==> http://www.RecurringRevenueRevolution.com

Here’s what you’ll discover during this FREE training:

* The breakthrough money-making business model that can at least triple your income in half the time, and completely change your life!

* The four types of income every coach and expert entrepreneur should create to enjoy a huge income growth without working crazy hours!

* The specific ways to think about your expertise to create LOTS of passive income streams in your business.

* Strategies for creating consistent monthly income streams, and the biggest mistakes people make when trying to do that.

The experience was truly transformational for all of us, and I wanted to share a few things I learned this week:

1. There are hundreds of ways to create a successful business, but only a handful are right for YOU. Take your time identifying your skills, passions, and dreams before investing too much time or money into your business.
2. The “guru” doesn’t have all the answers. What works for your mentor or your colleagues may not always work for you. Get advice from others, but use your own goals and skill set as filters for deciding how to proceed.
3. When shifting into another business model, be patient. New revenue streams may take time to show up in your life, but when they do, you’ll love the new ways you’re creating income and can slowly let the old ways go.
4. It can be both, scary and exciting to create new income opportunities in your business. But as long as you’re more excited than scared, it’s okay to move forward!
5. Nothing is ever wasted in business. Even if you created a product and put it out there, and nobody bought, you haven’t really wasted anything. Now you know how to go through the process of creating and launching a product, and can do it over and over again, getting better with each try.

Most importantly, surround yourself with people who can support you and love you no matter what, and give you the courage to keep growing your business!

Here are just a few photos from my mastermind retreat:

I discovered how to create income on demand by doing simple product launches, and here I revealed how you can do the same:

“Create Income on Demand: How to Fill Your Programs, Sell Your Products, and Generate Thousands of Dollars Any Time You Wish Using Simple Product Launches”

• My “awesome opt-in video” formula that will help you attract lots of sign-ups and fill your mailing list with people interested in buying.

Plus, I’manswering your biggest questions about product launches LIVE! This training is FREE!

Ready to get started with your product launch? You can begin generating ideas for your launch as soon as you join my group mentoring program with Lesson #1: Discovering Your BIG IDEA!

She tried to publish an e-zine, submit articles, learn about search engines, and host teleclasses.

Her colleagues told her to do more free sessions with prospects, but she had very limited time and, frankly, wasn’t really good at it.  Her coach told her to get out and speak to networking groups, but she had two children at home and didn’t want to travel.  Her husband told her to lower her rates, but that only attracted “nightmare” clients.

Nothing she ever did generated much business, so she continued to struggle.

Then one day she discovered a marketing strategy that changed her life. She started selling thousands dollars worth of her coaching products and programs, top industry leaders wanted to work with her, and she no longer worried about money.

If you thought this story was about me, you were right! After struggling to sell my products and get clients online, I stumbled upon a marketing strategy that generated over $40,000 the first time I used it. Learn more here: http://www.MyFirstBigLaunch.com

But let’s face it—they also signed up because doing so was free, so there was no risk for them to do so.  In return, you send them information at no cost every time you update your blog or publish an issue of your ezine.  So how do you get these subscribers or followers to say an enthusiastic “yes” when it comes to the fee-based products and programs that you offer?

• Know your target market’s deepest hopes and fears. What exactly does your client yearn for?  What breaks her heart?  What does she feel is missing from her life?  The more specific you get about the needs and desires of your potential clients, the more likely you’ll develop programs and Web copy that resonates with them.

• Ask questions that they can say “yes” to. Based on what you’ve outlined above, write those hopes and fears in the form of questions.  For example, suppose you specialize in working with people who are is underemployed and/or under-utilized at work.  You can ask questions like “Does your present job bore you to tears?  Would you love to have a career that you feel passionate about?”  If your target market consists of people in need of work/life balance, your questions might include “Do you feel as though you never have time to do anything you want to do?” or “Has being all work and no play damaged your relationship with your children?” When your questions speak directly to a person’s pain points, he or she is more open to considering purchasing something that promises to ease the pain.

• Remove or minimize the risk of buying from you. Remember that the reasons people signed up for your ezine or blog feed were the opportunity to receive information they needed at no financial risk to themselves.  Make sure that your products and program offers have the same dual impact.  Providing a generous money-back guarantee minimizes the risk factor of purchasing from you; delivering high quality products that address your customers’ needs minimizes your need to have to issue refunds on purchases—a win-win for everyone!

• Make it as easy as possible for potential customers to order and pay. Every added step to the purchasing process allows your buyer-to-be a fresh opportunity to question his or her purchasing decision, and perhaps abandon it altogether.  One- and two-click check outs have the greatest conversion rate, as the transaction gets completed before the customer can experience any misgivings about how or why he or she is making the purchase.

Of course there are dozens of other marketing and copywriting techniques you can and should utilize in order to increase the sales of your programs and products, but these four are the most basic and critical.  Get these down pat and watch your bottom line grow accordingly.
