Welcome back to part 3 of my money making series.

A few days ago we started talking about list building as a way for you to make money working from home on the Internet.  For myself and many others this has been the key to our Internet marketing success.

Today I want to share with you the step-by-step system that I use to make money with my list every day.  However, instead of trying to explain it all in this blog post I am going to refer you to an ebook instead.

Sorry.  No sense in me trying to reinvent the wheel when all this information is already out there readily available.

If you are looking for a step-by-step system to building a profitable opt-in mailing list there is no better place to start than Soren Jordansen’s “Internet Marketing Success Formula”.

You download a free copy here:

Save it to your computer and then take some time today to read the whole thing.

Don’t just skim… read it!

You will be glad you did.

Next time I won’t take the easy way out and i’ll show you some techniques you can use to create your own mouth watering freebies that can be given away to build your list.  Look for it in a few days.

Well that was fun.

As you may or may not know I have been working my butt off rewriting my first ebook which is all about advertising with free traffic exchange programs.  It’s been going slow but I really got into it again a few weeks ago and was hoping to do a huge relaunch at the end of the month… and then Tony Tezak released Traffic Exchange Solutions a few days ago.  D’oh!

Tony is sort of a legend in the TE world so there is no way I could realistically release my ebook right on his heels and expect any amount of excitement for it.  I guess that just gives me a little more time to work on my book to make it even bigger and badder than ever!  You’ll just have to wait a few weeks longer before you get a chance to behold it’s brilliance.  lol.

In the meantime I figure I should keep this writing thing going and post some new content.  I decided to write a short info series for the people who are still struggling to make money online.

Before we get started I should probably point out that while there are a whole lot of good free traffic sources and free services out there that you can use to build your business…  from my personal experience it is almost impossible to start a successful online business with absolutely no money.

Not exactly what you wanted to hear, right?

The good news is that it doesn’t take much money to start and most of the tools you will be using include affiliate programs that can eventually earn you a tidy profit every month.

So here is your first assignment…

Follow this link and download a free copy of a book written by my good friend Jon Olson called “The Pizza Plan”.  Inside you will find the exact budget that Jon used when he quit his job and started working online full-time.  It includes the “must have” tools that every Internet marketer needs.

Click here to get The Pizza Plan:

Think about how much you are willing to set aside each month for your own online business.  You don’t need to spend as much as Jon did but if think you can build a successful online business with zero out of pocket expenses you are going to have a very long struggle ahead of you.

We’ll start getting into the good stuff next time so keep checking back here or subscribe to this blog at the top of the page so you don’t miss an another action packed update.

Enjoy the book!

Hello.

Happy Wednesday!

I know.  Other than my weekly jv giveaway updates I haven’t been writing much lately.  Sorry.  I will try to post more content soon.

In the mean time I am happy to be able to share with you a book written by my good friend William Brant called “13 Deadly Traffic Exchange Tragedies”.

This isn’t a new book but until now William had been selling it on his website for $37.  Not cheap but worth every penny when you consider that these 13 tips are going to be a kick in the pants for some of you who make these  mistakes every day with their ads.

I just got the ok from William who told me I can give away free copies of his book to my readers provided they actually put these strategies into practice.

So, here you go…

Just download and enjoy!

Hooray!

I’m about a month late but yesterday I finally released my new ebook/website called JV Giveaway Tactics.  You can check it out here:

http://www.GiveawayTactics.com

The book shows people how they can build their list bigger, faster, and easier using JV giveaway events.

I started using giveaway events about a year ago to build my list and was shocked at how well they worked.  Before this I had heard about giveaway events but never understood how they worked.  It turns out that giveaway events are actually pretty simple but here are a lot of little things that need to be done ahead of time to really get the most benefits from them.

Since most of the really big  jv giveaway events are scheduled around major holidays I figured this would be the perfect time of the year to release a book like this.  There is even a calendar inside the website that alerts members to all the great new giveaway events that are coming up.

