Huge Opportunities For Profit With Video
Have you noticed the trend of video products recently?
I have, it gives us a huge opportunity to make money online. Just think about how much traffic YouTube alone has – it’s the #3 most visited site and combine that with Google’s favoritism toward video and the numerous other video sites it’s obvious there is a TON of traffic in video.
…That means a lot of potential profits
I’ve been watching closely as several video products have been released and several different business models have came up related to video.
I started my internet marketing video channel (actually my 2nd one) in 2009. To be completely honest some of my best customers have come from those who found one of my videos and joined my list, I know this because they have actually told me that’s how they found me. That’s within internet marketing which is not a popular subject on YouTube.
It’s time to capitalize on video traffic (if you haven’t already)
In my opinion there are a few valid options for creating a business around video. You really have 2 options…
1 Post A Ton Of Videos
This is probably the most beginner friendly option because you don’t need to have your own website and you can create or borrow videos fairly easily.
What you want to do is promote an affiliate/CPA product (or your website) in the video description. So it’s important that you choose a topic that can be monetized even the super popular general interest video topics can actually be monetized because you can promote a general interest offer such as satellite TV, free electronics or ring tones… you get the idea.
Recently a new product was released for this business model that I picked up (I actually know of another similar software that’s sold for $1997+) You can check it out here
If you choose to purchase the software I highly recommend skipping the $197 upgrade and getting the $97 upgrade – which in my opinion is better than the software advertised on the main sales page.
2 Create Video Syndication Sites
The second option is to create sites centered around video, There are a few reasons you would want to do this…
Search engines (especially Google) like sites with video because visitors stay on the sites longer and as a result the search engines know that the site provides helpful information to the visitor.
I ran across this amazing software a few days ago that actually creates video sites in under a couple hours and get this the site pulls in 1,000s of visitors without spending time on backlinks… pretty awesome right?
I actually just set up my first video site right using it. Check out my site here http://fitnesscast.net
If you want to check out the software that creates the site you can get a discount on the warrior forum for it by going here
That’s not an affiliate link, I just wanted to share it with you because for the right person this could be life changing.
If you do choose to take the opportunity to start one of these businesses, I’m currently available for coaching (if you want it) which you can find out more about by clicking the work with Jeff link above.
Until next time,

If I Gave You Valuable Information Would You Use It?
If you have ever bought and actually went through one of my products before or even my abundance of free information, then you know I am all about over delivering and providing the best value for both your time and money…
They both have a cost, you see my time is valuable and so is yours
I respect that and I genuinely care about you and your success…
Then why aren’t you successful? (yes, I know some of you are)
It’s because you’re NOT doing enough of your part…
Do you really make the best use of your time? How valuable is your time?
If you’re like most, sadly – you don’t
I can tell you exactly what to do, but if you don’t actually consume the information (which looses most people)
Then actually take action on it (by now 98% of the people are gone to the next thing)
How the heck are you going to make any money? …if you have the answer to that then please let me know
For instance in my last blog post I gave away 3 potential full time businesses that wouldn’t really require much work to get going. I could have charged $1,000 for that same information and maybe I will once I really got it all down, yet I’m willing to bet most of you didn’t read the entire thing – you can read it here at 3 Passive Income Streams.
Hardly anyone commented on that post, to me that means your spending way too much time running around in circles grabbing more and more information without actually going through the information you know is good {hint: like my stuff}
Beyond that, how many people actually implemented anything I said on that blog post? …I’d be surprised if anyone did and I know it could bring you a full time income easily if you really took action on it …it’s upsetting what’s really going on in internet marketing right now.
I have to ask again… do you value your time enough to take action on this stuff?
…If not then you’re never going to make it in this business!
Okay so you got great information, but how do you become productive and actually take action on it, right?
How do you actually get things done?
For most people they don’t have a clue!
I’m pretty good at time management, but I’m not great… you see I bought this time management course from Jason Fladlien a year ago and it helped me tremendously, now he’s got another time management course that just blew me away – he actually makes the bold claim that you’ll double your productivity < See for yourself
…if it came from anyone other than Jason, I would say Bull
To be honest he’s downplaying it, you’ll probably get way more out of it then that, if you really want to get stuff done (it’s how you actually make money) then don’t think twice about picking it up – instead of buying one of those products that don’t even tell you what the heck they’re selling.
