Welcome to Lesson 2 in our 3 part e-course...
The $100 A Day Income System
Thanks for joining me once again ;-)
Since you're here... that tells me you're serious about changing your
financial future and truthfully... that's half the battle online ;-)
Remember... actions speak 1000 times louder than words! Pick a target and
shoot!
So let's begin lesson 2 right now!
Did you do your homework? Did you make sure you have all your accounts
setup? Remember? Clickbank, PayPal, and PayDotCom.
I'll be walking around the classroom checking assignments so you better not
lie to me ;-)
Okay... the first step we've taken is we've ensured that we have our accounts
setup so we'll be sure we receive proper credit (and our profits) on product
referrals.
After all... think about this. There are so many folks online who've
spent months... if not years... developing amazing, top-shelf products and
services.
- They've spent countless hours creating and designing their products
- They've spent thousands of dollars in their sales copy and web
design.
- They've spent endless energy tweaking and perfecting their offer to bring
in maximum sales for each website visitor.
- They dedicate most of their time to providing good customer service after
a sale
- The list goes on and on...
These folks have already dedicated their lives to their products and yet
they're eager and willing to give you a HUGE commission for anyone you refer to
them that buys their product!
WOW! What a great opportunity... huh? There's literally tens of
thousands of top quality products and/or services available online that are worth
100 times their price tag... yet so many folks browsing the internet don't even
know these products exist!
What a shame! And we're here to change all that (and in an ULTRA-
CLEVER way)!
Obviously... if certain folks browsing the Internet knew about a particular
product or service that was going to help them in their trying situation in life
or business... chances are they'd probably buy... right?
Why wouldn't they? After all, if I could spend a mere $50 for a piece of
software that was going to save me 6 hours a day from writing emails... you could
bet your bootie I'd buy it! And if I purchased from a link that you
referred me from... that would be $25 in your pocket!
Seriously though... if I could buy an e-book that would explain to me how to
settle my IRS Tax Debt for pennies on the dollar and I happened to owe the IRS
$60,000... do you think I'd be just a little bit interested in finding out more
about the book?
Or... what if my Golden Retriever was doing his "dirty work" all over my house
at night? Do you think I might have some interest in an
information-packed
e-book called "5 Quick And Easy Steps To Housebreaking Your Golden
Retriever"?
Of course I would! And that's where our $100 A Day System takes
control!
It's simply gonna be our job to let folks out there know about all the
terrific products and services available online and why they'd have to be a fool
not to take advantage of them.
So... Are your brain muscles starting to flex a little now? Are you
starting to think of the possibilities?
I certainly hope so because by the time we've finished these lessons... you're
gonna be a world class product endorser making $100 A Day...
GUARANTEED!
Now... I'm sure by now you're familiar with "Affiliate Programs".
If not, I'll briefly explain:
An affiliate program is a program where a merchant will pay you a commission
to refer folks to their website. If your referral buys... you make a
substantial cut of the profit. You receive a "special" link that has your
affiliate ID in it and that's how the merchant knows you're the person who
referred the sale to them.
AndiIt seems nowadays everywhere you turn webmasters are enticing their
website visitors into clicking on a banner or a link and then you're
instantly
re-directed to an affiliate's website to buy - - CHING!
And that's a great thing!
The problem is... most of us are becoming more and more "blinded" by all the
flashy banners and links we see on every web page we visit... and that means less
and less profits for those websites who spend a significant amount of time,
money, and effort into promoting these programs.
Do these webmasters make money from their referrals? Yup! Do they
make a lot of money? Well... that would depend on the amount of traffic
they get to their website and the clever strategies they use to send folks off to
their affiliate partners.
But you really need to consider these factors as well:
- How much time do they spend out of their day updating, adding and editing
their affiliate links (remember... time is money).
- How many costs are involved in hosting and maintaining their
website.
- And most importantly... How much money do they spending getting all the
traffic to their website.
These three big factors (amongst other things) can make or break the
success of any website.
Think about it...
If Joe Webmaster makes $1000 a week from affiliate referrals but he spends 15
hours a day at his computer, spends $300 a week hosting and maintaining his
website, and spends $700 a week on marketing, search engine optimization, and
internet advertising... Do you think Joe Webmaster is making a nice living
online?
