If you have been marketing online for a while now, and haven't tapped in to offline markets you are leaving money on the table. Marketers who focus on offline markets are reporting good conversions and are able to sell more on the backend.

Mostly they end up getting lifetime customers with recurring billing since offline merchants are not aware of the different options available. Recurring billing arrangements can be done via paypal, 2checkout and other payment processors.

Once you have established a solid reputation in your local community, your internet marketing skills can lead to greater success. Think about it most of these merchants would have never heard of terms like SEO , List building, Viral marketing so on and so forth.

Therefore your part is to educate your off-line audience on the benefits of having a web presence and get paid handsomely month after month. They are not only seeing some good results but are also learning something new from you every now and then.