The JV Giveaway Tactics site launch went eerily smooth.  Its been about 15 hours since it launched and so far there are 298 members.  Not bad for a free ebook.  I gotta give a big shout-out to Jerry Reeder for helping me out with my sales page copy until 4:00 am the night before.  Thanks Jerry!

I woke up at 9:00 am to make some last minute changes and opened the doors to the site at 10:00 am.  A few hours later I did what any new business owner would do at his first day on the job… I took a nap.  Lol.  Yep, I slept good too knowing that my system was all in place and everything was running smoothly.  In fact, I still have not received one support email (well, there was one but it was spam so at least I know the support room works).

Word of mouth has been good and my members are making money so I would say this launch has been a success.  This gives me a little more confidence as I go into my next project which is going to be bigger and badder than anything I have done so far.  Stay tuned!

In my last post I talked about how to use free viral reports to drive traffic to your websites.  If you missed it, you can read it here.

One of the best way to insure that your report or ebook goes viral is to make it rebrandable.  Creating a rebrandable ebook gives people the ability to replace some of the links in your ebook with their own.  This gives them more of an incentive to distribute your ebook to other people.

Until recently there hasn’t been a good way to create rebrandable ebooks that were easy for the end user to rebrand.  My previous rebrandable ebooks required the user to download a second ebook where all the links were replaced with special codes.  They then needed to download and install special rebranding software to create their new rebrandable ebook.  I usually had to create special instructions on how to use the rebrander and sometimes I ended up having to do it for them.

Jay Hines just released a new tool that makes creating rebrandable ebooks a snap!  It’s called Easy Viral PDF Brander.  Easy Viral PDF Brander is a script that you install on your website that allows people to quickly and easily rebrand an ebook without needing to download any special software.

Easy Viral PDF Brander is very easy to use.  Simply create your ebook the way you normally would using Word or Open Office.  When inserting the links you will replace the rebrandable part with a special code.  Create your PDF file and upload it to your site and then run Easy Viral PDF Brander.

When you visitors want to rebrand your ebook you can direct them to a page on your site where they will be given a list of all the rebrandable links in your ebook.  It works sorta like a downline builder.  They add they affiliate links to the boxes and when they are finished they can download their ebook rebranded with all of their links.

This is a great product for anyone wanting to create viral reports and ebook.  To get a copy of Easy Viral PDF Brander click the image below.

Over the last few years I have been creating viral reports that I use to promote my Internet business.  The way it works is you create a high quality report on a subject that contains links to your websites or affiliate links.  You then give that report away for free.  Hopefully, if the report is good, some of the people you give it to will pass it on to other people and some of them will do the same.  Over time it starts to spread like a virus and eventually there are thousands of reports floating around out there with your links in it.

It’s pretty simple but it works.

This week a friend of mine named Jay Hines released a new ebook called “Viral Reports Revealed”.  Inside Jay reveals some of his best techniques for creating free viral reports and show exactly how to make them go viral.

Inside you will discover…

- How to pump out your own library of viral reports in record time, without writing a single word.

- How to make others actually want to pass on your viral reports. These secrets are what many are missing.

- How to destroy your competition by having your own army of ebooks working as your personal salesmen.

- One guru-coveted strategy that will allow you to both rake in the cash and explode the size of your list with viral reports — off others efforts!

Since this is a viral ebook I decided to give it away for free on my site.  Nothing to sign-up for.  If you would like a free copy of Viral Reports Revealed… click here.

The best thing about Viral Reports Revealed is that for a small fee Jay is offering the rebrand rights to his book.  That means you can replace all the links in Viral Reports Revealed with your own affiliate links and see first hand the power of distributing free viral reports.

It’s been 3 days since I launched my Safelist Marketing Tactics website and so far I have been very happy with the results.

Have you joined yet?

http://www.SafelistTactics.com

Since Monday I have had almost 800 people join and the site has generated close to $900 in sales.  Not epic numbers by an means but this was a pretty small launch.  Now that I am a little more confident that I know what I am doing I think I should be able to pull off something a little bit bigger next time.

