INTRODUCTION
As you read these words, there are millions of
people making a full time income on the internet,
working part time hours from the comfort of their
own home. These people set their own working hours,
live where ever they choose and have a ton of spare
time to spend with their family, friends and simply
do things they love to do.
Does this sound like something you would like to be
doing? Of course it is, why else would you have
bought this guide!
Well rest assured, you have made the right decision
by buying this guide. Because you are about to
learn everything you need to know to get started on
your internet business and be pointed in the right
direction towards online business success.
In this guide, you will not only learn the basics
of starting an internet business. But learn of the
many different online business models you can
choose, and even analyze over 50 successful online
businesses you can imitate!
But before we get started, just so you are as
existed as I am about doing business online.
Here are some of the main reasons most people
decide to start an online business:
• It takes very little money to start
Unlike a business in the “real world” , an online
business does not need a lot of start up money. All
you need as an idea, a domain name, internet access
and hosting…all of which can be had for under $100!
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
• You choose when you work
Who says you must work from 9 to 5 everyday? People
who are NOT Internet Business owners! The Internet
Business is the biggest proof why the statement
“working from 9 to 5” is no longer true. With an
Internet Business, you don’t have to wake up in the
wee hours of the morning so that you can get to
work by 9am, anymore. You can start work at anytime
since you are your own boss!
• Work from the comfort of your own home
Where you put your computer is where you will be
working! And since you’re going to be working from
home, you’ll be saving at least two hours of your
time each day by not having to travel to and from
your work place during rush hours when everybody
else is going to work or heading for home. That
means you’ll be saving at least 730 hours a year!
Wouldn’t you shudder at the thought of wasting 730
hours a year doing nothing productive?
• With the internet, the whole world is your
market!
By sitting in front of the computer, everyone in
the world is now within your three feet. You
leverage on free or low-cost software and hardware
and the Internet Infrastructure, all of which when
combined will give you leveraging power that far
exceeds any conventional business, allowing you to
achieve more and more with less and less work!
• You can fully automate your online business
If properly set up, some Internet Business models
can be fully automated
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
• No need to work 8 hours a days every single day
Once you can automate your Internet Business in
some way, you can use the time you saved to start
another Internet Business, improve your existing
business, or spend anyhow you like. You just spend
the time online checking your mail religiously,
promoting and expanding your business – all in
front of your computer. And there is absolutely no
need to spend even more than four hours online.
• Spend more time with family and friends
Owning an Internet Business gives you the privilege
to have more time to spend with your family, or
watch your children grow up. This is what most busy
parents crave for. If you are one of them, then you
will do well to seriously consider starting an
Internet Business.
• Your online business can be all about your
hobbies and passions
Now, this is my favorite reason for anybody wanting
to start an Internet Business! The Internet
Business allows your passion and dream to come to
life, which is also the most important component of
businesses of any kind.
• Online businesses have very little expenses
Believe it or not, some Internet Businesses can be
set up and running at zero cost, if not very low.
Other Internet Businesses can run with monthly
operational expenses so low that they are
negligible!
So, you can rest assured you won’t find me
recommending products or services that cost
thousands of dollars, the amount of money which you
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
may as well throw into the stock market if you’ve
got such a huge appetite for risk!
• You can have more that one!
Since the cost of setting up and running an
Internet Business is so low, and you can automate
their operations, you can operate multiple Internet
Businesses as a one-person Internet Business owner.
You don’t need to hire employees since your
Internet Business system is doing most of the job,
if not all. It works 24/7 for you. It won’t call in
sick. It won’t give any excuses. And it definitely
won’t blame you if it ever had worldly problems!
• The internet is a huge market (the whole world)
and it’s getting bigger as you read these words
According to the Computer Industry Almanac, there
were 934 million Internet users up to September
2004; there will be 1.07 billion in this year. Now,
is there any doubt that a 934 million-user pool is
a very attractive target given the leverage you
have on the Internet?
Given all the wonderful reasons for starting your
own Internet Business, I am sure that by now you
have already made up your mind whether starting an
Internet Business is for you. If you have decided
that it’s for you, then

BASIC FUNDAMENTALS
Let’s start this report with some definitions of
frequently used terms so that you’re clear as to
what I’ll be talking about later on in the coming
chapters. If you’re not familiar with computers and
Internet, then read this chapter carefully. I’ll be
explaining in simple English so I’ll strip off as
much technical jargons as I can so that any
ordinary person can understand complex and
technical subjects.
Let’s begin, shall we?
• What exactly is the internet?
The Internet stands for Integrated Network. The
Internet is a GLOBAL network of computers with
hundreds of millions of computers all over the
world all linked to each other. Your computer can
easily access to the Internet one of two ways:
• Through an Internet Service Provider (ISP). An
ISP doesn’t provide any type of content; it
just provides a connection to the Internet.
• Through an online service (e.g. America Online,
Microsoft Network, Prodigy, and so on). An
online service not only connects you to the
Internet but also provides content such as
daily news, stock quotes, football scores, and
information resources.
Once you have an Internet Access account, to log on
to the Internet you need to get your own PC
(Personal Computer) with a modem. Most new
computers come ready with a built-in (internal)
modem.
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
Then all you need to do to access the Internet is
to connect your home phone line to the modem, and
dial an Internet Access telephone number provided
by your ISP. A program in your computer will enable
you to access the Internet once you dial in.
When you are connected to the Internet, you can
easily send digital files and information to
another computer in the network within minutes. The
faster your PC and Internet connection is, the
faster you can send your files.
With your computer connected to the Internet, you
can easily and efficiently share information with
other users FROM AROUND THE WORLD within seconds or
minutes. If you can share information easily and
efficiently – you can easily market your products
or services to others and make money in the process
at a very low cost!
You can set up a system on the Internet to send
marketing information to your prospects 24 hours a
day, 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year, because the
Internet doesn’t sleep, and its users are all over
the world, each living in a different time zone!
This system consists of primarily your Website and
E-mail.
• What is a domain name?
Basically, your domain name is the internet address
of your website, it looks something like this:
www.yourname.com
Once the domain name has been selected and
registered, no one else can register the same
domain name just as there can never be two houses
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
with the same address. Your domain name can also be
your Internet Business name.
• What is a website?
A website can act as a brochure or sales letter but
in electronic form, viewable only in your computer.
A website can also act as your physical business
premises.
Your website displays your products in the form of
photos or illustrations and words that describe
what it is. People can browse your website for the
products you carry from any PC with an Internet
Browser without having to go there in person to see
them.
• What is a web browser?
An Internet Browser allows your visitors to view
your website.
• What is email?
An e-mail is mail in electronic format and hence,
Electronic Mail. Instead of sending a letter to
your friend by writing it on a piece of paper,
putting it into an envelope and sticking a stamp on
it before going to the post office to post it, you
compose an e-mail in your E-mail program and when
you’re ready to send, you click on the button SEND.
• What is web hosting?
The host of your website is the server. Your
website sits on the hard disk of a big computer
called a server that is connected to the Internet
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
24 hours a day. The server can also host other
websites simultaneously.
• What is an autoresponder?
An Autoresponder is a computer program that acts
like your answering machine for e-mail messages
from your friends. You can write out your message
in advance, like the following:
Once you’ve turned your Autoresponder on at your email
address, anyone sending e-mail to your e-mail
address will automatically receive your message
above – without any need for you to send it
manually!
A Sequential Autoresponder is a computer program
that will AUTOMATICALLY send out MORE THAN ONE prewritten
e-mail address that has been set to followup
with different messages in sequence. You can
specify the interval between each pre-written
messages and as many e-mail messages as you wish.
• What is an FTP program?
FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol. An FTP
Program enables you to deliver digital files to
your website’s host directly from your own computer
through the Internet so that your website can be
ready to be viewed by your visitors. This program
is also enables you to edit and delete existing web
pages and images.
Here is an “INTERNET DICTIONARY” to help you
understand more about the internet:
The following commonly used short definitions give
you a general idea of the many resources and tools
currently available.
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
BBS – stands for bulletin board system. BBSes work
just like the corkboards you see in hallways,
kitchens or recreational rooms in almost every
business. You can pick up a message of interest or
leave your own.
cybernaut – you are one if you use the Internet
often.
download – transmission of information from a
source on the Internet directly into your computer.
e-mail – the electronic mail is probably the most
used feature on the Internet. You can send out
friendly letters instantly.
encrypted message – a message that has the
scrambled so that no one other than the desired
recipient, who can unscramble the message, can read
it.
FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions.
flame – to send someone a nasty note.
file – computer documents that you work with. You
can send files over the Internet to just about
anywhere in the world.
java – a computer programming language for the
distribution of digital information. Because Java
can “talk” to any computer operating system, it is
ideal for something so wildly diverse as the
Internet.
log on – connecting to the Internet.
lurk – reading and understanding the posted
messages in a newsgroup before posting your own.
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
mailing list – an e-mail list of people who want to
get information about a specific subject (e.g.
person, place, products, services, etc.).
nettiquette – from net and etiquette, it simply
means good manners on the Internet.
newsgroup – a place where individuals post and
retrieve messages, except that these messages
concern a single topic. You can read or join with
your own news, views and comments.
snail mail – term referring to the slowness of the
postal system compared to the speed of e-mail.
URL – Uniform Resource Locator. Also known as
website address

