"BULK CASH"

How To Make Fast Cash By Offering
Your Mobile Advertising Service In Bulk

by Ben Deleon, www.brandelinc.com

When starting your own mobile text broadcast service, here's a simple marketing strategy that you can quickly implement. It's called "Bulk Marketing", and it can help you raise cash - real fast.

A TIMELY SERVICE: The growing acceptance of mobile messaging as a critical marketing tool is one reason why mobile broadcast has become such an attractive money-making opportunity. Mobile is the hottest new form of advertising service. And with more than 250 million mobile customers in the U.S., mobile advertising is destined to be the next evolution in marketing. With mobile text broadcast, you can offer a timely service that can bring in the numbers.

BASIC NUMBERS: Using Brandel's new short-code-based mobile text broadcast system, you can start your own service (with a License for up to 100 Broadcast Clients) for as little as $475 per year. And if you purchase the package with 500 Licenses, your cost is only $975. This means your average cost per Broadcast Client can be as little as $1.95 per client per year.  

THE RETAIL APPROACH: Once your mobile broadcast service is in place, you have the option to market your service on a retail basis or via bulk deals. On a retail level, you can charge your Broadcast Clients any price you want. The most common pricing we've seen range anywhere from $99 to $600 per year ($50 a month).

THE "BULK" APPROACH: In addition to offering individual Broadcast Accounts to one of the fastest ways of making money in offering mobile broadcast services is to market Broadcast Accounts in BULK. This means selling Broadcast Accounts in BULK quantities, at BULK prices.

Here are some ideas you might want to consider...

• Sell All Your Accounts In Bulk
If you purchase a mobile broadcast package with 100 Licenses, you can turn around and sell ALL your 100 Broadcast Accounts -in bulk - to an organization with a large membership based, a marketing firm that can resell the service to their customers, or to a fund-raising group that offer your mobile advertising service as a way to raise funds for their cause. Instead of the suggested retail price, you can charge a low rate of $20 Per Account. For your 100 Accounts, you can get $2,000.


• An organization can sell these 100 broadcast accounts to their own members. And even if they sell the accounts at a discounted price, the organization can still make a hefty profit, making your bulk offer quite attractive.

• An independent marketing company can pay you $20 per Account (in bulk) and resell each Account for $195 each, giving them a lucrative margin that allows them to offer their sales people with a generous commission.
• Split Your Accounts - Half and Half
Using the same example of 100 Broadcast Accounts, you may consider splitting them in half. You can market 50 in bulk and the other 50 at full retail prices. For example, you can offer 50 units in bulk for $20 each, which would bring you $1,000 in one lump sum (which gives you an instant profit of over $500). Additionally, you still have another 50 accounts which you can market for $99 each - or more.

• Getting Your Money Ahead!
Of course, the key to bulk marketing is PREPAY. When you offer mobile broadcast accounts - in bulk - at prices ranging from $15 to $25 each, you should demand that you get paid in advance. Here are some sample numbers:

Quantity Sold

You Make

• If you sell 100 Accounts at a bulk price of $20 each...

$2,000

• If you sell 200 Accounts at a bulk price of $20 each...

$4,000

• If you sell 300 Accounts at a bulk price of $20 each...

$6,000

• If you sell 400 Accounts at a bulk price of $20 each...

$8,000

• If you sell 500 Accounts at a bulk price of $20 each...

$10,000

• How To Price Your Service!
Search the Web and you will see that a lot of short-code-based broadcast services charge a one-time Set-Up Fee (usually $99 or higher), a monthly fee (usually $50 or more per month), and a per-message fee (usually 10¢ to 25¢ per message).

Since Brandel's short-code-based mobile broadcast system allows for unlimited messages and unlimited subscribers, charging a retail price that approximates the rest of the competition will still put your service at a distinct advantage. However, if you charge less for a service that offers a lot more, you're practically untouchable.

From a Bulk Marketing point of view, there is very little competition, if any. You can basically charge whatever price you want. Using the chart above, you can see that 100 Broadcast Accounts - offered in bulk at just $20 each -  can bring you $2,000. Since you can purchase 100 Keywords (the equivalent of 100 Broadcast Advertisers) direct from Brandel for only $595, you can raise cash - real fast.