I must admit that I was also a little hesitant to release something I had personally written to such a large audience.  I am not a professional writer.  I usually just write the way I speak.  Based on the feedback I have received it sounds like I at least did a pretty good job of offering some valuable content which is what I was shooting for anyways.

I was planning to get started on my next project right away but I think I am going to spend some time expanding the Safelist Marketing Tactics site.  I
have some great ideas to help make the site a little more valuable to free members and also help the upgraded members earn more money.

If you haven’t joined yet I would love to have you as a member.  Even if you are not really interested in safelist marketing the membership site is still an interesting business model that you can use to build your own business.

Hello and Happy Monday!

Today is an exciting day because I finally got the chance to read Jon Olson’s new ebook called “The Pizza Plan“.

Yes, it’s a funny name for a book about Internet marketing but well worth reading because it contains Jon Olson’s exact budget and marketing plan that he used to go from dead broke and working in a pizza place to earning well over six figures a year.

During one of our weekly online seminars I got the chance to hear Jon talk about the system he used to do this and I was stunned by how simple it was. Anybody can do this!

I planned on blogging about it right away but he made us swear not to reveal it to anyone because he wanted to release it as a professional ebook for anybody to use.

Well, it’s finally done and you can now download a copy of The Pizza Plan for free!

The Pizza Plan will show you…

* The Only Three Tools You Need For Success
* How to Create Profit Circles
* And How Do It For Less Money Than The Average Person Spends on Junk Food

…And you can follow his exact plan for less money money than what the average person spends on junk food.

Grab your copy of The Pizza Plan by clicking on the image below.

Enjoy!

Jerry

PS – Once you get The Pizza Plan straight from the horse’s mouth and see how powerful and life changing it is, you will want to share it with others. So, don’t let the opportunity to rebrand it, slip away from you!

“Two heads are better than one.” How many times have you heard that old adage? What about, “Many hands make light work”? Have you heard that one? The essence of these two adages is that cooperation has an advantage and that advantage is often overlooked.

When it comes right down to it you can only accomplish so much work in an hour or a day or a week. Your output is limited to what only you can do alone. But if you add what you can do to what someone else can do then that output rises and more can be accomplished than either individual could accomplish alone. This is the basis of joint ventures in Internet marketing.

One person sitting behind their computer who has created a new and innovative product or service that they know could sell like hotcakes to the right market but who has little experience in marketing has only a product or service while an established Internet marketer is sitting behind their computer with a long and well tested list of potential customers but doesn’t have a product to offer them. By entering into a joint venture agreement both people can achieve what neither of them could do alone.

The process is called “leveraging” and it works for all parties involved in a joint venture agreement. The idea is to use your strongest assets in conjunction with someone else’s strongest assets to leverage a stronger Internet marketing advantage.

It isn’t hard to set up a joint venture agreement and it can produce overwhelming benefits for everyone involved.

Joint Venture Success Secrets

I will be honest. Soren Jordansen’s Internet Marketing Success Formula pretty much floored me when I finally got a chance to read his free 41 page ebook.

Internet Marketing Success Formula is packed with information that Soren gathered from his own experiences as well as scientific surveys conducted on his blog of other internet marketers.

Soren’s surveys clearey show that the average Internet marketer is fairly new and wants to know how to make enough money on the Internet so that they can quit their job but they have no idea how to do this.

What is fantastic about Internet Marketing Success Formula is that Soren actually lays out a detailed step by step plan to help the average Internet marketer to acheive this.

Internet Marketing Success Formula was not just written for new Internet marketers though. Anybody who has been struggling to make money online will find this book to be an enormous asset.

When you think about it, Internet Marketing Success Formula is really just a down and dirty guide for setting up a complete Internet marketing business from scratch.

Soren covers everything from choosing a good web host, building an effective squeeze page, monetizing the entire list building process, how to create a profit pulling email series, and what affiliate programs work best for converting prospects into paying customers while creating creditability and trust.

Soren’s traffic generation system covers methods that generate tons of free traffic immediately and progresses through more advanced and tactics as well as how to use paid traffic sources to build your business faster.

