Following on from my blog posting yesterday, giving you some simple resources to get you started online, here are a couple more, along with news of an exciting and totally fr*ee webinar I’m hosting tomorrow morning (Friday) at 11am, with Tim Brocklehurst, genius list builder extraordinaire!
Resource 1:
Yesterday we covered the need for a website or blog, to allow people to find you, and find out who you are, what you do, what you recommend (via an affiliate link) and most importantly, what you can do for them.
You would be amazed how easy and cheap it is to set up a professional search engine friendly blog and we recommend Typepad for starters. If you want the most economic package with the best features, you will need the middle package and you can get a free trial here
The internet marketing section of The Money Gym ebook is a good place to start with the basics, and you can get that at no charge, just by subscribing to our 101 Wealth Tips on the site. However, as a reader of our blog, if you have lost or deleted it or don’t want to wait for the internet module to arrive, you can download the whole 101 tips here as a zipped up file.
Money Gym Club Member Yvonne Halling has written a great article over at her blog at Well Heeled Diva’s about how tragically ill-equipped kids are to go out into the big wide world and survive financially….
“Sitting having dinner the other night with my 17 year old daughter and her boyfriend, I was listening to them talking about their lives. Both at college and looking for part-time jobs to supplement their life-style, they were bemoaning the fact that neither of them had any idea how to make money. And it’s the same for their friends too. They’re all broke and miserable. They have been taught at school to be employees - being paid what someone else thinks your worth.
In the 21st century, simply not knowing how to make money will become a serious problem, and it’s already started.
Why don’t they teach this in school? You’d think in this day and age, they’d include just maybe one class a week on ‘How to make money’ wouldn’t you? Why not? Maybe because the teachers themselves have no idea how to make money, so how could they ……………………
The Money Gym members are throwing down an internet challenge says Money Gym coach Marion Ryan! Nowadays, we are always hearing about the big bucks that can be made on the internet, millions of dollars/pounds in one day sometimes, and the concept of making money while you sleep is an exciting one - if true!
Sitting at home in our jim-jams eating bagels and left-over Easter eggs, watching Jeremy Kyle on the telly and stopping only briefly to see how many more sales have pinged into our Paypal account. Wouldn’t that be nice?
Just one ebook sale per day @ £20, from one one-page website, would make us an extra £7300 a year - enough for a new car or a couple of nice holidays. Two or three ebooks doing the same would make £21,900 - nearly a full time wage. The beauty of the internet is that you do the work once, and the money keeps coming. Imagine if you could spend a month putting up one ebook for sale - by the end of the year, you would be making £87,600 per annum.
There’s a problem though. The reality, for many of us is that we make a tenner here, twenty quid there, but most people never get much further than that in our pursuit of passive income.
Founder of The Money Gym Nicola Cairncross, who has built a six-figure business marketed entirely online, and who once made £14,000 in one weekend from one email, tells us she knows exactly why that is:
* We aren’t prepared to focus our attention in one place, on one thing, for long enough to make it work.
Nicola says if we just focus on one thing – one information product, one niche or one passionate interest – and take consistent regular action we can make ourselves some passive income online, and having done it once, can replicate those results over and over. This action would include
* Creating a web presence – a sales page, a brochure site, a blog. All of them preferably
* Capturing visitors’ details, encouraging them to subscribe to ezines (online newsletters)
* Turning them into raving fans by providing regular, maybe even daily, valuable content
* Having a system to automate the selling of our product till we make a profit
* Replicating the process.
As Nicola says, “like creating wealth, making money online is simple but it’s not easy, you have to get off your “assets”, learn new skills and take some action”.
To encourage - or even bully! their Money Gym members, to success, Nicola and Judith, her partner, have decided to set up an Internet Challenge for any of us who are sick of diddling about in this “Wealth Highway Lane” on a rusty old bike with a punctured tyre and broken bell and would like to trade up to a moped, a Harley or a Porsche. Something that will always need a bit of maintenance and some petrol but then just watch it go…
The Money Gym are incentivising their new Silver members and supporting them in the Challenge by giving them free lifetime access to Nicola’s 12-Step Internet Marketing Home Study Course - which retails for £1450 - and membership of a private email support group. This will provide encouragement, resources and a kick up the backside!
Your investment £27.50 a month (minimum one year), your return will be the support and knowledge to create a passive income online for life.
So if you’d like to join us for a three-month personal challenge to up the stakes on our internet passive income game then you should visit http://www.TheMoneyGymClub.com and join the club at Silver Level using the promotional code InternetChallenge.
Then, join the private Google group and do a search for “internet challenge” and you can read all the back discussions and get involved right now!
As a wealth coach, even while recovering from an op, I can’t help my ears pricking up when a money making or money saving tip is heard…..I was awake at the crack of dawn today and Martin Lewis from Money Saving Extra was on www.GM.tv this morning and talking about the fact that not many people move their ISA money around to take advantage of great new offer rates. Say you have some money in one ISA, from last year, or even a few years ago, where the % interest rate paid has been reduced over time, did you know that you can go to a new ISA provider and, if they request the transfer, you will enjoy the new rate offered? You must NOT take the money out yourself to move, but in the endless race to win new business, you can enjoy higher rates as a new transferred customer.
