigslist is not good for you. If however, you are in a larger economy with an active tech sector then you will find Craigslist an excellent resource for leads.

There are people shopping daily for the services presented by the Offline Consulting opportunity. Small businesses and entrepreneur’s are looking for affordable web development, marketing, and search engine optimization advances in their marketing strategies every day. Look in the Web / Info Design section of craigslist and you will find these people easily.

If you happen to be just starting out in your offline consulting business there is no better place to go to get your first contacts in business than craigslist. The reason is twofold. On the one hand you have businesses already looking for what you are offering, and on the other you have a wide variety of businesses using the consulting services you offer.

The variety offered in craigslist is where you will begin to see what businesses need which special considerations and why. This will provide a very solid base for establishing yourself as the premier source for local business marketing success in your community.

Giving valuable knowledge freely establishes you as a valuable relationship to have in the eyes of the local business owner.

Be patient and understand that no matter how optimistic a person is about how they can use the knowledge you give them,.. they just can’t make time for it. People are creatures of habit and they just wont do it themselves even if they really believe they will.

The new information you are giving them involves a learning curve using software they have never seen,.. you can even offer to teach them how to use it for free and they still won’t make time to do it.

Local business owners already have more to do than they can handle. That is your secret competitive advantage.

You want to give the farm away in information knowing they wont do it because they don’t have time and will eventually hire you, because they trust you. They trust you because you gave them the truth freely.

THAT is how it’s done.

Always be willing to make mistakes… just admit to yourself you are learning and move past all obstacles.
