Yes, I know, it’s been awhile since I posted to this blog. Slap
me on the wrist - bad publisher. Sometimes you have to focus on
what pays the bills. And I’ve been really busy running promotions
and building up my other niche sites, all while trying to be the
best ’stay at home dad’ I can be.
The truth is, I make less than 5% of my income from the ‘work at
home in your pajamas’ niche - even though it’s what I’m most
passionate about. Therefore, when you see these PublisherAcademy
communications from me, you know I’m mainly doing it to teach and
give back. Not to mention that I enjoy talking about this stuff.
One of my goals for the New Year is to get more involved in this
niche. I think I have some knowledge and experience people can
learn from being that I’ve been doing this since 2001 and have
grossed over a million dollars in sales after starting out with
about $200.
That’s the beauty of the Internet. There is no other business you
can start in your spare time with little or no startup capital, no
barriers to entry and zero risk. With real income and all the tax
benefits of owning a business.
Think about that for a moment. It defies everything you’ve been
taught about business.
Websites, blogs, ebooks, videos, audios, forums, newsletters,
membership sites, etc. all have one thing in common - they are
methods of delivering a product or service and don’t cost squat to
produce. Forget about your pre-conceived notions, these things are
commodities online and the cost is not a real consideration.
You can literally buy a template for $60, get hosting for $10, a
domain for $8, use free open source software to add text to your
site, use PayPal to accept payments and be in business the same
day. You don’t have to be very technical to do this and it will
look so professional that no one can tell that you’re not an
established business.
There are a gazillion people online all searching for information
and all with their own problems, needs and desires. They are just
waiting for you to step in and be a supplier, provide a solution,
or simply give them something that makes them happy and
entertained.
Years from now people will look back on this opportunity like the
California Gold Rush. The Internet is that type of life changing
technology which everyone ‘in the know’ will benefit from. It has
already made millionaires out of many average everyday people.
The only thing you have to risk in this business is your time and
I’ve never met anyone who has spent years trying to do this and has
failed. Trying is the main word in that sentence - people who take
action and actually try, will succeed.
But, you need some instruction. You need to learn what works from
someone who has done it successfully. This is what I’m planning to
offer in 2008. Knowing what I know, you WILL make money.
However, I need your feedback to help me help you…
I’m still trying to get a feel for the best way I can help people
succeed. I’m considering a few different options which I’d like to
get your feedback on. Based on your feedback, I may do all or none
of these in 2008:
1. A Members-Only Online Forum where you can ask questions and
learn from myself, forum members, and other experts I bring in.
2. A comprehensive instructional course with text, audio, and video.
3. A Limited Enrollment, Personal Coaching / Mentoring Program
which will provide one-on-one instruction.
4. A premium physical newsletter mailed to your home each month (or
bi-monthly) revealing insider secrets to making money online.
5. An online program which gives you your own product to sell, a
site to sell it on, and a step by step guide for making it
successful.
Please reply and let me know what you think of these options. I look
forward to hearing from you.
To Your Success,
Ron
