5 Bucks a Day

Of the 3 dozen or so products currently on my dime sale site, 1kad.com,
the best sellers list has been dominated by Jason Fladlien’s
products. So whenever I can obtain rights from him for something,
I don’t think twice. It’s obvious that people on my lists just
love Jason’s stuff.

This time, though, I did take my time. Jason has a new product out
about membership sites, and I have recommended other courses in the
past, some of which have been very, very good, and I consider
myself pretty knowledgeable on the subject myself.

In other words, I’ve always thought I should come out with my own
course.

So when I picked up Jason’s Membership Site Tactics, I decided I
should look at it very closely, to make sure he’s teaching real
world and up to date information.

It’s a good thing I looked closer, because I’m learning things I
never thought of before.

I don’t know how Jason does it, but regardless of the subject he
decides to tackle, he seems to be able to nail it, not with bulk,
but with the information someone really wants to know, and without
fluff. This course is no exception.

Rather than drone on for 10 pages, I suggest you look at the sales page here:

I’ve made quite a good income with membership sites, in several
different formats, and so could you. Jason teaches some much
easier ways to run membership sites than I do, I’m going to try one
or two of them out, in fact I got one idea from just video 1 that I
plan to implement right away.

The course comes with 4 videos, bonuses, and a PDF summary of the
videos. The PDF alone is worth the entire cost of the course, all
by itself, with the videos we should be selling this course for at
least $97. Today it’s much less. Grab it here:
http://www.1kad.com/membershipsitetactics

By the way, if you follow Jason’s sales tactics, he’s big into hooks
for his headlines. His hook on this one is: “How to Set Up A
Membership Site In Under 6 Minutes - Using COMPLETELY FREE
Software…”. Watch over his shoulder as he shows you exactly how
to do that.

And even the list of WordPress plugins he uses for his sites is
worth the price of admission. Enough. Let him tell you more about
this gem:

I just uploaded the recording of a recent webinar I did, which I’m pretty happy about. If you’ve always wanted to know more about the 5 Bucks a Day strategy, or what my Earn1KaDay insider’s club is all about, this is for you.

Watch the webinar ==> From 5 Bucks a Day to Earn 1K a Day

On the webinar, with co-hosts Robert Plank, Jason Fladlien, and Michael Gunn, I explained the 5 Bucks a Day strategy, a wide assortment of project ideas, and take people inside the Earn1KaDay insider’s club to see some typical success stories, our business models, and more.

No pitch involved. Well, actually there was a coaching offer at the end, but you can ignore that because it’s now closed. This is just solid information that you might enjoy.

So many people gravitate to writing articles to make money online, and for good reason. First, it’s generally easy, if you have a good grasp of the language, and don’t mind putting it down into coherent sentences.

Second, there are so many opportunities. You can review products that you get paid to promote. You can submit articles to directories to get traffic to your sites. It’s probably the easiest way to get listed well on the search engines. Even blogging is writing articles, some shorter than others, some longer.

Some people write articles for others that don’t want to, don’t have the skill to, or don’t have the time to. Those people are generally called ghostwriters, and it’s a very common thing to do, which completely surprised me years ago when I found that out.

But how much income can you realistically make writing articles? If you’re writing articles to get traffic, the more you write, the more traffic you’ll get. If you’re writing articles for others, the more you write, the more income you’ll receive. So it comes down to productivity.

Regardless of how well you can write, if you can write one article a day, you won’t get rich, but you’ll do better than someone who doesn’t write at all. If you can do one an hour, you’ll do much better.

Let’s analyze this a bit. Since writing to get traffic to your site, or to an affiliate merchant’s site, contains huge variables as far as how much you’ll earn per article, let’s say that you’re writing for a client. Typically, if you write 400 to 500 word articles, which is average, you can probably earn about $5 each. A little less if you want to be very competitive, a little more once you establish a customer base that loves you and is willing to pay higher rates. But let’s say you can earn $5 per article.

So … if you write 2 articles an hour, including researching a topic that you aren’t an expert in, will earn you $10 an hour. How does that sound? To me, not impressive, to be honest.

To “get a raise” from that rate of pay, your only choice, other than to work more hours every day/week, is to write faster. Be careful, though, that your quality doesn’t go down, otherwise you’ll lose your customer’s loyalty.

How would you like to research and write an article in 7 minutes? At that rate, you’ll be making around $40 an hour (8 articles per hour would be your speed). Much better, right?

Sounds impossible, right? Not so. Jason Fladlien started as a ghostwriter, and developed those skills, which he’s making available to you. Difficult to master? No, not really. The package includes a short report, a series of videos, and some bonuses, I would say within an hour or two after purchasing this package, you’ll be writing faster. That’s a nice quick return on investment, I would say.

