I want to create a group of 500 people to teach a method.
It’s a way to make good money quite easily (let’s say from 3k to 5k a month… some people manage to make 15k but it’s way more complicated).
I haven’t invented this method, I learned it from someone else, but I fine-tuned it to make it faster and with a bigger ROI.
So I want to teach my method and to sell it for, let’s say, $500 (my idea is actually to create a Facebook group, so everything is already set for videos, discussions, lesson modules....)
The question is: where to find 500 potential customers?
I wanted to use Facebook, but I got my ad account blocked because of suspicious activity (I did a test in a stupid way probably and they thought I was doing Multilevel Marketing). Apparently they don’t want to unblock it, so I don’t have that option at the moment.
So I started using LinkedIn (and some people are answering), but I’m afraid it’s going to be slow and time-consuming (I have to answer manually to everyone).
Any advice?
Consider buying a FB account to test with... it may be worth it?*
*I take no responsibility for this.
Is it a legit and easy to follow method? Can you show proof?
If so, just build a website/blog with all the details and go public with it.
There are several affiliate forums out there, put the website in your signature and people will come. But lemme repeat, it must be a legit way, otherwise you will get exposed and smashed by people in no time
If it works, the word will spread quickly.
A few salesthreads around the various open IM forums and you'll get them pretty quick.
@matuloo and @shishev, thanks!
I'll try this way, which is actually the first thing that I should have thought.
Ockham Razor often gives the best route to take... but for some reason I had not thought about advertising in Marketing forums!
P.s. the method is completely legit and it can actually be a starting point for bigger/long-lasting revenues. I guess I have to play my cards right and take the best of it!
When it´s really 3-5k/month GUARANTEED just give it for free to some people and let them get the word out about it.
There´s not much better than word-of-mouth recommendation.
Of course then you should be sure that it really works.
And one important thing that you should keep in your mind is just because it gives YOU 3-5k/month GUARANTEED doesn´t automatically mean that it´s guaranteed for others as well.
With such claims you will probably also get some attention from people who just look for quick and easy ways to make money online and who will fall for each and every Guru who promises them the stars.
There are more than enough of such people out there, they pay huge money for every possible shit, fall for every "Get rich quick" scam and will never succeed because they just don´t have what it takes.
But exactly such people will put the blame on you when they then don´t make 3-5k/month GUARANTEED and in worst case just one of such reviews can destroy a dozen good reviews.
^^^^^
What he said. I'm a moron, and can break any get rich quick scheme. If it's legit, then it should work for the fools too, as long as they put the time in. So, you must be clear in the marketing.
OK, so now we all want to know what is your method, can you teach us?
))
aye aye, count me in
And what do we learn from this thread?
When you want to find potential customers for a method with guaranteed profit just tell about a method with guaranteed profit and ask where to find potential customers 
Yeah, maybe you'd get a few clients even from here @lukeexperience heheh
The word guaranteed in combination with earnings usually indicates one thing: scam.
Thanks to everyone for answers and advice!
I am sorry for the clickbait title, but catching the eye is the nature of marketing… and I think there’s nothing bad about it as long as nobody gets hurt.
So of course there are some other details about the method, I never said: “you press a button and you will find 3 grand more in your bank account every month”.
But it’s not a scam at all. Actually, if someone “is lost” and is looking for a way to make money online…. He is just scamming himself if he doesn’t seize this opportunity (differently from people that are already making good money, because maybe they have better options).
Now, some PROs and CONs.
PROs
- This method gives profits mathematically (if you produce X, you WILL get Y);
- You don’t need to invest a lot of time;
- You don’t need a lot of money (you get around 4k for every grand you invest, so around 300% of ROI)
- There are no variables (well, there are, but only to get bigger results, not lower ones);
- You can have way bigger revenues if you make “your homework” properly (which I don’t, for example);
- You can have bigger revenues if you combine affiliate offers (I still have to try it out);
- You gather experience that can be profitable all life long (even if terms will change for the worse, sooner or later).
- Meanwhile, you are helpful to other people in different ways and you’re nourishing the forces of good (which is always a nice thing!).
CONs
- You should live in UK or USA, but there’s an easy turnaround with no bad consequences (I live in Italy);
- Even though you don’t need a lot of money to run this method, you can’t count on good cashflow because payouts take long (if you start the 1st of April, you will probably receive the first payment at the end of June).
I am still thinking about how to proceed.
From one point of view, I would like to teach the method and earn a nice amount from it in a short time.
Besides giving me a nice amount to invest for my ideas for the first time , this would also give me the chance to learn something new and improve (mostly, making videos and “managing” a small community).
From another point of view, there’s a small risk, which is that someone will scale the shit out of it… with the consequence that it will “exhaust” the efficiency of the method sooner and this nice game will be finished.
And at that point there will still be space for profits, but the “guaranteed” part won’t be there anymore.
If you are wondering why I’m not scaling the shit out of it by myself…. I should open multiple accounts (besides having bigger budgets to invest) and I don’t have the ability to do so (it would start to be blackhat and I can’t manage it alone).

