Money mayhem with membership sites

I recently signed up for some of Jimmy D. Brown’s free and paid courses. I’ve got to tell you –this guy really knows how to take wet-behind-the-ears beginners and turn them into true internet money makers almost overnight!! Find out how simple and easy it really is by going here… Easy money making Membership sites

In fact, he’s provided me with an excerpt from his very popular course Membernaire – which teaches the easy way to creating recurring/residual income.

He says that all you need is the first article written and you can be in business. More about that in a moment.
But, first — I’ll share a few pages of the actual paid course.

Excerpt from Membernaire
by Jimmy D. Brown

One of the biggest problems that membership site owners face is getting content. No question about it, it’s a struggle for some people to keep cranking out quality information, while others find even getting started a challenge.

What I want to share with you today are some different WAYS to get information to share each week.
Before I share these with you, let me quickly talk about the “4 pillars” of information…

- You can WRITE IT YOURSELF. The obvious primary source of your content is that which you write yourself.

- You can INTERVIEW SOMEONE. Another option for one or more lessons is to interview other people in your field, both “experts” and “non-experts” alike.

- You can HIRE A GHOSTWRITER. You may also want to outsource the creation of some or all of your lessons to a professional ghostwriter who will anonymously write the lessons which you can then claim ownership and authorship to.

- You can PURCHASE PLR CONTENT. A final major pillar is to purchase a “private label license” to existing content which you may thereby alter and publish as your own.

In the future, I will have a COMPLETE LESSON on *each* of these four pillars to share lots of keys to success, vendor resources and other insights into using these sources for developing your content.

But today I’ll be going over some “other” options that few people really use (if they’ve even heard of them!)…

7  S.O.U.R.C.E.S   For First-Rate Content…As the so-called “King of Acronyms”, I use

S – STANDALONES
O – OUTLINES
U – UNIONS
R – RESOURCES
C – COLLECTIONS
E – EXCERPTS
S – SERIES

Let’s take a look at each of these in greater detail…
S.O.U.R.C.E.S.  #1  S – Standalones.

There are a variety of different kinds of “standalones” that you can offer in exchange for a “regular” lesson.
These are usually materials that are related to the topic of your FTM site and are used to enhance the content for a better understanding and application of your lessons.

A few examples include…

• Worksheets
• Templates
• Quizzes
• Calendars
• Checklists
• Planners
• Illustrations
• Mindmaps
• Tools
• Vendor List
• Documents (Legal, Business, Etc.)
• Forms
• Charts

And so forth. Anything that can be created to improve upon your existing content is an idea option here.
I recommend that you use one of these as a substitution for your regular lesson at least once every other month.

If that’s two pages of the course — imagine how much you’ll learn over the entire year’s worth of lessons.

The course is getting rave reviews from beginners and expert marketers alike. Check it out:

Here’s how to make a lot by doing a little!

Review of Small Reports Fortune
Created by Jimmy D. Brown

Call me a skeptic. I’ve seen it all online. You know what I’m talking about … the latest and greatest marketing “secret” to make you wealthy.

As you already know, I’ve forked over a fortune for more “sure shots” and “can’t misses” than I care to think about … because if I think about it, my head spins and I start staggerin’ around like a drunk!

Know what I mean?

I’ve heard all about how “this one’s different” and all that garbage. And, I’ve been disappointed time and time again. That’s why I was really surprised when I saw this course from Jimmy D. Brown.

Only after getting his course did I realize – this guy has the knack for simplifying the process in such a way, to makin’ money online that even a 3rd grader could do it! And as a bonus…he over-delivers, meaning he gives you way more than what you paid for!

However -

When he released a new course on creating e-books and special short reports, I thought, “What in the world could he possibly have to say on the subject that hasn’t already been said?”

I thought that was a fair question. And I must say that I’m impressed with the answer. Jimmy has put together a nice course here that teaches how to create small reports…

The case studies he provides at his site are attention-grabbers for sure -

• Over eighteen-thousand dollars in monthly residuals.
• Over thirty-thousand dollars in one day profit.
• Over one million dollars in total profit.

All from writing short reports.

But, as impressive as all that is, what really got my attention – and my endorsement – was the fact that he shows anyone (even rank beginners!) how to start from scratch and actually make a profit in just 7 days.
That means if right now you have no list, no web site, no ideas … nothing … you can still actually make money from this system in just 1 week. How cool is that?