What are you waiting for… go pick up Jason’s product and come back to read this – your online business success depends on this!
You back? Great, here’s why you need to over deliver…
The online business world is getting crowded and it’s only going to get more crowded…
The smart marketers know they have to do something different and unfortunately many ‘email marketers’ are resorting to deceptive subject lines and the # of visitors they can get to a web page as their ‘edge’
Personally I think that’s the lame ‘easy’ way out…
A better alternative is to over deliver – when you provide a ton of value then people are more than willing to return the favor and it’s not just about how much you can provide (nobody will use anything from a bundle of 25 or more).
Here’s why it works…
1 You show that you have a lot to offer (including good helpful information)
2 You invoke the law of reciprocity… when you’re seen as someone who over delivers people learn to expect that from you and become addicted to the value you provide (especially those who take action on it).
I don’t want to hide that from you, in fact I want you to know exactly why I’m over delivering
I know this works because just this week I’ve had someone tell me that’s why he wants personal coaching from me, he took action, he got results, he seen the immense value that I provide and in return he’s willing to pay more for even more of that value!
…don’t doubt yourself that you can’t provide value, you just have to spend the time to learn good information and translate it into your own product, then sell it for a good deal – then you’ll stand out and people will want to get more from you.
To summarize, it’s all about acting on good information, to do this you need to be productive. Then once you learn a lot about the subject it’s time to over deliver with your own products to open up a lot more possibilities for your customers and your business.
Do this and I guarantee you’ll be more successful than 99% of the people reading this blog post, hey you actually only have to beat 1% because 98% of people never made it this far
Thanks for your valuable time,
Why I’m Changing My Business – 3 Passive Income Streams
Here’s the thing, I’m completely changing my business and I want you to know about it…
Recently, I’ve been looking to do 2 things in my business… # 1 deliver more quality content because there’s too many marketers (almost all of them) that are skipping quality content altogether and going the route of promoting free or paid products only.
While that’s where the money is actually made, it’s also important to build up the knowledge of your existing customers. If you learn something new than, that tells me I’m doing my job and it shows you that I care about you and want you to succeed – and that ain’t a bunch of crap!
Like Frank Kern says “give cool stuff to your list (followers) …and they’ll actually want more from you” or something like that (I’d be doing a disservice to you if it where any other way). I agree with that 100% yet I know many of you don’t have the time for info overload. That’s why I’m trying to deliver a healthy balance of good info you can actually use and make money with – sounds like exactly what you need right?
OK Cool
Now on to #2 you’ll love this…
“Passive Income”
That’s what I’m going to be focusing more of my business on & it’s really why I got into internet marketing in the first place. We all want more time to have fun right? …yet most internet marketers work 12+ hours a day, how are you going to enjoy life doing that? …you won’t have time!
…then we need to get working on setting up some passive income streams!
I’ve been slacking on my ‘work’ lately and this is why passive income works for me, as I’m sure it would work for you. What can I say? I like to enjoy life and my freedom from the 9 to 5 ‘day job’ and I want to help you get the same. Plus having fun on the boat during the week is awesome …I had the whole lake to myself a few times!
That’s why I’ll be revealing some great stuff right here and now to get you going…
There’s 2 good ways to work less and still make good money… focus (on what will have the biggest impact) and automation as much as possible through setting up systems for the best time management and using automation software.
There’s a lot of automation software out there and it really depends on your business model, I’ll go over a few of my passive income business models with you here, giving you plenty of great ideas to run with – so you could set up a passive or nearly passive income stream starting today.
Then you have more time to spend on other things – like for me I workout almost every day… I lift weights 2 to 4 days a week (in the summer more like 2) and I also go running a few days per week. It’s great when you make the time to exercise like this because it clears your mind, relieves stress and allows you to build up your energy level and your health …among other things (great for your business and life).
One of my nearly passive income streams is list building, I want to be able to reach a lot of internet marketers that need my help. I do this by doing ad swaps (exchanging subscribers) with part of my list. The cool thing I do that nobody else does is I give you the option to be on my ad swap list or my list that doesn’t get ad swap emails as I know some people like it and some don’t. – It’s an almost completely passive stream of traffic once you got a list going and use automation ad swapping software.