The Simple And Easy Way To Start
An Online Business, Step-By-Step
Ok, now that you know the basics of the what the
internet is I can teach you the simple basics of
starting your very own online business! So lets get
started:
Setting your online business goals:
The process of setting goals and objectives and
then designing strategies for attaining them is
essential when starting an Internet Business. So,
you end up with what is called a business plan.
To set specific goals for your new business, first
ask yourself this question:
Why do I want to start an Internet Business?
We already covered this in the early chapter, which
is why you’re reading on! Okay, next question:
What product or service can I offer to the people
on the Internet?
OR
Do I have a product or service that people are
looking for on the Internet?
To save you some research work, I’ve included the
list of Top 17 Best-selling items / categories on
the Internet below:
1. Clothing
2. Toys and Video Games
3. Electronics
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
4. Computer Hardware
5. VCDs / DVDs
6. Books
7. Greeting Cards
8. Home Furnishing
9. Jewelry
10. Health
11. Travel
12. Automobile
13. Real Estate
14. Online Trading
15. Music
16. Food
17. Sports
When identifying a need, doing market research is
part of your homework. One of your first steps
should be to find out what it means to do business
online and to determine the best ways for you to
fit into the exploding field of e-commerce
(electronic commerce). The more information you
have on the following aspects of the Internet, the
more likely you are to succeed in doing business
online:
Competition: Familiarize yourself with other
existing Internet Businesses that are already doing
what you want to do.
Customers: Research the various kinds of customers
who shop online and who might visit your site.
Environment: Explore the special language and style
of online communication – in other words, know the
culture of the Internet. If you are not yet
familiar with the culture of the Internet, then the
best way to learn is to subscribe to e-zines
(electronic magazines) and newsletters for your
reading.
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
Write all your ideas down on a piece of paper. Ask
yourself, “What do I have that people are looking
for on the Internet?” Take your time. This is not
supposed to be an overnight activity. So, don’t be
surprised if you take days. Taking your time and
doing a thorough market research on the Internet
beats jumping onto an opportunity at first sight.
What if you don’t have any products to sell?
I would like to take this chance to get a HUGE MYTH
out of the way. If you think you NEED to have a
product to sell to make money – then you’re dead
wrong, really.
You’ll be glad that you’re wrong after I tell you
this. You still CAN make money without having to
create your own product. And there are several
instances you DON’T NEED to HAVE a product to sell
at all in order to make money!
How?
Quite simply, you can either be a referral to earn
a commission or sell advertising spaces on your
website or newsletter. That, my friend, is just a
speck of a dust. There are still many other ways
you can make money on the Internet WITHOUT having
to have your own product to sell.
Furthermore, you can either:
• Buy Resell Rights to someone else’s product and
start selling it on the internet. All you would
need to do is buy resell rights to an info
product, upload it to the internet and drive
traffic to it via Google Adwords…and there’s
your 1 hour online business. You could also…
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
• Sign up as an affiliate and promote someone
else’s product (this is even easier than the
first business). All you’d need to do is sign
up to an affiliate program and drive traffic to
your affiliate link…Again, you can use Google
Adwords to drive traffic to the link.
This is good news to those who are already sweating
over the thought that of needing to create or have
their own product to sell to make money! However,
the 10 Step approach to setting up your own
Internet Business presented in this chapter gears
more towards “selling products or services”
Internet Business Models.
Picking an online business model
Already decided what you have in store for your
customers? Good!
The next thing to do on the list is to choose the
right Internet Business Model. Now this is crucial
to your Internet Business success. The Internet
Business Model has to be right for the type of
product or service you’re offering to your
customers. When choosing the right Internet
Business Model, you will want to take the following
factors into consideration:
• Profit Margin – the higher the profit margin,
the better.
• Delivery – can be easily delivered to your
customers via a system.
• Shipping Cost – as low as possible or even
none.
• Marketing – different Internet Business Models
have different marketing strategies. Choose the
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
model that has the best marketing strategy for
your product or services.
To date, there are 19 low-cost, high-profit
Internet Business Models on the Internet to choose
from.
Identify your target market
The inside secret is to search in search engines
(such as Google and Overture) with keywords related
to your product or service to find out if many
websites, newsletters and community groups focus on
this interest.
Get a domain name
I have already explained to you what a domain name
is. You also know that your website address can
ALSO be your Internet Business name.
You will want to take out another new piece of
paper again to write down ALL the keywords related
to your Internet Business. You see, you want your
domain name to:
• be short and easy to remember (and catchy,
too!),
• be relevant to the product or service you’re
selling,
• include keywords of your product or service to
improve search engine rankings.
For example, if you want to sell a product teaching
people how to break-dance, then you will want to
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
start writing down all the keywords related to
break-dance.
For starters, write 100 keywords. What next, you
ask? Write some more! Write 200 or 300 if you have
to. The more keywords, the better. That is because
this is a one-off activity. And remember that you
will be using this domain name for a very long
time, if not forever. Now, don’t even get lazy.
Okay, I’ll offer you some food for thought.
Are you parent to any child? If you are not, then
imagine you are one right now. You and your spouse
have a child for the first time. You and your
spouse would want to give the best name to your
child, right? Of course you both would! You and
your spouse would brainstorm on giving your child
the best name. “How about John?” “Aw, John is too
common a name!” “Then how about …?” “I think the
name…” and finally, your child has a name to be
addressed by.
When brainstorming on your child’s name, you and
your spouse consciously or unconsciously know that
giving your child the best and meaningful name is
VERY important because your child will be living
with that name from cradle to the grave.
So, on the same token, why would you not think the
same when brainstorming on a good domain name? This
is your Internet Business. You need to nurture and
grow it during its infancy stages before it rewards
you. Are you not going to give it your best
attention, too?
I hope that woke you up. Now, back to the keyword
activity…
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
With the help of the list of keywords you have
written down, you will find it easy to get a domain
name that fulfills the 3 guidelines stated above.
In the same example, you would probably come up
with a domain name like www.howtobreakdance101.com.
Next, check whether the domain name has been
registered or not. If the domain name has been
registered by someone else, you will have to use
another domain name. So, maybe you’ll think of
using www.lordofthefloor.com for a domain name.
When brainstorming on a good domain name, be sure
to come up with at least a few names in case the
domain name you wish to use is already taken.
Remember me telling you that there can never be two
houses bearing the same address?
Another thing you have to consider is the various
kinds of domain names on the Internet. So you will
have to choose carefully.
Below are some of the common ones:
• .com - stands for commercial / community. The
most overused domain entity on the Internet.
Recommended for your Internet Business.
• .net - stands for network.
• .org - stands for organization. A lot of online
communities use this domain entity.
• .gov - stands for government. All government
web sites use this domain entity.
• .biz - stands for business. Recommended for
your Internet Business.
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
The next thing to do is find a web host. Any
business needs a place to call home. If you run a
conventional business, you have to rent space in an
office or shopping complex. In the case of setting
up an Internet Business, you need to set up a
virtual space. You do so by creating a website and
finding a host for your site. A web host company
that makes your site available 24/7 (24 hours a
day, 7 days a week) by maintaining it on a Web
server. I have covered this topic with you briefly
in the second chapter.
When sourcing for a good web host, you want to make
sure that your host has a fast connection to the
Internet and can handle large numbers of
simultaneous visits (also known as hits) that your
website is sure to get eventually. You also want to
make sure that your web host offers a variety of
related services, including some or all of the
following:
• E-mail addresses. You’re like to be able to get
several e-mail addresses for your own. Many web
hosts also give you special e-mail addresses
called autoresponders (discussed earlier in
Chapter 2).
• Domain name. You and I have just covered this
subject above.
• Web page software. Some web hosting services
include web page authoring / editing software.
• Multimedia / CGI scripts. Some web hosting
services have the ability to serve complex and
memory-intensive content such as RealAudio
sound files or RealVideo video clips. They also
let you process web page forms that you include
on your site by executing computer programs
called CGI scripts.
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
• Shopping Cart software. Most organizations
prove you with Web page forms that you can fill
out to create sale items and offer them in an
online shopping cart.
• Site statistics. Site statistics give you an
idea of how many visitors you have received.
• Shopping and electronic commerce features and
more.
Make a simple and professional website
Since you’re into business, the purpose of your
website is to SELL. Nothing else! That’s because
YOUR WEBSITE SHOULD HAVE ONE MAIN FOCUS.
Nope, it’s not selling dozens or hundred of
products. Nope, it’s not links to several different
affiliate programs and NOPE, certainly not a link
to Yahoo.com.
Doing any of the above just confuses your visitor,
thus decreasing your chances of converting him or
her into your customer.
If you’re selling a product or service, it should
be clear what ONE action you want them to take.
They would either:
• Buy your product or service
OR
• Don’t buy.
But are you going to let them go away just like
that? Of course N-E-V-E-R!
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
So, you need to get your visitors to leave their email
address and other essential information for
follow-up increases your chance to help you make a
sale because the fact is that most people don’t buy
on first contact.
To do this, you write a compelling sales letter for
your product and post it to your website. You can
add images of your product, testimonials from happy
customers, and other relevant images. The focus of
your website is the sales letter.
Now, let’s talk about the layout of your web page.
Your main text color should be black on a white
background. You can have other colors such as blue,
red and gray on your website, but the background
behind the text should be white. The color of your
main text should be black. No other exceptions!
That is because this is the easiest format to read.
You are in business so dress your site in a
business manner.
On the technical side, you can choose from three
methods to create your own web pages:
• Do it yourself (D.I.Y.) – if you are well
versed in using web page tools such as
Macromedia Dreamweaver and Microsoft FrontPage
to create your web pages then this option is
probably the best for you.
• Hire A Free Lancer, Professional or Internal
I.T. Team - if you don’t know how to create web
pages, you may want to consider hiring
professional help as learning how to create
your own web pages can be time-consuming. While
it can incur high professional fee, this option
can be your best value for money in the long
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
run. However, this option should be filtered
out if you’re on a strict budget.
• Go to Solobis – if the above two methods are
not for you – don’t sweat over it. This suite
has been set up to remove not only the
technical barriers but also eliminate risks for
aspiring but clueless Internet Entrepreneurs at
an affordable price. Besides having over 400
beautiful web site templates to choose from,
this suite provides other Internet Business
tools and services such as Sequential
Autoresponders, Pop-Up Window Generator,
Mailing List Broadcaster, Article Generator,
Killer Sales Letter Generator, Headline
Generator, and many more to get you starting
your Internet Business quickly! If you are on a
strict budget, then all the more you must go to
this suite to make your dreams of earning
income from the Internet come to life!
Create a unique selling proposition (USP) for you
product / website.
Find ways to make your business stand out from the
crowd. Make yourself and your web site unique in
some way and providing things that others don’t
offer. They can be as tangible as half-price sales,
contests, seasonal sales, freebies or reports. They
can also make your business site higher in quality
than the rest.
That is important because there really is no
purpose of your Internet Business to exist if you
have a million visitors coming to view your site
but too few of them actually become your customers
(a conversion rate of less than 1% is rated poor).
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
Here’s what you can do to create your own USP. Take
a brand new piece of paper and write, “I know how
most…” Then, half-way down the page, write “Well,
what I do is…”
The purpose of this activity is to know how most
businesses in your field are in the first place and
then you write what tells you and your Internet
Business apart from them. This will take a while to
do. Checking on your competition’s USP is part of
the activity, too.
Next, you will want to write out many phrases or
sentences. This can take days but it will be worth
it for your Internet Business in the long run. Once
you have just the right phrase, that will be your
USP which you will use to separate you from all of
the competition. Now, that is what I call UNIQUE!
Write sales copy that gets results!
Your website must be treated as a sales letter, not
a brochure. That’s because brochures don’t sell.
Let me repeat – BROCHURES DON’T SELL.
Brochures just inform theirs viewers of a product
or service. But they won’t help you make even a
sale (unless that is really what you want but hey,
I have yet to meet anyone who wants to be in
business to lose sales!).
Your sales letter consists of primarily:
• Headline
• Sub-headline
• Benefits vs. Features
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
• USP
• Free / Special Offer
You have to find a headline that will grab the
attention of your visitors or else they will not
read the rest of your sales letter. This is very
crucial – the headline will make or break your
sales letter!
Assuming, you’re selling an instructional video on
how to play soccer professionally, so you must come
up with an attention-grabbing headline for your
product like the following:
“Learn To Play Soccer Like A
Pro In Just 7 Days”
Visitors especially Soccer enthusiasts (but not
pros) would definitely stop dead in their tracks
and read on to learn more about your product.
Notice the upper-cased and highlighted words.
WARNING: Do not give false promises or mention
something you cannot or don’t intend to deliver in
your sales letter in the attempt to get your
customers to buy from you. This is important
business practice regardless of any form of
business you are doing. For instance, if this
product cannot guarantee its students to be a
Soccer professional in a week, then the product
should be named otherwise or not make into the
lights of the day.
The sub-headline will encourage your visitors to
read further.
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
The sub-headline will give a spark of hope to
Soccer player wannabes who couldn’t help but think
that their handicap is stopping them from
performing like an Ace on the Soccer field and
therefore encourages them to read further.
Since you’ve already got them interested in reading
your letter, the rest of your sales letter must
tell your potential buyers about the benefits and
features of your product. For instance, you can say
that your product is the best out there (assuming
that is true). You can back this fact by throwing
in testimonials from happy buyers who benefited
from your product, and testimonials are indeed
powerful.
If you have a free offer that can help you increase
the chance of making a sale, don’t hesitate to
give! In this case, you can give a free one-minute
preview clip of your instructional video for your
visitors to watch. Should your visitors decide that
this is for them, they would buy from you.
Now, isn’t that awesome?
Set up an online payment processor
If you sell something that you own or have the
rights to sell, then you need to have a Credit Card
Payment Processor. Credit Card Payment Processors
process credit card payments for you and sends you
the proceeds on a fortnight basis via wire transfer
to your local bank account.
Some reputable Credit Card Payment Processors you
must check out are:
• 2CheckOut - http://www.2CheckOut.com
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
• Clickbank - http://www.clickbank.com
• iBill - http://www.ibill.com
• PayPal - http://www.paypal.com (this is the
best one)

