How to Build a $20 Million Dollar Info Marketing Business…

On a quick note my wife and I are back from Paris, we had a REALLY great time, will blog all about it soon.
For now I want to talk about where I see my business going. The fact is I don’t see myself doing strictly affiliate marketing for the rest of my life, I’ve already began shifting my efforts into more sophisticated business models.
I’ve already started an information marketing business through my Super Affiliate Accelerator Coaching Program that I’m doing with Andrew Wee (we are currently preparing for a second launch a month or two from now).
There’s HUGE income potential in information marketing, and one of the TOP guys in this space is a guy by the name of Eben Pagan. You may have heard of him, he’s the man behind the phenomenal success of DoubleYourDating.com.
I’ve been following Eben for sometime now and I’m blown away by his insights on business building and information marketing.
What’s cool is that he says the best way to get started is to first sell your own ebook straight up through Adwords OR promote an affiliate product through Adwords.
This is not surprising at all, the fact is ppc affiliate marketing is the best way to get a crash course on all the fundamental elements of online marketing & direct marketing.
Once you’ve master the fundamentals of getting traffic through ppc and converting that traffic to generate sales, you’re now ready to start building your own product and a customer list.
Let’s face it, the big money in online marketing is in making repeat sales to your customer list, not on the one time sale that we as affiliates focus on.
I’ve already started shifting my future projects in this direction so I can ultimately build a solid 8 figure business. This is my long term business strategy.
Do you have a clear vision of where you want to take your business 5 or 10 years down the road from today?
PS Yes, I will talk about the recent Google Slap, still investigating what’s actually happened.

Do you even work any more?
Welcome back. Post some pictures when you get a moment.
Regarding your product/strategy diversification plan - good idea. Affiliate marketing is a great way to make money online (the best I’ve found), but it’s always good to look into new opportunities as they come along.
Instead of having hundreds of thin sites optimized for paid search, I hope to have dozens of fat community sites with more organic/viral/sticky traffic.
It’s a lot more work, but it’s nice knowing your reach extends beyond the Googlesphere…
Thanks for that link Amit. Didn’t know about Eben until you pointed out.
Definitely Eben is a top guy, i really like his talk about Werner Erhard, Bandler Grinder, hero journey (Joseph Campbell), etc etc like i think the super readers are the top in any industry, this is one of the Eben’s key success. Amit you need to watch new Werner Erhard documental
Amit,
I totally agree with your agenda. A smart thought on how to maximize your knowledge to gain both profit and businesses stability.
My path in the internet business was in the opposite way: developing products => sales/affiliate marketing.
At the end of the day the key skill to success is the art of sales. Once you are familiar with it you better use it in a smart way.
BTW, it was very pleasure to meet you in Vegas.
Eben is the KING! I have friends who did his Altitude course for $10k a seat. They have all made their money back with his teachings.
Repeated sales –> Thats where famous marketing factor “Life Time Value” of a customer comes in. I am pretty sure everyone might have heard, “It is atleast 5 times harder to sell a product or service to a new customer compare to existing customer”.
Good luck with your plan.
Now, THAT is a valuable video!
Is he the dating guy?
Amit,
Great blog! Eben is very, very good too.
Let me know when your Super Affiliate Accelerator Coaching Program opens up. I am ready to master PPC and take my business to the next level.
thanks,
Pete
