Revenue Tools

One of the best ways to learn how to do something is to watch someone doing it. Better yet, watch and have them explain how they did it.

In making a living online, it’s the same thing. If you can find someone running a successful site that will share their strategies and show you what they did, you’re more likely to achieve the goals you’ve set for yourself. With a successful guide or example, you can apply those same strategies to your own sites with more confidence. Just like following a blueprint. You may even be more successful that the example you used!

What’s the flat out best, most profitable and long term method of earning a living online? There are many good ways to generate revenue online, although in my opinion, nothing beats the benefits of having your own product.

Rumors are circulating about the reported death of organic SEO, and in my opinion, they’re true.

You see, instead of optimizing, submitting, re-optimizing, tweaking and building pages like we’ve all done in the past, we have new technologies that can get us near instant top search engine rankings.

How?

Have you heard about the fellow from Florida that was living with his mom in a tiny bedroom, sleeping all day and staying up to all hours of the night searching for a way to make a living on the internet? (this may sound familiar to some of you)

The weird part is that in his search, he even tried to raise dairy goats and ended up losing it all, watching g-men come to repossess the goats and still get stuck with the bills.

Now, just a little over a year later, he’s doing 7 figures online, without spending a dime on advertising.

Is it hype?

The reason why I’m writing about this is because what Mike is doing here is different and can help you, especially if you’ve been struggling to get going online. His goal is to get anyone that is interested to replace their full time income in as little as 12 weeks by going through his program.

I receive dozens and dozens of emails every month and the theme is the same. ‘I’m struggling to make some money online and confused with all the email offers I get every day!’

And you’re right, it can be confusing.

You see, there are a lot of programs in the internet marketing field that focus on specific income generating techniques or strategies, which are great if you’re already up and running online and know your way around. And they can be great addition to your online marketing arsenal.

But the BOA Method is different. Mike’s put together a complete strategy and tools to get you going, especially if you’ve been frustrated and spinning your wheels online.

Did you know just 4% of online marketers make more than $500 a month? And 44% have never earned more than $100, even in their best month? Those numbers surprised me.

Grab Mike’s now infamous PETE report to learn more and find out how you can finally get over the hump and get rolling.

And here’s what I really like about what Mike’s doing. He offers not only the tools, a complete 10 step blueprint as well as one of the most important aspects to any business (or anything in life for that matter) … your mindset. Mike teamed up with Lisa Diane, a leader in personal development and brings what no other program can offer you, all the components necessary to succeed online.

One of the other reasons that some get stuck is the technology. Let’s face it, not all of us are technically inclined to figure out how to setup up autoresponders, blogs, themes, plugins… all the details that are essential in running a business online. Again, here is where what Mike’s doing is different. He has what he calls ‘the magic button’. It basically gets your blog setup automatically, with everything you need to get started up and running, literally with a touch of a button. Now there are automatic blog installers out there, but this one is different. It not only sets up the blog, but also the theme and everything you’ll need as well. Not something I’ve found online before and a huge benefit to you.

Mike also concentrates on an essential key, getting traffic. He includes a three part strategy of tools and a special community that help each other get more traffic to their sites. All with little of no work on your part.

Take a minute to check it out and grab Mike’s free report, it could make the difference you’ve been looking for.

It’s also a great example of how to launch a product. Read it over and see how it was done…it’s a lesson in itself.

One of the less productive ways to spend your time in your online business is manually fulfilling product orders. If you sell information, music or digital products, making copies of your CD, DVD or books, labeling them, packaging them and driving to the post office to drop them off is often quite time consuming. Doing this really isn’t the best use of your time.

I recently ran across a tool that will take care of the entire process for you - automate your CD and DVD fulfillment, at about $1.60 for each CD/DVD as of this writing. I know, I was surprised myself as well.

You see, it’s a script that integrates your order page with a web site service that fulfills your orders. Basically, this script will:

• create an order page for you with your CD/DVD products
• collects your client order and shipping information
• collects the payment through PayPal to your account
• sends your client a receipt
• sends you an order notice
• sends the order to the fulfillment service to burn, package and ship your client order, normally within 24 hours

and all this is done automatically. No intervention necessary. Just link to your generated order page and you’re set.

