Newbies: How to make money with your investments in IM tools/Software.

If you are like me, you have bought a lot of productivity and automation tools to make your work in internet marketing easier and do things faster. Most times, you end up not using these tools beyond the first one week.

How would you like to earn money using these tools that are lying on your computer collecting digital dust? All you need to do is to use these tools to provide a service to others. There are many people who are not as fortunate as you to invest in these tools, but are looking longingly at the sales pages saying to themselves, " I will buy this when I can afford it, soon."

Remember the gold rush days when it was more profitable to sell shovels? In effect, this is what you are doing with the tools you purchased thinking you will use it extensively to set up your online empire.

Want some examples to see how to use this? I will use some of the the tools I have on my pc to give you examples:

a. Keyword Finding/Keyword Research service - no you are not competing with the big boys here. What you are doing is to find keywords for niches specified by your customers, not some random niches that no one wants.

b. Article submission services: You have an article submitter? You can create accounts for your clients and submit their articles for them.

c. Convert articles to videos. I have two tools that I can do this with.

d. Create macros for specific purposes and sell the macros as a time saving tool.

e. Create tutorials on how to do things. (I have a tool that does this. All I need to do is to send the html page it creates to my client, or even post it straight to their wordpress blog.

f. Find Micro niche markets for aspiring niche marketers.

g. Create pdfs for people who don't know how to do this, or don't have the tools for it.

h. Create brandable pdfs and send it to clients with brander application and instructions on how to use it.

i. Create hyperlinks for people within articles to convert certain words into links. Sure people can do it themselves, but I am talking about doing this for bulk articles.

j. Convert articles into a pdf ebook.Yes, there is a software that does this.

k. For the LSI and silo site creation people, segregation of keywords into thematic groups is a good service. YOu can do this for adwords users too.

I can think of lots more ideas, but I bet you get the drift of where I am going with this. I personally use this as a paid service for offline clients who want to get their feet wet online by setting up a wordpress blog for them and automating stuff for them.

Of course, in addition you can use your intellectual property (brain) to offer services that require thinking, like writing articles, seo, etc. to broad base your services if you want.

(Note: some of the tools have their own rules about how you can use the stuff produced using the tools, so be careful on this).

Any warriors want to contribute more ideas?