I recently acquired another membership site, DailySeminar.com

The site was originated by Jason Fladlien and Robert Plank in December 2008.  Their promise was to add a “mini seminar session” each, every week, an interview every week, a bonus product every week, and a review of the week’s activities every Friday.  Saturday and Sunday were meant for rest.

When I found out that the content for all of 2009 was finished, and that they were considering selling the site so that they could move on to new challenges, I told Jason that I was interested.  Long story short, we negotiated quickly and I’m now the new owner.

I do have an agreement with Jason and Robert that they’ll still be around to answer any questions members have, and they will be providing new content for the site in 2010 (as mentioned, everything promised is already done for 2009).

What’s changing, for the better I believe, as that I’ll be transcribing the 165 videos and allowing members to download those PDF’s.  I’ll also be seeking out other guest speakers to provide their specialties on video.  And some other surprises are sure to surface before things settle down.  It’s all good, I think members are in total agreement about that.

Would you like a sample of the type of content these guys have produced?  I thought you’d never ask.

One session that I specifically asked Jason to provide a video for was “How an Internet Marketer Can Make a Difference in Someone’s Life”.  He knocked that out quickly, and it’s scheduled for December release to members, but you can watch it now here:  ==> How an Internet Marketer Can Make a Difference in Someone’s Life

I also took a random topic that Robert did, I think it’s due for rolling out officially in October, and want to show you what he’s capable of:  ==> Super High Impact Frontends

If  you like those 2, just think, you’ll get access to several dozen immediately (from December 2008 until now) upon joining, and 3 more ever week, plus bonuses, plus more surprises to come.

What do President Obama, Donald Trump, the Pope, Oprah Winfrey,
Jason Fladlien, and you, all have in common? Keep reading and it
will become very clear.

I recently recommended Jason Fladlien’s 48 Hour Product course.
I expected it to be a runaway best seller, but even then I wasn’t
prepared for the stampede we had. Cool, I was right about that one.

And I think I’m going to see the same thing happen again today,
because …

I gently twisted Jason’s arm and told him my readers love his
products, and they want more. And so he’s allowing me to offer …

Internet Marketer’s Time Management Course

In a hurry to beat the crowd? You can get it here:
==> Time Management For Internet Marketers

Last time I said money likes speed. In other words, the faster you
can create products, the faster you can get paid. And that’s true,
obviously. But there’s one more part to the equation. How do you
maximize your time, especially if you have other things going on in
your life?

Like a job. Like family responsibilities. Like other projects.
Like unexpected challenges. Like all the other things that take up
your precious hours and stress you out.

Don’t you think you’d be less stressed, and happier, if you could
somehow accomplish more than you seem to be able to, in the same or
less amount of time?

People often say to me “I don’t have time to do this and that and
the other”, and in the back of my mind I say to myself “but the
President of the U.S., Donald Trump, the Pope, and every other
leader that has a thousand things to do every day, and followers
that constantly demand their time, all have the same 24 hours, and
they seem to get things done”.

Remember, you and I have those same 24 hours, a new opportunity
every day.

Now sure, they have people they can delegate to, but in many cases,
the buck stops there, and they have to make maximum use of the same
24 hours that you and I have, they don’t get an extra allotment,
not even the Pope.

So the thing is, how do we make the most of our time, so that we
can get our Internet marketing businesses running full speed ahead,
while still balancing the rest of our lives and careers.

Jason Fladlien isn’t as famous (yet) as the President, the Pope, or
Oprah Winfrey, but he does have time management down to a science.
You’ve seen how he turns out products. You may have read or heard
of his 7 minute article product, where he shows how to write
articles in, yep, 7 minutes.

Or how he creates products in 48 hours.

Lately he seems to be launching new products every week or less.
He creates his own products. He does his own sales letters, his
own emails, his own autoresponder series. He’s in demand as a
coach. And yes, he has a life outside of IM, where he gives
quality time to his family and friends. Not only that, he’s
dealing with the recent tragic death of his 8-year old brother to
cancer, which hit him and the rest of his family like a ton of
bricks.

I’ve seen first hand how Jason created a year’s worth of content
for DailySeminar.com in less than 3 months, that’s 52 video
products and 52 interviews with his partner Robert Plank, most of
which could, and might, be released as stand alone products in the
future… while launching other products at the same time.

I shouldn’t need to try to twist your arm to sell you IM Time
Management, because as a dime sale product, the price is insanely
low. But I am because I want you to have it, and I want you to have
an advantage over other IM’ers that don’t “get it” (either the course
or the value of their time). Get the time management course here.

