Create More Expensive Products and Thank Me Later!
Mar 7th
If you’re involved in internet marketing, you probably see tons of high-priced products all the time. Seminars for thousands of dollars. Huge video courses for $997. That sort of thing.
Let me first say that I DO NOT charge that much for any of my current products. Nowhere near that much. But I want to let you in on a little secret that I have been discovering in that 6 months…
Selling a $97 product is no harder than selling a $7 product online.
Let that soak in for a minute. How much happier would you be if you sold a $97 product every single day versus selling a $7 product every day? I’m not trying to equate money with happiness here, but it makes a difference. Last summer I launched 2 products at the $97 price point. One of those products has taken off. I have 0ver 1,000 affiliates promoting it. I make sales nearly every single day. Think about that – that means nearly $100 in extra income every single day.
If you think it was difficult to create that product, market it, recruit affiliates, etc…. you’re dead wrong. The process was the same as when I was creating 10 page ebooks on little niche topics.
So decide what you would rather do: spend hours creating a $17 product, or pump the product up a little bit and have a great $97 product. Which product is worth your time?
For an example of the my product creation process, check out Product Creation with Skype.
There’s my tip. Take it or leave it. Go make some more money!
Best of luck,

Article Marketing Still Works
Dec 4th
I still write articles and submit to EzineArticles.com. Why? Because it still brings me quality traffic that converts. It still delivers high rankings in Google. It still works for my business. The articles I wrote 2 years ago are still driving traffic to my products, and they are still earning me more money.
Despite the fact that this technique has been around for years and is still effective… many internet marketers refuse to take advantage of it. Why? All I can figure is laziness. Sure, there are folks who focus exclusively on PPC or whatever and make tons of money. I can understand why they aren’t writing articles. But the people who are struggling to get started online, who haven’t earned a single dime, and who are begging for a silver bullet… these are the people who aren’t writing articles. And that makes me sad.
Why are so few people using article marketing? Because it involves work – actual, honest to god work. People hate writing. And they think making money online is the result of some special combination of WordPress plugins or secret Adwords methods. So they continue to search for that one secret they need to learn. If they spent that time writing a couple articles instead of reading Warrior Forum, they might make a couple bucks. But most beginners just don’t do it.
There’s no real “hot tip” in my post today. Just a reminder that this old fashioned way of driving traffic is still an option. It’s just as effective as it was years ago. My articles regularly get click-thru rates of 30% and higher. Some of them as high as 60%. That’s money in my pocket, and it should be money in your pocket too.
If you really need an action plan, go build an affiliate site promoting my product at RecordingStudioProfits.com. The commission is about $29/sale. It’s converting really well right now, and my affiliates are starting to make more and more every month. Once you’ve built a quick landing page to promote the product, submit a couple articles to EzineArticles.com. Topics could be anything related to recording studios, home studios, sound engineering, etc. This niche has been getting high CTRs for me on my articles. You should be able to earn some quick commissions. Then I’ll send you a commission check and a note that says, “I told you article marketing still works!”
Old Products Don’t Have To Die
Jun 29th
Have you ever created a product, watched it sell, then watched as it slowly faded away?Over time, a product can lose relevance and sales can dwindle. This is especially true in techy niches, which is where I will be revamping an old product in the next few days. Never fear – your sales don’t have to disappear. You can continue to renew your domain and breathe new life into a product. I’ll talk about that for a few minutes here today.
Around 2 years ago, I created a very popular product in a tech niche. It sold like fire, I made some money, and I ignored it for a while. Affiliates were driving tons of traffic to the page, and they still are today. But the product itself has lost some glitter and glory. It’s a bit outdated. And I was considering ditching the site so I could clean up my portfolio of sites. Terrible idea! Instead, I’ve researched and found everything I need to update the product and give it a brand new face. More >
