Drop Cards

If you want a simple offline technique to get leads, Use Drop Card or Sizzle Card marketing for your opportunity. I use drop cards to build my business.

 

Asking yourself what Drop Cards / Sizzle Cards are and how do I use them?   These Drop Cards / Sizzle Cards look like a real and feel like a 0.00 bill and come in different denominations.  I have found that the 0.00 pulls the best response.

 

 

You will need a message in your Drop Card / Sizzle Card to get people to log on to your website. Use you imagination.

 

Make sure you put your website address on your drop card. This is where you want your leads to go.

 

You will want some kind of message on the sizzle card to pull people to your website. My cards say, “Disappointed?  Don’t Be.  I can show you how to make 25- 30 real ones every month”

 

The finder of my Drop Card will then go to my website where they will see a video of me with a Drop Card and my opt-in page.   I have a capture form on my website that allows me to capture visitors information so I can present them with other offers and training over time.

 

Here are six of the top strategies that I have found to get the cards into peoples hands.

 

Newspaper Machines:  My routine includes hitting newspaper machines around the area, put my money in and open the machine. I then place a drop card in each newspaper in the machine. When the next person purchases a paper they get one of my sizzle cards.

 

Gas Stations: I will place a Drop Card in the credit card reader of the pump.  I don’t fill up at one gas station, I’ll stop at three or four gas stations on days my car needs a fill up.

 

Book Stores:  I walk to the Home Business and Self Improvement section and place a Drop Card in the most popular books.  I have gotten the best results by placing the Drop Card in “Think and Grow Rich” by Napoleon Hill.

 

Junk Mail:  Why not use the junk mail you throw away? Most junk mail comes with a paid postage envelope. I place a couple drop cards in the envelope and drop them in the mail. There are live people in those mailrooms opening the envelopes.

 

Restaurants:  This method has brought me the most leads. I just put a sizzle card in with the waiters or waitresses tip. This has helped me put many people into my organization.

 

Just Drop:  Never leave home without your sizzle cards so you won’t miss an opportunity to get them out to potential prospects.

 

Take action with sizzle cards and get them out on a daily basis. It is a numbers game. The more cards you put out the more leads you will get. Give them to family members to help distribute the cards. My kids have a great time helping me distribute them.

 

These cards work for any business or industry, grocery stores, video rentals, repair shops, automotive, network marketing etc…

 

Implement this technique right away and get immediate results!

Three sampling procedures

December 3rd, 2009 at 07:53pm Under General

In the previous article, three sampling techniques were discussed: dry, melt and solution sampling. Each of these incorporates a number of specific methods and equipment, and also offers specific advantages. Determining the most appropriate sampling method depends upon the type of material being processed, as well as its estimated precious metals content. Because of their composition and chemistry, precious metals bearing catalysts are usually sampled with dry sampling processes. Dry sampling is used when materials cannot be dissolved in a solution, or are inappropriate to melt, either because of their structure, or because of the cost associated with melting vs the possible return. As it is difficult to achieve homogeneity, dry sampling is more complex, and potentially less precise, than melt or solution sampling; in fact, this method generally requires better judgment than the others. An ideal dry sampling system is capable of drawing representative samples from free flowing catalyst according to the principles of Pitard2 and Gy3 and the practices of Merks4 at a rate of 2000 - 3000 lb/hr.

As sampling is considered the most important procedure in the precious metals recovery and refining process, it must be viewed from the perspective of the refiner as well as the refiner’s customer. Clearly, the customer’s goal is to receive the maximum possible value for the remaining precious metals in their spent catalyst materials. The refiner, on the other hand, must not only consistently meet that goal for its customer; it must also provide the customer with detailed documentation of how this value was determined. The refiner and customer each have responsibilities that must be addressed in order to ensure a mutually rewarding relationship based on fair, straightforward business practices. Without this, there is no possibility that a precious metals refiner can retain its existing customer base; little possibility that it can continue to attract new customers; and not much probability that it can remain in business over the long term.
As previously mentioned, dry sampling procedures begin by converting large lots of spent catalysts materials (as much as many t) to as little as a few g, in a homogenous mass, to distribute molecules of precious metals and other constituents evenly. In essence, when the material cannot be broken down any further, the results of sampling (or reducing) the homogenous mass represent an accurate ratio of the precious metal content in the overall matrix.
