[Guide] Creating Your First Successful Website

One of the best ways to make great money online is with email marketing and affiliate marketing. There is in fact, a way that you can merge both of these together and start making a huge amount of sales. The first step is finding a profitable niche and affiliate products related to your niche to promote. The second step is creating a website that highlights your niche and draws in visitors. The third step is to gain traffic using several free and paid methods.

1. Finding Niche and Affiliate Programs


The first step is to find a niche in which you can profit from and affiliate programs to start earning money. You can try heading over to Magazines just to start familiarizing yourself with all the different topics. If you already have a niche in mind, search "(your niche) affiliate programs" and spend some time choosing the ones that appeal to you the most. If you don't have a specific niche,then one of the fastest ways to find a niche is within affiliate programs themselves. I recommend you join Clickbank as it is one of the largest affiliate marketplaces out there. Sign up and click "marketplace" here you will be taken to all the affiliate products; filter results by "gravity" which shows which products are making the most sales and choose a product with a low initial sale to high average sale ratio(this means the customers continued to spend on the product after the initial payment). Another great affiliate service is Digiresults. This site works basically the same as Clickbank with the only difference that you have to apply first to market a product.

Now that you've got your niche and affiliate tools, its time to create your website!


2. Creating Your Website

First, start by purchasing a domain; I recommend Godaddy(choose a domain name relevant to your niche and remember that .info is much cheaper than.com) and set it up with a hosting company; I would recommend Hostgator (Click here for many Hostgator discount codes). Choose the "baby" plan for Hostgator as it hosts unlimited domains or choose "hatchling" if you want to stick with just one domain(I recommend baby as creating more websites really helps expand your business and increase profits). Make sure to change your nameservers so Godaddy knows your website is hosted by Hostgator (Click here for how to change your nameservers). your two nameservers will be provided by Hostgator once you've made your payment. After you've set up your nameservers, wait a few hours for your website to recognize Hostgator (you will know this when you enter your Url and Hostgator's panel appears). To sign into your website type "(your domain).com/cpanel". (you are provided with lots of passwords in the process of making a website so make sure to store them).

Now you have to create 3 pages on your site, the squeeze page (which will be the page visitors see when they visit your website, typically promoting your product), the confirmation page (the page in which you ask your subscribers to confirm their email and thank them for signing up), and the download page(Here is where they download your product which I recommend to be a free offer). First, begin to customize your pages; id recommend installing WordPress on your site as it offers many customization templates(Click here for how to install wordpress). I would also mention some exceptional, but paid services, to customize your squeeze pages are Lead Pages and Optimize Press. One thing you can do to begin designing your site is to use Fiverr, a website where people will do just about anything for only 5$; you can search people to create banners for your site or just design them yourself if you have the knowledge.

You're squeeze page should pop out and have a professional look to convert more visitors into subscribers; one recommendation is to create a large sub-header with a promotional message, then include bullet points detailing why and how your product can do what was stated in the sub-header, then include a call to action(one example is "I could be taking this down in the next few days so order now") . Click here to learn about the different types of squeeze page designs and why they work and here to learn how to make a great squeeze page. The confirmation page should be a simple thank you to your visitors for subscribing and asking them to check their email to confirm. For the download page, offer a free gift related to your niche. To upload files to wordpress just go to the "media" tab and select upload(you will get a unique URL for your file). a great website for free ebooks with resale rights is Seymour Products, but I would recommend using Odesk or Elance for some high converting PLR content(this will cost some money), or you can just offer a product of your own. To add a nice looking download button, paste this code on your page(replace with your own url's): " <a href="url of your ebook(this will be dispayed when you upload the file on the media tab) e.g http://yourwebsite/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/19_your_ebook.pdf><img src="where you placed the image in your website e.g. /img/downloadbutton.jpg" alt="downloadbutton"></a>".

After creating your pages, set the squeeze page as the front page(Click on "Settings => reading" then check "a static page" and selct your squeeze page). Also change your permalinks for better SEO by going to "Settings => Permalinks" and check the option "post name" (this will change your page URL to your page name). Now its time to get an autoresponder; I would recommend Aweber or Getresponse (these services are for building your list of subscribers and creating follow up messages to promote future products; I personally use Aweber). Create your list with your email address, name, and name of your list(name it something relevant to your website). Create an Opt-in form on any of these services (this is where your visitors sign up) and link it to your confirmation page url (to add the Opt in form on your website, select "create sign up form" in Aweber/Getresponse, personalize your Opt in box, select "custom thank you page" and enter your confirmation page URL; in the final step, copy the raw HTML code, then go to "pages" on WordPress, click "edit" on squeeze page, hover down to "Opt-in Options", check "activate Opt in" and copy the HTML code in the "autoresponder" section); after this, choose "list settings" in your autoresponder and select "confirmed Opt in". customize your confirmation message and copy your download page in the "success page"box, where they will be sent to after they confirm their email address and you're good to go!