Hell No!
This poor sap is spending his entire life on his business and coming out at a
break even point at best. Yes... he could brag to all of his friends about
how he gets a "hefty" check every month for X amount of dollars from his
affiliate partners... but he's only kidding himself and practically wasting his
life away in the process!
Plus... many of us aren't web designers so we'd need to pay to have a site
designed and maintained and that could end up being a huge expense in itself -
cutting into our profits from our affiliate commissions.
I don't want to spend my life in front of my computer! And... I want
to be able to see a real profit from my efforts online! And I certainly
don't want to have to rely on someone else to update my website for me... NO
WAY!
Wouldn't you agree? And that's why my system doesn't require a fancy
website, 15 hour days in front of the computer, or a big advertising budget to
see any real profit!
As I mentioned previously.... all you need is a computer, an affiliate account
or two... and a keyboard... that's it!
So here's Step 2 in our $100 A Day Income System....
For now, forget the fancy website or big advertising budget!
We don't need it!
We're going to capitalize on an ingenious method where we simply write one
article a day (approximately 700-1000 words) and in that article we offer a
detailed, unbiased review of someone else's product. That's it!
Then, we're simply going to submit our article (product review) to some of the
most popular article directories online - directories where folks browsing
the web frequently visit to read on specific information they're searching
for.
The good news... many of these article directories get tens of thousands of
hits per day. They're all well ranked in the search engines already so
they've done the marketing for us ;-).
Talk about exposure for our articles!
YEEE HAWW!
No big fancy website... No big advertising budget... Just an hour or so of our
time each day to write a quality product review (in the form of an article) about
someone else's terrific product or service!
What an ingenious concept... no?
So... let me ask you... "DEAL OR NO DEAL?" (hehe... I love that
show)!
Alright... sorry I got off track there ;-)
Anyway... rest assured, I'm also going to provide you with a system to submit
your articles to hundreds (even thousands) of these directories with just a click
of your mouse.
Plus, I'm going to share with you some of the most popular directories out
there so that you can check them out for yourself (Hey! I told you you'd
have to do some homework on your own!)
So.. just to recap a bit....
- We've setup a few affiliate accounts with Clickbank, etc
- We're going to find some products we're interested in reviewing and write
a short product review about that product.
- We'll then submit these article to some popular article directories.
And here's the kicker...
Once we've written our article, we are afforded the opportunity to place a
small "About The Author" byline at the bottom of each of our
articles. Many article publishers use this "ad space" to tell folks a
little about themselves and then also place a link back to their website.
Well.. guess what! We don't have a website. We don't want a
website!
So... we're going to use this small ad space to place a brief note about our
affiliates website and also use our special "affiliate link" in the
process.
This way, when someone reads our rave review about a particular product, they
just might want to learn a little more about it. So, they simply click on
the link at the bottom of our article and VIOLA!
We get credit for the referral and more importantly a commission if this
person decides to buy the product.
Dang! I love the Internet!
And think about this... Once you start writing these articles on a daily basis
and submitting them to the various article directories... they remain on that
directory's website indefinitely! So, the more articles you have written,
the more money you'll begin to see coming in from all those affiliate
referrals.
Cool huh?
And, by using affiliate accounts through Clickbank and PayDotCom, they handle
all the tracking and also issue your commissions on a set schedule so you don't
have to worry about whether or not you're accurately getting credit for your
referrals or getting paid on time. They handle EVERYTHING and they do a
great job in the process!
Well... that about sums things up for today's lesson...
But in tomorrow's lesson we're going to go over some of the most popular
article directories and I'm going to show you a few tools you could use to submit
your articles to these directories with ease!
It's gonna be a real eye-opener for sure! Just you wait and
see....
So, for your homework tonight... why not jump on over to Google and do some
searches for "article directories". Then, take a look at some of the
articles you see there and also check out the various topics that you can
browse. There's a plethora of information awaiting you ;-)
Also, pay special attention to the "about the author" sections and also
the style and formatting most article publishers use for their articles. I
think you'll be pleasantly surprised at the wealth of information available that
you probably didn't even know existed.
It's a golden opportunity ;-)
Talk to you tomorrow... Good luck ;-)
