Everyone starts at ground zero.
What I do, I look at as giving back and helping other Veterans who happen to have a small business. I like to focus more on those who are up and coming, at home business or even they've got an idea and they want to dip their toe in the water. I want to get their voice heard with the "big boys". Brick and mortar, big business and those who are well-established.
I know lots of small business want to shoot for the starts quick, fast and in a hurry. So, they'll go out there and spend big revenue on advertising. Find those avenues where they can get huge views and get eyes on their product so they can get the big boost. It might work and it might not work. I'll admit, I did it. Got plenty of views, but customers? Never double digits. The price of advertising, that was triple digits.
Yes, I was in direct sales/MLM. That's done now. Learned my lesson.
I offer interview services to VOBs with hopes that it gives them a boost. First and foremost, my service is FREE OF CHARGE. I conduct the interview, I do the editing of the video and get it all out there on social media. I do this because I enjoy it and I want to see VOBs excel and provide a great service with eyeballs looking their way.
The only thing I would expect:
- When I provide the video and share it as much as I can, it's also expected that the VOB also share the link(s) on their social media.
- Subscribe to my YouTube Channel so they can see/find their video as well as checking out other VOBs
- Tell their friends and family and customers who are interested in their VOB. Word of mouth is amazing and more trusting.
It's what bigger advertisers did and their reach grew. That's what I want to provide as well for VOBs. A bigger reach so that more eyes see their product.
Again, I do it all for free. I have a job. Just subscribe to my
YouTube channel and tell your friends. When it grows, I hope that it helps you to grow as well.
I'll move my soapbox now 🙂
Talking about Veterans, GenX, Veteran Owned Small Business and a bunch of other fun stuff!