(Of course, if you have some of those things, you can see results even quicker!)
Jimmy has even included as one of the bonuses, a 16-page report that offers a systematic checklist broken down into daily activities for you to complete.

Assignments appear in chronological order, completely cover the entire process of creating a small report from start to finish and refer to specific pages of the main manual and bonuses to provide complete, detailed instructions for completing each assignment.

I mean, it’s all broken down into easy-to-do steps! And, best of all, he shows his exclusive never-before-revealed “Six Phases Of A Six Figure Small Report Business” In other words, there’s a “small fortune” to be made with these “small reports”!

The course comes as 101-page manual in .PDF format, 7 downloadable .MP3 sessions, 4 exclusive bonuses in .PDF format and a set of video tutorials.

For the price, (which I think is ridiculously low) you’re getting a course in market research, a course in copywriting, a course in web creation, a course in marketing your product… I mean, it’s almost silly how thorough he is in this one product. It’s truly a comprehensive, step-by-step course.

Remember what I was saying about weeding through all the crap and getting to the true “diamonds” of all the products that I’ve bought over the years…this is one of the best!

The only thing that Jimmy doesn’t do is actually sit down and write the reports for you — but that’s understandable since the price is so, in my opinion, cheap. ;)

If you were to order today for example, you can literally be taking orders for you first small report in less than a week from now.

Here’s to having a great day!

PLR – What is it … and how do I make money with it?

There are numerous ways to make money online. But the two most effective ways are to do one of the following:

  1. Sell someone else’s product, also known as affiliate marketing, OR …
  2. Sell your own product.  This is, by far, much more lucrative.

We’re going to cover both methods in great detail, but we’ll concentrate on selling your own product first.  Now, before you start thinking, “I don’t have any products to sell,”  let me put your mind at ease. You don’t need to have any products.  We’re gonna show you where to get all the products you’ll ever need … enough for a lifetime!  Plus, it won’t cost any more than a dinner out at some cheap greasy spoon!

So grab a beer or coffee and get ready to discover how easy it’s gonna be to get a product of your very own and be making money with it on line. And get this – once it’s set up, you won’t have to do anything else because it’ll all be on autopilot.  Heck, you’ll be making money even while you sleep!

Ready? OK,  here we go ….

Just to be perfectly clear, you ARE NOT going to write, create, produce, think about, ponder, or pull your hair out trying to come up with any kind of ideas. Got it?  We’re gonna reveal the simplest, stupid-proof, and easiest way to get all the products you’ll ever need, without doing any work.

What is this simple, easy and fast way, you ask?

P.L.R.

You may not have considered this before, but if you have ever bought any kind of digital product online – software or an ebook, for example, – then that product came with some kind of ‘rights’ attached to it when you did so. In other words, in buying the product, you also purchased the right to use it in some way.

Most commonly, you would just get what are called ‘Personal User Rights’ with your purchase, so you can use it but you cannot, for example, sell it to someone else.

However, there are many products that you will buy online for which you are given additional rights with your purchase.

Some products are packaged with ‘Resell Rights’, meaning that you can use the product yourself and sell it to others to use.  Then there are Master Resell Products which give you the license not only to sell the product yourself, but also to pass on that right to sell the product to your customer.

Finally you have products that come with ‘Private Label Rights,’ or PLR.  This is content (most commonly articles, ebooks or reports) that can be used as is or changed and modified before usage, entirely as the purchaser desires, in compliance with the product’s PLR license.

Within this PLR product ‘category’ there are even a couple of sub-categories that are defined by the exact ‘levels’ of PLR rights granted by the product license.  For example, some PLR products permit the purchaser to resell the product but they cannot claim authorship when they do so.

However, the vast majority of PLR products you are likely to come across or buy come with totally unrestricted PLR rights, meaning that you can essentially do whatever you want with these products. For the remainder of this post, this is the kind of PLR product that we will be talking about.

So, with such unrestricted PLR rights to a particular ebook, special report or article, you can:

  1. Change the title of or headline above the product;
  2. Modify the content by adding to it, changing it or cutting pieces out wherever and however you want;
  3. Claim authorship or creation credits;
  4. Use the product  in any way you like – give it away, sell it from a sales page or a membership site, etc;
  5. Use it as website content or in a newsletter;
  6. Embed your own affiliate links within the finished product;
  7. Claim copyright to it.