Marketing your online business
Now is the time to market to your target market.
Each Internet Business Model is different.
Therefore, you don’t market each and every one of
them the same way. The truth is, not all Internet
Business Models depend on a good search engine
listing. In fact, some of them are not designed to
be listed by search engines at all!
That is simply because each Internet Business
Models have different objectives and set up. That
also means they require different marketing
strategies and tactics to make it work.
Not knowing the different Internet Marketing
approaches that are available for different
Internet Business Models can be expensive. It will
result in spending more time, money and effort than
is necessary for promoting your Internet Business.
Here, I share with you seven main ways to generate
traffic and get to your target market:
Tracking sales and visitors to your website
The purpose of the last step is to determine your
conversion rate of visitors into customers. This
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
can be easily done if your web host provides a site
statistic.
A good conversion rate from a Killer Sales Letter
is 1 – 3% (depending on the price of the product).
In other words, for every 100 targeted prospects
who visit your site, at least one of them will buy
your product or pay access to your service. If the
conversion rate is higher than 2%, then you are
doing very, very well with your Internet Business!
On the other hand, if your sales letter’s
conversion rate is less than 1%, then you will need
to take quick action to make your site sell more
effectively. You may have to do more compelling
copy writing, change the layout of your web pages
or simply get a better and more attention-grabbing
headline (which is so vital that it can make or
break a sale!).
Whatever you need to do, you have to increase your
conversion rate from poor to excellent!
To track visitors, you can subscribe to counter
services if your web-hosting doesn’t have a site
statistic feature built in. To track sales, check
your Credit Card Payment Processor.

You Can Still Make Money...
“What if I don’t have what it takes to create my
own product? What if I can’t source for other
people’s product to sell?”
“Can I still make my money from the Internet?”
I heard you and the answer is a resounding YES. You
can still have a business online even if you have
NO products to sell. No one should question this
possibility since people are doing this everyday.
“But how do they do that?” you wonder. In the last
chapter, you have found that the 10 steps have a
lot to do with setting up a product-sellingorientated
business. In this chapter, you will find
out how people can still make their money even
without selling a product.
The concept
Imagine you own your daily newspaper. How do you
earn a lot of money from it? Selling them to your
readers for a dollar or less each isn’t going to
profit you. So how are you going to profit from
selling your daily newspaper?
Selling advertisement spaces in your content?
Precisely!
Congratulate yourself if you’ve guessed the answer
correctly. Give yourself a knock on the head if you
have not! Okay, I was joking about that one but you
can’t be serious ALL the time, can you? Anyway,
we’ll move on with the subject.
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
Quite simply, the more people read your newspaper,
the more money you can charge for your
advertisements.
The concept works the same for Internet Business.
However, when you operate an Internet Business, you
have the following advantages that you won’t have
if you run a conventional business:
• You don’t have to invest a lot of money and
effort into your Internet Business as opposed
to conventional business.
• You don’t need to deal with the delivery of
your newspapers to reach to your readers on
time every day.
• Publishing a newspaper is something that is
beyond the reach of any individual together
with the rewards that come with successful
publication.
• The risk in conventional business is simply too
high compared to Internet Business.
Publish your own news letter
With the Internet as your medium to deliver to your
subscribers, you can publish your own newsletter
daily.
If you follow the right strategy, you don’t even
have to write the content or even a SINGLE word if
you wish, and your subscribers wouldn’t mind! (I’m
serious!)
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
STEP 1 Choose a topic
Since you will be writing your own newsletter, it
is best that you choose a topic that is non-time
sensitive. This will give you a lot of freedom in
selecting your content since you’re not going to
send out the latest news such as the latest results
on the American Idol (as I write this, it’s the
final showdown between Bo Bice vs Carrie Underwood
and by the time you read this, I guess you already
know who the winner is), terrorist attacks, and the
like. Examples of non-time sensitive topics are
jokes, insults, recipes, short stories, horoscopes,
tips, and ideas.
Another great advantage of choosing a non-time
sensitive topic is that you can work ahead at a
time. For example, you can start compiling the
content for the first 30 days in one day.
STEP 2 Format the newsletter
Assuming you’re going to send out short stories to
your subscribers, how many stories are you going to
send daily? Perhaps two or three short stories a
day.
More short stories (or other content) give you more
spaces for advertisements but this also means that
you’ll have to work harder in creating or sourcing
for more content.
STEP 3 Look for your content
You need to source for content which are copyright
and reprint free. Search engines and article
websites are good places to start. You can also
source for content from article base web sites like
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
ezinearticles.com as long as you include the author
bylines.
If you are an expert on the topic, you can choose
to write. However, bear in mind that it can also
consume your time and effort in a long run.
You can also receive contributions from your loyal
subscribers and publish them with a mention of
their help. They’ll be happy to help you out.
STEP 4 Set up an auto responder
You need to set up a proper system to deliver your
newsletters to your subscribers. Your auto
responder must have the features that will make
your daily routine of sending out, maintaining your
subscriber list and adding new subscribers as
automated as possible.
You can get a good auto responder system from the
following:
• Aweber
• Getresponse
STEP 5 Create your website
While this is optional, the most important
component of the “Freebie” Internet Business Model
is your newsletter. However, creating web pages can
also open to other possibilities of making money to
you in the process as you can sell advertising
spaces in those pages.
When setting up your business following this
Internet Business Model, you will want to think and
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
plan through this step carefully as to whether you
would want to create web pages or not.
STEP 6 Get subscribers
Here are some ways to get subscribers:
• Forwards or Word of Mouth – if your subscribers
like your publication a lot, they’ll likely
tell their friends about it. This can be the
most powerful viral tool to spread the good
name of yourself and your newsletter.
• Buy subscribers – you can buy subscribers from
3rd parties selling subscriber names and e-mail
address. Some of them are:
• Writing Articles – when you submit your free
articles related to your topic to article
directories such as ezinearticles.com,
goarticles.com or articlecity.com, this gives
you permission to tell your readers about your
newsletter. You can tell briefly about yourself
and explain how your readers can subscribe to
your newsletter.
• Placing a subscription form on your web site –
this enables you to convert visitors and
passer-bys to become your subscribers. From the
view of conversion rate, this method is better
compared to requesting your visitors to send a
blank e-mail to your auto responder address.You
need to be able to make everything as
convenient as possible for your prospects
because they can very well be your customers.
• Submit your newsletter to newsletter
directories – Ezine directories are great
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
places to promote your ezine and get targeted
subscribers. Be sure to write a short
compelling description of your ezine before
submitting them to the ezine directories. The
following is a list of directories where you
can submit your ezine. You can search for more
ezine directories in search engines.
While this is only the tip of the iceberg, there
are still many more ways to gain subscribers.
STEP 7 Start making money!
This is how you make your money (probably the most
interesting step of all steps!).
You source for advertisers who are interested in
advertising in your daily newsletter. Like any
daily newspaper, the more subscribers to your
newsletter, the higher the advertisement rate you
can charge simply because a lot of people are going
to see the advertisements.
You can begin sourcing for advertisers the moment
you have 20,000 subscribers or more. Assuming you
have 20,000 subscribers, you can charge your
advertisement rate $20.00 a day. And since you have
different areas of advertising space in your
newsletter, your advertising rate can also be
variable.
Your advertisers make their own advertisements.
Therefore, there is no need for you to do that work
for them. You simply copy and paste the ads into
the allocated spaces in your newsletter and send
them out.
IMPORTANT!
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
When you have no one buying advertising space in
your newsletter or have yet to reach 20,000
subscribers before sourcing for advertisers, you
can:
• Secure the spots with advertisements of
products you’re selling (if any) until you get
an advertiser, or
•  Create an advertisement stating that it’s
vacant for other advertisers. This way, you can
attract the attention of potential advertisers
and hopefully they will contact you to place
their advertisement in your newsletter for a
fee