Imho, what I think makes Soren’s book stand out above other money making guides is the real life examples that Soren gives for building his own business. He doesn’t waste your time by showing you how to create a fictional business. He shows you real life examples and exactly how it all works.

And the best part? Soren is allowing people to rebrand his ebook for an incredibly low price.

The techniques revealed in The Internet Marketing Success Formula could easily mean the difference between you becoming one of the few people making real money on the Internet or being one of the people who are going nowhere fast.

My advice would be to grab a copy of this free ebook and follow the steps exactly as they are laid out for you.

So you have finally written your first ebook. Now you need to decide how much you are going to charge for it. Finding just the right price for your product is essential to your success. If you charge too little people will think it is low quality and won’t buy it… or you will have to sell hundreds of copies before you start to see any real profit. If you price your book too high you will find yourself having to lower your price to compete with your competition which can cause all sorts of problems down the road. Let’s say you start selling your book for $25 and then lower it down to $15. Don’t you think the people who paid $25 are going to be a little upset when they see the new price?

Coming up with the best price for your ebook is one of the most important parts of the ebook marketing process. The first rule of coming up with a price for your ebook is to never underprice it. Try to determine the highest price that your audience would be willing to pay and then you can always reduce the price if you notice it is not selling. Before you reduce the price make so you are promoting your ebook like crazy. Always try to start with a high price and then launch a massive advertising campaign and track the results.

Pricing an ebook can sometimes be a little tricky because ebooks are a fairly new commodity. The value is often confusing to the average person because ebooks are digital products and not everyone understands what digital products are. This means we must look at ebooks in an entirely different way to determine what they are actually worth.

Just for a moment, let’s look at the difference between ebooks and an actual printed book. The printed book is an object that you can actually hold in your hands and store on your shelf. Pricing factors include such things as paper stock, production costs, and the cost of the marketing.

The one thing that is similar between print books and ebooks is that they are both composed of ideas.

What do you think an idea is worth when compared to the price of paper and ink?

It is the IDEAS that are valuable! That is how you determine the cost of your ebook.

There are many different methods to determine the price of your ebook. Let’s first try to zero in on your ultimate goals.

First you should decide if your goal to get maximum exposure and wide distribution for your ebook. This goal is geared towards getting customers into your business or service, or for establishing credibility of your reputation. If this is going to be your main goal then you should try to keep your price on the low side. Sometimes authors will even price their ebooks at a loss of profit just to draw in a higher number of new customers. The key here is to try and maximize your profits while at the same time keeping in mind the number of books you want to sell.

This is a great strategy if you are looking to get long-term customers for your business. Long-term customers are much more likely buy from you again assuming your first book is a quality product.

However, if your ebook actually contains valuable content along with new information, techniques, or references then you should try to set your price a little more on the high end.

Once you have your goal figured out you must then figure out what your audience’s need is for your ebook. Does your ebook solve a specific problem that isn’t found somewhere else? If so you will be able to achieve more sales at a higher price. You just need to make sure that the problem your book addresses is important and relevant to your target audience. If you are presenting something new you will be able to sell your book for a higher price. Just be prepared for your competition to try and undercut you when they find out about it.

Keep in mind that this pricing is only temporary. You will eventually stop selling books at that high price. So try to plan out in advance how long you want to sell your ebook at that price. When that time is up it is time to change your pricing strategy.

If you are looking for large profits over customer draw then try to target an audience that is looking for easy solutions to their problems at a low price. If your book is aimed at solving a specific problem you can charge more than if you were planning something more general. It is better to start at the highest price your market can handle and then plan to bring the price of the book down several times over the next year.

A good way to figure out the price for your book is to send out a survey to your current customers. If these people have bought a book from you in the past feel free to ask them for their opinion on the price of your next book. You can do this by creating a sales page for your book that does not include a price. Instead, add some links to some survey questions aimed at assigning a price to your book.

