    The standard -

    1. Create Website with a product

    2. Build list

    3. Drive traffic, and add JV partners, etc

    4. Build list - send offers to list.

    Then repeat the process with another product. Eventually all of that will be complete autopilot, but it does take work.

    Nothing is really truly automated. Not unless you have an auto responder sequence and a decent list size. All you really need is 1-2k subscribers and you can make $100 a day. That's not that hard to do. You can pay for traffic to reach that in a month or so.

      As Aaron intimated, there are few true 'autopilot' methods. Even if you did develop a profitable process, why/when would you stop increasing traffic or testing the conversion rate?

      That said, Kindle books are a fine passive income. Get a process going: outsource the writing, the cover design, pay for promotion, etc. Rinse and repeat. Amazon does most of the marketing for you after that. If you've done everything right (decent niche, decent cover, decent writing, decent description), then you'll see sales coming in on a regular basis, week after week, month after month, year after year.

        There's different stages of passive income.

        Pure - where you write a book, stick it on Amazon and forget about it

        Semi - possibly where you create, market, auto follow up, check once a week/month etc.

        Non passive - paid for the work you do.

    Yeah, stop reading whatever makes you think that you can earn on "autopilot" online from day one just by investing some cash...
    You are barking up the wrong tree, get your head out the clouds and back to reality...

    There is a ton of info available just take the time to look around...

      Thanks for the replay I know that already and I am realistic. When telling autopilot i did not mean to say investing $1000 and another day widrawing $5000 Just i was interested in selling something on internet with some potential. The main idea was to know how do you guys earn money online. LOTS of threads like this, but I was trully looking for a trusting guys with many posts and many Thanks received.

      Anyone could be my mentor in doing this? Can I pay to buy a product and then resell it? Like someone would write ebooks and i would try to sell it?

    Sorry skywalk there is no automated system that you just spend money and it automatically starts bringing you in millions... Even if you were to buy someone's complete business you still have to work to figure it out.

    Just find something you like to do in life and find ways to monetize it. I can tell let you into the big secret of making money on the internet. It's a good place to start. Choose One of each

    1. Create a product and sell it
    2. Sell someone else's product as an affiliate for commission
    3. Sell or Provide a service

    Once you find out which way you want to go then you send traffic...

    There are 2 forms of traffic.

    1. Free Traffic - Takes a little longer to build it up to get momentum.
    2. Paid Traffic - Almost instant traffic. Much quicker

    That's it you send traffic to a high converting offer...

    Also forget about the words "Internet Marketing" they don't exist...

    Internet Marketing is just Marketing on the internet.

    Anything you see on your computer screen with a price tag on it is Internet Marketing.

    Find something you like to buy and either promote it yourself or pay attention to how they sell it to you.

    If you're looking for something that runs on autopilot, I would suggest niche blogging (creating a review-type site around a particular niche like weight loss, electronics, dating...etc.) or creating a private label rights store. Private Label Rights is content that a user can purchase, edit, and use as there own. For example, a person that has a weight loss blog would look for weight loss PLR in Google. You can also take request and run specials.

      • SkyWalk,

        I think a concept that'd most likely be close to an income generation method on autopilot would be to hire a team of remote assistants that's managed by a project supervisor, in order to do the following for you:

        • Build a professionally designed content-rich site in a niche where a specific group of regular Internet shoppers with significant buying power have immediate needs (hobby needs) they'd immediately want to quickly satisfy and urgent problems (want-based problems) they'd urgently want to easily solve by buying relevant solutions;

        • Create attention-grabbing, enticing and compelling opt-in offers, opt-in copies, follow-up non-promotional emails with value that can supplement the benefits of your opt-in offers, and promotional emails with your recommended affiliate products and services that serve as effective solutions to their immediate needs and urgent problems;

        • Ensure that your onsite content effectively shows off beneficial knowledge and helpful expertise in your niche;

        • Rent out user / consumer / customer databases provided by authority list members of accredited direct marketing associations in the international sectors, individual countries and local areas where your target groups of regular Internet shoppers are based;

        • Create effective advertising emails for your opt-in offers that you'll send out to the users / consumers / customers in the databases that you rent out;

        • Create teaser offsite content that links to the full onsite content versions and opt-in offers in your sites that can show off your beneficial knowledge and helpful expertise in your niche, and post / share these offsite content materials in social media networks like Youtube, Facebook and others where your target groups of regular Internet shoppers frequently hang out;

