Getting your site(s) 'Out There'

One way to find relevant places to submit your site to is to search in Google for something like :

crafts "submit url"

You could also try

crafts forum

(obviously crafts would be replaced with whatever your area is).

It is a little time consuming, but usually only has to be done once and that way you can manually approve where you are submitting your site(s) to. If you make a point of spending 20 minutes a day in this way you will have a lot of valuable links and free advertising within a few weeks/months :-)

30 day plan - Internet Profits - Month 2 and Beyond

Month 2 and Beyond: From here on, I only need to focus on a few things...

  • Building my mailing list consistently,
  • Building a strong relationship with my list members by offering them great value through free reports, articles, and tips, AND...
  • Finding and forming new positive and mutually-beneficial relationships with other power players in the field, i.e. joint ventures.
  • Offering them great products and services on a consistent basis! These products can either be your own, affiliate products, or products that you buy resell rights to.
Don't be afraid to sell to your list. Those who are only there to get free stuff will probably drop out eventually. And, that's a good thing! That's what you want! Those who appreciate the value you provide for them will stick around for a long time.

Continue to joint venture and make deals with other publishers / webmasters to build your network, build your list as well as generate ongoing profits!

Survey your list and find out what type of products they would want in the future. Find out what their main wants, concerns, and problems are. Then, either find the appropriate products or create them yourself, and offer it to them.

Another powerful concept you can introduce into your business is to add residual income streams. These are usually businesses (your own or others) that continue to pay you a monthly income per each customer that you bring in. You bring in a customer one time and continue getting paid for that customer for as long as he/she is with the company.

30 day plan - Internet Profits - Day 30

Day 30 : Closing Thoughts

In closing, I'd like to say that, the strategies I've offered above may sound simple but they work! If you put in the time and effort, you will see amazing results.

Keep it as simple as you can and continue to improve on the basics.

Also remember that in order to succeed massively in business, you have to separate yourself from all the other players in your field/niche.

You can do this by establishing your uniqueness! Find some way to differentiate yourself from everyone else. You are a unique individual and I’m sure you have some unique qualities in you. At the least, be unique in the way you create/write products, package them, or the level at which you offer customer service.

Finally, keep in mind that in this business (or any other business for that matter), you will get to hear some "no's" along the way. You will meet some challenges and bumps.

Don't take any of it personally. Learn from them and keep moving forward. Action and persistence are really the keys to the castle.

To your Success!

30 day plan - Internet Profits - Day 29

Day 29: Oh heck, I don't know, respond to any emails that came in, watch more orders coming in and...take the rest of the day off!

You've worked hard for the past 28 days and you're starting to see some really great results. It has really paid off.

Take a moment to smile and be thankful for all the great things that are beginning to happen. Believe me, this IS just the beginning.

Between the viral reports, the affiliate program, and now the joint ventures, things should start rolling pretty well.

30 day plan - Internet Profits - Days 24-28

Day 24 - 28: Form Alliances With Other Marketers (i.e. Joint Venture)

Start by contacting those publishers and webmasters who agreed to post your report/recipe to their lists/sites.

Offer them a good percentage of the profits if they help you get the word out about your product. i.e. if they endorse your product to their database of prospects and customers.

Next, contact other webmasters and ezine publishers in your field and offer to join forces with them as well. (You can find these either at the forums or our handy google.com search engine.)

The more enticing, beneficial, and unique your offer is, the more joint venture successes you will create. If they happen to have a phone number on their site, pick up the phone and give them a call. If not, send them an email (or even a postal mail) about your JV offer.

Note: Offer each JV prospect you contact a free copy of your product so they can review it before they decide to joint venture with you.

Important: Each successful joint venture deal can jolt your subscriber rate and your profits significantly! Don't be surprised to see a lot of orders pouring in through joint ventures alone.
