May 28, 2009Please do not post or mention specific products. I am just interested in the process.
It is buying and selling on ebay? …
Building web pages with advertising? …
Selling products using drop-shippers? …
Selling other people's products for commissions? …
I realize they may be all good and it might depend entirely on the individual, but I guess I am looking for the easiest and more successful ways to make money online.
I am not looking for a get rich quick scheme … tried and true processes are fine with me. I am also not interested in filling out any surveys for money either …
Mark,
Great Question. Like you said it really depends on the person. Buying and selling on ebay is good if you have a product people are going to want. As far as drop-shipping it can be profitable, but I would really do my research and make sure you have a reputable company. If you'd like (I don't want to give you any links to deter you here) I can link you to a site that has a review of various popular drop-shipping companies.
Building webpages with advertising probably isn't as easy as blogging with adsense which is a similar approach, but then you're studying things like SEO (search engine optimization), etc so that you're able to keep sending large amounts of targeted traffic to you site and that's not easy either. As far as affiliate marketing (selling other people's products) again you're going to run into the traffic problem.
I'd say there's two easier ways of earning money online.
1.) Create your own product (information product – ebook perhaps) in a niche that's both popular and not over populated if that makes sense. Give your visitors something of REAL value and build from that with a lead capture page, an opt-in mailing list, etc to get some people to market your product for, and then guess what? Apply ALL of those other things. Sell the product on ebay…. Make a blog discussing the product and send people there. Make your own little network promoting that product and earn money all the various ways.
2.) The easiest way (IF you know which ones to use) is to do Multi-Level Marketing. The product is already there for you. They've already given you all the tools to promote and all you have to do is get referrals and start earning residual income. If you find one that's reputable and has great value and tools it's easy to promote and easy to make money, and then you can do #1 and use all the tools from the MLM company to promote/advertise your own product. It's all a HUGE cycle and it's a matter of putting it all together. MLM is probably the quickest way to get in the profit though and one that will ALWAYS be earning you money long after you've begun work on other ventures.
Hope this answers most of your questions.