There was another time management course that came out recently, I
see at this moment it’s sold over 400 copies in a week and it’s
priced at $37. I bought it. It’s good, very good. But relative
to what’s contained in Jason’s course, it doesn’t hold a candle to
it.

Inside Jason Fladlien’s IM Time Management course, you get over 4
hours of videos. You get a 22 page reference guide that will be
your reminder document when you get off track, so that you don’t
have to watch the videos again. You get 7 worksheets for 7
different concepts and personal development traits that you’re
taught. You get companion mp3’s to each of the videos so you can
listen on your mp3 player if you prefer.

You get the original webinar where Jason first conceived of the
product, he spent over 2 hours with a pilot group, got feedback
(all good), refined the agenda, and created the rest of the
content. It includes several people on hot seats with Jason using
their actual problems and challenges and solving them on the spot.

You get another bonus, this one might be worth 10 times the cost of
the entire product alone, if you’re in the position most beginning
IM’ers are, with a job that takes up most of your time. It’s
called “Day Job Liberator”, which explains how you can manage your
time if you only have 1 to 2 hours a day to devote to Internet
marketing. If that’s you, don’t miss this course on time management.

Jason did a follow up webinar after the course had been out for a
while, with customers that joined DailySeminar.com early in its
existence. The customers that purchased the original version of IM
Time Management didn’t get the followup webinar unless they joined
DailySeminar, and there’s no way you can have access to that 1 hour
and 38 minute session either….

Unless you purchase through my link. Yes, Jason is selling resell
rights licenses to others soon, but you won’t get that bonus when
you purchase through them. In fact, not even Jason will offer you
that bonus. In fact, not even Jason CAN offer you that bonus. I
guarantee that, difficult as it may be to believe.

So in actuality, I could be greedy and jack up the price of IM Time
Management. It’s a good course that’s been selling for $37 for
months. With a bonus that’s worth at least another $27 that you
can’t get elsewhere, even if you purchase it from the source
(unless you join DailySeminar.com for $47 a month).

But you know I won’t do that. I’m starting the dime sale at a
single digit price, which increases by a thin dime after every
sale. If you value your time, you won’t waste any more in going
here, because those dime increases do add up fast:
http://www.1kad.com/time

Tell me truthfully, what would it be worth to you if you could
double or triple your productivity, and get your projects done and
making money for you faster, easier, better? What’s an hour of your
time really worth? Compare that to the one time cost of Jason’s
IM Time Management Course, and tell me it isn’t worth every penny,
even if you had to pay that cost every day (you won’t).

I know, I’m among the many (majority?  probably) that hate being marketed to.  Call me on the phone at work or at dinner time, or when I’m trying to relax (I guess that about covers my 24 hours) and try to telemarket to me, and see how annoyed I can get.  Better yet, don’t try it.

Still, marketing has it’s place, and marketers are a necessary industry.

I know, I do one and am the other.

One example brought that to my attention this last week.  I’ve been recommending a package from Chris Endres, called Offline Consultant Toolkit, which is a collection of templates, email messages, videos, and a short eBook which when used properly allows an Internet marketer to show local businesses how to improve their bottom line using email marketing.

For example, a restaurant, when wanting to announce a special deal for St. Patrick’s Day, might send out an email blast to their customers, and offer them a discount.

When I was in retail, which was mostly pre-Internet, when I needed business, I would send out flyers to my customers.  I had a list of about 1000, and preparing, printing, collating, and stamping the darn things would cost me about $1.00 each, so a thousand bucks to announce a sale, and it would take a couple days for the people to start coming in the door, after spending a week or more to get the flyers done.

Today, if I had a retail store, I could type up an email this morning and people would be coming to my store this afternoon.  For virtually no cost at all.

So, that’s a service that many local businesses, many of them unaware of the power of the Internet or email marketing, would pay handsomely for, if only someone would explain and set it up.  Chris’ system does that, and costs peanuts.

So anyway, I recommended this to my own email list, and I got a reply from a guy who should obviously remain nameless, thanking me for pointing him in that direction.  Seems he had recently needed to declare bankruptcy, and down to the bare essentials, he was able to keep his computer, and he figured this was a way to claw his way back.  I think he’s right.

Basically, for the cost of the eBook package, and the determination to walk down his Main Street, or pull phone numbers out of the telephone book, he could help people be more competitive in his home town.  He and I both figured he could easily be making 5K to 10K a month in almost no time.  And the business would build up nicely if he played his cards right.

That’s the way marketers should do their jobs, putting good products and services within reach of their target audience.  My commission on the product referral to this guy was almost nothing, but it has the capability to change his life.

So next time you think you don’t like marketers so you don’t want to be one, give it some extra thought.  Really, we’re here for a reason sometimes, besides wanting to part you from your hard earned dollars.