From this, it should be clear that having unrestricted PLR rights to a product that you buy offers you a huge range of different opportunities and possibilities.

Indeed, it would even be possible to just take the product that you have bought, add your name to it and then publish it ‘as is’ without doing any more to it than that.

So, the key to using PLR effectively is to change it enough to make it your own.  Do that successfully and utilizing PLR materials can be your key to huge online profits.  Perhaps even more attractively, these will be profits that you should start to see very quickly!

We have been using PLR products in our own online businesses for quite some time now.  We do this because using PLR is one of the quickest ways to go from an empty piece of paper (or blank text editor) to profits for any online entrepreneur.

Did you get the gist of what was just laid out?  You can actually purchase a Private Label Rights product – for example, a book that was written by an expert – and you can change it around, take the author’s name off and put yours on it, and sell it as your own!  Pretty neat, huh?

So, we’re going to give you the keys to unlocking your own vault.  We will be delivering the complete blueprint to making money online in 7 easy-to-follow, step-by-step emails that’ll take you by the hand and guide you to making real money – all on autopilot.  We’ll send you a new email every 3 to 5 days!

Product Reviews Introduction

Wanna save $63,728.00? Then do as I say … not as I do!!

A review from the trenches that’ll get you to the good stuff without having to wade through knee-deep piles of crap, and wasting thousands in the process!

Making money on the internet is the easiest thing to do … or so all the online Guru’s tell me. So, I go to seminars, read a lot of how-to guides, buy so many courses I can’t even count how many. And the only thing I got, was more confused than when I started.

Why is it that every “making money on the internet” guru has all the “secrets” and is willing to “spill the beans” to only a few who respond within the next 30 minutes?

Why would any person who had the “secret” to amassing a fortune on the internet be willing to tell thousands and tens of thousands of complete strangers how to replicate their system to putting truckloads of money in their pockets … and risk losing the ability to continue to put money in their pockets due to the competition that’s gonna be created by letting in only a few (30 million or so) of their closest friends?

After spending thousands of dollars and ending up with such a huge collection of “shelf decorations,” that I had to rent a U-Haul to lug all that crap to the dump! That was quite an expensive dump run!

Listen, I’m not saying that ALL the information products that I purchased over the years were worthless. To the contrary, there were several that were quite good … actually, they’re quite exceptional.

Remember when I asked why anybody in their right mind would sell or give away the secret they used to make lots of money? Well, there is a method to their madness … and this is my theory:

  1. They know that 98% of all the people that purchase their courses and products will do absolutely nothing with it!
  2. They know that if they “accidently omit” certain elements of their “secret process” which will keep us from realizing the same results that they get.

    This way they can continue doing business as usual because they really aren’t giving away the farm here…they’re just giving us enough information to make us “think” that we’ve got the whole kit and kaboodle … you know, a little taste. (Now, I’m not sayin’ they all do this, but some definitely do! And remember, I wasted thousands on bogus crap!)

  3. They know that they can make ungodly amounts of money by selling this stuff to us…heck, they’re probably makin’ more money selling the stuff than they are doin’ it!!

So how do you know which course or product is the real deal?   That’s a great question!

And here’s the answer …

You don’t … until you buy the darned thing! Wanna know how I know about so many different home study courses, ebooks, DVD tutorials, and audio programs? Simple. I bought ‘em all!

You know the old saying “a fool and his money are soon parted”? That’s me!  :)

Anyway, I’m gonna give you guys all the good stuff without having to wade through knee-deep piles of crap, and throwing your hard-earned money away like a drunken sailor staggerin’ around in a cathouse!

There are hundreds of courses that make B-I-G promises and only a small handful that really do. I’m gonna be recommending several home study courses that are in my opinion, the best of the best, when it comes to making money on the internet.

But first, let me break down the entire process of internet marketing (making money on the internet) into manageable sections and provide you with the appropriate resource that’ll guide you to setting up and completing the action steps required to making money on the internet.

1.   Market research-you gotta find a group of people that have a burning desire to solve a common problem, that they as a group are having. Next you’ve got to identify what that problem is. Then you’ve got to find the solution to that problem. Make sure that your solution addresses the following criteria: Fast, Easy, Low cost, and delivered in simple to understand language.