Every further advice or opinion will be more than welcome!
does it have to do anything with Facebook? If it does, than no thanks. Too much of lottery nowadays to get acc banned for no reason and with 3k you can buy just 2 decent ones. 
Otherwise, I'm in of course.

Hmm sounds like it's something with FB / accounts / farming / whatever. 
Anyway drop a price, I might buy it and will leave a review here I guess? No need to spin around this thing, waste of time right?
Omg, you will hate me guys when you will see how easy it is (maybe it's particularly easy for me because it suits perfectly my style of working, but I can grant you that the mechanism is damn basic)
Anyway I will surely give a better price for all the STM people, I love this forum and it's really the minimum I can do to show my appreciation.
Since I am receiving so much interest I want to clarify some important aspects from the beginning, in order to be as transparent as possible (read again also the PROs and CONs in my previous post):
TECHNICAL DETAILS
- you will get profits mathematically, not automatically, so you have to produce X to get Y (but don't worry, it's not time consuming at all);
- you get around 4000$ every grand you invest ("cost of production" can vary a little);
- payment is net 60, so you need some grand if you want to "start non-stop" (because at the beginning you can't count on cashflow);
- the price for STM members will be $300, instead of $500.
THE COURSE
- I will teach the method on a Facebook group;
- I'll do my best to give the best support, but coaching 1 on 1 is not included;
DISCLAIMER
- if you are not from UK,USA or Canada I'm not responsible from eventual tax problems (I am from Italy and my accountant told me I won't have any problem, but I can't guarantee for other countries even if logically it should be ok).
GUARANTEED?
- I will give a 120 days money-back guarantee if you show me you did all the steps and you didn't have profits (it's actually a win-win for everyone, because this cannot happen, unless the method stops working.... in which case I'll be happy to give you back your money).
ETHICAL REQUEST
- In case you rock at applying this method, I have one ethical request: I want to give everyone the chance to do some guaranteed profits for a while.
So please do not go above 20k/month before 6 months (and I'll do the same), so there are less risks that the company starts applying limits to the application of this method.
It actually shouldn't create problems at all, but it's better to avoid exaggerations. It's my only request 
I will soon create a FB group where everyone can enter for free, where I'll disclose more details (probably in one short video).
This way, you will even know "what's the method about" before proceeding to enter the premium group where I'll teach everything.
Cheers 
I'm really curious what this "method" is.
Who will actually pay you that money?
Is that you?
Is that an affiliate network?
... ?
Apparently it was too good to be true.
Unluckily, for me and for the interested ones of you, the method stopped working yesterday.
Now, before I'll expose the not-anymore-working-guaranteed-method, please make a list of the scam methods so I'll take some inspiration for the future 
Just joking about the scams of course, but you can have some fun

@lukeexperience. The method died according to you. As for us who are still new, would you mind explaining how it worked? I'm here to learn even if the method is dead. I'm always eager to learn methods as they could give insights into other alternatives.
Had to digg through your post history. Found it.
