How do I find marketing people in USA, who will work on commissions-only basis to market for IT consulting?

Posted by Rowan 4 Comments

We are a 2 person start-up company. We have purchased a company with 10 years history, very good credit rating, and at zero employees, in NorthEast USA. Since we are tight on budget and are working as full time consultants ourselves, we are unable to market and expand the company. We were wondering if there are any websites/resources (besides posting an Ad on a jobs website) which we can explore to communicate to potential IT services marketing personnel in the NorthEast USA, to see if we can work on a commission-only basis initially. Once we start serving 2-3 clients and place a few consultants, we can afford to switch to a salary + commission option. This can be a great option for a marketing person who has contacts in the market but would like to work from home or work flex-time.
Thank You!

your best bet is to do a web based search for IT consulting….also put it in your profiles for what im servies you use that you are in need of people…there is a forum out there for any person..also look into any free advertising..like bullitian boards around your town at grocery stores or business…..and net work net work..join your local chamber of commerence,local b2b groups and become active and spread the word you are looking…

If you're tight on cash but can spare a few hours a week to do some breakfast or lunch meetings, or meet for coffee or drinks…

You should be ACTIVELY building up a network with other trusted business advisors, such as accountants, management consultants, and deeply-niched, non-competing computer consultants

Also, please note that the highest quality leads will come from

1) Getting involved in local B2B organizations

2) Participating in relevant local B2B trade shows/expos

3) Speaking at local organizational meetings/seminars

4) Holding your own topic-appropriate seminars

Most good sales people would not accept the deal you're proposing… and you'd end up starting out on the wrong foot with most of your new clients. (Who "owns" the client?!?)

So I'd strongly recommend investing an hour or two, contemplating the above to come up with a stronger marketing plan.

Best of luck,

Testimonials

As a business owner, I know how hard it is to get noticed. Selling real estate in a flat economy takes a lot of efforts. Real estate companies are pouring money into flyers and other expensive advertising trying to catch the attention of prospective buyers and sellers. How do you get found all this noise, in the marketplace? Get a website. Our old website has been up for years, it doesn’t seem to get much traffic and when they do come, we send them to www.realestate.com.au, so they can see our listings. It seems anybody can build a website, but unless someone can find your site, its only a glorified brochure. Our site www.raywehbe.com.au was lost, with millions of other webpages. We consulted with Rowan Shead and straight away he was able to identify the problems of the site and how busy the market is. Rowan takes a strategic approach, applying his sound business experience with marketing concepts which integrate with Social Media Marketing. Rowan Looks at websites as part of a series of processes that have to work together and compliment the business. Instead of just building a website, he researches the keywords people search in Google, analysed the market and the competition and what they were doing. Only after the research did he create a site that’s Google friendly. We now own multiple sites, which liked together, helping to get our message out. Our listings are starting to show on the first page of Google Rowan’s approach is very different from technicians who build websites. Rowan is first a marketer, who believes “it better to out think your competition, than outspend them.” Rowan is able to take concepts of direct response marketing and fuse them with Social Media Marketing, to get results. A rare commodity. Your faithfully Karim Semaan Manager Ray Wehbe Real Estate Parramatta

I feel very lucky to have worked with Rowan Shead on my website creation. I am extremely happy with the results. Not only does it look great, but more importantly, with his knowledge of marketing and the necessary Google key word association, I will not get lost in the ever growing directory which is the internet. My site could have been quite useless without his knowledge in this area. The other huge benefit is that not only has he passed on this knowledge, but the information required in the form of a manual, so I am able to make changes to and update my website myself in future. This to me, starting a small business is a huge bonus, so it will not cost me hundreds of dollars to change a few words at any given time in the future. I would highly recommend Rowan for any marketing or website contracts. He really cares about getting the best for his customers. Yours sincerely Maree Milligan La Petite Chef

In this day and age what with high unemployment, I am amazed in the lack of quality people available to assist in the development of marketing in the 21st century! Sales people today want everything handed to them on a silver platter so that they don’t have to work for their money. Conventional marketing today such as News papers, radio, billboards etc are overpriced and ineffective. The solution is the social media marketing that is taking the world by storm; the problem is finding the right people and businesses capable of helping me with solving my inability to understand the right way to tackle the Social Media Marketing. More companies and people like Rowan Shead are required to help small business tackle this 21st area of marketing! Regards Chris Pet B2B Networking Sydney
