Lucrative Leverage…Become A God (Like Noel)!!

Guest Post By: Cian, A Wealthy Affiliate Member

As I tried to think of a topic to write about, one of my most favourite songs of all-time, The Masterplan, written by Noel Gallagher of Manchester group Oasis, starts playing on one of the music channels. Whilst having nothing to do with online business or internet marketing, it somehow or other strikes a chord with how success can be achieved online.

Because basically you do need a (master) plan to see the results you desire. You can’t, as the ever anonymous “they” say…”wing it”.

And at the core of every Masterplan is the concept of high level leverage, that unquantifiable resource that can can quite literally blow your mind, and increase profits ten fold without you wasting extra hours upon hours in front of a computer screen.

In a nutshell, leverage is that which enables us to get to our goals in the fastest time possible.

More often than not it revolves around the concept of not trying to do everything yourself…and seeing the bigger picture.

All the traffic generation methods like SEO, article marketing, ppc, video marketing, social media etc, are without doubt valid ways of getting relevant visitors to your site, but if you’re doing it all by yourself then you are wasting a LOT of time in the grand scheme of things.

After all, time is our most precious resource and we have to utilize it to the maximum.

For instance…

If you’re an article marketer and are seeing profits…then maybe now is the time to outsource your article writing exploits so you can grow your traffic levels at a faster rate.

Or if you’re a PPC (the most sustainable form of obtaining traffic) marketer, but hate the time it takes to create your landing pages…why don’t not make use of one the plethora of website designers out there so that instead of building one landing page a week you have half a dozen being generated daily for pennies while you chase the top dollar.

And as for SEO, hiring a professional (once due diligence is carried out), is probably one of the best investments I’ve ever made, as it releases you from the sheer mind numbing-ness that it brings.

With a shift of mindset you can start obtaining mass relevant traffic as effortlessly as possible!!

Remember folks, for growth to be attained, we more often that not must go outside our comfort zone.

So what else can we leverage? Here is just a brief sample.

(a) High Paying Affiliate Programs

How about making use of profitable affiliate programs? Instead of breaking our backs to achieve a $20 commission on a clickbank product, what about going about products that reward you as much as possible for your efforts. For instance, one great high paying program is the JamesAllen.com affiliate program in the jewelry niche, with usual earnings being $210 per sale. In most cases it takes as much effort to secure the sale of a $20 item then it does a $200 one, as price expectations differ in every market you encounter.

(b) People.

Why do everything by yourself when hundreds, if not thousands of people will do it for you as your affiliate? This is the enviable position a product owner can find herself/himself in when being at the top of the food chain. While work does go into support, product management/improvement, development/programming, affiliate management, up-sell/down-sell/continuity implementation, the opportunities are incredible, and if you have an affiliate army behind you, taking care of traffic generation, you can focus on converting that traffic into sales and building your business even further.

Alongside affiliates, you can also broker JV deals with the “big dogs” in your market and network with other knowledgeable folks (the experts). All this fits in with the aim of slashing learning curves, making more profits and creating GROWTH.

And finally, you can leverage highly qualified individuals that have the skills which you need to succeed. Whether it be product creation, website design, opt-in reports, graphic design, video creation etc, someone else can take care of it, thus removing all barriers that may have stood in your way to success

(c) Profitable Websites.

Any profitable website has a great potential for a lump sum payment. Generally speaking a website can be sold for 10-12 times its monthly revenue, so if you buy an established website, increase its inherent value (ie. employ a few marketing techniques) then you can take advantage of this rule as it were, for a handsome pay day if you so desire.

(d) Autoresponders

Building an email list is a prerequisite these days as it allows you to convert generally at a much higher rate MULTIPLE times. Through building a relationship with subscribers by offering value, support and peerless recommendations you will see your affiliate and/or your own product earnings sky rocket.

So in conclusion, don’t focus on doing everything yourself. Create your plan, offset as much as possible when you can (without reducing quality of output) and you will see results coming in much much quicker. You may have to initially do it all by yourself before you can invest, but remember money is not the only thing you need to get what you want.

Bartering (offering one service in exchange for another) is a way to get what you need to grow without paying. For instance, if you need a website designed, offer instead of cash, to write articles for the designer, or anything that will benefit him/her which is in your realm of capabilities.