        • Integrate Facebook retargeting code and Bing remarketing code into the pages of your site, in order to advertise your opt-in offers in Facebook, Bing and in any relevant site with Bing ads to people who have visited your site but have yet to grab your opt-in offers;

        • Create onsite content materials about controversial news stories, popular feature articles, trending Youtube videos and viral social posts that are relevant to your target groups of regular Internet shoppers;

        • Regularly participate and initiate relevant discussions in online places where your target groups of regular Internet shoppers frequently hang out, such as popular, heavily trafficked sites, blogs, Web forums, top viewed Youtube video pages, Youtube channels with massive subscribers, Facebook Fan pages with massive followers, Facebook groups with massive membership bases, etc.; and

        • Directly contact the admins, owners and Webmasters of those online places, for possible guest posting arrangements, content syndication partnerships, ad banner / mailing list ad / advert placements, JV deals and so on; and

        • Advertise your opt-in offers via Facebook PPC / PPM, Bing Search and Display PPC, ads in credible CPA and PPD networks, etc.

          OR let your affiliates do that.

              it's all about scale and one person can only scale so big.

              What you state is not fact. But thanks anyway.

                Yeah, believe what you want.

                If you develop your own products and services, and just rely, as you said, on affiliates alone to do the things that I listed in my first post on this thread -- Best of luck with that, since most affiliates who know what they're doing, which'd be the best affiliates to have in my opinion, , would most likely want to see decent product / service offer sales margins, not to mention a credible and sustainable development company behind those products / service offers, before they sign up as affiliates of products / service offers --, then you'd be relying on your affiliates alone to earn income for you, which won't be a sustainable income generation venture on autopilot to invest in. So:

                If you develop your own products and service offers, then a sustainable approach is to:

                prepare investments in building a team of remote assistants on salary that's managed by a project supervisor on salary -- Best way based on my experience is to build a brick and mortar business with regular employees supervised by managers who in turn are managed by department heads who in turn are supervised by executives who in turn are supervised and guided by board members who in turn are supervised by you, the principal / managing director / founder, which is why I chose to build a brick and mortar company when I started in 2005 --, who'd do ongoing development and advertising and marketing of your own products and service offers; and

                This means you'd also be investing in doing everything that I listed in my first post in this thread, for your own products and service offers. Plus:

                You'd be heavily investing in sourcing out affiliates and in developing and managing and updating an affiliate platform and in preparing funds for refunds and chargebacks and for pruning your affiliate lists and for providing support to your customers and affiliates...

                Now, my entire point is =>> That sort of complicates the idea of a simple income generation venture on autopilot, which I assume the OP wanted based on what he said in this thread, don't you think?

                  There's one simple process which needs to be worked upon.

                  STEP 1: Choose A Niche
                  STEP 2: Choose Affiliate Products in that niche
                  STEP 3: Create a Freebie and a Squeeze page
                  STEP 4: Get AWeber or GetResponse to collect leads.
                  STEP 5: Promote Affiliate Products to the list
                  STEP 6: Create Your Own Product
                  STEP 7: Replace one Affiliate Product with your own Product
                  STEP8: One-by-One, replace all affiliate products with your own products..

                  That's it. 8 Simple Steps. But there's a whole lot of work involved!

    Nothing is truly automated but the fastest and most "autopilot" method I know is getting an affiliate product that sells well and driving paid traffic to it.

    Cheers,

    I'm a complete newbie like you... I already bought couple IM courses, but they gave me just the basics of IM. The one course that gave me results is Kindle Money Mastery course. In 2 months I already make around $200-$250/month of passive income. I highly recommend you to buy it because you it is pretty easy to learn and you can make money in your first month.

    IM is not for the lazy.

    If you're looking for a full automated solution, you better have a plan. Nobody will sell you their automated method, and if they do it won't be profitable in the long run.

    Ok. Thanks for the answer.

    Just is it worth working with clickbank and buying paid traffic?
    Would it make a profit?

      absolutely it works if you know what you are doing.

      if however you don't know much about paid adverting or preselling and many other things then you wont make back your investment.

      the answers is i can, you probably can't because you haven't put in the time to be good at the things it takes to make money online as an affiliate or doing many other things.

      autopilot income exists, but not for lazy newbies.

          If you can set up a marketing campaign that gets you results (sales), you can leave it on for a long time and still earn money while you are away from your computer. Before you do that, you need to test a few places to see which ones get you results and which one don't.

    Probably only thing that would be autopilot would be something you spend a lot of time building before you hit the autopilot stage. There is no push-a-button-and-you're-done system except for things that tend to make a very small amount of money.
