Biz/Org Benefits

Did you know that you can grow your biz or org for nicks with 5050? By utilising your community?

It’s much easier to do this than you think…

At 5050 we believe in ‘proximity’ this means that we believe you should be able to find customers, clients, and friends right from within your community in your suburb/area for free. The internet broke down distance and made it possible to do business globally…and you still can. But what it doesn’t do (not even Facebook) is grow true friends (you know, the people who will look after your cat while you’re away) and customers right where you live. And it doesn’t tell you ‘how’ you can do this yourself, but we do…in fact it’s pretty much what we focus on.

GET THE BALL ROLLING

It doesn't matter how small you are, or if you're just starting out. A little prep. always helps...

Got an email list?

Whether you’re a micro business, a small business or organisation, a business that offers a service or product, a cafe or club. It’s pretty simple to grow customers from your suburb/area on 5050 for free. You can get started with just a few email addresses (use your family's emails to begin with) and by send out an email to all. In your email, describe your biz/org and what you are promoting or giving away. To support your biz people will turn up to receive your promo or giveaway, and even become Bestie Support subscribers!

Suggestion: If you are worried about how few customers you have to begin with, to get the ball rolling, you may like to ‘collab’ with another business or organisation. Eg. a cafe may like to collab with a bakery, or a gym with a sports club, or a home-based marketing biz with a real-estate firm. There are many combinations that can work - just take your first step, and get out there and ask!

Here's a colab. template that may help

Hey [First Name],
I've been following your content for a while and I absolutely love what you're doing in your business! I especially loved what you said about [X]. I am reaching out because I have an idea for a collaboration that I wanted to run by you.
You serve X audience] and I serve [X audience and was thinking we could do X thing to serve both of our audiences.

I would do [INSERT SERVICE: blog post, Facebook live, Insta stories, provide product for a giveaway, email blast, share niche specific knowledge], and together we could provide X value] for all of our followers! I am thinking of running this on [X date] if that works with your schedule too.
Let me know what you think! I'd love to hear back from you.

To get your first few customers is really important … and it used to be difficult. Start by by sending out emails to your existing customers in your suburb/area.

Suggestion: Explain what you do (just a couple of lines), give your address and offer a promotion or giveaway that promotes your biz/org.
People need to know that when they turn up to your biz/org premises that they can receive this. Or simply offer a discount if they turn up to your event.

Many people like to support their local biz/orgs who also love a deal and will turn up.

The date of your first event can be entered when you list your organisation in ‘Description,’ and also in ‘Deal of the Day.’
When people turn up to your event have your Bestie Support qr on display. Make known all the benefits to them if they scan in and join 5050 as Bestie Supporters and the benefits to your organisation.

You will be able to keep track of who is supporting your organisation by being a Bestie Supporter, by logging in to your organisation’s account and viewing the list of users that are Bestie Supporters and Redeemers in the menu log. i.e. Loyal faithfuls who support your business and what you do.