It automatically interfaces using XML with the fulfillment center at Kunaki.com. You can use Kunaki manually, but that would mean entering each order by hand, processing them one by one. And if you decided to list your product at their marketplace (among everyone elses), you would have to wait to receive your monthly payment from them and you can only sell one CD or DVD on a page making it difficult for your clients if you offer more than one or bundles.

The script can sell individual products, or multiple products from the same page, your choice. Your client pays the shipping and handling and gets your products faster, which will normally result in happier clients.

And no worries on setting it up, there is a complete video installation guide included that walks you through step by step.

It’s certainly a better use of your time to work on creating more projects, spending time with your family and friends or doing anything you want… rather than copying, packing, labeling and driving to the post office every day.

Check out the CD DVD Automator Script and see if it can’t save you time and money in your online business.

To your best success!

And if you don’t have your own information product on CD or DVD, no worries, get started now. Having their own product is one of the things most successful online marketers have in common. Check out my recent post about how you could have your own product in six weeks or less working just 30 minutes a day (much faster if you have more time).

Believe me, I’m not a slacker and I don’t shun hard work. (I’ve done my share of sleepless nights cranking out projects!)

It just comes down to this. If you can earn more money working less, working smarter, why spend hours, days, weeks or months slaving away for much less?

I’ve just had the pleasure of going through Project Quick Cash, a project that has taken quite a few affiliate marketers by surprise (including myself). Maybe you’ve heard about the almost 2,000 visitors Jonathan Leger got to a brand new site in less than 3 weeks using these techniques. Or the $13,150 Alok Jain earned for 2 hours of work, or the $585.50 he earned in one day for 20 minutes of work.

This all came from 5 techniques that even most seasoned marketers hadn’t heard about and I almost guarantee you haven’t heard of most of them presented this way either (especially the Breaking and Entering technique on page 80, Super Targeting on page 48 and Cashing the Spike #2 on page 24). They often take less than an hour to implement, don’t require any technical or HTML skills, and all are no or low cost to implement. And better yet, they generate affiliate commissions fast, often in minutes.

Check out this video for more:

Not everyone will be able to attain 5 figure returns from some of these techniques since we all have different abilities, although they can return a significant amount of extra income if implemented.

Overall, it’s a real pleasure to see something come out that’s different that what you see everywhere else, is well written, and most importantly really works.

There are basically two ways of earning money online.

First, you can trade your time for money. If you’re working by the hour or on salary, then you are trading your time for a paycheck. This is how most folks make money, by working for others by the hour. Although this seems like a dependable and ’secure’ income, it puts a cap on how much you can earn. There are only so many hours in a day you can work. And the income is never really secure, your employer can decide at any time to let you go.

Second, you can trade products or information for money. This usually involves buying rights to a product or creating your own information product. This method gives you unlimited income potential, you can create something once and continue to get paid, possibly for a lifetime (at least the lifetime of the product).

If you look at most of the top earning marketers online, what do they have in common? Most, if not all, have at least one or more products of their own.

If you don’t have a product you can sell, or don’t know how to get started, Marlon Sanders has introduced a resource that walks you through creating an information product, step by step, called Info-Product Dashboard.

Marlon’s created something I haven’t found before, a complete blueprint of how to create an information product, an ebook, CD, DVD, audio program… any type of information product in 6 weeks or less. The way Marlon designed it is that you take an action each day, normally around 20-30 minutes, by following his dashboard of steps. He uses easy to follow outlines, screen captures, and video where needed and makes this dead-easy simple.

If you don’t have any of the software tools he recommends, no worries, there are also free alternatives he provides as well. If you don’t have any specific knowledge on a topic to write about, he has a solution. As Marlon puts it, he wants to remove all obstacles that may prevent you from creating your own information product. And I believe he’s accomplished that and more.

If you follow the steps as he’s outlined, you’ll have an information product of your own before you know it. It doesn’t need to take 6 weeks to do it either. Depending on how much time you have available, you can be done in a week or just a few days.

Many times when you mention creating a product it sounds like a huge project and we often feel overwhelmed. Where do I start? What to do next? How do I do that? One of the things I like best about Marlon’s Info-Product Dashboard is that it breaks up the process into a step by step blueprint that’s easy to follow. Six steps a week, follow the dotted lines. As Marlon says, how do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time! And that’s how you create an information product of your own, one step at a time.