In your autoresponder there is an option to create "follow-up messages" (these are messages that will be delivered periodically promoting your products to your subscribers). Include a good subject line to make sure it gets opened and try to set a feeling of trust and friendship with your subscribers. You can either choose to give valuable information and then promote your affiliate product at the end, or talk about your affiliate product that you will recommend in that email and why they should purchase it. Try to keep your subscribers engaged so that they expect another email from you soon. Click here to learn how to make great follow up messages.

Some useful advice after gaining significant subscribers is to make a separate list called a "buyers list" in which you will include all the people who have bought from you and the current list will be known as the "freebie" list. What this does is you can use monetization techniques and cpa offers to convert a freebie into a buyer, while you promote recommended products to the buyers list as they will be more responsive to buy.

Now that your webpage is up and running, you need to take ownership of the site in the large search engine's. Visit, Google Webmaster's, Bing Webmaster's, and Pinterest Site Verification to get your website verified and improve it's visibility(these sites explain how to verify). I would also recommend to submit your website to various search engines using these free tools: Submit Express and Entireweb.

Gaining Traffic

Forum Marketing

Now there are many methods of getting more traffic: one of them is by forum marketing. What this is is you find a forum relevant to your niche(try searching "(your niche) forums") and actively participate in them. Every time you post on the forum, your signature(which you can include your links in) will be displayed and be viewable to all members. Some members may be enticed to click on your links and thus you gain more traffic(make sure to post quality posts and not spam).

Reddit

Reddit is a very powerful website to gain traffic to your site. It is divided into many sub-reddits, each with its own topic. What you need to do is find a sub-reddit relevant to your niche. After doing this, participate in the forum and let your account age for a few days in order to prevent your website post to be marked as spam. After you've waited a few days, click "submit link" and enter your website, then make sure to write a catchy title that will attract redditors to click on your link.

Solo Ads

The next traffic method is solo ads. What you do is you buy a specific number of clicks from a seller(example: 100) and create an email swipe, which is a message with a subject line and a body promoting your site( Click here for information on making a great email swipe). After this, the seller will promote your email to their list and provide you with the clicks. A great site for solo ads is Udimi. Make sure to spend some time researching the sellers and find one that delivers what he promises or even overdelivers; also one who has a responsive list, because you don't just want clicks, you want subscribers and sales.

Facebook, PPC, and Fiverr

Another great form of increasing traffic is using Facebook ads. A good idea is to make a Facebook fanpage of your site and start promoting it (Click here to learn how to get more likes to your fanpage). After this you can start creating your ads. Click on "create ad" and there will be many categories (clicks to your website, boost your posts, promote your page, etc) you want to click on "clicks to your website". Now its time to select your audience. Try to really narrow down your targeted audience; more is not better, you want to target a specific audience that is interested in your product(under "behaviors" you can choose people who have made online payments before). Now you have to make a bid for how much you pay for each click(the ad manager will automatically show a suggested bid). Now its time to choose an image and create your message that will really attract clicks(Click here to learn how to make great ads). One of the best PPC's (pay-per-click) is Google adsense, just set up your ad and your click price and you're good to go (this may be costly at times and you have to get approved first); other great PPC's are Bidvertiser, Media.net, and Chitika. Once again, you can also use the service Fiverr to promote your site. Try to look for services that will tweet or post your website in popular pages, write guest blogs on sites about your site, will post your site on popular social media sites etc. Make sure to also spend time researching these gigs and finding one that may work for you and your niche(do not pay for traffic towards your site, as these are useless clicks that will not convert into sales or subscribers).

Writing articles

Writing articles can also be a great way to get recognition for your website or product. I recommend Hubpages and Ezinearticles. If you are not skilled in writing articles or don't have the time, you can hire very cheap writers that will create quality articles at IWriter (as always, spend some time looking through the writers and try to go for the higher ranked writers).

