1. My course is complete with everything you need to be able to get started the same day you get the course. I include all forms, samples and materials needed to enable you to get started immediately.

2. I include page inserts so you can quickly and easily put together your own presentation. This makes it a breeze to explain the concept to potential advertisers.

4. I show you how to truly maximize your income from restaurant placemat advertising, and I do it not just from the perspective of selling ads on the mats. I take it far beyond and give you real examples of what you can do to multiply your income streams for many years. The others courses are very basic and do not include the kind of stuff I reveal.

7.  I’ve received several calls from my competitors who secretly purchased my course and later called me up just to tell me how much they appreciated knowing my secrets! They have shared time and again how “they didn’t think of that”. My course includes MANYthings others courses simply have never thought of. This makes it hands down the very best value for you. That’s why I call it The Definitive Restaurant Placemat Advertising Guide. I believe it is the best available guide on restaurant placemat advertising.

8. I will show you how to strategically place very specific type ads on your mats that can make you very serious money for many years to come. My competitors do not offer this because all they want to do is sell you a course to show you how to do placemat advertising. Their course isn’t expansive in content. It is only focused on the basics of restaurant placemat advertising.

9. I reached millionaire status several years ago. I know what it takes to enjoy phenomenal success. As an entrepreneur I share things in my course you simply will never find in any other one, period.

How long does it typically take to find a restaurant that will agree to participate in the promotion?
It depends. In the course I show you how to find the best restaurants based on my list of criteria. All you have to do is simply follow my advice and it will make things much easier and much faster. Remember, the restaurant greatly benefits from the promotion and it is FREE to them. Saying YES is absolutely in their best interest.

How tough is it to convince a restaurant owner to participate in a promotion and accept the placemats for their restaurant?
Well, first of all you never have to convice them to do the promotion. Remember, you are NOT selling the restaurant anything. You are giving them the 10,000placemats for FREE. Free is always welcome, especially when it significantly benefits the restaurant in so many ways and can dramatically increase their profits. Typically you will simply walk in and show them a placemat and say the magic words I give you in the course. Trust me it’s VERY easy to do.

What are the benefits to the restaurant for agreeing to participate in the promotion?
1. The restaurant receives 10,000 FREE placemats.

2. The restaurant gets the top portion of the placemat to brand their name as well as promote any of their services such as catering, private parties, discount coupons etc. This encourages more business and engages the customers to spend more money. The restaurant likes that. :  ) Look at these examples. Look closely at the top portion of each mat and also the corners…

3.  The restaurant becomes the central hub of engagement that binds the participating advertisers together. This encourages more traffic and business within the community. Patrons see the restaurant as reaching out to help the community and they see it as favorable.

4.  The placemats keep the customers busy and engaged while their food is being prepared. This makes it seem like it took much less time to prepare their meal. This gives them a better over all experience.

5. The wait staff love the placemats because they make it much easier and faster to clean the table and prepare it for the next tip leaving customer!

6. Many restaurants actually purchase placemats for their tables. Since their objective is to always keep profits up and expenses down, unfortunately the placemats they usually purchase are very plain, boring and UGLY! The placemats you will give them are vibrant, colorful and engaging. Best of all they are FREE!

7. The placemats show that the restaurant genuinely cares about the community. By including the placemats on their tables they are very clearly saying to the local community that “we care” about you and invite you in to our family and business friendly environment.

8. The restaurant comes off like the hero to the advertiser because without the restaurant there is no restaurant promotion. This goes a very long way to bridge the gap between the restaurant and the local advertisers who will most certainly vist to see their ad on the mats.

9. The restaurant will most lilely pick up several new and long term patrons as a result of the placemats being on the tables. The reason is the advertisers will come in to see their ad and eat a meal. If they like the food and have never eaten in the restaurant before, chances are very high they will be back.

10. Word of mouth is the best form of advertising. Once the 10,000 placemats hit the tables, word of mouth will start spreading. This equals one thing… more business for the restaurant!

11. Many customers will take the placemat with them to use a a corner restaurant coupon for example. They may also take one to work and post it on the employee bulletin board showing the local area discounts.

Is it hard to sell the advertising space on the placemats?
Absolutely not. Remember, every business owner knows they MUST ADVERTISE their business. They are always looking for effective advertising methods that work. The more creative and least expensive the better. Think about it, if you were a business owner and you were approached about a promotion that was very affordable and would give you MONTHS of daily exposure within five miles of your business, wouldn’t you want to participate? Sure you would. It’s common sense. It’s very logical. This is one of many reasons why the restaurant advertising concept is so simple to implement. People just naturally “get it”.

