Jeremy Schoemaker has launched his Shoemoney System 2.0 today. This coaching program consists of 9 modules to help you learn how to make money online.

He runs through everything about creating the right mindset, to arbitrage (ever wondered what this means, now you can find out), to learning all about internet marketing from the inside out. There is even a section on making money on Facebook. With everyone and their grandmother on Facebook, this is a big opportunity waiting to happen. Everything is online but you will also receive each of the 9 training modules on DVD.  So if you have a slow internet connection or want to watch the video lessons offline, you can do so.

The best part of the Shoemoney System is he is offering it with a 60 day money back guarantee. If you don’t like it or his style is not for you, then you can ask for a refund and receive it with no hassles.

The Shoemoney System also includes 4 conference calls, access to VIP forums where Jeremy & his staff will be online to help you out, and the ability to email his team with questions. That is a bit unheard of, with many marketers hiding their email address behind an outsourced help desk. You will also receive $2500 in advertising credits to try your hand at online advertising with big networks.

This time around the system is a one time charge with no monthly fee. You get access to everything immediately. I am also offering a Shoemoney System Bonus, a 39 page ebook on Business Advertising with Social Media to help supplement your training from Shoemoney.  As soon as your check out, then send me a copy of your email receipt. As soon as I confirm your purchase, I will give you access to the ebook.

Hurry and get in today. You can order through this link here.

If you have been thinking of trying out the Shoemoney System, but have been wanting to try it out for a much lower price tag then now is a great time. They are offering a 15 day trial for only $4.95.

For about the price of a Venti Frappuccino at Starbucks (guess where I am working today) you can get inside and check things out. This is not some limited membership either. You get full access to hours of training videos, audio interviews, and $2500 in advertising money with Google, Yahoo, Facebook and others.

The Shoemoney System is billed as a step by step system that you can follow even if you know nothing about running an online business. There are videos for complete beginners as well as more advanced topics.

Check it out today and see if the Shoemoney System is the right one for you.

One of the things that helps me immensely with any task that I do for my business is to have a system. If I can follow something step by step, then it makes the job much easier and flows much more smoothly. Plus it is a lot more likely to be completed.

Yesterday I watched a video from Michelle Macphearson that really reinforced that. She interviews her brother, gives some tips, and shows how she rides in style.

I learned about a couple of plugins for Wordpress that I have not tried yet, as well as a super easy way to generate content after doing keyword research.

I highly recommend you check it out, it will take you about 15 minutes to watch it. An opt in is required, but well worth the tips and info that you may learn. View Michelle’s Birds Eye View video now.

One of my goals for 2010 is creating my own info product. I have never done so before and doing so for the first time seems very overwhelming and intimidating. I do know that once I cross that hurdle, it will be a process that I will be able to easily reproduce again and again and across multiple niches. Here are some of the reasons for having your own product:

1. Make all the profits. Affiliate marketing is great, but often you are only earning a small percentage of the sale. When you have your own info product you get to keep much more of the sale, which is a great way to build your income.
2. Become an Expert. One of the ways to gain traffic to your site is to be seen as an expert in your field. Other sites are more likely to link to you or ask you to guest post on their blog, if you are an expert. Having a well respected ebook or ecourse is one way to establish yourself as an expert.
3. Stand Out. You will be able to offer a unique product that no one else is offering.
4. Leverage the Power of Others. You know how hard you work as an affiliate to gain sales for other people. Now you can have other affiliates do the same for your product.
5. Gain Trust. Once your customers are happy with your first product, they are very likely to buy subsequent ones as well. This could mean gaining a customer for life.

If this is something that you are interested in, then I highly recommend the Rapid Product Formula training from Nicole Dean and Ronnie Nijmeh. It is a 4 week class that will take you step by step through brainstorming, creating an info product, and marketing it. Sign up now and get an early bird discount. It end tomorrow (Tuesday April 20) at 1pm EST. Class starts next Monday, so don’t delay.

P.S. I am signing up myself and I can’t wait to get started. If you are joining too, I would like to offer a private study group option. We can go over the lessons together and motivate each other. Join me today!

Just a quick note that if you act now you can receive a Rapid Product Formula Discount on the eCoaching and Private Phone Coaching options. Affiliate marketing is great, but having your own product that you can have other affiliates promote is an excellent way to add another stream of income.

I am seriously considering enrolling in on Nicole Dean and Ronnie Nijmeh’s course on creating my own information product. Having two pros give me step by step instruction along with some hand holding along the way, sounds like the best way to learn and create. This course has action steps to help you create your own product within 4 weeks and getting out there promoting it.

Learn more about the Rapid Product Formula training course. There is a short, informative video as well as a write-up of what it entails. If you are an affiliate marketer or blogger, then you will definitely want to check this out.

P.S. Nicole and Ronnie are hosting a training call tomorrow (Wednesday April 14th) that you need to sign up for. Over 800 people have registered and they only have space for 1000. It is a good idea to register now so that you can listen in to their talk on Product Creation De-Mystified.

One of the things that I have on my to do list for this year is creating my own info product. Having one income stream as an affiliate marketer is nice, but I would love to add another stream. One of the ways I hope to do so is by selling my own training course or ebook. I am very much a step by step type of learner though and have been looking for guidance on how to do so. A new training course that is launching soon, may just be the one that I have been looking for.