How To Start A Business Selling
Other Peoples Products (As A
Reseller)
While there are several types of Internet Business
Models to choose from to start, I would like to
share with you some important gem information on
how to start and run your online business as a
reseller.
Before we go any further, let us discuss whether
this business is for you or not.
This type of online business is for you if:
• You do not have your own product.
• You do not have what it takes to create a
product from scratch as it demands a degree of
talent, skill and expertise in any field.
• You just do not want to create your own product
or simply do not have the time for it!
You will do well to consider this type of online
business if you match one or more of the above
statements. Now are you ready to find out how you
can start your own resell rights business? If yes,
then that is awesome. Read on!
What Is This Business Model All About?
Generally, you sell product(s) with resell rights
and keep 100% of the profit. On top of that, the
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
products you sold have affiliate links that can
create back-end profits for you thus making
residual income with no effort on your part.
What Is A Reseller?
A reseller buys a product, sells it and keeps 100%
of the profits to him or herself. This is in
contrary to being an affiliate whereby an affiliate
sells other people’s products for a commission.
What Are Resell Rights?
Resell rights allow one to resell the product and
keep 100% of the profits with which without it, one
is prohibited from selling the product to another
person.
What Do I Need?
To start your online resell rights business, you
will need to have a high-quality product with
resell rights that can be customized. The product
can be in the form of an E-book, software or even
templates.
The first thing you should do is look for a product
with resell rights to sell to your customers. When
looking for one, you will want to take the
following factors into consideration:
• Resell rights – the product must have resell
rights in order for you to sell and keep 100%
of the profits. If the product has no resell
rights, you cannot use it for your reselling
purpose.
• High in quality – a poor quality product will
hardly make you any sale let alone back-end
profits.
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
• Demand – are people seeking for information or
solutions found in that product you are
prospecting?
• Good sales letter and follow-up e-mails – if
the principal’s sales letter and follow-up emails
do not persuade you to purchase his or
her product then it is palpable that the result
will be poor for you too as a reseller as you
will also be using the principal’s sales
letter.
• Rare or uncommon – it pays to do a lot of
research when starting your resell rights
business. You must find out if the product is
not over-saturated in the net market. If it is
then your chances of selling the product are
slim.
• Credibility and reputation – is the author a
respected person? You can easily conduct a
background check by typing his or her name in
search engines and see the results.
• Back-end profits – find out how you can earn
residual income without much effort on your
part in the long run.
• Money-back guarantee – while I can actually
omit this factor for it goes without saying
most of the time, this is what you should look
out for. High-quality products usually have 90-
day money back guarantee. In case you
discovered that the product is not for you or
fail to make any sale in the first 90 days, you
still have a chance to get your investment
refunded.
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
Here are some useful advices to keep in mind from
my experience:
So, Where Are The Best Places To Source For Them?
Sourcing for the latest high-quality products with
resell rights means doing some home work on your
part. The best places to look for are:
• One-page Websites selling the latest product –
you will want to pick the latest and hot
product that there is a huge demand for,
preferably not too old (1-2 years old).
• Active membership web sites dealing in giving
products with resell rights – there are
membership web sites that provide E-books and
software with resell rights on a regular basis.
You would know if the membership website
contains the latest hot products by checking
whether the webmaster sources for them often or
not.
NOTE: If you want to get the resell rights to 8
profitable products with killer sales letters and
graphics all at once. Just go to

check it out!
Setting Up Your Resell Rights Business
By now, I am going to assume that you have already
picked a high-quality product with resell rights
that you can customize it for back-end profits.
This simply means purchasing the product yourself
first. You will then work your business plan to
cover your initial investment and later profit from
it.
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
The moment you get your hands on the product, what
do you do? Read it! Use it!
Remember I said that they are called products and
not parcels? Sure, you do, if you have been reading
up until now.
I expect that since you are having a product with
resell rights, it should also come with resell
materials.
Resell materials usually include:
• Web pages – Killer Sales Letter, Purchase Page,
Thank You Page
• Images – your product (most important!), and
miscellaneous
• Auto Responder letters – the e-mail follow ups
you use for customers who opt into your followup
mailing list.
Since most of the job of selling the product and
convincing your prospects is going to be done by
your sales letter, you play your role very similar
to a referrer or affiliate.
Using ingenious concepts, you refer targeted
prospects to your sales letter and if it is a good
and persuasive sales letter, it can produce a
conversion rate of 1 to 3%, hopefully more!
Marketing Your Product
With all the technical issues taken care of, your
web site ready and your product available for sale,
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
you will need to promote your web site together
with the product you are selling.
Here are some effective ways you can practice for
good results in your sales and back-end profits
especially for this particular Internet Business
Model:
• Create an Affiliate Income Opportunity – you
can open an income opportunity to people who
are interested in making money without having
to create a product of their own through
affiliate programs and directories. So long as
you provide them a hefty commission of 50% to
75%, they would not mind selling on your
behalf.
• You can establish a Joint Venture with E-zine
Publishers as long as you provide them a chance
to earn a percentage of your sales, say. 50 –
75%.
• You can comb the Internet for quality
prospects. Membership web site owners and
webmasters of your niche product are good
targets. Send them a personal e-mail and get
them to be interested in reviewing your product
via the sales letter.
They will purchase your product for their own use
or resell it and keep all the profits to
themselves. What you are looking for is someone
with great marketing power. As long as you have
created a good back-end profit in the product, you
will earn residual income more effectively by
leveraging on other people’s marketing power.
This method is one of my favorites as most
resellers actually do not bother to do the STP
method – See Ten People a day.
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
• You can create a free report or E-book for
viral marketing purposes and circulate it in
your network. This is yet my other favorite. In
the report or E-book, you provide free but
useful information on a subject having to do
with the product you are selling. Just be sure
that it is not really a cloaked sales letter
altogether. This will in turn, lead targeted
prospects to your sales letter thus increasing
your chances of making sales.
• Write articles having to do with the product
you are selling. While you are not to write
cloaked sales letters and submit them to
article directories, giving free and beneficial
information in your articles to people who are
searching for it gives you credibility as you
prove your worth. Again, this can result in
targeted leads to your website and sales letter
through your web site link in your resource
box.
• Announce and promote the product in your
mailing list. The bigger and higher quality
your subscriber list is, the more sales you can
make.
• Create a website that channels to your
product’s sales letter – create web pages with
content related to the product you are selling.
The more relevant your web site is to your
product, the more targeted your prospects are
when you channel them to your sales letter
through links and banner ads. This will improve
your conversion rate as well.
While there are certainly more ways you can do to
promote your website and drive targeted leads into
your sales letter for good conversion rate of sales
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
(let us not forget the back-end profits your
product can also create!), most of these marketing
plans can be followed easily with little to no cost
on your part.
Be aware that the reseller business is pretty tough
competition. You already win half the battle just
by having the latest hot product to start with,
more advantage if the product is not saturated yet.
There you have it – what you need to start your
very own resell rights business!