How long does it typically take to sell all of the ad spaces on a placemat?
It depends. Rarely will you sell just a single sized ad. Most of the time the advertiser will opt for a larger ad. The reason they do it is very simple. They understand they are competing with the other advertisers and they want their ad to stand out. This is great for you because it makes you MOREmoney! Since their are only 16 ad spots on a placemat, even if you were to sell all single sized ads, you only have 16 spots to sell. However, since most advertisers will buy a double sized ad (which takes up two ad spots at a time) you really usually only have just 8 spots to sell. How long could it possibly take?

Is it possible to sell all of the ad spaces in a single day?
Absolutely YES! However, I have no idea whether you will or not. You may sell all of the spots in the same day or over a two to three day period. The speed at which you sell the ad spots can vary based on the criteria I give you in the course. I show you how to maximize your time and work smarter to make the whole process go as quick as possible.

What kinds of businesses tend to opt for advertising on placemats?
In the course I give you a list of my 50 favorites! I also explain why these types of businesses are your best bet when approaching new advertisers to quickly sell out of ad space. There are certain types of businesses that are obviously more suited than others. I show you the difference and tell you how to scan the local area around the restaurant to quickly and very easily spot the best businesses to approach.

Do the advertisers all have to be located within five miles of the restaurant to be included on the placemats?
No. Typically you will want to approach local area business owners that are physically located within five miles. The reason is that 85%of the business comes from within a five mile radius of the front door. However, there are some very good exceptions to this rule and in the course I outline what they are and show you how to easily use this to your advantage when looking for advertisers.

How often do advertisers want to renew their ad?
Most advertisers will want to participate again if they feel they received a good return on their investment. This is simple economics. Since the ads are inexpensive, the advertiser doesn’t have to generate much new business in order to justify the advertising expense. I show you in the course how to help the advertiser come up with a good ad that offers the best value to encourage customers to frequent their business and thus demonstrate the effectiveness of the promotion to the advertiser.

Are their any limitations or restrictions to the types of ads I can personally place on the placemats?
The only thing you need to do is simply exercise common sense and judgement. Of course you never want to place any ad on the placemats that the restaurant or customers may find offensive in nature.

How do I know the restaurant will actually use all 10,000 placemats on their tables?
Included in the course is a simple agreement the restaurant will sign with you before you start selling advertising space. In the event the restaurant should ever decide to stop using the placemats on their tables, you will have a cause of action against them for breech of contract. However, because of the many benefits to the restaurant you should never have any issues with a restaurant not wanting to use the placemats on their tables.

Do I have to design the advertisements personally?
No. The printer will do that for you. Sometimes you will even find advertisers who will prefer to give you camera ready art work.

How much money can I really make using the restaurant placemats money making concept?
Honestly you are unlimited in income potential. There is certainly nothing stopping you from doing more than one restaurant placemat promotion at the same time. You can do multiple promotions all over your town, the next town, city etc. Make sure you scroll up the page and enter your name and email in to the opt in box to receive my FREE 52 week bonus tips, techniques and super effective strategies for maximizing your income with restaurant placemats!

Will I really be able to contact you with questions and to get help if I need it?
Absolutely! I take a lot of personal pride in making myself available from Monday through Saturday 9AM to 9PM EST. I am happy to answer any questions, offer suggestions and help you in every possible way to have genuine success with this course.

What are the benefits to the advertiser?
1. They get their ads seen by a guaranteed minimum of 10,000 people who are each located within the golden five mile area. This means conditions are extremely favorable for those who see their advertisement and need their service, will patron their business.

2. The ad spaces are inexpensive. Business owners are always looking for low cost advertising that works. This is a very positive reason that instantly gets the attention of every potential advertiser.

3. People who see the placemat ads are usually in need of the exact services being advertised on the placemats. This is one reason I include my personal top 50list in the course. This ensures you always approach the right kinds of advertisers to ensure they get a good response from their advertising and want to do it again and again with you.

4. Impulse location purchasing. Every business owner loves and counts on a certain number of impulse purchases from consumers. This is why they create in store displays and end caps to draw more customers to buy. The placemats also work using this very same effective and persuasive marketing strategy. Think about it. You are sitting in a restaurant and you need to have your oil changed. It’s Saturday and you see an advertisement that reads… “Mention this ad and save $20. off your oil change”.Do you think this may influence your decision to buy? Do you think you will be more inclined to visit the oil change shop since they are conveniently located just down the street? Absolutely!

5. Word of mouth. It’s one of the most effective forms of advertising. Every advertiser will benefit whenever anyone sees their ad on the placemats and then tells their family, friends, co-workers etc.
