How To Start And Operate Your Own Successful Picture Framing Business
If you want to open your own store and don't know where to start, then keep reading because I have good news... Starting a picture framing business is easier than you think. Dear
Internet Friend,
It's just
incredible.
I stumbled
onto this formula that sells picture framing like crazy. If
you're interested in selling custom picture framing and earning
hundreds and even thousands of dollars on some days, then listen
up:
On the
internet, it's tough to know who to believe. You don't know
me from Adam. In a moment I'll tell you what I can specifically
do for you, but for now...
Here
Are Four Good Reasons To Believe What I Say
One: I'm not going to promise
that you can earn $10,000 a month or $1000 a day.
I don't know you, your skills nor your background. How could
I guarantee such a thing?
Two: I have a solid database
of 6514 customers (at last count) who have bought from me in the
last few years and that I market to on a continuing
basis. These are customers who bring me business every day.
And over
234,000 frames sold to satisfied customers over the years. Not as
many frames as McDonalds has sold burgers but you get the idea. :)
There
are many ways to attract and pull in like a magnet all
the customers you want. This report will cover the four basic
ways you can attract customers into your business.
Three: I'm a real person and
I practice daily what I preach. I don't hide behind a phony
address or a P.O Box. My office number is 323-931-8087 and
I've had that same number for 23 years and my true address
is printed at our contact page.
Four: Any one of the techniques
that are revealed in The
Ultimate Guide
will bring you money day in and day out. I know. I still
use them every day.
Look at
this way:
I
can show you
how to get on a silver platter stuff that took me years to figure out!

Here's
some highlights from The
Ultimate Guide letters.
·
The Top Five Questions to ask yourself before deciding on
your location. · How to keep a steady flow of customers coming
in your store. · How to price your frame
samples. (most framers don't have a clue on how to do
this). · How to upsell and make more
money and
profit on each sale. (You'll increase
sales instantly with these seven magic words...) · How to develop your
lifetime value customers. · How I earn between
$7000 and $12,000 every month and more just from the new customers I get.
I reveal the best four ways to get those
customers right here in this report.
· How to make money with a small web site on
the internet. How I earned over $22,400 in twelve months
with my average looking web site.
...and
there's more ·
How
to pick the perfect location. Why to avoid malls and real estate agents
like the plague. Why
you should look for free standing building spaces on the correct
side of the street and strike a deal with the owner of the building
or space. What to say to a prospective landlord in detail. Read
the letter How To Choose A Location And Negotiate A Lease.
·
Why
not to buy an existing business or franchise. If you have an extra $120,000
sitting in the bank and it's burning a hole in your pocket,
by all means, buy a franchise.
Personally,
I don't have to give half my profits to some corporate
goliath. Read this letter first before you decide.
·
Capturing
your customer's names.
If you don't, someone else will. This should be #1 on everyone's
list. If you don't have a customer, who will be your market?
·
How
to excite new customers to come back immediately after their
first purchase.
I'll
show you how you can earn over $100,000 every year
just from the new customers you'll get including their second
return visit.
And
the exact sample letter you can use to make money with your
customers is in this web site at the Ultimate Guide
link.
· How
to bring in hundreds of dollars extra every month with your referral program.
This referral
program is easy to start and once you get the ball rolling you
can easily earn hundreds of dollars extra every month by simply
handing out a small card or a printed referral certificate to your customer
when they pick up their framing.
As a subscriber, you can copy my sample referral
certificate that attracts
customers like crazy. It's all in the Ultimate
Guide letter: How To Make
Money With Referrals.
This
has got to be the easiest, no brainer way to build your picture framing
empire, one customer at a time.
·
Pricing.
Use my chart or create your own. This is a close look at how to realistically
mark up your framing and WHAT your price chart should look like
and HOW to use it.
The
good news is, there are no set prices in the framing industry,
only guideline price charts that are set by "the framing
industry" and even some of those charts are way out
of whack with real world pricing of your frame jobs.
Included in the Ultimate
Guide is my price chart to copy and alter any way you
want.
·
How
to get FREE frame samples. Why pay for your samples when the moulding companies
are using your valuable wall space to
show their samples. I reveal how
to get all the samples you want without paying a dime.
·
How
To Bring In Sales Over The Telephone - This letter shows you how easy it
is to do business over the telephone.
Every
time I hear the phone ring, I shout the word "...Opportunity!"
You
never know who's at the other end of the next phone call that
will bring you money and business for many years.
·
Your
Unique Selling Proposition (USP).
Why
should anyone do business with you?
Why
do your customers frame with you instead of the frame shop down
the street?
When
you subscribe you get dozens of examples of Unique Selling Propositions.
This
is a statement or slogan or logo that tells the whole world
why you're the best and why everyone should be doing business
with you. Sometimes called a Unique Selling Advantage.
Use the examples given in the Ultimate Guide letters to create your own slogan and USP. And there are plenty of them.
·
Multi
store locations. How to centralize your framing work. If you're considering more than one
store in the future, this bonus is included in The Ultimate Guide. You get detailed instructions on how
to handle the orders from another location and track any order
at any given moment, without a computer!
·
Employees.
Why NOT to hire a trainee for the sake of saving a few bucks
in salary. How
to avoid problems with employees. How to cure the always late
employee.