So with that being said, start thinking big and

PLAN. FOCUS. LEVERAGE. GROW

Drop Ship Business - You Can Start Today

The absolute best way to get started in eCommerce fast is to start a drop ship business. Why is this model so good for beginners? You can get started with no inventory and minimal start-up costs. You can try a variety of products and see which ones are the best fit for your efforts. Finally, you won't get stuck with a bunch of unsold inventory in case your offering is a bust. You will have a few losers in your quest to achieve eCommerce success, so drop shipping is the safest way to start.

So how do you start a drop ship business? You need to find good suppliers; that is the critical step. If you start out with a bad supplier, you may not find out how bad until it is too late, and you have invested valuable time promoting products. My advice: use a reliable drop ship supplier listing to find reputable partners for your drop shipping business. It might cost you a little bit up front, but as a voice of experience, you'll save money in the long run.

Spending several weeks or months trying to salvage your valuable customer relationships because you had a bad supplier is no fun at all. Your customers who bought from you are your most valuable asset, and you want to make sure that you can keep them satisfied. Make sure your supplier has a return policy, as well as a customer service team to help you along. Your supplier will be your most important business partner in eCommerce.

We reviewed 12 drop ship product directories, and found 3 we can recommend. Read more about our our review process.

Seven Deadly Sins of Your AdWords Account

Advertising on Google seems like a no brainer to many people. After all, how much brainpower does it take to create a simple ad and choose a couple of keywords? Based on my experience with auditing AdWords accounts lately, plenty of people share this belief and dive into paid search without any doubts.

Look at this checklist to see if your AdWords account is guilty of any of the common Google AdWords sins listed below:

1) Content and search network are in the same campaign

Why it's bad: Paid search works so well partially because it attracts people who are already searching for what you have to offer. When it comes to the content network, the story is different because the ads are served alongside the content the user is reading. It does not mean that content ads are a waste of time and money. It simply means that the rules of the game are different.

The punishment for this sin varies from overpaying for every click to killing the results you could be getting for your media dollars.

2) All keywords are broad match

As defined by Google, broad match keyword allows your ad to show on similar phrases and relevant variations. Basically, it means that your ads ads are matched to all kids of queries and you are overpaying on exact and phrase variations of the words.

3) There are no negative keywords

The punishment may be harsh in some cases, depending on your keyword list, but the idea behind negative keywords is to ensure your ad doesn't show for any search that is irrelevant (i.e. if you are selling custom bay windows, you do not want your ads to map to Microsoft Windows).

If your account has been running for a while without negatives, run a Search Query Report to identify the negatives you should add ASAP.

4) There's no tracking whatsoever

If you aren't tracking your results, there's no way of knowing if paid search works for you. Neither is there any data to help you make strategic decisions and optimize the account to deliver optimal results. But the biggest punishment is when things stop working and you can't see what went wrong.

5) You are chasing position 1

Vanity is never a good thing, but this is especially true in regards to paid search. It is a known fact that position one gets the most clicks, however, these clicks are known to have questionable quality as the user is likely to click on the first ad they see without really reading it. As a result, they click right out of it, but you still get charged for it. Big time.

6) Not using dayparting (ad scheduling)

Ad scheduling can help you improve your ROI by ensuring that your ads run when it makes the most business sense. For instance, a local business may only want to run their ads during business hours, or an online retailer may want to boost their bids during their busier-than-normal lunchtime shopping period.

7) All traffic goes to a homepage

This is typical and I see this across the board, yet it is the worst way to spend your media. Do take the time to think about a good landing page that helps you and the user meet the objective.

Guilty as charged? Make the changes now to avoid Google's punishment for your sins!

Quick Paid Surveys - Making Fast Money From Really Short Surveys

All the rave is about quick paid surveys. We hate spending hours of our time just to make a couple bucks and we hate being given low amounts of money. If you're having an issue finding the sites that have high paying, short survey offers, let me tell you a little secret about finding all of them with ease.

This info should come as a pleasant surprise to most people. I say that because over 95% of you are joining all of the wrong survey sites. Most of us join dozens of places to take quick paid surveys, yet all of these places are paying very low amounts. Why is this? It's because too many people still try to find them by clicking through search engine results. This needs to stop, because it's been a very long time since they gave us good lists of survey places. None of the top dollar ones will show up in those lists any more.

Now that we've talked about that, let's talk about the good news. The good news is that the web is still littered with sites that have quick paid surveys "and" pay the most money. How will you find them, though? That's easy. You do it by using something that most people forget about: Big forums. These large websites are the skeleton key to the door of places that pay high. How is this possible? Because of the great archive sections that they have and also because of the amount of totally honest information about survey sites that you can pull up here.

