Did you see the news that NiceOffers.com now has over 1,000 registered merchants? In less than four months!
I've been building an infrastructure at several of my sites and some Squidoo lenses, and I'm almost ready to start some serious offline promotions in my local area.
I have a feeling this is going to be huge.
Anyone else with any thoughts?
Act on your dream!

How's it going with NiceOffers....have you an update?
I'm a Brit living in London UK. I often consume Chinese and Indian takeaway food.....yep!.....consume is the right word I guess?....I'm often bloody starving by the mid evening time! So using the old mlm staple of....."use the product and share it with others and find others who will do the same", I'm looking to pitch into the takeaway scene with `Nice Offers'.
Well, as I'm a regular customer at a takeaway called `The Far East' I'm thinking that Nice Offers would be a bit like investing in my local eatery as well as getting a bit of a discount too! It also helps the `The Far East' compete with other takeaways in the same street. I've seen a figure quoted somewhere that we are now 16000 SFI'ers in the UK now.....so I guess that we're on the way to filling up the new (90,000) Wembley stadium shortly.....and many of the punters buy a takeaway, before they make it home after seeing a soccer match or pop concert there....so its not just me lining up a personal discount!!
I'll post up here my progress with Nice Offers in the UK......maybe start a NiceOffers blog also.
Cheers EEDS

I'm quite interested in Nice Offers but as an Australian am wondering how it works for non American companies. If anyone has anyexperience in this I'd love to hear about it.

Mezz,
I don't see a problem for non American companies. Any business that wants to use NOC decides how much or little discount (2% or 20% or) .....whatever! They don't need to pay anything up front. Only when an SFI or NOC affiliate hands over the vouchers he printed off from the (say) motor cycle distributor NOC affiliated website, for his new bike purchase, does the deal kick in.....its a sort of `win, win' situation. The bike shop is already registered on the NOC website.
Basically any product/service worldwide becomes a `Veriuni/NOC' retail opportunity. I hope this helps
Regards

I understand that. What I'm wondering about is when the system does start working and the bounties have to be payed. Do the companies have to send the cheques in US dollars. If there is a lot of exchange rate fiddling then I'm wondering if the businesses will be turned off by this?

As far as I'm aware they can use PayPal, so it should be no more complicated than using Ebay. As I'm a UK resident and the dollar/pound exchange rate is currently favourable to Brits I don't see a problem right now for local situations. As far as internet prospecting is concerned generally then I would check out http://www.oanda.com.

I'm a fairly new SFI affiliate and have spent most of my time building up a team, but I have recently been looking really hard at NOC, and I have to say the potential alone is staggering. You can send prospects either a letter, a prospecting card, or the postcards. You don't really have to go door to door. All you would really need to do is acquire a list of businesses in your city, or any city really, from the respective chambers of commerce, and send them a card or letter. Some will, I'm sure, put it in the "circular" file, others will respond. Only the thing is, what is the best way to drive traffic to the NOC retail site?

This post might seem a bit cynical....or even get me banned!....but leaving a comment on a porn review site (staying on topic of course!) with a http://www.niceoffers.com/affiliate signature trace can elicit some interesting results (kidding.....kidding!). Cheers EEDS