2.  Product type-once you find the solution to the problem, you’ve got to decide on how you’re gonna get that solution to your customer. (in my experience, the best way is by creating, or have someone create an ebook that will be digitally delivered via email or website download page, to your group instantly after receiving payment.) This method is fully automated and free to deliver. Tip: PLR-Private Label Rights products are the best way to go-for further explanation on PLR, just go to my post on the subject.

3.  Opt in page-also known as a squeeze page is required to collect all of the names and email addresses of people that are responding to your advertising-we’ll get to what kind of advertising shortly.

4.  Free report page-this is the incentive you will use to get someone to “opt-in” by giving you their name and email address. The report will be a teaser to the product you are really selling. You need to have a “hook” in order to get someone to give you their info, and a free report is a great way to do just that!

5.  Autoresponders-an autoresponder is an email response system that automatically sends pre-written emails to your group right after they “opt-in” at pre-determined intervals and also redirects the customer to your sales page.

6.  Salesletter-A.K.A. your sales page. After your customer “opts-in” the autoresponder sends them a confirmation email that tells them to click on the link to confirm that they really want the special report. Once they confirm, the autoresponder then redirects them to the report download page which can also double as your salesletter. Anyway, the salesletter is one of the most important elements to your success in making money on the internet.

7.  Virtual agent pop up-this is a pop-up page the customer sees if they decide not to make the purchase and clicked away from your salespage. Before they actually leave your salesletter, this pop-up engages and lets the customer know that if they order right now, they’ll get a big discount.

8.  Order page-this is the page that your customer sees after reading your salesletter and makes the decision to buy what you are selling.

9.  OTO-this stands for One Time Offer, and it is used as an upsell. In other words, as long as the customer has their wallet open, they’re more apt to buy more if you ask them to. It’s a proven fact that when someone already made the decision to make a purchase, they remain in the buying mode for several minutes … you’ve got to ask for more of their money by offering them something else that is of more perceived value than the item they just purchased. By doing so, you’ve increased your income tremendously!

10.  Virtual agent pop up-this is a pop-up page the customer sees if they decide not to make the purchase and clicked away from your OTO. Before they actually leave your OTO, this pop-up engages and lets the customer know that if they order right now, they’ll get a big discount.

11.  OTO# 2-This is the second One Time Offer. Again, make sure you’re offering something of greater value than the original product and the first OTO. Remember, the more you ask for the more you’ll get!

12.  Virtual agent pop up-this is a pop-up page the customer sees if they decide not to make the purchase and clicked away from your OTO. Before they actually leave your OTO, this pop-up engages and lets the customer know that if they order right now, they’ll get a big discount.

13.  OTO #3-same as the second OTO. This should be the final OTO that you’ll want to have because any more than this your customer may get frustrated. After all, they’re trying to complete the order, and any more than three of these may begin to harass the customer.

14.  Virtual agent pop up-this is a pop-up page the customer sees if they decide not to make the purchase and clicked away from your OTO. Before they actually leave your OTO, this pop-up engages and lets the customer know that if they order right now, they’ll get a big discount. Again, this must be included on all of your OTOs. But please, no more than three OTOs and popups.

15.  Thank you page-this is the page your customer is directed to after they have completed the order. On this page you’ll also include a link to another product you are selling or to an affiliate partner. More on affiliates shortly.

16.  Autoresponder sequence-the final piece of your marketing system will be the follow up emails to everyone that purchases your product. This is different to the emails you are sending to the people that opt-in to get your free report. All of your emails should include links to other products or affiliate links.

Are you beginning to see how these different pieces of the marketing system flow from one element to the other? It’s pretty simple when you see it laid out like this, isn’t it?

Ok, so now let’s get on with the resources that I promised you. Bear in mind that there are 100’s of courses out there, and while I’ve bought most of ‘em, there are a few that I consider “worth every damned penny!”

DISCLOSURE: Do you see this big red disclosure warning?? (ok it’s really in black and white!)

I gotta make sure everyone sees this, especially folks like me-I wear soda bottles for glasses.

This is what the disclosure is all about … because I have been through tons of materials both good and bad, mostly bad.