2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
Quite simply – there is a different Internet
Business for everybody.
So what are the Internet Businesses?
INTERNET BUSINESS MODEL No. 1
Known better as the “Retailer” model. How would you
like to own your own Internet Store selling over 1
million products if you wish, with nothing to stock
or fulfill? Just imagine - no real store overheads,
no need to employ hundreds of staff, and no realestate
rental charges! This Internet Business Model

themselves.

initial sales of those characters!
INTERNET BUSINESS MODEL No. 5
This is known as the “virus” model. ICQ is an
example of this Internet Business Model. This
Internet Business Model can be explosive if done
right. All you need to have is a single page web
site that features something funny, sad touching,
rude or controversial. Then your visitors who see
your website will not be able to resist telling
their friends about it. When their friends see it
too, they will in turn tell their friends about it,
and on and on it goes.
There are those who have this Model on their site
but do not realize it at all! Your profits come
from many sources. This can be one of the easiest
Models to set up, depending on your aspirations and
content.

This is the “Freebie” Internet Business Model we’ve
covered briefly in this special report. Provide

subscribers.

If you’re an expert, trainer, guru, consultant or
speaker of some kind, this is the perfect model for

don’t implement it!

deep knowledge of your subject, and still make

others under this Internet Business Model. All it

strategies and tactics.
INTERNET BUSINESS MODEL No. 12
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
Prepare yourself to trash your competition all
selling products similar to yours! This is the
“Super Affiliate” Internet Business Model. You can
easily outshine, out-click and outgun your
competitors using specific, little-used techniques

INTERNET BUSINESS MODEL No. 13
Make your worn pair of Levi's and Nike's make a
fortune for you using the Internet. The Super
Internet Entrepreneurs under this category are
called "Power Sellers". They use a little ingenuity
and plenty of tools found on the Internet to help
them make their fortune.
INTERNET BUSINESS MODEL No. 14
Become a millionaire by just playing with the
letters of the alphabet. You don't even need to
create a web site for this one. A good example is
Business.com. Business.com sold for over USD7
million some years ago. Those days are long gone,
but if you what to do, you can purchase domain
names for less than USD10 and resell them for at
least 10 or 100 times more, and having willing
buyers waiting to buy them from you.
INTERNET BUSINESS MODEL No. 15
If you’re into Multi-Level-Marketing (also known as
MLM or Network Marketing), there is no bigger or
better medium for you to use than the Internet to
help you recruit and sell your products. The total
Internet population as of September 2004 was about
934 million. The figure is projected to reach 1.07
billion in Year 2005. With the Internet being
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
global in nature, your downlines can from all over
the world! I know of an Internet Entrepreneur who
had 215 paid downlines within 4 weeks after joining
an Internet MLM, and 4 weeks after that he had 305
paid members! How long does it take you to recruit
305 paid downlines in conventional MLM?
INTERNET BUSINESS MODEL No. 16
This is the Reseller Rights Business we have
covered in this report. Put a super twist to an
existing way of making money on the Internet to
come up with an equally explosive new Internet
Business Model. This relatively new Internet
Business Model being used only by a handful of
Super Internet Entrepreneurs so far. It requires
some work but well worth it for one particular
profit center it can create for you.
INTERNET BUSINESS MODEL No. 17
If you’re a technical person or a programmer, this
Model is for you. You make money by giving your
software away to webmasters for free!
INTERNET BUSINESS MODEL No. 18
This model enables you to fully automate a service
you would normally provide to your customers in the
real world. When you can automate a service, you’re
no longer bound by the number of hours you have in
a day. With the Internet, you can deliver your
service to an entire world in the same time!
INTERNET BUSINESS MODEL No. 19
You make money by simply thanking your visitors for
having done something on the Internet! Quit simply,
you target webmasters with a free online tool that
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
will end up with the webmasters’ visitors looking
at your “Thank You for Using This Tool” page. The
“Thank You” page is where you make your money!
While there are several different Internet Business
Models, it also means that their marketing
strategies are different all together. For example,
assume you’re a plumber in the physical world. So
how would you promote your services? You would
place ads in the newspapers and in the Yellow
Pages. But if you’re running a hot dog cart, you
don’t have to advertise your hot dog cart in the
papers. You just need to locate your hot dog cart
in high-trafficked areas such as the shopping
complex, outside a movie theatre and so forth.
The conclusion is this: different Internet Business
Models are for different people. If you’re to start
your own Internet Business, be sure to choose one
that suits you best!
There you go!
Now, you might want to ask me “what does a
successful business actually look like?”
That is a good and very important question. Because
a good way to learn and become successful yourself
is to imitate what other successful people are
doing. And that is why I have decided to include
examples of over 50 successful businesses…

interests me.
There are many millions of thrill seekers out there
on the Internet looking for an exciting way to earn
a living.
Everything from Snowboard instructor to Oil Rig
worker, but they don't know how to go about finding
these jobs.
My idea was to create a membership site that
charges a monthly fee to subsribe to. The
membership site would be free to job advertisers
and you would have a bulletin board of job listings
up for members to read.
I was also going to create a series of short
reports that would be included into the membership
site....
like how to write a proper resume, what employee's
are looking for, what to expect to be doing when
you get a job and past examples of people who have
already gotten jobs in their chosen fields.
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
I would also write up a series of reports like "How
to make money with your love of Snowboarding" "How
to make money with your love of travel" etc.
This is a brilliant idea and I'm going to be doing
it soon if someone else doesnt jump on in.
Information Product Idea -
SecretChessMoves.com
Everyone is in hoo-ha about public domain
content and how it's an easy way to create
your own products, and I couldn't agree
more. I've sold more then my fair share of
public domain material, but I hardly sell it
in ebook form anymore.
Why?
Well why would I?
I love ebooks, more then any other way to
make money online. Ebooks are great, but
sometimes it's a good idea to buck the
trends.
Everyone is using public domain content and
turning it into digital content, but what
I've been doing is using various public
domain texts and turning them into massive
physical products.
The next project I was about to create in
this format was a Chess product from text I
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
found at Gutenberg.org. There are 3 or 4
texts in the public domain that are massive
in size and as an avid Chess player, I found
fascinating, so I was going to create a
massive bounded physical product out of
these texts.
This isn't hard to do and there are many
ways to go about it.
You could on the basic scale just print off
the public domain texts and put them into a
3 ring binder, you could create an AUDIO CD
set with the text or you could create a
tutorial DVD using the example chess moves
they give you in the text.
A DVD would go down real well and you could
sell it for big bucks.

Community Site -
SkiResortInformation.com
The idea for this website,
Skiresortinformation.com is for it to be the
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
central hub for when people look for
information on ski resorts in the US and
around the world.
It will also be the place ski resorts will
want to advertise their services.
So what you will want to do is the
following:
1) Create a free and paid directory listing
for ski resorts to advertise their services,
like buyincomeproperties.com does for their
advertisers.
2) Create 5 to 10 digital ebooks on all
areas of ski resort information. You can
find topics for ebooks by going to
Amazon.com and having a look at the type of
books people are selling based on ski resort
and skiing information.
3) A free forum/message board so people can
post questions and talk to each other. This
builds a nice little community on your site.
4) Create 10 or so articles that you can put
on your site and send out to publishers for
free traffic
5) Create an affiliate program so people can
promote your digital ebooks for you and
drive massive traffic to your site for free
while making sales.
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
6) Setup a mailing list people can subscribe
to, to get information on ski resorts and
things like that.
The idea of the business is to tap a niche
market. People are looking to go away for a
skiing holiday, but they are not sure where
to go, or what to do. So if you can create a
site that has good information on skiing and
ski resort holidays, people will flock to
your site, and so will advertisers.

