We all are in search of the silver spoon that will put our business on automatic pilot and the only thing we have to do is cash the checks. Aren’t you looking for this as well? I say you are and that’s the reason why you’re actually reading this article. You’re hoping to find the one tool, the one method, the one trick or the magic system that will make your dreams come true.
However, I have to disappoint you. There is no such thing as a silver spoon that will magically run your business while you sit back, relax and do nothing. If there was one, why is everybody trying to sell you the next big thing or the breakthrough that will make you rich and you won’t need to chase the magic system anymore?
Are you still confused? Because I am. You bet! Without exact and clear definition of what you are doing, there will be no answers. What does being rich mean to you? What exactly will the $50,000 solve for you? It sure means something different to you than it does to me. We all strive to achieve our financial freedom, and that’s the only thing we have in common
Sorry for getting off topic here, but I bet you still want to know how to make real money with an Internet business, don’t you? So no more repeating marketing material over and over again , but instead I will tell you how I make real money with my Internet business.
First, you need a product and a website to sell your product. I joined several programs that offer new tools and books with full master resale rights every month. What this actually means is that I can resell these products and keep 100% of the profit. I also have full control over the sales letter. This is very important. You are the one to set the price and you decide which bonus material you want to add. You also need somebody to process the credit card payments. My choices are PayPal and Clicbank.
Right, so by now you have a fantastic sales web site and you’re ready for business, but there is still a problem. To your misfortune nobody knows that you just opened for business and the cobwebs are starting to grow on your front door. The missing killer ingredient is traffic.Yep,you need traffic and LOTS OF IT! Don, do what I did. After joining all kinds of traffic exchange programs I can honestly say, they don’t work. You need something more powerful.
So here is exactly what I do every time I create a new web site for a new product I’m promoting, whether as my own or as an affiliate. I put an ad on the major pay-per-click engines like Google, Oveture, 7search and FindWhat. This gives my business a jump start. Please read all terms and agreements of these before you jump in, as they can be very dangerous.
Next I create backdoor pages for the new web site and promote them to the search engines through a blog. Search engines will index your pages much faster when you have a link to them from a blog. Never submit your sales web site directly to any search engines. You will get much higher rankings if they find you.
I also make sure that I place a popup window on every doorway page to sign up for my newsletter. One, that cannot be blocked. This way, at least, I’m sure to capture the email addresses of my visitors. Also several Google AdSense windows will give me a little kick back.
Now a way to make it even more profitable, I take advantage of the thank you page for the newsletter subscription. I give away free stuff with lots of references to other web sites of mine and I make the subscriber aware that the real good stuff to download is hidden in an email. Therefore if they give you a fake email just to download the free stuff it won’t work. But at least they download the free promo material. My statistics are showing me that this is working. I always make sure that the free stuff I’m giving away has viral marketing built in. Meaning, it needs to reproduce itself without any intervention from my part.
This doesn’t sound like much, but after setting up 5 sales web sites, the system is gaining momentum. Very soon, I will be able to drop the pay-per-click advertising, and I know that the system is able to support itself with enough visitors in order to make a profit.
Yeah I know, this is a lot of work. However, think about it and picture it in your head. Let’s say you put together a new sales web site every month. The possibility is that after 6 months you break even with the initial startup cost and pay-per-click costs. After that you’re making net profits. Let’s also say you’re making $200 a month in profits. Not much, but to be realistic. After just one year, if you have 12 sales web sites up and running, they produce $2400 a month in profits. Now tell me, would you walk away from a business like that? I didn’t think so!
Here’s a reality check for you, “if you want to get rich very quick you need to pray to win the lottery. But if you want to start a serious Internet business I advise you to follow my strategy. It works for me, and the chances are that it will work for you too. If you really want to push this system to the limits simply create several top of the pick affiliate programs and your profits will sky rocket through the roof.