SEO

SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is one of the foundational methods to get more traffic as it increases your page rank on search engines like Google so that your site becomes better known. To learn how to increase your page rank i recommend a great website called, Source Wave which includes great training videos on SEO, backlinks, and more and it is completely free.

Video Marketing

Video marketing is also a great way to promote your products. Start by posting quality content on your niche, promoting your YouTube site and gaining a steady fanbase. If making your own videos is not for you, you can always make a review YouTube channel and post many different videos of people reviewing your product.To download the review YouTube videos, simply type an "ss" before "YouTube" in the URL box, then download it there, upload to YouTube, add your affiliate link in the description (use Bit.ly to cloak it) and publish to YouTube (making your own original content is far more likely to gain many views).

Ad Swaps

After you've gained momentum and have a few hundred subscribers to your list, it's time to take the next big step in gaining traffic by ad swaps. What you do is you find someone with a similar list size and niche as yours and swap promotional messages; you promote their website to your list of subscribers and they promote yours, hence the swap. This is a great way to earn thousand of new subscribers with an interest in your niche. One of the best websites for this is Safe Swaps (be wary this is a paid website).

Conclusion

This guide is a basic way of setting up your first website and promoting it. Be sure to look up more information and not only expand your knowledge, but put in the effort to make it work through trial and error which is crucial to becoming successful in internet marketing. Be sure to post any other advice that I may have missed and I wish the best success on you and your web business! 

Internet Marketing is overwhelming...

The truth is there are many techniques out there and they all work. However, they are not all created equals.

For example, I would not recommend a newbie to start with Affiliate marketing. Why? Because you have to get a lot of traffic, then you have to build a relationship with that traffic, then you have to convert that traffic...It takes a lot of time and effort. When you are just starting out you want to make money quickly to gain momentum.

Same thing with blogging. Lot's of people start blogs thinking they will make money quickly. It takes TIME. A lot of it.

This is why I'm glad I started with Kindle publishing. Amazon literally brings the traffic for you so you can make money really quickly and it is not expensive to get started. You can also build a back-end, build a list and do affiliate marketing (with amazon bringing the traffic for you...isn't that a smarter strategy?)

Amazon FBA is also really good, but you need more money to get started (at least $1000) and is a little bit more complicated.

The bottom line is choose your method wisely, then focus on it until you master it and you will succeed.

Oh, and try not to pay too much attention to people that are negative on this form. Internet marketing is hard and some people with thousands of posts became really mad over the years because they didn't make it. Hang out with successful people and ignore the noise.

That's the key to success in this business. Welcome on board.

I hate the Law of Attraction. And I give up on it.

really really want to believe in the Law of Attraction. And I do. Things have come into my life strangely, maybe even miraculously, or coincidently. I've manifested some material things, and failed to manifest relationship things.

I've spent a year, about half of it doing Visualizations and Affirmations. Experimenting with just visualizations. Experimenting with just affirmations, and here are some things I've come to learn.

Visualizing something happening, an item, or money, most likely will show up in your life. Wether or not you will possess it, I am not sure. I do not know the factors that bring things to you, I just know that sometimes it just happens.

Affirming something happening, or having it, I just know that sometimes it just happens.

I've experimented with different beliefs. I've tried to built great auras of positivity and light, and confidence, through repetition of affirmations daily. There were times where I feel, I've attracted people and circumstances in my life, and there are times where I feel that I've repelled them.

Here I am now, in a situation where, I am giving up. Wether it be by visualization, or affirmation, it has come to my attention that solidified thoughts are not much more bringing people into my life, as they are repelling. I've tried many different thought forms, and experiments in the other world of thought. I've tried to live my life by the spiritual and metaphysical principles. Giving thanks, hours of meditation, affirmations, visualizations, music, etc.

I'm at a point, where I just ******* Give up. This isn't the first time I've been here, maybe it won't be the last.

One thing I noticed, is when I do certain visualizations, or even affirmations, there becomes a strong, energetic barrier between me and other people. I don't expect anyone here to understand it, nor do I expect it to be explained. I've asked for guidance and explanation from others and received nothing. I don't think people have really had the time like I have had, to really delve 210% into this mode of living. I've given it my everything for the past 12 months.

While I can say, mysterious and unexplainable things happen, the cost of obtaining these things is an unspoken invisible energy field or barrier that brings me grief. It seems to repell people. It seems to work against me at times. It seems to make me feel stifled, trapped, and void of free thinking.