Another way to test out prices is by creating a duplicate sales pages each containing different prices. Then figure out the conversion ratio between the visitors to your site and the number of sales for your book. This should give you the optimum price of your ebook.

If you have been online doing Internet marketing for any length of time no doubt you have picked up a few resell rights products.  These are usually ebooks or can sometimes be software products.  Perhaps you received them as a bonus for joining a website or you bought a product and the rights were already included.

The first thing you will want to do is find out what the product is really worth. You can do that by Googling the name of the product to see who else is trying to resell it. While most resell rights products allow you to set the price that you can sell them for they normally cannot be given away for free. That doesn’t stop people from trying to sell them for $1.00. This completely devalues the product and makes it very difficult for anyone to make any money. If people are selling your product for next to nothing it probably isn’t going to worth your time to try and compete with them.

If you find you have a quality product make sure you actually take the time to read the ebook or use the product so you will know exactly what you have to work with. If it came html sales and thank you pages you are in luck. If not you will need will need to create them yourself.

If you already have a sales and thank you page that came with the product you will need to open them in an html editor and make a few changes. On the index page there will usually be a place to add your name at the top and bottom of the page. Read the rest of the page to make sure you aren’t missing any other items you need to edit. The “thank you” page will also be setup the same way. Make sure you change the “download” link to reflect the actual location of where the product will be located on your webhost.

Protect the link to your thank you page. If people find out where your thank you page is they will be able to download the product for free. To keep the search engines from indexing your thank you page add the following meta tag to the head of your thank you page:

<META NAME=”ROBOTS” CONTENT=”NOINDEX, NOFOLLOW“>

To add a payment button to your index page you will need to have a payment processor such as PayPal. From within PayPal go to the “Merchant Services” and click the “Buy Now Button”. Some of the options make look a little intimidating but there are only a few you will need to worry about. Start with entering the name of the product and the price you are selling it for. Choose a button style that you want to appear on your page. If your page already has a nice graphic button you can enter the location of that button.

Don’t make the button yet! You will need to tell PayPal where to send people after they have paid you. Click the “Add More Options” button and edit the “Successful Payment URL” to show the URL of your thank you page. This will let your customers have immediate access to your product as soon as they pay for it.

Create your payment button and paste into your sales page. Upload everything to your website and start sending traffic to sales page using the usual methods. An easy way to do this is to start writing articles on the topic of your product or even write a review and link it back to your sales page. The more product links you have out there the more you can make with your resell rights.

Setting up your resell rights pages is easy but being able to make serious money with them is a little more involved. For a more complete step-by-step guide to making money with resell rights products I suggest reading “15 Day Resell Rights Success“. It breaks everything down to a very easy to follow format that will have you earning money with your resell rights products in 15 days.

15 Day Resell Rights Success

I woke up this morning to an inbox full of emails telling me that Soren Jordansen had released a new ebook called “Internet Marketing Success Formula“. No, not “Traffic Success Formula“, that’s something completely different (smile).

In case you don’t know who Soren Jordansen is, he’s this crazy Internet marketer from Denmark who runs quite a few popular websites. I have been a Soren fan for awhile now. He and I seem to have very similar thoughts and ideas regarding Internet marketing… he’s just a LOT more successful at it than I am.

Internet Marketing Success Formula is the direct result of a survey that Soren ran on his blog a few months ago. I participated in that survey and as I recall there was a section at the end asking what aspects of Internet marketing you wanted to know more about. I suggested a few things that I had not seen covered anywhere else and I am psyched that some of those topics made it into his blog and now into the new book.

After reading so many ebooks filled with vague Internet marketing concepts Soren just lays out all the best secrets for making money building a profitable email list. Soren shows you the right way to setup squeeze pages, OTO pages, thank you pages, and even shows you exactly how to write your follow-up emails to “train” your subscribers to buy from you. Killer stuff!

Best of all, Soren is giving away his Internet Marketing Success Formula for free! There is a small fee if you want to rebrand the book with your affiliate links but if you purchase the OTO when you sign-up you can get it for practically nothing.

Highly Recommended! To get your copy, click the link below…
