Introduction:
Hello there,
Currently I work all over the world with (normally none, but now an unsteady and irregular internet connection.
So far everything I've done was really slow paced, as I could only do some research and online work while being able to go to a restaurant and get free wifi,
Right now I do have at least some internet connection, (56k, satalite) available to me. so I'm going to use this as much as I can to be more productive.
I am going to commit to post here for several reasons.
1) Accountability
2) Possible input from more experienced people and thus an opportunity to learn.
(The things that I post are specific, but also generic as you still don't know what style of fitness product this is about)
My goal:
My immediate goal is to set up a semi-passive income through selling a self-publishing.
Using automatic weekly blog posts and newsletters set up for 1 year in total. to attract attention.
Here's my plan:
I have invested a lot of time making a fitness program that suits my specific needs. As there is no other company or fitness program that fills in the needs of my job and lifestyle.
I decided to use this and write a book about this so I can make some money on the side with it.
Now since this is probably one of the higher quality products out there, I have decided to put it into several products and attempt to monetize it through that way.
(So in short: Spend a lot of time creating a high quality product, then market and sell it for a premium price.)
My plan is:
- Write several "Small" books about specific parts of the program, sell this.
- Have an option available for up-selling DVD's
- Sell the full program at a premium price. (several hundreds of $ for the full package)
- Choice of beginners, intermediate, advanced
- Massive pack: (Includes beginners, intermediate, advanced) (several hundreds of $ for this package.)
In total this will result in:
5 "Small" packages, of each between $49 and $129 , with the option to include DVD (+$20)
3 full programs, of each between $299 and $399
1 massive pack of around $799
(Prices right now are a guestimate, will decide later for the exact prices)
Also I will sell affiliate products which will give me between 50% and 75% commission.
In order to attract traffic, I will have 2 newsletters (one for guests, one for people that bought one of my products)
People will get 2 freebies by signing up for the newsletter.
Things that I've done so far
So far I've done the following:
- Write the different chapters in the book (100% completed)
- Write the details for the different exercises (70% completed)
- Learn how to, and make a website with ecommerce abilities (100% completed)
To do:
In general:
- Get a USD $ account.
- Register as a company in a state with no foreign income taxes
- use the USD$ account to buy a webhost
- Copyright the book/system/dvds
Main product:
- Finish the details for the different exercises
- Make photo's of me, or a model, performing the exercises
- Put the different parts of the book together.
- Finish editing the book
- Copyright the book
- Send out the book to several proofreaders
- Get response and decide what and how to edit.
- Record 2 movies for the DVD, one of me performing, one of me explaining and giving cue's
- Edit the movies into 1 movie.
Website:
- Buy and upload my local website to the chosen webhost
- Integrate the newsletter
- Make sure that the specific online features work (post by email, newsletter, popups, opt-ins, webshop)
- Set dates for all written blogposts to be published
- create newsletter mailinglist (Most likely MailCheat(Chimp))
- Create autoresponder for 1 year to go.
- Set up the different e-mail adresses needed
- Get a designer to make a new banner for my site, as currently I still got the standard wordpress theme's one on there.
- Set up the facebook, twitter, google+ and youtube pages. (And integrate into the website)
other stuff:
- Write guest posts for more famous blogs, magazines, etc.
- SEO optimize the website.
- Read the rest of the downloaded material about copywriting and SEO
- adjust the site and already written blogposts following the copywriting and SEO things that I learn.
- research and find a reliable gateway to be paid in either Paypal, or to the USD bank account that I'll make.
If anyone has ideas of things that I overlook, or overthink, feel free to let me know,
Open to all input.