ReprintRightsBroker.com
One of the hottest niche markets off the
Internet marketing field is reprint rights.
Everyone wants to have their own products
without having to create them, themselves.
Basically, reprint rights are products
people have created like ebooks or anything
digital usually and they allow people to buy
rights to sell the product as their own
without having to give any money from the
sales to the originalowner.
Reprint rights sell from as low as $17 to as
high as $15,000 and more.
The idea for this business is to be the
middle man when people are looking for
reprint rights. You could create a site that
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
allows people to advertise the type of
reprint rights they are offering to their
product and you could charge them a set fee
or take a percentage of the sale.
This is sort of like the first business
idea, the difference really is the market.
You could even set it up as a membership
site. I know I would pay to join a site that
had honest reviews on reprint rights for
sale. Become the central hub for people
looking for reprint rights and for people
looking to advertise their reprint rights.
Membership Site -
GoalLists.com
This is an awesome business idea and I got
the idea from a similar service called
Mygoals.com.
Everybody has goals they want to achieve but
sometimes they don't know exactly how to get
there or they lose their motivation quickly.
I know I do sometimes, everyone does.
The business idea here is to sell people
access to a membership that shows them
exactly how to achieve their goals and then
gives them the motivation to do it.
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
Let's say someone wanted to write a novel,
but didn't really know how to get started
and they also know they would lose
motivation along the way, this is what I
would do.
I would give them a complete day by day
checklist of things they had to do that day
and have completed by that night and so on,
until you had a whole week of checklists for
them to use for everyday of the week.
People want things done for them and while
you can't write their novel for them, you
can practically hold them by the hand and
tell them what needed to be done to get to
their goals.
There are a million and one ideas you could
do with this one, I just mentioned one idea.
Service -
PayPerClickDating.com
This is one of the business ideas which I
think has the highest potential to make you
a million dollars, it's also the one with
the most risks and the probably the most
costly to start up compared to the other
business ideas I've suggested.
The idea is based around two of the most
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
Popular services on the Internet to date,
dating and pay per click search engines.
The idea of the business is to start your
own pay per click dating site. There is
nothing like this anywhere on the Internet,
and it will no doubt make the person who can
make this work a lot of money.
The way I see this business going is as
follows. The site will be a pay per click
search engine, but instead of search results
for websites, people will search for
profiles of people looking for dates online.
The person with the profile on the site will
pay so much per click to be listed under
certain categories just like a normal pay
per click search engine. For instance, if
someone is from Texas and has brown hair
they could bid to be in that category.
All the people have to do who are searching
for dates is select the categories they want
to look under and the all the people who
wish to have their profile listed on the
site have to do is bid for positions in
categories they want to be listed under just
like any normal pay per click search engine.
I would also charge a small fee to enter the
site for people who haven’t put a profile on
the site but are browsing. This way the
people who have a profile on the site won't
just be getting clicks from freebie seekers.
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
The only problem would be getting everything
setup with the site. It will take some
programming knowledge, but that can all be
hired from Elance.com.
What I would do is buy an existing pay per
click search engine script, which you can
find on google.com and get someone on elance
to modify it so its exactly what you want.
Short Reports/eBooks -
TakeAShortBreak.com
Everybody wants to get away for a weekend or
long weekend every once and a while but no
one really knows where to go or what to do
and by the time they figure out what their
plan is, they have usually run out of time
and decide to do it at a later date.
This is where you come in. This business
idea is all about selling easy to create
ebooks about travel destinations that are
close to home.
This is very easy to setup. The first thing
you would need to do is find out where
Americans like to spend their free time.
These would be the places you write about.
For instance, here are a few book titles you
could use.
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
Romantic weekends for 2
The best skiing holidays for the whole
family on a budget
48 hours in Houston
The complete guide to 3 day cruises
Etc....
Basically all you have to do is find out the
hottest destinations people who are
travelling to for short breaks, write guides
for them all, setup a simple website and
affiliate program, something like
http://www.fabjob.com and you're set.
Niche Service -
NicheOnlineRadio.com
This idea is probably going to set you back
a few quid I admit it, but I think the long
term forecast for this business will make up
for that initial spending of money.
Internet radio has really never taken off
big time and that's a shame because it has
real potential.
The business idea here is, is to target
small niche markets, profitable niche
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
markets that could use an Internet radio
station broadcast.
But here's the kicker and where the idea
really takes off and will make you the most
money.
Instead of just going after one niche
market, you go after hundreds! For every
niche market you create a couple of hours a
week content for your radio station.
There are two ways this could work.
1) You could run a live Internet radio
station and tell people to tune in at
certain times,
Or...
2) You could create the online content and
run it continually until you create more
content.
This way the content would have a chance to
be heard at anytime and your advertisers
would get more bang for their buck.
If you don't have advertisers, register an
easy to remember domain name and plug a few
affiliate programs in there as well.

You really need an open mind for this
business, but if you can think outside the
box, I really believe this idea is a winner.
This an idea I had for a membership a few
months back after seeing a news report on
high school drop outs looking for new career
paths and training.
In this membership site you would tell
people about what kind of jobs they can go
for without needing a degree or even a high
school certificate.
You'd be surprised at what jobs are out
there and are willing to train employee's
and pay rather large amounts of money to do
so.
Basically you would be providing people with
information on high paying jobs they can go
for without needing any formal education at
all. You could also have a job notice board
in your site as well where employers post
job ad's.

Content Site -
FiveMinuteGuides.com
This site will be the mother of all adsense
sites.
Adsense is all the rage now, and there are
so many different ways to make money from
Adsense, but here is a method you've
probably not tried and most people probably
won't as it does take effort and time.
Most people seem to want to keep switching
from automatic software generators to bombs
to portal sites to directory listing sites,
which is fine, but I have and always will
stick to creating unique content that's
informative and of high quality.
My method is not the only way to make money
with Adsense, but I feel this is the best
method for long term success, simply because
it's been working well for me in different
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
ways since I began Internet marketing back
in 1998.
This is a business idea that I'm doing right
now and I believe it will make me a fortune
in the long run.
What I've been doing is creating a site like
Ehow.com. It's a free site that shows people
how to do a lot of different things. The
best way to explain the site is just for you
to go have a quick look now.
They have thousands and thousands of pages
of content on all sorts of subjects and the
way they get traffic to their site is
through the search engines, which is all
well and good if you want to wait awhile,
but this guide is all about making money
quickly.
Every page on their site has an adsense box
on it and that's how they make their money.
They also have an Alexa traffic ranking of
around 2000 which is great.
Trying to write that much content before
making any money would be difficult, you'd
lose interest quickly and trying to write
that much content or even buy that much
content in one hit would be lunacy.
I've always preferred to make money
constantly even if the project is only half
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
done or in progress. I find it gives me
incentive to keep going.
So this is what I'm doing, and no I'm not
going to show you my site because I don't
want everyone copying it.
I registered a catchy domain name, something
like fiveminuteguides.com or learnitnow.com
and I started writing little 500 to 750 word
action plans on all sorts of topics and one
happens to be on a favorite subject of mine,
fly fishing.
So my fly fishing page looks something like
http://www.fiveminuteguides.com/flyfishing.
html and it's a small 750 check list
on all things to do with fly fishing with 2
Adsense boxes, one in the middle and one of
the right hand side.
When it comes to Adsense, you have to think
like your website visitor. What is it they
are looking to buy? There is no use putting
something on my website about how to make
money with your fly fishing passion because
the advertisers with Adsense are selling fly
fishing equipment not how to make money with
fly fishing.
You need to make your content fit into the
Adsense ads and I think that's where a lot
of people go wrong with Adsense.
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
Back to the business plan. Ok, so you've got
your site up, you have a page up on a
certain topic that had a fairly high search
rate and Adsense payout rate, now what? How
do you make money with this page.
Write articles! For every one fly fishing
type checklist write 10 to 20 articles on
all sorts of subjects to do with your topic.
I wrote close to 40 for mine and I havn't
become rich from it but if I can put up 500
similar checklists in the next year I will
be earning a very nice income.
But how do you get people from reading your
article to going to your website?
Well, not only would you mention your site
within your article, (slip it in subtley)
you also have your article byline you can
use for that purpose.
For example
"For a complete checklist for your first fly
fishing trip visit blah.com"
Or...
"For a complete step by step checklist for
catching large Trout visit blah.com"
So not only will you make money instantly
from your website, you will also build tons
of quality content over time and you will
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
have hundreds maybe even thousands of
articles all over the Internet working for
you around the clock and your site will do a
heck of a lot better in the search engines
due to all the incoming links!
This is a very rough outline, but you smart
people out there will be able to run with it
and add new ideas I havn't even thought of.
This is one of those money machines that
will make you money on demand pretty much
for the life of the Internet.
Information Product Idea -
BecomeAFighterPilot.com
The phrase "Fighter Pilot" gets searched for
nearly 9000 times a month. Whether that
relates to people wanting information on
being a fighter pilot, I don't know, but I
sure as hell know I want this information.
A good way to get content for this
information product would be to interview
either ex fighter pilots or pilots still
currently employed within the armed
services.
I honestly had no thoughts of even marketing
this product, I was solely going to create
it to sell to another company like

you a list of all the ebook topics I saw

Register the domain name above, go to
CBmall.com (where I made this list) and go
find all the sites I mentioned in that list
and write down the URLs, what type of
product is being sold, how it is being sold
and how your customers can improve on it.
Tell them how to make money in that market
with their own products.
The sales letter would be easy to write for
this product. The product really sells
itself. You could charge anywhere from $97

You could sell these for anywhere from $9.95

A great way to get free traffic to your
website would be to start a free forum on
all things Extreme Sports.
Another idea if you wanted to target people
already started in these Extreme Sports
would be to interview top athletes in these
Extreme Sports and get them to give your
readers a more detailed look at each sport.
You could either do this via text or audio
or even video. You could sell a DVD on any

expert showing you how it’s done.
I can tell you now this has not been done

HobbyIn2Cash.com
This is my favourite business idea of them
all. Just about everyone has a favourite
hobby yah? And we all wish we could turn
this hobby into a full time income right?
Well this is what you would teach people in
this membership site.
How to make money with their love of....
• How to make money with your love of golf
• How to make money with your love of scrap
booking
• How to make money with your love of
baseball
• How to make money with your love knitting
Etc....
What you could do is setup a membership site
called Hobbyin2Cash.com that teaches people
how to make money with their chosen hobby.
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
The best way to go about this would be to
have different categories in your membership
for different hobbies.
You could then update your membership site
every month with articles specifically for
that hobby.
So for instance you could have 2 articles
written about making money with
scrapbooking, and to keep your members
coming back paying month after month, you
would add new articles every month on how to
make even more money with their love of
scrapbooking.
You could do this with just about every
hobby known to man, and in 1 or 2 years have
one of the largest paid content sites on the
Internet.
You could easily charge anywhere from $29.95
a month for this information. You would only
need 1000 subscribers and you would be
earning nearly $30,000 a month!

