How To Approach A Guru In 5 Easy Steps
by: John Stafford

It's in all the books and courses lately, to
be successful online you have to joint venture
and tap into established marketers (gurus) huge
lists and high traffic websites.

If you've ever tried it though, you know that
getting ahold of a guru is not always as easy
as it looks :-)

So how we track down the ever elusive "Guru"
and convince him to do business with us?

Here are five quick tips that have worked for
me and can work for you also.

First off though keep something in mind:

*They are REALLY busy*

When you do this stuff full time, every day and
have to manage 8 payperclick campaigns 12 websites
and 300 daily e-mails - time get's really tight.

Okay now, Step 1:

Use their name and get their attention FAST in
the subject with what your e-mail is about.

Just saying: Hi John isn't enough

Use something like:

John - Joint Venture or Interview Request

Step 2: Get to the point

If you've got them reading your e-mail don't waste
the opportunity, introduce yourself and explain the
details but keep it short, if they're interested
you can save it for the reply mail.

Step 3: Be Specific

Tell them what's in it for them and their subscribers.

This is your shot so make it a good one, they get so
many requests in a given week that you have to make
yours stand out from the crowd or all is lost.

Step 4: Give it time

Don't mail again and again obsessively if they don't
respond right away. It's okay to follow up later once
in case they missed your mail but pestering them will
get you the delete key fast.

Step 5: Don't give up

If one guru declines to work with you, don't take it
personally. It might be the wrong time or offer for
their list.

Just end it politely and move on to your next
prospect.

Successful joint ventures happen every day online and
if you follow these 4 steps, you can make it happen
for yourself and explode your online business.

What are you waiting for?

Go do it now!
