Okay, I’m going to tell you the best way to earn money online.
But before I do that, let me tell you a story…
Years and years ago, after a major failure in my life where my business, my marriage and many of my friendships imploded, I was literally left with nothing.
Nothing…
Not only was I financially bankrupt, but I was morally depleted. It was probably the lowest point in my life.
And I needed to find a way to make some money…
The only thing I had was a laptop and an internet connection.
I was living in my mother’s spare bedroom because I couldn’t afford my own place, let alone even afford anything to eat.
So I did the only thing that I could do at the time…
I read and I wrote like the wind.
Seriously, like the wind…
I locked myself into a room and studied and wrote for 6 months.
It was brutal.
I barely saw the light of day and I’m not exaggerating this at all.
By far, this was the most difficult point in my life that I’ve ever had.
My point?
In that span of 6 months, I wrote about a dozen books and absorbed so much knowledge that it was probably uncanny. Most of the books that I wrote initially were about search engine optimization, online marketing and self-development.
So I created the basis for one passive income stream: ebooks.
With ebooks, I’ve literally made hundreds of thousands of dollars.
But I don’t think that’s the best way to make money online.
Not today at least.
It’s too saturated and too competitive and Amazon’s algorithms have changed. Today, overall exposure is far more dictated by an initial surge in sales and reviews than much else, which is hard to support unless you really really know what you’re doing.
It’s not impossible. But I wouldn’t call it the best way to make money..
My point?
I created a basis for something bigger with a 5-figure-per-month passive income stream.
To me. At that time. It was huge.
However, from there I started getting into courses. I wanted to teach in a different medium and I became obsessed with courses. I didn’t really understand marketing to the degree that I do today, but I just figured it would be an additional passive income stream. And it was.
I’ve sold tens of thousands of courses on platforms like Udemy and others, creating another healthy stream of passive income.
But again, I don’t think that’s the best way to make money online.
It wasn’t until I discovered what sales funnels were that I truly made that switch in my mind where I was able to go from a 5-figure-per-month income to a 6-figure-per-month income.
Sales funnels.
That’s it. That’s where the magic happens.
I recently wrote an article in Entrepreneur Magazine about sales funnels. I would suggest you read it if you’re serious about understanding what it really is.
Now, sales funnels are rather complex. But once you understand what they are, this single concept can literally make you millions of dollars if you employ it the correct way.
In fact, the world’s most successful internet marketers are sales funnel fanatics. No, seriously.
But what is a sale funnel?
Simply this. It’s a multi-step system that takes a browser and converts him or her into a buyer. That’s all.
Sounds easy enough, right?
In theory, yes. In practice, definitely not.
Why is the sales funnel so important? Because most people will never buy from you on the first interaction. Unless you’re an Amazon or an Apple or Microsoft or some other brand they trust, they will never buy from you on the first interaction.
And why should they?
They don’t know who you are.
Even if you appear in the number one position on Google, seldom do transactions happen without deploying a carefully concocted sales funnel.
Ever wonder why most blogs and other website try to bribe you to get your email address by offering you some free ebook or trial to some software or something else?
Yep. You guessed it. They want you to enter their sale funnel.
When you build a sale funnel correctly, you can sell on autopilot. You use an email autoresponder sequence to actively communicate with those people automatically on a pre-set an pre-determined schedule.
I call this my cash machine.
Because it literally helps you make money while you sleep.
And you have full control over the traffic and the process and you’re not locked into a platform like Amazon or Udemy that doesn’t give you the customers’ contact details to market to them directly.
But when you have their info, and they purchase one of your products or your services through your sales funnels, then you can easily tag and re-market to those people.
This is by far the best way to make money online.
My suggestion?
You need to build a sale funnel and you need to find a traffic source. Begin by starting a blog that’s going to be topical to whatever you’re selling. This way, you can drive relevant traffic to your site.
Then, make sure you install a Facebook or Google pixel for re-targeting. This way, even if they leave your site without entering your sale funnel, you can re-market to them through re-targeting.
I know it might all sound fairly complex at this point. But if you’re going to learn anything about making money online. Then you need to learn this.
This is the pathway to true online wealth. That’s it.