How to have a top notch HELP-RUN business, so you
can concentrate on more important things like marketing, growing
your company and let's not forget having time to take great
vacations knowing your store is in good hands.
·
Why
testimonials are important to the goodwill of your business.
TIP:
Post your testimonials
in a frame at your front counter to instill confidence in your
new customer.
·
Never
sell a frame like you're buying it yourself. Do
you or your employees have a poverty consciousness? Do you feel sheepish
about asking $700 for one frame?
·
How To Make Money With Your Website.
Yes, it really can happen! Include the right incentives at your
site and you can have another stream of income.
You'll
learn the secret to getting your customer's opt-in email address.
This is the most desirable list to have because your customer
has asked to receive your "special offers". An opt-in list is not spam.
Let's
face it, most people today have at least an email address.
Imagine
if you put into action just some of the ideas from The Ultimate Guide
letters in your daily or weekly routine, you can
propel you sales through the roof.
Join
Now. For only $9.95 you can have
instant access within one minute to every feature
and benefit this site has to offer.
All pages are printer friendly, so you can grab the information,
put it into a binder and have everything at your fingertips discussed in this report .
Or just keep coming back to the articles you like the most.
I'll reveal ideas to you that always guarantee me an inflow of money and sales. It's
almost like magic, except it's real and it works everytime.
Just one visit and you'll be jumping up and down with ways to promote your store and make more sales.
Before
we go any further, you have to ask yourself five questions.
1. Why
do I want to go into this business?
Money...satisfaction...
bringing dreams to peoples lives? Maybe you only want to work it
part time to see if you like it or to see if it will take off. Are
you getting into it as a hobby?
Are you
ready to COMMIT! Do you really have that burning DESIRE, or just
the feeling that maybe you'll try it and 'see what happens'.
Is your
burning desire strong enough to melt steel or is it just a flicker
on a candle?
You've
heard the phrase a hundred times, "Do What You Love And Love
What You Do".
Although
big bucks happen every day in this business, when you love what
you do, your chances of success increase rapidly.
2. Do
I want a store front or do I want to start part time out of my garage
or back bedroom?
YES, you
want a store front if you're at all serious. And it must be
in the right location. More on that later.
You can
be successful operating a back door business out of your garage.
I personally know framers who do that, but there is obviously more
money to be made with an actual store location. You want traffic and recognition.
This is
called building the "goodwill" of your business.
"Back
door framers" will make enough to live on, but I think you
want more money than that.
3. How
will I attract my customers?
The bottom
line in every business is Sales.
The Greatest Picture Framer In The World
Will Be Broke Without A Steady Stream Of Customers.
You can
attract customers several ways.
·
One - through your storefront, by just being
there.
·
Two - through referrals (this
is the strongest and ultimately the best method).
·
Three - through marketing with direct response
mail outs to your existing customers.
You'll
discover how
to keep your customers for life. As an example - do you ever visit
the same store or shop week after week, year after
year?
·
Four - yellow page ads are a
great source for new customers IF your ad is written correctly.
You
don't want your yellow page ad to appear like the
same old look-a-like ads that are so common in the
yellow pages.
Forget
the look-a-like ads that say your Name at the top,
maybe a few bullets of what you do and your address and
phone number at the bottom.
I call this a "look
at me, buy from me" ego ad. This is commonly called image
or
identification type advertising. Not a good idea.
You
want your ad to pull a response, not just sit on the yellow
page with all the other boringly written ads.
Anyone
looking at your ad wants an answer to one question only:
What's in it for me?
You
have to give the reader of your yellow page ad a benefit
and a good reason to read your ad and frame with you.
You'll discover how to make your ad pull like crazy.
4. How
will I learn the tricks of the trade. Where will I get my training?
·
Schools - You can learn your craft
through various schools located throughout the country.
There
are over two dozen school sources listed at this site that you
may call for further information. Most are one week courses
and cover everything you need to know to start framing pictures
like a pro.
What you learn at this web site is how to start your business and market the heck out of it to bring in the money. Most framers don't practice one tenth of what you'll discover here when you join.
·
Work
in an actual frame shop to get your best experience or you can learn
by doing it yourself (albeit a slower method).
5. How
do I run my business on a day to day basis? What kind of paperwork
do I need to maintain my business?
Paperwork
runs your business no matter what you choose
to do. Keep it simple. I show you how to set up your office in a
corner desk with a file cabinet in a matter of minutes.
You'll
need to keep track of the jobs when orders start coming in. And
the orders WILL come in.:-)
You want
to work on a Deadline or Due Date System. Customers expect their work completed
within a reasonable time. Fix an exact due date on the customer's
invoice. More on this is revealed in the private letters,
The Ultimate Guide
To Picture Framing Success.
If you're
not good at office routine or paperwork, then you'll have to hire
someone or have your spouse help you in that department. Some
people are better at different tasks than others.
If you're
ready for a change, the information in The Ultimate
Guide To Picture Framing Success can help you achieve your desired
results.
As
you read every word in
The Ultimate Guide you'll discover how to shave
off years of trial and error.
Find
out how to avoid the usual pitfalls and mistakes every beginning
framer makes.
Look,
I already know this stuff works and can prove it. I walk my talk
by actively promoting my business every day. It's easy
and I can show you how to do it too.