Affiliate Site - Faq-
Guides.com
I'm really in love with this idea. I think
this would have to be one of the greatest
ways to make an affiliate income ever.
People have sniffed around the idea before
and have come close to this, but this, I
believe is the best system to an automated
affiliate income there is to date.
Here's the idea.
We've all been taught to create free viral
ebooks to either promote our products or
affiliate products and submit them to free
ebook directories. This was sound advice,
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
but I've found an even better way to make
this work.
Create your own free ebook directory full of
your own free viral ebooks!
Think Clickbank.com but with free ebooks on
all subjects that you own, promoting
affiliate programs 24/7.
People go to this site, download the free
book they want, they pass it around, and
there ya go, automated affiliate income.
But how do you go about creating these free
ebooks so they produce the best sales
possible? I've found by creating an FAQ list
(frequently asked question) on a certain
subject and then converting it into PDF, my
affiliate sales have soared.
I'm not trying to heavily sell them in the
book, they are getting very useful free
information and I then point them to a paid
resource to get more information if they
want to.
I also ask them to pass the book around as
much as they like.
Want an example of an FAQ list? Go here
http://www.faqs.org/faqs/bodybuilding/
hardgainer-faq/
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
This FAQ list is quite big and detailed.
Your free books only need to be 5 or so
pages long.
Here is an article I wrote on creating a
viral ebook. It really doesn't have much to
do with the business idea in general, but
will give you an idea of what I'm talking
about at least...
****
This is just a very quick overview, but if
you want more information on creating
Ebooks, I suggest you visit 2 sites.
My favourite site is Terry Dean's exclusive
member site at
http://www.netbreakthroughs.com.
It's full of the best information on
marketing and it's only $19.95 a month.
The next product solely focuses on creating
your own Ebook in less then 7 days and that
is written by Jim Edwards. You can find it
at http://www.7dayebook.com. It's a one off
fee for $27 and it comes in Ebook format
ironically enough.
Now, back to my explanation:
Whether you like it or not, having your own
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
product gives you more flexibility in your
online advertising AND believe it or not,
compiling an Ebook is no more then a weeks
work part time if done correctly and IF you
do it this way the profits will come in for
life.
I have checks coming in still from work I
did 2 years ago, thanks to the power of
residual income affiliate programs and viral
marketing Ebooks.
Ok, lets get down to the nitty gritty. What
is a viral marketing Ebook and why should
you create one?
A viral marketing Ebook is a book which sole
purpose is to be spread around the Internet
quickly, by any means possible. It's not
meant to make you money on the front end.
You want other people selling it and giving
it away to as many people as possible.
Why?
Because the inside of that book is full of
affiliate links to other peoples products
and every time someone gives away your book
or sells it, (depending on how you want to
do it) more people will be seeing your
affiliate links, and this is costing you
what? NOTHING? Exactly!
The best examples I could give you of this
process would be by Yanik Silver. He created
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
2 marketing books that spread over the
Internet like wildfire. He gave everyone who
purchased the book for $19 or $17 (depending
on the book) the rights to sell it or give
it away to their customers.
Needless to say, thousands of people
starting selling it and promoting it all
over the Internet. To this day, he is still
earning good money from that book, plus he
became one of the most well known Internet
Marketers to date.
So how do you go about creating your own
viral marketing Ebook?
Here are the steps.
1) Come up with a product idea based on your
affiliate program you've already chosen and
are already promoting.
Coming up with ideas isn't hard. For
example, and I know I use this example a
lot, BUT, If you are going to be promoting a
sports betting affiliate program, why not
create a book on becoming a successful
punter. Then throughout the book, you can
recommend your favorite sports betting
affiliate program.
101 insider secrets to sports betting
How to bet with other peoples money
A good way to come up with ideas is to look
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
at what others are already selling and mimic
that. You dont need to recreate the wheel
here, so PLEASE don't make things harder
then they have to be.
2) Get the tools you need to succeed
You are going to need a few tools here.
A) A domain name
I register all my domain names with
http://www.namecheap.com for under $9 a
domain name, which to me is pretty darn
cheap. You want a fairly short domain name
that describes the content of your book
fairly well.
Here's an example for you people promoting
sport betting affiliate programs.
http://www.sportsbettingaffiliates.com
http://www.sportsoddbetting.com
http://www.101waystobeattheodds.com
http://www.betforfree.com
etc....
B) Webhosting
Let me say first, you get what you pay for.
This has never been more true then with
webhosting. YOU NEED a good reliable
webhosting company with 24/7 technical
support. If your site goes down and you
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
can't contact anyone to help you get it back
up, you will lose sales and a lot of them.
I recommed you use
http://www.thirdspherehosting.com for the
simple fact they offer all you need, plus a
lot more for a reasonable price.
C) Autoresponder
You will need this so you can contact your
prospects that don't purchase straight away.
This is where you will give away your free
course or someway to entice them to give you
their email address so you can contact them
periodically.
D) Credit card processor
Just use http://www.clickbank.com. This step
is too easy. They will let you accept all
major credit cards and start an affiliate
program for a one time setup fee of under
$50. They do take a percentage of every
sale, but this is so much cheaper then
getting your own merchant account.
Just about everyone selling Ebooks online is
using Clickbank.
E) Ebook Software
You will more then likely want to create
your book in PDF format so everyone can read
it. Some Ebooks come in EXE format, but mac
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
users can't read that format, so I find it
best to use PDF. You can create your book
with http://www.createpdf.com for a fairly
cheap price.
F) Graphic Design Software
If you are anything like me, your artistic
abilities peaked at age 7. So instead of
busting my hump to create my Ebook covers
and website graphics I use
http://www.1clickcovers.com and
http://www.1clickheaders.com
For all my graphics, They are great pieces
of software that you can use instead of
hiring graphic designers.
I do however recommend one graphic designer
by the name of Max Rylski. You can view his
work at http://www.maxcovers.com
3) Outline your book chapters into articles
Writing a whole book in one sitting is hard,
and trying to write a book without outlining
the chapters is nearly impossible. My first
book I ever wrote took me over 6 months but
now most of my books take me less then a
week to finish and that is with a sales
letter and website up.
All you have to do is think up 12 to 15
article topics in sequence and write about
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
them. Each page should be around 700 to 1000
words, full of useful information, not
information people could get for free.
4) Write your content
Like I said just before, you need original
content. There are too many books out there
now where people are just regurgitating
information others can get for free and this
lowers the value of your book, which means
less people will pass it around and even
less will read it.
If you are really stuck with your writing, I
suggest that you do the following. Actually,
Terry Dean from
http://www.netbreakthroughs.com taught me
this trick.
The best way to get a good amount of
original information without writing it
yourself is to interview experts in the
field. For instance, if you were writing a
book about improving your golf handicap, I'm
sure it wouldn't be too hard to find some
local experts who you could grill in person,
over the phone or even via the Internet and
you can then put all that information in the
book. It's also a good selling point.
Also remember when your writing what the
point of this book is. The point of the book
is to earn you an on going commission with
affiliate programs, so don't feel like you
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
can't throw some affiliate links in, because
you can, but make sure it's tactful and in
place.
Another good idea would be to put a
"Subscribe to my newsletter" section in your
book as well, so not only will you make
commissions on sales, but also generate
leads without doing any extra work.
Make sure you clearly state in the front of
the book, that the buyer can sell this book
as his own. State that he has Resell Rights
to the product and can sell it or give it
away if he chooses.
5) Create your sales letter
This is where you will be selling your book
from and is critically crucial to your
success.
Creating a sales letter takes a lot of work,
especially if your new to the whole thing.
The best way and the way I use, is to mimic
successful sales letters.
I recommend you have a look at the following
sales letters selling Ebooks.
http://www.turnwordsintotraffic.com
http://www.masterinternetmarketing.com
http://www.linkingstrategies.com
http://www.the-whole-truth.com
http://www.instantinternetprofits.com
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
If for some reason you think you can't do
this by yourself, you have 2 options.
1) Use software that helps put together your
sales letter
and
2) Hire a copywriter
Software is great and there a 2 options out
there. The first one is
http://www.instantsalesletters.com by Yanik
Silver and
http://www.saleslettergenerator.com by
Armand Morin. They are just as good as each
other.
However, if you want to hire a professional
copywriter, your looking at thousands of
dollars, plus royalties from your book
sales.
Remember that your selling this book with
reprint rights, which means when they buy
the book they can sell it as well. This is a
huge selling point for you. You will also be
giving them your Ebook cover, website
graphics and sales letter to use to sell
your product.
6) Plug in your free 5 day autoresponder
series
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
The best way to write your free 5 day course
that your prospect get via your pop up
window is to take chapters out of your book
and put them in as a free teaser.
Remember to emphasize an urgency. You want
to make these prospects who don't buy
straight away, feel like they are missing
out on an opportunity of a life time and
considering the low price of the book, if
they don't buy, more then likely they
weren't really interested or were freebie
seekers from the start.
7) Advertise!
Depending on your topic, you will want to
target different people. However, no matter
what topic your selling on, there is one
market who will want your book for the sole
purpose of selling it, and that's the
Internet Marketing group.
Your book could be on Hippo's but all they
care about is the fact they can sell it as
their own. This is why this type of book
always does well.
The key is to target people in your market
and then the Internet Marketing crowd. I
really am begging you to check out Terry
Deans http://www.netbreakthroughs.com as it
will give you all the knowledge you need and
if you want you can stay for 1 month and
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
still get more then you will ever need,
information and personal help wise.
Content Site -
MustDoTravel.com
I've always wanted to create a huge travel
portal with loads of content but never had
the time really.
This will probably set you back a bit of
money and a fair bit of time before you
really see any profits in return, so you may
want to skip this idea if that’s a problem.
Think of this like a Fiveminuteguide.com
site but purely about travel. Travel
keywords always pay well with adsense and
while the competition can be fierce for
hotly contested phrases and keywords, there
are thousands of little keywords you can
target as well.
My dream was to have a mini guide for every
destination in the world, and while this
would probably take me years to compile, I
would then have one of the largest content
sites on travel on the Internet, so the
rewards are there.

have to spend on one project.

