$6,000 From Ready-Made Oto’s And Bonuses

Now here’s an interesting case study.

It’s about someone who profits from something I’ve bought a lot of in the past, but finding good quality ones today is getting harder.

Which is why a coaching student of mine who makes around $6k a monthly from selling these ready-made, plug in and forget OTO and upsell pages, and bonus packages.

Why do I buy these?

Well I test out a LOT of squeeze pages to see what conversions I can get.

And sometimes I don’t have anything that ‘fits’ as the OTO so I want something I can just ‘plug in’ to collect any sales and help cover my traffic costs

Years back the most common upsell or OTO was a huge bundle of ebooks with PLR rights.

They usually converted pretty well and you could buy a ready-made OTO package that you just put your own Paypal button on and uploaded to your site

Creating the product yourself would have been a NIGHTMARE because you had to find maybe 100 ebooks, make sure you had the rights to sell them, list them all on the sales page with nice graphics, descriptions and the rest.

It could literally take days to build an OTO site like in this way.

Whereas for $97 you could buy the whole thing, rights and all, do a bit of linking and upload it to your server in minutes.

Bung it behind your squeeze page and BOOM – instant OTO sales

You don’t see them much today although the premise is totally the same

Creating a product is hard enough for many people so creating an upsell as well is just too much for them.

But NOT having an upsell in any funnel is crazy because you’re leaving money on the table, I’m sure you’ll agree

The answer?

A ready-made OTO or upsell that you can just plug in at the back of your funnel to make sales from.

Which is what my student does.

He doesn’t mess around with ebooks, he find plugins instead (much higher perceived value) and buys the rights to bundle and resell them.

He usually collects around 8 or 10.

Enough to make it an irresistible deal but not enough to make them look too plentiful

Once he’s found them and bought them he sends the details over to his webbie who builds the sales page for him

He themes them together in different OTO bundles too – social media plugins to complement social media products, traffic plugins to complement traffic products and so on.

He makes around $6k a month from these and from the ready-to-go bonus packs he offers too.

You know the bonus offers you see at the bottom of many sales pages?

Grab this now and get this bonus pack worth $197 or whatever – he makes those too

Simple thing I know but SO popular still. You’ve opted in to funnels from different marketers but found many of them have the same backend OTO offer?

Chances are they’re buying from my student.

Great idea eh?

How to Do 4X More

What does it mean to improve? How many steps will it take before it’s inevitable that you succeed? What will it take to earn more?

I find it always helps to have some kind of number in mind when you talk about improvement. Being specific is the best way to accomplish your goals and earn more with everything you do.

You can play around with this number, but I want you to try to earn 4X times more from everything you do. I want you to earn 4X more from your products, your services, and from all of your promotions.

Does that sound a little lofty? If you’re particularly unsure, or just want to make sure this works first, it’s fine to strive to earn 2X more from everything you do. The important thing is to keep that number in mind as you make these tweaks and improvements.

$3,000 A Month From Flippa Sites

This isn’t anything unique because I know of at least 3 people personally (including me) who are currently doing this.

But it works really well, and if it works who cares if it’s unique, has pink spots or drives a Fiat?

AND and there’s room for many more people to get in on the action too

The technique is simply this:

It involves an initial outlay of usually a few thousand dollars to buy sites that other people are selling on Flippa.com

I expect to pay between $2,000 and $4,000 for the sites that I buy.

I expect each site to bring me a residual monthly income of $500 – $1000 depending on the site and how much I paid for it

To give you an example, one site I just lost out on (was outbid and missed the end of the auction) was based in the diet niche.

It sold for around $4,000, was bringing constant monthly revenue of around $900, mostly from an existing ebook (the ebook was part of the sale), Adsense ads on the site and Clickbank ads.

It was getting over 12,000 unique visitors a month and was three years old so the traffic and monthly income was well established.

It also came with around 3,000 followers from associated Facebook, Pinterest and Twitter accounts that came with the sale.

There wasn’t a mailing list included with this particular site but I especially look for sites that DO have mailing lists because they’re very profitable for me because of my existing business set-up.

It was a good deal at 4k because if the monthly income averaged out at $900 a month as it was currently doing I would have more than doubled my investment in 12 months.

So in essence the site would then have paid for itself and I could either continue to take the monthly revenue of to flip it for a lump sum

You might wonder why someone would sell a site making $900 a month for $4,000?

Well me too I but I no longer make the mistake of trying to work out their reasons. I do my due diligence and if the site stacks I’ll buy it.

For all I know the person might have financial problems or need the money for another investment or just might be bloody bored of running the thing.

It only needed a few hours’ work in ‘upkeep’ but that can be easily outsourced.

So you can see why I was pissed off that I lost out on that one – someone got a bargain.

A friend of mine – the 3k income in the headline –  recently bought a site aimed at potential writers (I’ve got one of those too actually) and is currently making around $3,000 a month in revenue from a site that cost him $4500 several months back.

It was making around $600 a month when he bought it but he tweaked it, changed the ads and got an SEO person on board (cost him $250) but it was well worth it

In fact I can’t stress enough that the most profitable skill you can have when buying and developing websites is to look at what they’re lacking.

If the SEO needs work (ask an expert for an appraisal) then getting a pro on the job will increase the revenue

If the ads need to be more targeted then work on that, or if any lists or Facebook page that comes with the site (a lot do these days) isn’t being monetized enough then work on that aspect.

In my experience there’s usually something you can do to increase the revenue you get from any site.

If you have some seed money, buying sites that bring residual income is a really good way to build an online business.

I highly recommend it, although it takes some balls the first time you spend four figures on binary code :)

And if it doesn’t work out you can usually resell it and make your money back on the sale
