The Real Deal Offline Series: "Would You Rather Have A $5000/mo Offline Biz Or $5000/mo Online Biz?"
Every now and then I'll get a problem client who makes me look back on my online marketing days and wish I'd never left. Thankfully, this doesn't happen to often, but I'd be lying if I said it never happens.
So, today I have a question for you.
Would you rather have a $5,000/month offline income stream from five clients or a $5,000/month income stream from 250 buyers buying a internet marketing $19.99 product?
Now, this may seem like a unreal hypothetical situation, but I would beg to differ.
See, as you continue to buy internet marketing and offline marketing products that you're actually implementing for yourself or your clients, several things begin to happen.
For starters, you continue to get better at online marketing for your clients. At the same time, you also begin to see other lucrative business opportunites just because you have developed your skills, gathered resources and now have some extra cash available.
For me it was product creation. One day a light bulb went off in my head while I was creating a marketing campaign for a client AND simultaneously directing the design team on the packaging of this marketing campaign.
Suddenly, I realized that if I could do this for a client, then I could do this for myself. I could simply have my design team create a wordpress template, powerpoint template, ecovers & report covers for me instead of another business owner.
Then, I could record videos documenting what I'm doing in my own business and sell them to business owners or other offliners.
My first product brought in almost $5,000 in a month! It was a crazy experience because I'd done less work than ever before and made more money for doing less work.
So, then I began to think about it and I realized that there may be other offliners who prefer answering a few questions, bumping a few threads and ranking cpa or affiliate landing pages better than they enjoy working in the trenches with offline clients.
In fact, as my own internet marketing business grows, one of the challenges I'm facing is the growth of my truly passive online marketing income has the potential in the next six to twelve months to surpass my current offline income.
So, what about you?
Would you rather have a $5,000/month offline income stream from five clients or a $5,000/month income stream from 250 buyers buying a internet marketing $19.99 product?