This can come from, about doing 2 days of the same visualization. No one here has any explanation for it. My mind will be clear, and vibrant, yet if I go into this "Visualization." it seems to cut off my connection to source, and others. People feel repelled rather than welcomed, and there you have it. A moment of confidence, talk, and happiness, switched over to repelling of people.

This happened so much, that I decided I would just rely than on affirmations. If my visualizations were creating an invisible, energetic barrier field that seems to drain my energy and repell people, perhaps affirmations would yield different results. But I have found it to be no different.

The only difference is that, affirmations took longer to solidify. I could think of a peice of Cheese for 2 days and it may show up. Or I could say "I have a peice of cheese" and in 2 weeks it would start to materialize. Visualization usually built this energy barrier after 2 days of doing it. Affirmations took about 2 weeks. The results were the same.

I would surely feel a change in the universe, sometimes good, sometimes moderate, but if done exstensively, for instance, a visualization daily for 5-20 minutes; or affirmations done daily, for about 2 weeks; the results were the same.

An energetic barrier that leaves me strangely socially dysfunctional, repelling of people, and a general unpleasant demeanor and existence.

Affirm my way out of it? Tried. The energy is still there. Sometimes, when affirmations were said daily, for 2 weeks, I would feel this slight tension begin to build up wherever I went. For instance, the affirmation, "I have $______ thousand dollars, can go anywhere, and do anything." repeated for 2 weeks, this feeling inside me, I would begin to feel tension.

After consorting with various forums, some would say, "You are in charge of your own feelings, only you can change them." - Which is true. I am in charge of my own feelings. HOWEVER, when one thing is focused on for so long that it begins to create some weird, unbearable force that no longer feels good, than what is there to say? Where are the explanations?

In some ways, I feel I sort of damaged a few of my personal relationships doing this. By creating these energetic barriers, (Simply by visualizing life how I want, or affirming it..) - It seems it has pushed people away. Why would this happen, given I was visualizing happy things, or money, or spending money, or being at certain jobs? i couldn't explain it to you. I have no explanation for it. I've tried visualizing with music very carefully, and while it does seem to put a "Positive energy" in the air, after about 4-5 days what happens is, I feel completely stiff, as if I am stiffened to some universal paradox, some forcefield of energy that I've create for myself.

I am tired of the anxiousness, and the anxiety. I miss sitting there in public, my mind able to drift and not worry about everything going on around me. That only came with no affirmations, no visualizations. Just me as a person, on this planet, given my hands and feet, and my inner ambitions and the willingness to work towards them.

Even simple things like going to the grocery store, or certain places of business become a daunting, energy draining task when in this strange "vortex" of energy, that visualization puts you in. And without any explanation, guidance, or understanding, I can only abandoned these principles as folly. Yes the energy field is there. Yes there are unexplainable things going on when thoughts are projected and, things can come to you, returned. But I am tired of living in this imaginary world.

Living in this world, where your energy repells all other energy. Where it seems that you filter things out, and the other world. Where it seems that you cannot connect with other human beings because your brain is so bent on forcing a certain reality that came from.....?

If we are creators, why does it hurt to create and project that reality onto the real world? Why does my spirit flow with society as it once did? Why is it so hard to flow at all? Where does this unexplained, rediculous anxiousness come from ?

I always used to think that we had to built up to get to certain levels in things, be it anything in life. Wealth, social skill, athletics, etc. Law of attraction changed that for me. Made me feel like, certain things aren't as hard as they seem when we can use the law to our advantage. But so far, all I have been doing is, seemingly attracting small things here and there and creating an enviornment of anxiety and anxiousness, through this weird invisible force.

I asked for answers several times, as the affirmations and meditation no longer gave me answers as to why this happened. I can only trust my own intuitiveness and ask myself, do I want to continue to live in a "Fantasy world" where seemingly, regardless of how much visualization or affirmations I do, the energy is just coming back in a negative way? ... Here's one more scenario.

I can get into my car, and drive in traffic. I can think about things, or drive along the road, cars will pass me, i'll be at a stoplight, and think nothing of it, waiting to continue to the next road.

Yet, if I do affirmations on something specific, for 2 weeks, or even begin to do visualizations for a week straight, I can't just "Drive" through traffic anymore. Instead I feel the energy of every single car, and everyones emotion gleaming off the back of my neck. It's as if energy is being met and repelled or connected, and its uncomfortable. Soon I can't even think for myself as all I can feel is the energy of everyone around me. I'm no longer energetically "anonymous".

