[VIDEO] Why I LOVE Email Marketing! – Daily Hustle #206

By admin / August 15, 2017

Welcome back to the Daily Hustle! Every day, I’m bringing you the latest news, information, resources and motivation to help you in your online home based business and today I want to talk about why I love email marketing. Watch TODAY’S VIDEO here:   You know, over the years, I’ve built a subscriber list – an email list of people who are interested in making money online… I’ve had this list for many, many years and it has brought me a lot of income. The way an email list can bring you income is, you have basically a captive audience that you can send either your products to or you can send affiliate products to. An affiliate product is where you get paid a commission for referring sales of a product and in this case I was very excited about this brand-new product that shows a very unique and little-known way to make money with drop shipping – drop shipping and ecommerce. It’s a form of online arbitrage that no one knows about and it’s brand-new and it’s very exciting! In fact, I’m going to be teaching it to my 16 year old son so he could start doing it …

Self Hosting Your Online Courses – Daily Hustle #201

By admin / August 6, 2017

In this video excerpt from the Passive Income Show, we talk about self hosting your online courses. If you’ve created an online course, it’s important to not only publish your courses on the big marketplaces, such as Udemy, Skillshare and others.

(because you don’t have to share that revenue with a marketplace!) Watch today’s video here:     So, if you’ve create an online course or digital product, then you should learn more about self hosting your courses because it is more profitable and often can be more profitable than publishing your courses on Udemy and other sites.

Watch today’s video here:     The world of online learning represents not only a breakthrough for students and anyone who wants to learn new skills and concepts, but also represents a fantastic opportunity for companies that already have existing audiences. The incredibly low cost of entry and low investment required to build out a quality online learning platform are now at your disposal and a company would benefit by adding a hugely profitable product (all digital) to their product line. The opportunities are huge and only going to get better! I have written and laid out a full-blown business plan for an online learning platform and would be happy to discuss it with the right interested parties.

What Is Clickfunnels & Why Do I Need It? Daily Hustle #199

By admin / August 4, 2017

You’ve probably heard of Clickfunnels or have seen ads about it. What is Clickfunnels? Clickfunnels allows you to easily create sales funnels. A sales funnel is the process a prospective customer goes through when they first learn about your business. (or at various later stages) This sales process is critically important because how you handle your customers can make a HUGE difference in your bottom line. Watch today’s video here:     A good example of having NO funnel is “brand advertising”, which is like when you watch a Pepsi commercial on TV. In that case, there is NO FUNNEL. Pepsi is simply creating “awareness” of their brand. By reminding you to buy and drink Pepsi, they are hoping you will buy some the next time you’re at the store. But an actual sales funnel uses proven sales psychology (from hundreds of marketing tests) to lead your prospect to becoming a customer AND to move them up an escalating series of purchases, upsells, bumps and even downsells. In any business the bulk of your income is made on the “back end”, not on the upfront sale. So, Clickfunnels is a revolutionary software tool that makes the creation of web-based sales …

If you’ve been following my videos for any length of time, (today’s video is below) you know I teach that you should get into PASSIVE INCOME business models.

Watch today’s video here:     As you add more and more passive income streams, you can begin to “stack” those new income streams on top of the previous ones and you can quickly build a massive, passive income!
