Show & Tell

The first thing I would do is realize that people especially newbie’s are being sold to and not being shown how to do what they should be doing to make money today. So, I would write a short report, video, or audio, about making money. It needs to be something that you have actually done. Go into detail about how you did it. Include screen shots, show your screen on video, whatever you need to do to prove that you made money with your strategy.

I know there are a few marketers’ who’s videos that I have seen that show that they are making money, but not showing how they are truly making money. I would make your content geared toward the newbie’s , and to educate them on what-ever it is that you are selling. I would also research every benefit that will benefit them and make it clear in your content.
Then I would set about marketing your website on forums.

Here is how to make money from Warrior

A. Get a domain name $5
B. Secure hosting $5.00
C. Get graphics made for the report and website $5-10 Fiverr
D. Create a sales letter
E. Place your product on Warrior plus

F. Create an attention grabbing signature
G. Give your report away in the War Room
H. Post to the forum
I. Post on forum blogs

Once you start making money you can up the ante by getting banner ads, and creating WSO’s.

You forgot the cost to advertise

@ Ernest Spencer, nope didn't forget about the advertising, read the last sentence.
@aizaku, you could do all that stuff, but if you go to warrior plus, you will have a ton of affiliates that an help promote your offer. That is the one thing that I forgot.

It is important when you try to enlist affiliates to sell your prooduct that you give them a great incentive; like 50,70,75% commissions.

Well, the people who make the big money are the top dogs, the ones who run the massive affiliate sites, or at least have a popular product where affiliates are doing the trench work for you. Some people choose to aim for the top right out of the starting gates. Do you have programming skills? Can you create a main hub of affiliate activity (i.e. clickbank, or an affiliate listing service). If you can make yourself the bottleneck that people have to go through you can get very rich (i.e. zuckerberg, gates, jobs).

Hi R,

Good ideas to get the ball rolling.

I'd say to do 2 distinct things: follow your fun and hit the pain points of your perfect customer.

Example

I love blogging. I love traveling. I have fun blogging and traveling so I created my blog.

When I create an SEO-optimized, long form blog post I think about all the blogging problems/struggles/pain points my readers face.

So when folks read these blog posts they say:

"Hey, this guy helped me out, for free. Let me join his email list. Or, let me bookmark his blog."

Maybe these folks buy one of my eBooks today. Maybe tomorrow. Maybe 5 months from now. In any case, I'm helping them and making money online.

Maybe they hire me to coach them on their blog, or maybe they promote me, or endorse me. All these actions either lead to profits or are direct profit builders. I'm helping folks, having fun, and making money online.

The biggest issue: what happens when you don't make money online, in the beginning?

This is where you need to ensure you're following your fun. Because having fun - not the money, because it's not there yet - will be the reward. You'll enjoy learning about and blogging about your niche so you won't need money. Then as you proceed, you'll naturally create the thorough content and build connections with leaders which set the table for list building, which leads to the money.

1 hour ago I spotted royalty payments through Amazon in my hotmail inbox. From all the Amazon sites around the world. US, UK, Japan, Germany, etc.

How did I make that money? By helping people through a variety of online platforms, like blogging, and by writing eBooks and through social media and through blog commenting and guest posting.

The help in the eBooks yields the money. Not the eBooks themselves, nor does Amazon yield the profits. The channels are shells, conduits. The money is in the help, and in the joy you're experiencing offering the help, to assist your readers/clients/customers in addressing their pain points.

The channels are just channels. The money flowed to me through the fun I had (which detached me some from money/traffic/blogging outcomes), through the learning I did, through the help/value I shared and through the volume and quality of connections I built with successful bloggers.

Hope this helps a bit guys, to build your online campaign on solid ground.

Happy prospering.

yeah I have found is make sure you have a product this is proven to convert. Something that is selling now. Send quality traffic and adjust your campaigns to convert that traffic.

Create sales funnel with low ticket offer in the front and high ticket on the back end. Get people to sell it for you :-)

Find out what people want to buy and sell it to them.

The rest is just bells and whistles.

Always provide a tonne of value. So many people out there beat around the bush and end up offering a highly priced worthless product. Build a business that offers extreme value to its clients.

One more thing I would like to add to your list is Freelancing. In my own personal experience it's an excellent source out there to try out new things under one platform.To target high paying jobs you will develop an urge to upgrade your skills which in a long run will sparkle up your profile.Apart from that it's FLEXIBLE. Your set your own time and schedule throughout your ordeal with this source which I think every 9-5 lad out there craves for.

my biggest tip is:


if you don't separate yourself from the crowd, you need to....

TEACHING ONLINE & sell service are my options. I do both for now from home.

What about - to sell on eBay, to propose a web design, to start some educational and mentoring programs, to become an affiliate, a drop shipper, a virtual assistant?

This pretty much encompasses it all. Selling Products..a Good or Service

Join an affiliate system with multiple upsells/downsells and high ticket offers on the backend.

Then just keeping slamming traffic at it while building your list and watch the conversions sale in :-).

Paid traffic is perfect as the cost is returned and you profit, all from the upsells and highticket offers.

Find sites with their own traffic, like Fiverr, or Graphicriver, Creative Market, to name a few, that way the hardest part is taken care of.

Stay away from methods that require you to get traffic at first...Because it will take too long before you start making money.

Start with Freelancing or Kindle publishing, or Amazon FBA (require more money upfront though). Amazon brings the traffic for you...People underestimate how hard it is to get traffic

Then when you make a few grands per month, you can think about affiliate marketing and blogging.

This is why 99% of people fail. They start with the wrong system. The truth is all the systems out there work, but they are not created equals...Some are easier.