Here's a simple business idea you can start
right now. A friend of mine who owns
Private-Label-Resell-Rights.com did the
exact same thing I had in mind.
He basically purchased the private label
rights to 8 ebooks for under $1500, packaged
them all as a business opportunity and has
made an absolute killing by doing very
little work.
All he did was change the books around a
bit, get really well written sales letters
and graphics made and that's it, a brand new
product he can sell for $297 a pop.
Give it a try.
Just be careful who you buy private label
rights off. Make sure everything is legal
and they have the right to offer you the
private label rights to these products.
Make sure you can change the content in the
books in anyway you want. This way you can
turn other people’s hard work into your own
work with very little effort.

You may even want to sell the product

How To Find $100,000 Products
You Can Sell Online
If you've ever dreamt about being a super
affiliate and wondered how people make any
money promoting products that pay them
measly commissions, this is the chapter for
you
The real secret to affiliate commissions is
promoting high end products. In this chapter
I'm going to show you where to find these
products and how to promote them.
Google has recently launched a new service
called Froogle which you can find at
http://www.froogle.com.
This service allows you to find all sorts of
products people are selling. I guess you
would call it the worlds largest online
shopping directory.
This is how the Google people describe their
new service
"Froogle is a new service from Google that
makes it easy to find information about
products for sale online.
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
By focusing entirely on product search,
Froogle applies the power of Google's search
technology to a very specific task: locating
stores that sell the item you want to find
and pointing you directly to the place where
you can make a purchase."
Basically it allows you to find any product
for sale on the Internet.
So what's so good about this?
If you know anything about affiliate
programs you know it's HARD to find good
products to sell that nobody else is selling
and Froogle.com will allow you to do that.
The best part is it allows you to search for
products by price range.
So if you wanted to find and promote
products that sell for over $100,000 you can
do that!
Ok, let's move onto the next step. Selling
$100,000 + products on the Internet. How do
you do it? Do people actually buy products
that sell for this price online?
Yes they do, big time.
The type of products in this price range
could be jewelry, car's, holidays, real
estate and even boats.
The best way to sell these types of products
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
would be to become the leader in the field
on the Internet. So when someone thinks
about buying a luxury car or holiday, your
name will come up.
But how do you do that?
By becoming the expert in the field! You
want to be first in the search engines, you
want to be in their face when they read
articles about the subject at hand, you want
to be first when they go to message boards
and ask questions. You want your name and
website to be there.
(I talk more about all the different types
of free advertising in another chapter in
this book.)
Selling large products like this isn't going
to be like selling $25 ebooks online, you're
going to have to put in the hard work.
You should be aiming to create a site
something like http://www.tractorbynet.com
That site is totally dedicated to Tractors
and it pulls in a fortune. Why? Because when
someone says I want to buy a tractor online
or want more information about a certain
type of tractor, that's the place that comes
up every time they ask those questions.

Service - Cheap-Sales-
Letters.com
Another common complaint amongst marketers
is they don't want to write sales letters
themselves but don't want to pay thousands
of dollars to get someone to do it for them.
What I've come to realize is people don't
want master pieces from you when writing a
sales letter, they just want something they
can work with. A complete sales letter for
under $100 they can then tinker with
themselves if need be.
Let's say you take on 2 sales letter clients
a day at $97 a pop. That's nearly $1500 a
week, which isn't bad money in anyone’s
language.
Of course you would have to have some
knowledge in copywriting. If you are serious
about this, I suggest finding all the
copywriting books you can and read
everything you can on copywriting, and
practice!

I didn't create this guide yet because I
can't really determine if there is a market
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
for it or not. I know it would be a fun book
to write or even create a hard copy course
out of.
My thoughts were as follows.
I was going to create an ebook on how to
brew beer, then create a home study guide
that arrives in the mail. I would then
create a sales letter, a few follow-up
autoresponder emails and whatever else is
needed and sell the lot as a complete
turnkey business.
You could even sell this business on Ebay.
There is plenty of free information floating
around the Internet on how to brew beer from
home, but no real course that I can see, so
I think a lot of people would be interested
in this.

One of the hottest topics on the Internet
right now is that of people learning how to
create digital products, like ebooks and
software that they can sell online and make
either a full time or part time income with.
People are looking for ways to make money
online, either because they have or fear
they might lost their jobs, or they are sick
of working 9-5 and constantly hear about
people who are able to work from home.
This business idea is all about teaching
people how to create digital products,
easily and quickly. Like most people who get
into this sort of business, I would be
staying away from the "Internet marketing"
crowd big time and I would try and target
people who are new to the Internet and the
business in general.
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
Not only does this make you stand out in the
crowd, it will also make things easier when
it comes to creating the business itself.
You're probably thinking how can I create a
business about creating digital products if
I've never done anything like that before,
and that is a good question, but I have a
very good answer.
Some of the best products I've ever brought
on the Internet were not created by the
owner of the business, they either got
someone to create the product for them or
they brought in experts and interviewed them
and turned their knowledge into a product.
The best way to get started in this business
is to hire an expert in the field of product
development and use their knowledge to
create your own products.
For instance, for $19.95, you could sell an
ebook on getting started in product
development, for $47 you could see a
download video showing steps on how to
create your own digital products, for $97
you could sell a cd set with a comprehensive
guide to creating and selling your own
digital products, for $297 you could sell a
complete set of dvd's with 1 or 2 hours of
consultation on product development and for
over $500 you could even do a seminar.

I was going to create a membership site
where every month you get a list of
profitable business ideas you can steal as

But that wasn't all. I had a great backend
marketing strategy in plan.
Humans are lazy, we want everything done for
us, and even tho I give you this business
ideas that you can just steal, you would
still rather if I just gave you the business
to take over, and that was my idea.
I was (and probably still will) going to
create this membership site and charge a
small monthly fee $9.95 to attract a lot of
members, and every month they would get a
list of business ideas just like what you
are reading now.
But on the backend I was going to offer them
the chance to buy the business already made
from me.
For instance, let's say I wrote about
QualityReprintRights.com in my membership
site.
What I would do is create 7 or 8 ebooks
myself, put the site up and sell it to one
of my members exclusively for say $1495.
I don't know about you, but I would pay
$1495 for 8 ebooks that I own the full

Sort of like an online coupon, but instead
you pay a flat monthly fee and become a

selected products.
I think this is a real winner of an idea.

but I believe it will be worth it.
Depending on how much content you offer, you
could charge $100's a month to your

Parents will want everything they need to
start home schooling their children, and if
you can offer that in one place, they will
be willing to pay pretty much anything you

Students don't have hundreds of dollars to
spend on information guides, but they do
have $9.95 or $19.95 to learn how to get
their studying done quicker, so they can
have more fun.
And this is how you should market the
membership site. Don't make it sound boring,
make it sound like it will help them have

The membership site doesn't have to be

I know, I know, tough crowd, but the money
is there if you are willing to put in the
hard work.
Personally I would charge around $4.50 per
article with a minimum of 10 articles
required for a purchase.
The articles would usually be around 350 to
500 words in length each and would be based
around the keywords they supply you.
You could easily pull in $500 to $700 a day
working 14 hours a day with no outlay on

Selling Businesses On Ebay
Guide
There are literally tens of millions of
people with an EBay account that shop
periodically for everything from clothing to
information. So why not create a business
around EBay!
You already have millions of customers at
your disposal, so why not make EBay work
even harder for you?
I've used this method with some success.
It's not my favourite method, but it's so
easy and it's quick cash in your pockets.
The problem with selling physical products
on EBay is that it's a hard business to sell
onto someone else. Inventory, shipping is a
pain in the butt, so I decided to create a
business that was virtual and a product that
could be downloaded instantly.
2005 Resale-Rights-Solution.com All Rights Reserved
Of course I'm talking about an ebook here,
but you can create just about anything.
The problem I had was finding a category on
EBay that wanted information.
Most people don't associate EBay with
digital products, but people are willing to
buy them if you know where to look.
What I did was I searched thru all the
different EBay categories there were until I
found a category with a lot of bids on just
about every auction.
That category happened to be Travel/Vacation
Rentals.
EBay also has a feature that shows you what
the most popular searches are in each
category and Florida Vacation Rentals was
the most popular search term in the travel
category, so I created a small 50 page ebook
on every aspect of vacation rentals in
Florida and sold each copy for $12.95.
It didn't make me rich, I only sold 25
copies in a week, but that was good enough
for the business to sell for $450.
So for the day it took me to create
