Continuity in your business?

11 replies
Hey Warriors

Been a while since I posted so just spending a little time reading some posts.

I always shared a lot here at the beginning of my online business so I wanted to post something that should help many people.

The one thing that took me from doing 'ok' online to making a lot of money was introducing continuity into my online business.

There's one other MAJOR element which I will discuss in a moment but first let me touch on the continuity aspect of things.

I always advise trying to see how you can introduce some form of continuity into your income.

If you're not at the stage of creating your own products then you can still bring in continuity income as an affiliate.

The reason this is so important for you is for growth of your online business

Put it this way... If you knew you had $2,000 every month coming into your account due to continuity income would you feel a lot more secure?

I'm sure you would, and you should!

Compare that to HAVING to sell lots more products every month to try and make that same $2,000 - maybe one month you might only make $1,000

Not so secure right?

Let's say one of your goals was to quit your day job, and you currently earned $3,000 per month at that job

You have commitments - house, bills, family etc...

Would you feel safe quitting your job without continuity income?

Not too sure I would... So how can you do it?

Look at what you know that you can share with others in a membership format. This doesn't always mean creating some amazing looking membership site.

You could have a membership that is purely delivered via email - say on a weekly basis.

How simple is that? You sell your membership and have each customer just join an email list

Think outside the box a little and you'll have some great ideas I'm sure!


Consider pricing - Higher priced like $97 per month, or low priced like $9.95 per month ?

The beauty of this as well, you can get started with only month 1 of content! Then just get more done once its selling!


With that said let me share the other critical element that made my online business grow so quick...

Becoming FUNNEL FOCUSED!

What I mean by this is creating my own sales process / funnel with an affiliate program to have others send me the traffic!

That is a dream believe me, the power of it being I made over $600,000 last year alone from one site and funnel!

A funnel can be as small as a Squeeze page - Thankyou page with offer - Download page

It's powerful... just get traffic to the entry point which is the squeeze page!

Anyway this is getting long so I wont keep going lol... Hope there's some gems in there for some people

These 2 elements literally changed my life - took plenty of work and action but all worth it :-)

Best wishes

Dean

    Wow Dean my man...

    This was TOP NOTCH.

    Even though it is from last year's I still think it is applicable today.

    The only thing I would be a bit concerned is about Google absolutely hating one-page sites but I think that's easily avoidable with Solo Ads, Swaps and other ways of traffic so it can still be viable.

    I'm going to try this one out because honestly, what's there to lose a $10 usd domain that I can flip later if this doesn't works out? I'm game for that!

    Thanks man, really appreciate this.

    This is very timely...

    I was actually looking to start my first continuity/membership product, one that I would deliver weekly via email. I currently ironing out how much I would charge.

    But it would be actionable advice with the option of more personal contact than regular subscribers.

    This has help provide some food for thought.

    Thanks...

    (If anyone else has advice, do share)

    Any tips on selling continuity. I know it's harder, people resist the idea of monthly even a small ammount. It's a bigger mental leap than a one off product.