It isn't "Just me" because when I rid of all these techniques like affirmations, or visualizations, it seems the air clears. I can think logically again.I can be inspired to do something or take action. I'm no longer on a "one track mind."

I really really want to believe in this stuff, and that it can change my life for the better. But unfortunately, all it has done is just turn me into a closet case. I can't rely on this to bring me more opportunity, or put me in some weird, different, energetic field. I give up on it, because it seems to be doing more harm than good. I know that this LOA is real, unfortunately it just seems to be creating too much negative energy around and within me to be enjoyed anymore.

I shall go back to the real world, where skill, knowledge, experience, dedication, certification, culture, and sacrafice are the tools to reap ones rewards. Too long have I relied on mysticism to give me my answers only to be let down greatly after a year of strict faith and practice.

I wish you all luck in your searches for truth.

10 Ways Network Marketers Can Use Resell Right Products to Generate Leads and Sales

The resell right product marketplace is a cornucopia of marketing knowledge and tools that can benefit anyone selling products and services online or offline for that matter. Direct sellers, affiliate marketers, eBay entrepreneurs and network marketers can all benefit tremendously from these products. However, my specific intent as the title of this article suggests is to focus on how network marketers can benefit from resell right products. My reason for this is due to the fact that there is a high degree of dysfunctional training prevalent in the network marketing industry which contributes to an appallingly high failure rate in excess of 80%. I know this from personal experience because I started out as a network marketer and wasted a lot of time and money using outdated recruitment methods that were painfully ineffective.

Through the use of resell right products I was able to create fully automated lead generation and sales systems that literally cranked out leads an sales while I slept! It really is a wonderful feeling to turn own my computer in the morning and see that I have notifications of new leads and sales without ever having to deal with a lead broker or call someone on the phone and deliver a sales pitch. Next, I'll give you a brief overview of the resell right product industry and afterward share specific ways network marketers can use resell right products to accomplish exactly what I've just described.

Resell right products have been in circulation on the Internet since the early nineties and have been a powerful and profitable marketing tool for those savvy enough to harness their full business building potential. These products exist in a wide variety of forms such as ebooks, reports, graphics, web site/blog templates, videos, audios, scripts and software. The products most commonly exist electronic media formats but may also be rendered in printed paper format. Authors who are highly skilled at creating such products profit by selling them to others along with the right resell the products and retain all proceeds from the sale. Although I generically apply the term, resell right, to these products, they are often conveyed with other types of redistribution rights specified in a licensing agreement as follows:

1) Giveaway Right - The recipient obtained the product for free and has the right to freely distribute it to others but not sell it.

2) Personal Use Right - The purchaser can use the product but not resell it or give it away for free.

3) Master Resell Right - The purchaser of the product has the right to resell the product along with the right to resell it. This differs from a simple resell right scenario in which the purchaser can resell the product to others who can use product but not resell it.

4) Private Label Right - The purchaser of the product legally has to the right to place his name on the product and claim it as his own creation. The purchaser can sell the product with simple resell right, master resell right or just personal use right.

There are more variants of usage rights but this list should give you a basic understanding of the concept. Of the redistribution rights described above, the fourth is the most valuable because it offers the most flexibility for marketing. By nature these redributable products are quite prolific and if you have ever subscribed to a newsletter based on an offer that included a free bonus such as a report or ebook, there is a strong probability that the product you received originated as a resell right product. Now lets explore in depth, 10 ways you can benefit from these products.

1) Web Presence - Every network marketer needs a powerfully compelling web presence to effectively generate leads and sales. Unfortunately too many networkers erroneously believe that the replicated web site provided by their companies is all that is needed. As beautifully designed as those web sites may be, they possess two major weaknesses. First, they lack uniqueness as every associate web site is identical. Second, the sites are not customizable with the exception of being able to add a photo and a phone number. Therefore it s impossible for an associate to distinguish himself from other associates in the same company in any substantial way by using a replicated site alone.

By using web site or blog templates that are readily available in the resell right market place a network marketer can easily create a unique web presence that will enable him to rise above the crowd by showcasing his unique selling proposition and sharing information that will allow visitors to relate to him on a personal level. Marketing studies have proven that people conduct business with those they know like and trust and a personal web site is critical for establishing trust and rapport. In the resell rights market place there are web site/blog templates and graphics collections for every conceivable marketing niche. By choosing the right template and customizing it, a powerful web presence can be established much faster that it would be possible by starting from scratch.

