Making your OWN product.

I have marketed other people’s products for years as an affiliate. I speak at events for Search Engine Workshops, webinars and mentor affiliate marketers. The one thing everyone always asks me is “Do you have a product of your own?- we would love to promote it”. The fact is I really don’t have my own product but I have several IDEAS for one.

I have marketed other people’s products for years as an affiliate. I speak at events for Search Engine Workshops, webinars and mentor affiliate marketers. The one thing everyone always asks me is “Do you have a product of your own?- we would love to promote it”. The fact is I really don’t have my own product but I have several IDEAS for one.

Over the past few weeks I have been watching with interest the buzz about Launch Tree – a Instant Product Development Virtual Workshop. Timing is everything!

I already subscribe to PPC Classroom, which is another Lurn product. I was impressed with the strength and amount of real information on PPC campaigns I could put into practical and profitable use right away. Once I got into the Launch Tree I noticed some of the content is very basic- perfect for newbies. Some experienced marketers think the basic stuff is below them. I beg to differ. A solid training foundation is critical. Take the time to read the basic information, you will lean something new even if you have 17 years in online/affiliate marketing experience like I do.

As I looked through the advanced modules in the workshop the information was much more interesting and meaty, which is what I expect from Anik Singal and Mike Filsaime. I like to go through and take the tests first.( yes there are tests) It is always humbling and fun to see that “You don’t know what you DON’T know”.

An investment of $77 to learn how to do what I have always wanted to do for myself is a no brainer. I have signed up for Launch Tree and would recommend the Instant Product Development Virtual Workshop to you even if developing your own product is not your goal. The workshop will give you a totally new insight on some of the products you are already promoting. I know it has for me.

What should I sell? How can I find a niche?

People always ask what should they sell as an affiliate? How to I get traffic? Which niches will I be successful at?   Here is an excerpt from the GooBert report from Michael Campbell that answers those questions and more.

 

“FINDING YOUR NICHE

 

Ideally, it should something you know a lot about. Something that comes easily to you. Something you’re

familiar with. Something you do or use every day. It could be your cell phone, your car, your hobby or something work related. It could be your area of expertise, degree or study.

If you already know what you want sell, go ahead and jump to the next chapter. But if you’re stuck,

and don’t know what to sell, we’ll do a little discovery process to tap your inner desires and passion.

Let me ask you a question.

What do you love to do?

That is the secret question where opportunities lay. It’s so simple that its constantly overlooked. But

seriously, what do you spend your time doing?

Some people love their work. For them, its easy to write about their experiences, training and

expertise. For others work is just a job. If you’re in that category, look to your hobbies, or things

that you enjoy doing.

I’ve done this discovery process with hundreds of people. Even those who claim they’re dumb as a

stump and don’t know anything.  Everyone has something that they get comments on.

People notice you and tell you that you’re good at it, or know a lot about it, whatever that “IT” is

for you.”

GooBert is the fastest way to get traffic and start generating revenue from affiliate programs.

There’s nothing risky about it. It’s easy to do and it doesn’t involve PPC (pay per click) advertising

or any additional expenses.

All you need is access to the internet, a domain name, basic hosting and a WordPress blog. That’s

all you need and it works like magic.

It takes about 30 minutes a day, but you can spend more time on it if you like. It’s up to you. Remember,

the harder you work, the luckier you’ll get.  So why not turn on the TV a half hour later?

Wouldn’t you rather be building your future instead?