If you’re ready to start trading information for dollars rather than your time, and take the cap off your income, I highly recommend Info-Product Dashboard. Marlon’s mission is to help others break through any limitations and obstacles in being able to create their own products. I’ve been using his products since Marlon started online and like his other information marketing products, the Info-Product Dashboard is no different, TOP NOTCH!

To your best success!

Mark

P.S. You may be saying hold on, there are other ways to make money online! Yes, there is a third option that includes affiliate marketing and related strategies. These also normally fall under trading information for money since your income isn’t tied to how much time you work, but to the results of your (often) one time marketing efforts.

It’s not that often that I get -really- excited about a new product in the internet marketing field. I’m passionate about all of it, but once in a while something comes along that stands out.

You see, there isn’t much online that doesn’t take some time to get results. There are even fewer opportunities where you don’t have to sell anything. Fewer where you don’t have to exclusively write or acquire content. Fewer that don’t rely on search engine optimization (SEO). And even fewer that are not dependent on affiliate marketing or product selling.

To get a better idea of what I’m talking about here, check out this video that was available before the product launch, but is no longer on the website. You can see it here:

Traffic Broker Video

Basically, what this involves is buying and selling traffic, and pocketing the difference. Some call it brokering, others arbitrage. After going through the guide, I call it profitable. You’re giving people what they are looking for and getting paid well for it.

I’ve already gone through the 91 page guide several times since picking it up on launch day and put some test accounts in place. The nice thing about the way Alex, the author, has designed it is that you can start with just $5 a day and start doubling your profits every day.

Plus, you can see the results in hours, not weeks or months.

I can’t say this for many online endeavors, but this is really exciting. There are untouched niches to explore and lots of profit available. You can test small and grow as quickly as you like. And as Alex does, you don’t need to spend more than a few hours getting it set up. Once it’s running it’s basically on autopilot. Just tweak it when needed. This is exactly what working from home profitably is meant to be. Set something up once and let it continue earning passive income while you enjoy your life.

Alex had reached $600 a day in profit before writing this guide and will continue to grow his projects and report on the progress with you. He also includes templates along with a guide to PPC as well if you’re new to buying traffic.

Regardless of your interest level, check this out.  It’s a learning experience just reading about it and you’ll walk away with ideas you can apply to your business and perhaps a new perspective. And as with many new products, the price often goes up soon after launch so you may save by checking it out now:

Google Payload

Alex had written a guide on Google arbitrage earlier this year and one of his customers contacted him to share his experience (and let Alex know the critical things he was missing). This fellow from South America was churning out $10,000 a day and wanted
Alex to write how he did it. I’m glad he did.  Perhaps you will too.

For years it seemed that I couldn’t live without my trusty fax machine.

Today, I wondered why I even need it.

You see, although having the capability to fax is still quite important, needing a fax machine that takes up space on my desk isn’t.

Instead of that bulky fax machine, some time ago I replaced it with an online fax to email service. The service I use allows me to create a fax from any application that can print on my computer, so instead of printing directly to my printer, I print it to my fax application where I can add a cover sheet if I prefer, modify the document and select who I’m sending it to.

When I receive a fax, it arrives in my email as a PDF file (or EFX if I prefer) . This is quite convenient since I can get a fax anywhere I check my email, regardless of where I am. I can also modify the faxes I receive and send them off to someone else using the fax software that comes with my service. I can add text, graphics, stamps, or my signature.

My faxes are also stored online and available in my control panel along with a log of all faxes sent and received. I can also send a fax directly from the web site if I wanted to.

The biggest obstacle for most in switching to an online fax to email service is how to send a document they already have that’s not on their computer. Now with USB scanners under $100 it makes it much easier. Just scan the document using the included fax or email option in most popular scanners and it’s ready to be faxed just like any other document you print from your computer.

Email fax services aren’t created equal, most have different plans including the amount of fax pages (sent and received) that are included each month, whether or not you can send a fax from any application on your computer or if you attach a document to your email, toll free or local numbers and the cost of extra pages over your monthly quota.

To flush out the facts, I’ve put up an email fax service comparison chart. Depending on your needs, you can quickly determine what features are important to you and review the services available.

Hope this helps and all the best for your success!