2) Squeeze Pages - Once a web site is established one or more squeeze pages can be integrated. A squeeze page also known as a lead capture page is a simple page the presents some compelling information designed to get a visitor to leave their contact information so that additional marketing information can be delivered. There are tons of squeeze pages and lead capture tools available in the resell right product market place. I obtained one of my favorite and most effective squeeze pages from a resell right product package over 5 years ago that cost under $30. The page is about the size of a computer screen with text areas for a title, some bullet points, a small blurb, and a video. I customized the page for a few marketing niches and it has been responsible for generating many thousands of dollars in income and I'm still using it today.

3) Incentives - Everyone likes to get free stuff which is the reason you see the word, free, commonly used in advertisements for all types of products and services. If used correctly, incentives or giveaways can be a powerful factor for generating leads and closing sales. One common marketing technique for increasing the effectiveness of squeeze pages is to offer a free bonus bonus report or ebook in exchange for contact information. So where would you get a high quality product for little or no cost that could give away for free? Well if you guessed, the resell right product market place, you guessed correctly! Freely giving away a quality product helps to establish good will, trust and evoke the law of reciprocity. When you give something to someone they often feel obligated to give you something in return. That "something in return" could be giving your offer extra consideration over that of a competitor which results in a sale for you!

4) Autoresponder Content - Marketing studies have revealed that a person typically needs to be exposed to an offer 5 - 7 times before feeling comfortable with making a purchase. The autoresponder is the perfect tool for steadily exposing a potential customer to the information needed to make a purchase decision via a strategically crafted set of email messages. If you are unfamiliar with email marketing, the task of creating an autresponder followup series can seem daunting.

Fortunately, within the resell right marketplace there are prewritten autoresponder message series covering a wide variety of niches that can be transferred into any autoresponder service giving you an effective autoresponder campaign in a fraction of the time it would take you to create one from scratch. Once your initial autoresponder campaign is setup you can easily customize the messages with affiliate links and add more messages if you want. Then you can integrate a squeeze page and subscription bonuses like a free ebook or report to make it more robust.

5) Sales Pages - A sales page is strategically written to close a sale by appealing to a prospect's sense of logic and emotion to induce a purchase decision. A sales page is roughly equivalent in principle to a sales pitch script that a network marketer might obtain from their company, however it is far more powerful because once it is written and tested, it can literally close sales automatically. If you have ever purchased a product or service after reading a sales page then you have experienced its power. Expert sales page writers can easily charge thousands of dollars to write a single sales page. Fortunately, you don't need to be an expert to create a sales page that is effective for your purposes. Most resell rights products are packaged with a sales page designed to sell a specific product. By examining a few resell right product sales pages and familiarizing yourself with their structure and style you can choose one related to your marketing niche and customize it to crank out enrollments and sales for your business.

6) Traffic & SEO - There are many resell right ebooks and instructional videos available from which you can learn the fine points of traffic generation and search engine optimization (SEO). In addition, you can find content-rich search engine optimized blog templates that can be quickly and easily installed with a web hosting service and modified to suit your needs. Remember, it is much easier to modify something that exists than it is to create something from scratch. This is how leveraging off of resell right products saves time and effort.

7) Self Funding Proposal - Wouldn't it be nice if you could get people to pay you up front to take a look at your business opportunity? This can be accomplished by using a resell right product as a template to create your own product that is embedded with advertisements for what ever you wish to promote. This can be done very effectively with an ebook. Create a sales page for the ebook combined with with some other quality products as bonuses and sell it as a package. The proceeds from sales made from selling the product will defray your advertising expenses and quite possibly result in a profit if you have a finely tuned advertisement campaign. This technique works very well with any form of paid advertising such as per-per-click search engines.

8) Direct Selling - Take a resell right product and sell it directly to generate income. This is after all, is their main purpose. As I mentioned earlier, most resell right products include a sales page. They may also include a squeeze page and autoresponder messages that are ready for use after being set up on a web server. Although a resell right product may be sold as is, it is always best to modify the sales materials to add a bit of uniqueness to distinguish yourself from other marketers who may be selling the same product.

9) Multiple Niche Marketing - With resell right products it is very easy to branch out an explore the profitablility of marketing niches other than that of your primary business. Here is an example based on my own experience.

