Dropbox to the rescue!
Dropbox has a feature called file requests that allow you to create a custom upload link and then share that with your group; and it takes just a few seconds to setup.
- If you don’t have a Dropbox account, get that setup quickly and take advantage of their free account level allowing you up to 2GB of online storage and file sharing.
- If you already have an account or once you have created one, visit dropbox.com/requests to setup your link.
- Click the Create a file request button
- Create a label for what you are requesting. If this will be a new section of your Dropbox account, a new folder of that name will be created automatically.
- Share the link that Dropbox has generated for you. It will look something like this – https://www.dropbox.com/request/5Bzo0JDHDizyUjqFH3nF
- If you want to get fancy, you can create a simplified link like johndoedesign.com/sharing at your domain that redirects to the Dropbox link or you can use Google’s URL Shortener to simplify it.
See? That was easy! Happy sharing!

Our web design program is really taking off! We are already submitting about 20% as many web design deals as merchant services deals and the numbers are climbing! This is exciting, but one question I have received from many sales people is, “What is your script?” So, today, I want to give you my pitch for appointment scheduled leads with our web design program.
Appointment Scheduling: For this prospecting method, you are calling the business owner, scheduling an appointment and then going in to pitch the web design program.
Here is the pitch I use:
“Hi, my name is James Shepherd with John Doe Design. I am a local business owner designing websites that are geared towars driving foot traffic into your business. I wanted to give you a quick call today because we have waived our up front design fees for local businesses so we basically do the design work for free and I wanted to find out if there was a good time that I could come by to show you some of the designs we have done lately?”
If you use this pitch on the phone, they will not immediately agree to a meeting very often, but instead they will give you “buyer signs” which are basically questions. Most business owners will be curious. If you get a question, the best way to handle it is to provide them with the best answer you can and then say, “Bob, it really sounds like we should at least sit down and talk for a few minutes so I can learn more about your business and answer your questions, would you be available tomorrow afternoon for 10 or 15 minutes to talk about your online presence?”
The objection you will hear most often other than the typical, “Not Interested” is something like, “We just had a new website created” or “We already have a website up.”
The best response to this is, “That is great Bob, I am glad you are already taking your online presence seriously. Our company isn’t really focused on the design or creation of the website, which is why we do that part for free, our main focus is on helping you grow revenue from your online presence through social media and email marketing, while using your existing website as a hub. We even offer eCommerce and email marketing solutions that we can add to your existing website. If I was able to keep your current design in place but transfer your website hosting to our company so we could help you grow your online presence, I am sure you would at least want to sit down and speak with me for a few minutes wouldn’t you?”
Remember, the goal of your phone call is simply to get into the business to see the business owner.
Have a great day in the field!
James Shepherd
]]>We have thousands of sales partners who follow our resources but sell for other processors and while we would love for them to switch to us for merchant services, they may already have a processor they like. We are excited to partner with many of these individuals for the first time so they experience what John Doe Design is all about!
#2 – An Innovative Program. Our web design program is unique and I believe it will be the start of a new direction for this growing industry. What we are doing is moving the entire industry in a direction that is geared towards providing independent sales partners with a great opportunity!
No one is offering a web design pricing structure like we are, and no one is offering upfront and residuals at the rates we are offering, simply because no one else is marketing through independent partners in the field.
#3 – Growing Margins and Profits. While we are rolling out a simple, inexpensive program for a business owner to create the foundation of their online presence, we also have additional programs that the sales partner will be able to sell now and in the future to grow their profit margin.
Small business owners understand that they need to invest more in their online presence, and they are ready to move their marketing budget online for social media marketing, video marketing, pay per click advertising and content creation and we are working to provide all of these options to our clients.
#4 – Full Support for Clients. Once you make a sale and hand it off the client will have access to our support and design team via our toll-free number. There is no need for you to be stuck providing support and can continue selling to benefit from the commissions and residuals.
Partner with us from day 1 to start building your web design portfolio and then watch your revenues grow as we educate your clients on what they could and should be doing to grow their online presence by partnering with us! This is a very exciting time to be involved in a web design reseller program and John Doe Design, as always, is creating the program that is best for the sales partner.
