Still, a lot of small businesses are not on social media so, it’s a great opportunity to make money with this business. And most of such business owners don’t even have an idea on how to setup a professional looking social media accounts. That’s where you come step in.

To find small businesses with no social media handles, you can either do it manually by searching such businesses on Google or Google Maps, but that takes a lot of time and effort. So, instead of that, we’ll use a free tool called D7 Lead Finder to do the exact same thing in just a few clicks and matter of seconds.

Then, you’ll see an option called “Lead Search” at the top of the interface. Click on it and you’ll get an interface, where you’ll get two options.

Yep, you heard that right! You’ll setup their social media accounts for free. We’re doing this for our benefit, but how, you’ll know in a minute.
You’ll offer to create their Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter accounts for free. This grabs their attention because, let’s face it, who doesn’t like free stuff?

To manage their accounts, you can charge somewhere between $150-$500 or more depending on the services you’ll provide. You can pitch them with a basic package where you’ll create and post 30 posts for them every month and charge them accordingly.
Using AI to Create Content & Manage Their Account

After a business owner says yes to your offer, you need to create content and post them on their behalf. Now, here’s where you can use AI to help you do most of the stuffs.

How to Reach out to Businesses?
In this post, I’ve covered the entire working process, but didn’t mention how you’ll contact your potential clients. So, here’s how you’ll reach out to them.
The D7 Lead Finder tool also gives you the business owners emails so, you can send them a personalized messages to pitch your services. Here’s a sample mail you can send them.
Headline: Is [Competitor] stealing your customers? (NOTE: Go to Google/Google Maps and search their competitors. And add the competitor's name in the competitor field in the email. Body: YES! THEY ARE, but it's completely legal. I noticed that [Competitor] are highly active on social media, but you are not. They're getting new customers from [FACEBOOK/TWITTER/INSTAGRAM](Choose the platform you're targeting) that can be your potential customers! So, if you'd like to take back what's yours... HIT REPLY. I'll show you, how you can get on the social media train and get more customers. [Your name]
This is just a sample email example. You can change it as you want to make it more personal and convincing, or you can use your own creativity to create an email to send to the business owners.
You need to send 5-10 such emails everyday and just watch, how your business grows! Some may reject your offer, but that’s completely fine! It’s a game that has two possible outcomes and you can’t always be on the winning side. Sometimes, you’ll be one the losing side too! But the thing is, you need to maintain consistency, no matter what.
