Leveraging the Success of Others

You most likely hang around with other Internet marketers online. That’s a wonderful thing– online marketing can be so isolating, especially when you work for yourself from home. But, as humans, we’re naturally drawn to working with other people. We crave social interaction. Just because we work online and maybe even usually prefer to work alone and definitely prefer working for ourselves doesn’t mean we work in a vacuum.

All that is to say that you can often dramatically increase the chances of your success by leveraging the success of others in joint venture partnerships. It happens all the time and, as long as it’s done well, it’s silly to pass the opportunity by. This will only work right if you’ve built up strong relationships with other marketers already, of course. If you don’t have those strong relationships, that’s something to work on and build.

Do you have marketer friends you feel would support you, especially if there was something great in it for them? That’s often the trick when you approach other people for JV opportunities– you can’t present it as you needing something; you have to present it as this amazing thing you can do for them and something out-of-this-world you can achieve together.

Copywriting as a Service

One of the best, fastest, and often easiest ways to earn money is by offering an in-demand service. If you can find something others are willing to pay you for, that they can’t necessarily do themselves, you can earn handsomely.

One of the best groups to target as a service provider is business owners. The business-to-business market is thriving and it most likely always will be.

Of course, some of the services you might provide seem a bit oversaturated. If you’re a writer, there’s plenty of business out there for you, but how do you really differentiate yourself? There are plenty of writers out there who are offering their services at bottom of the barrel prices.

That’s not exactly exciting if you’re a writer or you’re keen on offering writing services but you’re not sure how you’ll set yourself apart. I will say– there are plenty of ways you can set yourself apart as a freelance writer.

Your Coaching Sales Page

It’s very important to pay close attention to your coaching sales page. Coaching is typically a higher end service – perhaps higher end than you’re used to. That means it can pay off to spend more time and care on crafting the sales letter.

Of course, that’s not a universal rule or anything like that. There are certainly those well-known coaches who could put up nothing but a buy button and instantly sell out of all their coaching spots.

Why is that the case? Well, it’s generally a matter of reputation and relationships. If you have a stellar reputation in your niche and you have really solid relationships with the people of your niche then the chances are good you can get away with a bare bones sales page.