Ok so you still have to write emails, find good products and deliver value… but if you enjoy internet marketing it’s actually a great use of time and doesn’t take that long to maintain once you get going… or you can promote the same stuff I do, trust me I do my homework before I ever recommend you buy a product.
You could also do ‘offline marketing‘ doing simple task for small businesses in your area or another city. I’d consider this passive because you can actually hire someone else to do each of the task required to run this type of business. Although, you may want to actually talk with the business owner personally and make the deals personally (you don’t have to).
Think about it… you can hire someone to make a list of businesses to contact, they simply do Google searches for your local area, or by looking at yellow pages for your area (hint: also has an online version).
Next you would want to find interested clients, you can have others do this as well – like: cold calling, sending emails, sending postcards or letters can all be done by someone else!
Setting up the deal with the small business owner can also be done by someone else (but again you’ll want to consider doing this yourself) Just make sure you find someone that understands marketing and knows how to pitch your service and what price to ask for.
Finally, doing the actual job… this can easily be outsource and for a relatively low cost …and you can charge them $100+ per month on top of the initial charge!
There you have another business that can bring in a lot of money and can be completely passive!
I was thinking I already gave you a lot, but I decided to tell you about another really good passive income stream …that can be completely hands off, just because I like you and I appreciate you reading this – I do!
Blogging
Yup, blogging is one of the best hands off income streams you can create… and with all the new software that comes out on an almost daily basis, it will only get easier to set up passive income using automated blogs.
Personally, I’ve tried blogs that were completely automated and partially automated and would recommend going the partially automated route – think about people and the search engines… they like quality unique content (even if duplicate content penalty is a myth).
The key is to go after low competition keywords if you’re going after search engine rankings – micro niche finder is a great tool for this (saves a ton of time), but you can also go after direct traffic from other sites both free traffic from article directories, forums and other high traffic sites (blogs) and paid traffic like banner ads on popular sites within your niche.
Personally, I like getting article and social media/networking traffic and building up my search engine rankings that way, I target low competition buyer keywords so that it’s easier to rank high in the search engines. If the site really pulls in the money then I’d buy banner advertising on other sites.
There you have it, 3 great almost passive income streams you can start building today… yes, there’s work involved, but it will pay off in the long run, you just got to see the opportunity and go for it!

What’s It Going To Take To Make A Million Dollars?
Is it possible? Can I even do it?
I was laying in bed one day and this thought came into my mind…
What’s it going to take to make a million dollars?
It was interesting because it immediately put my whole business into a different perspective, so I had to share this with you…
First of all I want to make sure you notice exactly what I said…
‘What’s it going to take’
This brings up the thought, is it even possible? Just imagine in your mind… is the thought of making a million dollars a real possibility for you? …I’m guessing it’s a very distant picture
when you think about what it would actually take for you to make a million dollars, maybe you can’t even think of how you would do it (in that case you need to do some work)
Here’s what I first thought it would take for the real possibility of making 1 million dollars
1 I would need multiple steams of income
This would mean that I would need several cash funnels many of them set on autopilot (so you don’t have to spend time keeping them up) spread out over at least a few niches – even if they were in the same large niche. It’s easier to have several smaller successes then 1 large success like creating the next Facebook or something ridiculously unlikely.
2 I would need high priced products
This would mean I would have to focus on niches where high priced products are already selling. To do this I would need to build email list so that I could build up trust by providing value and over delivering on my lower priced products.
3 Lots of traffic that converts into sales
It’s true that with enough quality traffic anyone could make a million dollars. The key is to get visitors that are likely to buy what you have to offer.
This portion of the process will take the most amount of time and would require you to outsource part of the work. Getting traffic is not hard, but getting a lot of traffic takes time and a lot of effort.
Here’s the thing… I’m already working on all of these things and I can actually see my business growing as I learn how to do them better and as I take more action. I can actually see the picture of making 1 million dollars in my mind larger than ever before.
Can you do the same? What’s your plan for making 1 million dollars? Is it even possible for you?