Nicole Dean, queen of all things PLR, has teamed up with Ronnie Nijmeh to create Rapid Product Formula. This four week course will be guiding students on how to create a unique selling position, rapid product creation, setting up the sale process, marketing, and how to multiply your efforts. There will be weekly lessons, checklists, weekly training, and a weekly Q & A call with Nicole and Ronnie. They will also be offering a level with one-on-one coaching.

They have released a couple of items ahead of the launch of Rapid Product Formula and I have enjoyed both of them so far. The first was a collection of motivational stories. It is a super quick read and I am sure you will be able to relate to at least one of them. The second is a video on making your business special so that people will buy from you rather than the other guy.

I encourage you to download the motivational stories and watch the making your business special video tonight. Let me know what you think in the comments below.

The first thing that people ask me when they find out that I work from home in affiliate marketing is “can you teach me how to do that too?” Have a solid resource is essential and the one that I recommend over and over is the Super Affiliate Handbook. The first version if it was written by Rosalind Gardner years ago and in fact was the first ebook that I purchased to learn more about affiliate marketing. It has been updated many times over the year and I decided last week to get the latest version to see how relevant it still is.

Rosalind has done a great job keeping it current and it was last updated October 2009. Her blueprint for creating a business around affiliate marketing has withstood the test of time. This 210 page ebook starts at the very beginning explaining what affiliate marketing is and the 6 different ways that you can earn money. She has tips on how to organize your business data (something that is not always my strong point) and what kind of software to use.

She tells you how to find a niche and conduct market research to decide if it will be a profitable one.  She devotes a good deal of time to actually setting up your website, which if you have never done so before, is a great thing to know how to do yourself. Sure you can outsource it, but when you are just getting started you may not have the money to invest in that. Plus using Wordpress, as both Rosalind and I recommend, makes it so very simple. I love her 10 Design Rules of Thumb that will help you to build a functional website while avoiding some no-nos.

Content is such a key part of any website and it is what gets your visitors to your site and keeps them sticking around to buy. Rosalind gives tips on ways to build content, even if you are not a writer. Her use of product reviews is what turns readers into buyers and she gives instructions on how to write a compelling product endorsement. She even gives 25 pre-built headlines for article writing that you can just plug your relevant keywords into. Very handy!

Once you have your niche and your website then you need a way to monetize it. The Super Affiliate Handbook has details about the various ad networks that you can use to earn money with as well as the top affiliate networks (although personally I wish she would have mentioned Shareasale). She has 20 questions to ask before joining any affiliate program to decide if it is the best one for your site.

Just building a site and putting it on the internet is no guarantee that you will get traffic or earn money. It is important to market it. Rosalind offers 31 different ways to do so, including both online and offline methods, as well as some things to avoid.

Wrapping up she offers tips on managing your business, how to grow your business, ways to solve problems, and an appendix filled with resources.

I offer my Super Affiliate Handbook video review for you to watch below. Notice my multiple use of the word ‘great’ and how polished I sound

If you are interested in starting your own affiliate marketing business or already have one and want a plan that you can follow time and time again, then I highly recommend that you download the Super Affiliate Handbook.

Just a heads up that the Jeremy Schoemaker has reopening his Shoemoney System to new members.  Based on early feedback from current members they have rearranged the training materials so that members can make their first $100 within the first 30 days and $500 within the first 60 days of belonging.

I am not a member, so I did some digging for reviews. It sounds like many people feel the system was built for the very beginner.  It also sounds like Shoe may have been listening and that is why he has revamped things.

Fortunately if you are interested you can check it out risk free for 60 days with his money back guarantee.  I’m not sure how long he will be reopened for, so check it out today.

One of the toughest things about affiliate marketing seems to be getting started. Across the board one of the most common questions that I hear is “How do I find a niche?” or “How do I find a niche that will make money?” This very question is the one that seems to paralyze most people from ever taking any action. Over the weekend I downloaded a $7 report called How to Uncover a Hot Profitable Niche in a Few Hours from Susanne Myers that answers this question very well and will have you on your way to setting up your first money making website.

Starting off she gives a definition of a market and a niche within the market and then why it is important to define your target market.  Finding a niche is often very easy, but the trouble is in finding a hot niche. Susanne describes how she had a great niche website with a steady stream of traffic, but it just wasn’t making her much money at all.  She says there are two big motivators that turn people into buyers and she goes into depth talking about them and how you can use it to your advantage.

Whenever Susanne is considering a new niche she has several tests that she runs on the idea before deciding it would make a profitable website or not.  I picked up some really great tips in this section.  They are all very easy tests to run that won’t take you very long either.

This report is a real gem at such a low price.  Plus it comes with a bonus report on Niche Solution Strategies.  If you have been sitting around not taking action or have some websites already that are just not making money, then you need this report. Download it today and get working on a profitable niche in just a few hours.

As you may or may not know (from the number of emails in your inbox today) Andy Jenkin’s Video Boss training course is launching today.  Precisely at 4pm EST.  Which means that the super awesome free training videos that he has up are most likely going away.

If you are interested in doing video at all, go and download all the videos right now.  He gave away so much information for free, that you seriously don’t want to miss out.  He has Video #4 up now and while it mostly talks about the content of the training course, the guest teachers, the price tag and payment plans, it also has some tidbits. Plus it is a great case study to learn from for any future launches you may want to do with your own products.

Plus if you are interested in signing up for the course, you can get in on the early bird list and be able to sign up an hour before everyone else.  This has definitely been a launch to watch and learn from (in many different ways).

*That is my affiliate link above, just so you know & in case you are one of the people for which Video Boss would be helpful to your business.*
