How To Make Money Online Part 3

    Affiliate Marketing and Using/Creating Private Label Rights (PLR) content: we’ve covered each of those business models this month so far with a number of posts on each. Product Creation is what I’d love to cover for you this week. Where would we be in life if there were no product creators? Would we not have a wheel and so transport? No power, fuel or food as we know it. And books, no books so less ease of access to education. Every business benefits from creating products, even service businesses. I’m not talking necessarily physical products – for the purposes of… Read More »How To Make Money Online Part 3

    Product Review: Editorial Calendar App

      So I have been checking out Editorial Calendars. Every now and then I need to regroup and be more organised. That means I need to look at the systems I use (assuming of course I’m using one!) and review how effective they are. I have a couple of editorial calendars on my desktop. The problem is these are not portable and often get out of date. I could load them into Dropbox or OneDrive or Evernote but I find I don’t work well that way. I also have an editorial calendar plugin on a couple of my websites which is… Read More »Product Review: Editorial Calendar App

      Error Opening Zip File

        TIP FOR THE DAY Just because you can make a big zip file doesn’t mean you should. If you’re delivering product then it’s worth knowing that the larger the zip file, the greater the chance of frustration for your customers. You see there’s a good chance that after they use their bandwidth to download your item, then attempt to open it with a tool like 7zip, win zip or stuffit, they will end up with a file corrupted warning or a “can’t open file” message. More than likely they’ll try to download your file agin, perhaps using a different browser,… Read More »Error Opening Zip File

        Product Creation Plan

          There are any number of businesses to be in online, whether that is stand alone or supporting your offline business. If your thing is creating informational or educational products for people then the trick is to have a definitive overarching plan. And we know any plan can be flexible so long as we’re heading to the end goal. What I have been guilty of doing is relying on inspiration. Something will trigger in my neo-cortex and I’ll immediately get to work on realising that thought into a product. Or, I’ll grab a notepad or PDF or mindmap of the trigger… Read More »Product Creation Plan

          Take Advantage of the Super Bowl

            I’ve been watching how Barb Ling came up with an idea, grabbed some of her templates and in four days had put together an actionable information product, set up the upsells, downsells, autoresponders and affiliate programs across three platforms. I was exhausted watching her from afar doing it! I was also stoked that with laser focus one CAN be productive and profitable, even with juggling health challenges and family pressures – this is a great case study. Oh, and  was able to look at an advance copy of the product, which I did at 1.30 a.m mind you, and it… Read More »Take Advantage of the Super Bowl

            Writer’s Block: How To Put It Behind You

              From time to time, I get writers block. For some reason, the ideas simply don’t come. There I sit just staring at the screen……..nothing happening. Or I just write something, delete it, write something else, delete it again. I suppose anyone who writes will get writers block at some point. Here are ways I manage to break through writers block. Change the Method If you work on your computer most of the time, use a pen and paper instead. Try moving to a different desk. Just write down some words, any words or brief ideas. By changing scenery and a… Read More »Writer’s Block: How To Put It Behind You