One day a saw an ad for a dating affiliate program that intrigued me so much I decided to join it although I had no experience with the dating niche. I searched my hard drive for some dating related resell rights products I had downloaded in the past. I chose the best one to test and installed the prewritten squeeze page, sales letter and autoresponder message series onto my web server and linked it to a new domain name. I customized the materials a bit just as I have recommended in this article. To quickly test it I setup some pay-per-click ad campaigns. The results shocked me! I was stunned at how easy it was to generate regular and predicable income in the dating niche. The success I experienced inspired me to setup sites in other niches some of which include, pet rescue, natural healing, and self-defense. I would never have done this if had not been for the availability of resell right products for these niches.

10) Education - The authors of resell rights products are very adept at staying current with the latest trends in Internet marketing so that the products they create will be in high demand. You can learn a lot about all aspects of marketing by studying and applying the in information contained these products.Remember, knowledge is power!

I hope that this article has given you a solid foundation of information upon which you can leverage off of resell right products to grow your own business. In actuality I have given you much more than a list of ways to use resell right products. I have given you a blueprint for automatically generating leads and sales. You don't need to be a "computer wiz" to use these products. All you need is basic computer skills like reading, typing, copying, cutting, pasting uploading, downloading. That's all! What I've described may seem like a a lot of hard work but it is really not. Of course effort on your part is required but all of the hard work was done by the people who created the products. All you have to do is profit from their effort by using them.

Default Creative Method for $35,000 in Two Weeks, Newbie/Experienced Friendly Method

ecided I would post a quick method that we played around with. This method is pretty solid, simple, and effective. The method produced $35,000 in two weeks!

The background:

If you don't know what OpenTable is, it is a reservation system for restaurants. Users search out restaurants in their city or town and if the restaurant is on Opentable they can book a reservation through the system.

What you don't know is, on average, restaurants pay close to $675 per month to OpenTable. The reason for this is every reservation booked through their system costs the restaurant $1.50 per head.

Thus, book a reservation for 10, $11.50 goes to opentable, this is not including the recurring costs OpenTable has for the restaurant to run the reservation system on site.

The Method:

Basically, what we do is build a mobile site for the restaurant. However, build it so it is an app.

You can easily find templates that can work with Wordpress for mobile sites here:

Mobile | ThemeForest

-------------------------------------------------------

We researched restaurants on OpenTable, we found 15 restaurants that besides opentable, they had a Facebook page, or Twitter page, or both. What this told us is that they were keen on New Technologies. They are willing to spend time and money making these new technologies work for them.

We found the restaurants, they usually have a website, we took the information right off their website and put it into the mobile app and published it on our server.

Placed it on the home page of the Iphone.

-------------------------------------------------------

We then went to the restaurant, personally I went into three restaurants. Had the sales team do the rest. I walked in with my phone and asked to speak to the manager or owner.

Usually you will see a hostess or someone behind the bar, they ask what it is about, and I let the product do the talking.

I said, we built this app for your restaurant and I want to present it to the manager or owner to see if they would like it. The product usually amazes the restaurant and sells for you.


My pitch was simple.

"I know you are paying per head on every reservation that you produce through OpenTable. Our app is to help you save costs by giving your customers a way to book reservations quickly and efficiently through your own app."

"We would like to produce 500 cards with an advert for the app, we would like you to staple these cards to your customer receipts, on the front of the card will be a QR code for the person quickly to download the app, otherwise they can go to, www.restaurantnameapp.com "

On the back of the card you present your web development, app development, and marketing skills.


An example of a QR code business Card:

-----------------------------------------------------

In the end, the restaurant agrees to utilize the app, we print up 500 cards which doesn't cost much.

It's about $50 for good cards, 500 prints. (vistaprint.com)

We ask for $200 for setting everything up, which usually came to me in cash.

-----------------------------------------------------

Where does the money come in....

From the back of the card. The goal is to get into the restaurants for the easiest exposure for your business, they also get to see a sample of your work.

We got into 10 restaurants and got $2,000 for our promotional needs. The cards cost was around $500 dollars, but can be done much cheaper, if you don't make them fancy.

From the 5,000 cards....

1,000 people downloaded apps from our server, so we reached 20% of the restaurant go'ers from the promotion.

The response, two weeks after we initiated the promotion, we received around 25 orders for websites of business owners around NYC, we received 5 orders for other restaurant apps.

All orders totaling around $35,000 in sales.

How do I improve this 5% open rate on an existing list?