Honesty is the key, but most of the info on the web is spam. Big forums strip all of that out, leaving only the honest info that people leave. That's a huge help. On top of this, the archives are where you can yank up a wide variety of topics about quick paid surveys. It's always one of the bigger subjects and you can freely browse through all of those topics. Doing this will bring you to so many informative posts, where people talk about the good, bad and high paying survey websites they have found. You get to see trends concerning the amount that people are getting from various places.

It's the key to uncovering a whole new world of quick paid surveys, where you get a ton more cash for your efforts.

Adam Woodham is an expert on Paid Surveys and author of this article and runs the resource site FreeSurveyList.com, which features a top 5 list of the 100% free paid survey sites he has made the most amount of money on, along with a review of each one.

Sell Reports - How You Can Make $265 a Day

A while back I was talking to a friend of mine who is a successful online marketer. In her business, she mostly focuses on selling reports. Basically these are "mini ebooks" or reports that usually have a "how to" theme. So they are usually guides about "how to do this" or "how to approach this subject."

She keeps the information simple in her reports and she is making more than $100,000 a year from just the publishing part of her business. I was once a journalism major, and my friend has been telling me for years that I should start creating and selling my own reports online.

But the whole idea was pretty intimidating at first. Eventually she showed me how easy it is to get set up using a free blog (or a website of my own) and creating a simple PayPal button to accept payments from customers. And she guided me through the process of writing my first report, which was a how to guide about a weird hobby I've been into for years. A lot of people are interested in this hobby and I discovered that there weren't a lot of books out there on the subject. And there definitely weren't any short, user-friendly guides available online.

So I published my first report and was surprised to see earnings within the week! And I hadn't even advertised my new ebook yet, except for mentioning it on one forum that I participate in regularly.

This encouraged me to keep at it. I learned how to drive traffic to my website and to add content related to my report to entice readers to keep coming back for more. I also had to learn some other things to increase earnings.

It's not hard getting started selling reports online, and you don't have to be a great writer. Instead, imagine that you're jotting down some notes for a friend, and keep your language simple. Don't use what my father calls "million dollar words." That is, don't write using fancy vocabulary. Try to write as you speak, in a natural and user-friendly way.

If you do that, and you can put together a good outline of topics to cover, you'll quickly discover that you've completed writing your first report. And selling it can be as simple as setting up a free blog and a payment button to receive payments. You can also put together your own website. This is easily done with free templates and a simple, shared hosting plan.

Every time I publish a new report it costs me about $9 to get started. That's what it costs to register a new domain name. I add it to my shared hosting plan where I host a bunch of different websites using one hosting plan. And everything after that is pure profit.

You can get started making sales almost instantly after you publish your first report. You can send an email out to all your friends on your "contacts" list, or you can publish some free articles online at an articles directory and list the link to your website. All of this will bring people to your sales page.

Writing and publishing your first report can be the hardest part. After you learn how to do it, chances are that you'll soon become addicted to this extremely fun and financially rewarding way of earning some extra income. With each report you sell, you are adding to a stream of ongoing, passive income. It doesn't get any better than that!

Can You Make Extra Money in Your Spare Time? Here Are Some Fast Cash Ideas

Imagine if you just made an extra $50 a day in your spare time. That may not be enough money to allow you to quit your day job, but that's an extra $1,500 in your pocket a month, which could help pay your mortgage, car payment and groceries. By having an entrepreneurial spirit and an eagerness to make money, you can quickly pull in some extra cash.

One thing to keep in mind is that in order to make extra money, you don't need to necessarily reinvent the wheel. Keep things simple and don't try to over analyze things. Just do what is already working for others and replicate it.

For example, by cleaning out the attic, you could make a bundle by selling some old stuff on eBay. While the stuff collecting dust in your garage may seem like junk, you would be surprised how valuable these so-called useless items are to other people. Try cleaning out your place and making some money too.

If cleaning out the closet is not your thing but something like writing is, there are always short-terms jobs posted online at Craigslist.org. Freelance writers are in high demand and can get paid by the word. Search the "gigs" section and you'll find many opportunities for work in your area.

If you live in an urban area, people are always willing to pay top dollar for pet care. Whether it's walking their dog or pet sitting while busy travelers are out of town, many people are making a full-time living off taking care of other people's pets.

There are 3 ways you can make extra money that you can do from home in your spare time. By doing so, you can pay off debt, enjoy extra spending money, or even cover the cost of your mortgage. Fast Money Making Methods...
