Beginners: Don't let price hold you back from getting started

Do you want to get started with an online business but don't feel you can afford all the tools you are told you need to run a business?

If you've asked this before, you may have been told things like:
"If you can't invest in your business you aren't being serious enough" or
"You need to have some skin in the game" or
"You need to treat it as a business, not a hobby"


These are all well and good, but what if you really don't have the money to outlay? Things are often hard and coming up with the money to get started is not easy for everyone.

On top of that you need to learn how to set up your website and autoresponder.

Now don't get me wrong; it's possible to use completely free resources to start with, but to do things properly you do need a few things in place. You've heard them before probably:

  • Domain name
  • Hosting
  • Autoresponder
  • Payment processor

Generally the cost for the above items are:

Domain name: $10/year
Hosting: $8/month
Autoresponder: $15/month upwards
Payment processor: Generally no setup cost, unless you use Clickbank. Fees paid as sales come in.

So before you've even started you're looking at $33 first month then $23 ongoing, and that's before you've spent anything on plugins, themes and all the nice add-ons to secure your site.

I've been in the position where I had to cut back all expenses and keep just the essentials. It's not fun, I know.

But unless you can have some kind of web presence, your fledgeling business is doomed before it even gets off the ground.

Thankfully I had a degree of understanding about how to set up my website with the necessary plugins and security. If I didn't it would have taken a lot longer or been more expensive.

So if you are in the same position, I'd like to help.

I am in the fortunate position of having access to many high level page builder plugins, membership site scripts and video players. My license allows me to add them to sites I build or manage for clients, so here's my offer to you:

I will help you get your site up and running so you don't need to worry about the technical parts.

If you want, I will add sales page builders, a membership script, and give you access to a fully featured video marketing suite that will make your videos really pop. Don't worry if you don't do videos yet; you will soon enough.




In addition, I will make sure all your plugins and Wordpress files are updated as soon as updates are released.

I'll install and configure security plugins to vastly reduce the possibility of your new site being hacked and make sure they are kept up to date too.


I'll install and configure an autoresponder in your website to save having to sign up for Aweber or similar.

You can start building your list on your own site then transfer over to an autoresponder company later if you wish, although you may find you want to stay with your self hosted option when you see how easy it is.

So how much is this going to cost?

Well first I must stress that, in order to keep the price as low as possible, I will not be actively involved in running your site. Don't get me wrong, I'll be here if you have questions; I'm a real guy, and very friendly, but I want to keep cost to you at a minimum, which is the whole point of bringing this offer to you today.

It also depends on what you want me to add to your site. I have created different packages for you to choose.

Package 1: You have nothing and need everything.
Includes:
  • Domain registration for 1 year (Value $10)
  • Hosting via my recommended supplier, JVZooHost* (Value $8/month)
  • 1 installation of Wordpress with security plugins configured (Value $50)
  • Regular updates of plugins and core Wordpress files as needed. (Value $20/month)
  • InstaBuilder 2.0 page builder plugin (Value currently $77 for 3 site license)
  • InstaMember membership site script (Value currently $47 for single site license)
  • RapidMailer autoresponder plugin** (Value currently $27 for single site license)
  • Access to my OptimizePlayer account as a 'Team Member'*** (Value $15/month)

Overall value: $254 then $43/month

My price: $50
setup fee ($10 for domain and $8 for first month's hosting included, so initial charge to me will be $32) then $27/month starting 30 days later ($8 to the hosting company, $19 to me)



Package 2
Includes:
  • Domain registration for 1 year (Value $10)
  • Hosting via my recommended supplier, JVZooHost* (Value $8/month)
  • 1 installation of Wordpress with security plugins configured (Value $50)
  • Regular updates of plugins and core Wordpress files as needed. (Value $20/month)
  • InstaBuilder 2.0 page builder plugin (Value currently $77 for 3 site license)
  • Access to my OptimizePlayer account as a 'Team Member'*** (Value $15/month)
Overall value: $180 then $43/month

My Price: $40 setup fee ($18 for domain & hosting, $22 to me), $17/month ($9 to me)



Package 3:
Includes:
  • Domain registration for 1 year (Value $10)
  • Hosting via my recommended supplier, JVZooHost* (Value $8/month)
  • 1 installation of Wordpress with security plugins configured (Value $50)
  • Regular updates of plugins and core Wordpress files as needed. (Value $20/month)

Overall value: $88 then $28/month

My Price: $30 setup fee ($18 domain & hosting, $12 to me), $12/month ($8 for hosting, $4 to me)




* If you use my recommended hosting, I get a small commission which keeps the price down. If you'd rather go elsewhere the prices will be a bit higher, so please ask me for prices.
You will pay the hosting fee directly to JVZoo and the balance of the monthly fee to me.

**RapidMailer plugin allows you to send emails using your hosting company's emailing service. I recommend, however, using a dedicated emailing company which specialises in sending emails. This may incur a small additional monthly charge once you are sending over 12,000 emails per month, but that will be paid to the company you choose, not me. This charge is not included in my fee.

***OptimizePlayer is a fantastic video marketing platform which allows you to customise the look and feel of your video player, as well as add a host of marketing features over the top of your videos at times of your choosing, like surveys, optin forms, buy buttons, html code (like forms or external surveys) and many more.

The current price for the self hosted version (host videos on YouTube or your own S3 account) is $297 per year. I will be selling access to my account as a 'Team Member' separately for $15 per month so if you take package 1 or 2, this is included.

So don't let the cost and hassle of setting up your site stop you getting started. If you need a helping hand for a lot less than it would cost to buy the services separately, plus ongoing updates and discounts on other services, like setting up your membership site pages, click the buy now button of the package that you want.

I look forward to working with you.

All the best,

David Taylor