Open rate has a few key important aspects

1) The name it's coming from

This is built up over both a short, and long period of time.

I recommend sending more often so that people can become 'fanatics' of your brand

2) Subject line

Without giving away the farm with every best opener I've got...

I recommend, once again, is that you send more often to figure out what works best (subject line wise)

3) Post subject line

This carries the least amount of weight in terms of opens...

However, many times this can become a continuation of your subject line.

For example, which email do you think would have a better open % based on the first sentence:

"Hey, it's James"

or

"I've never felt a worse pain in my life..."

Anyway, what you think about expands...

Keep thinking, keep doing, keep growing

How I made $1200 this past weekend selling mobile sites

Well,, it took a while to put together but,, I finally got it together and launched my mobile biz. I have been here for a while now getting all the info and everything set up,,, whew!!! A lot of you have seen me. (This is just my first crack at mobile,, always been a IM'er for the past 10 years,, well,, a dabbler with some ok success, but now I may quit my day job,, and I make a lot)

Now,,I will tell you what I did to get $1200 buck-a-roonies,, 1200 smack-a-doodles,, 1200 samolians. Cold hard cash, my brothas. On my 1st attempt no less!

Ok,, It took a while but that's because I had to go through a ton of materials, training courses,, and bought every wso for mobile marketing. I went in with a NO FAIL attitude. You MUST have this in order to succeed. Aim to be the greatest ever! So if you're not,, you'll still be pretty damn good.

Ok, Ok,,, 1st)... I decided on a biz name. Rockstar Mobile Media (Free)

2nd),, I got a domain with that name,, or close. ($10?)

3rd.) I filed the name with the city. You must do this to get the papers to open a bank account in your biz name(in the U.S.). Don't forget this people, you can't just get checks made out to a business name and cash them,, it won't work. And what biz wants to write checks to a persons name? They dont know you. A business seems more trustworthy than some dude sayin' "hey, write me a check, dammit. ($40 I think.)

4th) I opened a bank account in my new biz name. Need a place to dump the cash that's allegedly gonna be raining down on my head. (free)

5th) Next I got a new phone #. Only $9mo,, but worth it. (I have another biz so I don't wanna mix up calls, ("Hello, Rockstar,, oops I mean...),

6th) Website. Now, this is not totally necssary, but I want to look establised and professional. But you can do this without one,, right up until a client wants to see YOUR site. Also, a site provides a place to educate potential clients and them have them fill out their info. Like a squeeze page but much larger .

Ok,, then I got the Localizer Lead tool. I think from here. $97 bucks. With this software, you can choose any niche, in any city in the world, and it will seek out all the info about every business in that niche, in that city. It gives name, numbers, websites and even emails. I ONLY have used the emails so far. By the way,, I chose bailbonds in San Diego, CA. Turns out the biz I sold 2 sites to was in Minnasota. I did it all by email. NO PERSONAL CONTACT! This software takes 20 seconds to find 300 leads,, not 300 emails,, but 300 leads.

So, I picked out all the emails and sent out a blast with a simple email that said I can't view your company website on my phone. With a little expanation of their problem and how I can help to solve it. Very soft selling. Not even selling,, just trying to get them to see a video. So, I sent out about 100 emails. I got 1 response so far but, 1 was worth $1200!
And the emails took about 10 minutes. I only email out 25 at a time, And I use Bcc. ( I read up on spamming) Well, one bailbonds company emailed me,, asked how much,, I said $597 + Hosting. He said Ok,,,

Now, I have WillR's My Mobile Business and learned a ton of stuff from his training course. But I used Mobile Marketing XT to build the sites,, super awesome software, combined with Will's Lil Red Snapper. It's drag and drop,, super easy,, you can easily install video as well on these sites.

So, I made up a site in about 2 hours,, sent it to him as a mock up,, he liked it, and said he had another location and wanted a whole new site for that one too. $597 X 2= $1194.00 + Monthly hosting. I made the 2nd site even faster. Maybe 1 hour. I'm not kidding. This stuff is easy and fast to do and you can make a killing. Yes,, I'm on the high end,, but isn't that where you wanna be?

So,, now I'm gonna do more email blasts in other niches to test what's best,, if there is such a thing. I tried Chiropractors and I got 2 calls that I still need to respond to. They were missed calls and they didn't leave a message, so I'm gonna try my hand at semi-cold calling. Hope I don't stu stu ststststst, stutter.
