How to make money using people you know
Do you want to make money? Do you have a business idea, that sounds ok? You have a great resource in all the people you know.
You can get from them:
1. feedback. Always ask for feedback from your friends, because you need a 3rd party opinion. Usually people are to in love of their ideas and do not keep the eyes on the ball anymore.
2. endorsement. Probably your acquaintances have a name and a company behind them. Ask them to give you a testimonial (of your character or of your product). Ask for a recommendations. Make a movie with them asking them to testify that you/your idea (to make money) is cool.
3. money (as financing). Well, in order to make money you need to invest money (usually). You can have that money or you can borrow them. Friends can help you, if you are a trustworthy person
4. money (as clients). If you will offer something that can be useful to them, then you can have the first clients from your friends.
Anyway they will have to pay for that service/product, why not to buy from you?
5. recommendations for their friends as well. Ask them if they have any potential clients for you. Ask them to give you an entry… This will help you sell through people that know people that know people
6. use other resources from them. Every people has access to some free/cheap resources. Is a petty to to use them. If a friend of yours has a server, ask him to host your site. If other have programming skills, ask him to help you for free with the programming, and so on.
The idea is that every person you know, if you kindly ask her, can help you somehow. If they won’t help you, then you know to disregard it in the future.
You must ask something from every person you know, so you can make more money. After all, it’s in their advantage as well so you can grow up financially.