You are right of course....I was merely being frivolous......but not totally! I would claim have sponsored, by this method into SFI, at the time one of those rather naughty PR sites, comments section, was being squatted by Chinese (blame them) looking to market their range of De-humidifiers...LOL!....so its not just me guv!
However, I will try to answer Allen Owens question from just recent personal experience with marketing NOC. I've been cold calling......yep....its that blatant! I have a hunch that SFI have been rather clever at positioning NOC in a commercial environment for a couple of reasons, firstly by-passing the now universal taboo on personal cold calling (without `opt in' etc).
I was and still am, inspired by Jim Kosserts story as related in `Turn Down the Pressure'. If you are not familiar with his tale, then I will stick my neck out here and recommend checking out Jim's story in; The Wave 3 Way to Building Your Downline by Richard Poe (Prima Publishing: ISBN 0-7615-0439-7) see also:http://www.richardpoe.com.
Jim Kossert built a downline by creating an endless prospect list using his `disqualification' method c/w subsequent skilful probing....a bit like Columbo, you may recall the 1970's `mystery movie' TV detective, played by Peter Falk, who always reached his prospect (suspect!) obliquely....by-passing their defences and creating a semi warm environment .....before `zapping' them!
The second reason I believe NOC is a canny SFI promotion, is it kind of evades the internet marketing frenzy, as evident on forums such as http://www.warrior.com. Recently I've just been picking up traditional junk mail from my lobby floor each morning, my free prospect list and phoning them about NOC...."business is great and we're looking for more"....to a collection of home decorators, 24hr plumbing, pizza delivery, apartment cleaners, car valeting...the usual small business stuff. Inevitably I must apply SWSWSW...Next (Some will, Some Won't, So What!...next!).
So basically with NOC, I'm up for it! Incidentally, where's Jim Kossert these days? I would be interested to hear the next instalment of his tale.

| NOC is basically coupons and discounts right? So how do you make money by promoting it? Is it similar to an online mall? Last edited on Tue Aug 28th, 2007 05:38 am by Adrianne

Hallo Adrianne,
The discounts are applicable to noc/sfi distributors. When you sign up a new retailer or service into NOC then any other noc/sfi distributors will be able download the vouchers off the noc website directory and then go into the store and claim their discount....easy isn't it?!
Your noc distributor commission can be banked via Paypal or alternatively placed directly on the new sfi/noc card. Every time a noc/sfi distributor hires a car at your local firm you get automatic commission credited on your card.
I've been focussing on takeaway meals in the UK, as I get a lot of junk mail from them!....so I'm not cold calling......right?!.... which lightens the task. Another thing that makes it easy, is that each business that signs up, gets a free internet listing on the noc directory.
There are 16000 sfi/noc distributors in the UK. Also U.S. distributors visiting the UK would be able to check the directory and save on their UK stay. As a result, I'm looking to also sign up London hotels into the scheme....car hire firms.....letting agents...theatre ticket outlets.....discos?..... they could use that free net advertising....right? Savile Row tailors....Lords cricket club?!....ooops! maybe not that last one?
Cheers EEDS

| Is this something new? Reason I ask is because when I put in my zip code, there were only 12 businesses that came up. I'm currently with MWP and there are hundreds of biz in my area, but there were a couple of places that were not in the list so I thought I would see if nice offers listed them. Unfortunately, they did not. I'll check back in a few months to see if more businesses are listed.

You're right about NOC, it is a new business. Although its parent company SFI has been around since 1985. Therefore all SFI distributors are also entitled to use NOC voucher discounts. NOC is clearly biased towards retailing. This feature suits me because I used to work with the U.K based mlm Kleeneze, which used catalogue mail order, rather similar to Avon. All sponsoring was then underpinned by a solid retailing base.
What or who is MWP?! Perhaps its a U.S. based business, because I've not so far encountered this name in the U.K.

MWP is similar to nice offers because you get a discount at places that you alread go to such as movies, ordering take out, service your car, even buying groceries. You can also get discounts when you shop online.
If you click on the website in my sig link, then click "Save Money", you will be able to select your country to see which local businesses in your area will accept this membership. If you see any value in it, give it a try for a few months to see how much money you save.

In the UK there seems to be 2 outlets where you could possibly recoup the MWP monthly minimum spend (Partyland & Starbucks). So I could perhaps achieve this minimum target by drinking a lot more coffee!
There appears to be some similarity between the NiceOffers & MWP programs, but NOC look to have more outlets operating in the UK, for about the same monthly spend. So I'll continue to apply persistence & consistency with NiceOffers/SFI. However good luck with your on line mlm venture.
