PAY NO MONEY - make us earn it

In my other ventures I always wanted people selling me advertising to say "pay no money, let us earn it". They never did. Well I put my money where my mouth is.

If you have something that we can sell as an online impulse buy, and price to be a very good LIMITED offer*, we do a Pay No Money deal.

This model works very well for most service sectors - restaurants, pubs, hairdressers, gyms, tourist attractions, leisure facilities etc. where your aim is to bring in potential repeat customers, and/or word of mouth.

It also works for retailers if a satisfied customer is likely become a repeat customer.

Example - ABC Cosmetic Clinic wants new customers, but doesn't want to pay us any money. We work with them to create a "Looking Good" section that covers all the usual areas and treatment options, and Sponsored by ABC Cosmetic Clinic. In return we sell 10 Peels a month at 50% usual price.

*The key to these offers, for both Likal and you, is to make them very limited as this serves to:-

• Push for Action - with only 10, no 9, no 5 Skin Peels on offer, the buyer has to act NOW.
• Limit Liability - since only 10 Peels are in the offer, the clinic's maximum possible cost is that of delivering 10 Peels.
  • And probably close to zero as it uses staff time which is otherwise unutilised, (if staff are fully utilised they wouldn't want the promotion in the first place), and a little bit of chemical peel.
• NEW Customers - Likal reaches people who don't drive past, and who wouldn't think of going to see you.
• QUALIFIED Customers - the pricing is always designed to allow people to try that to which they aspire. The person who buys a £50 Peel Offer (normal price £100) is probably either an existing client of another clinic, and open to switching allegience, or someone who has never quite taken the step of using a clinic before. Impress them with your service, and they will be back for more.