I am making the following recommendations based upon my own experiences and therefore I am a little biased because these products have made my life a lot better by cutting out all the useless crap and providing the valuable information delivered to me in an easy to understand format that was also easy to implement with the insider secrets that provided the short cuts that actually work!

This in turn saved me countless weeks of tail chasing (What I mean by that is, chasing my own tail around like I was caught up in some kinda circle-jerk!) and sleepless nights by guiding me step-by-step until I was able to complete my first project in less than 30 days!

So, with that being said, I am endorsing these resources for the following two (2) reasons:

1. Their extreme value, simple to understand…even for me, easy to use, excellent support, and laid out in a step-by-step format that pretty much makes it idiot-proof!

2. Since I’m an affiliate of these resources, I’m gonna make a small bit of money when you invest in any of the products. (this is known as affiliate marketing-you’ll discover more about affiliate marketing if you “opt-in” to our newsletter which is located on the right side of this page.)

Listen, I’ve spent over $63,728.00 on…what I found out after making the purchases… was a lot of crap! And since I’m giving you the opportunity to avoid the H-U-G-E mistakes that I made, and pointing you directly to the resources that’ll have you up and running in as little as 30 days…would you really begrudge me the few pennies commission I’ll make as an affiliate?

Incidentally, after you invest in these products, you too can sign up as an affiliate…for free!

Hey…because I believe in giving each review plenty of space so I can express my true feelings about the individual product, I will be doing a separate post for each product review.

So, please check out the individual posts and don’t forget to leave comments about the products because I really want to know what you think of them, as well as any successes you experienced by utilizing the information you found here!

Now go check out the other posts under categories then under reviews, and I hope you’re having a great day!

First Things First – Getting organized in 3 easy steps that’ll put you on track to making real money on the internet!

You’re going to love this. I mean, seriously love it. Have you ever wished the “Big Dog” gurus would invite you over to look at their offices? See their schedules? And, explain HOW to make this whole working at home thing work?

Well, my favorite marketing mentor, Jimmy D. Brown, has done just that. His course, Homepreneur Habits, even has a picture of him in his PJs at his desk.

I enjoyed this course so much that I asked Jimmy if I could post an excerpt from it on my blog.  He agreed, so here it is.

Excerpt: Homepreneur Habits      Take a look over the shoulder of the Guru’s Guru here.
by Jimmy D. Brown

Hello, this is Jimmy D. Brown, author of the SR Zone™ Reports.

One of the questions that I get a lot from members of List And Traffic (as well as from my other customers and even subscribers) is this –

What does your home office look like?

There is a lot of interest in learning about the equipment I use, the setup of my office, my daily routine, etc. So, I’ve decided to create this report that I’m entitling, “Homepreneur Habits: How To Run A Successful Home Business.”

My goal for this series is to teach you some basic setup and operations for establishing and maintaining your own home business office. Which, ultimately, will translate into more efficiency, productivity and … profitability!

Whether you are a complete beginner or a seasoned pro, I think some of the insights that I’ll be giving you into how my own office and business is organized and operated will be beneficial to you in your own pursuits.

And, YES, just so you know, I really do work in my pajamas! In fact, as I’m writing this article I’m sitting here in my Ralph Lauren Polo pajamas and a white t-shirt.

You really can operate your own business in your pajamas. Or anything else for that matter. But, please, no file-sharing. I’ll take you at your word when you tell me you work in the same pair of holey underwear from college just to remind you of where you came from. :-)

Okay, back to the point. I’ve got this series divided into three parts …

Homepreneur Habits:  How To Run A Successful Home Business     How to create the perfect money making environment

Lesson #1: The PRINCIPLES Of A Successful Homepreneur

Lesson #2: The PARAPHERNALIA Of A Successful Homepreneur

Lesson #3: The PRACTICES Of A Successful Homepreneur

In our first lesson we’ll look at some guidelines or “rules” that I go by in organizing and operating my home office. Lesson two will cover specific equipment that I use in my daily operations. And in lesson three I’ll share how to organize your schedule for increased productivity and results.

I’ll be sharing lots of visuals as you’ll be given an “all access” tour of my own home office.

All of this begins in our next lesson.

 

To continue reading the entire report, just swing by and… Take a peek here.   and grab it while it’s still available.

Jimmy has written a lot of courses, but many of his loyal customers have said this is their absolute favorite.

Check it out:   Right here, right now

Thanks for reading,
