4 Things You Must Do To Create an Autopilot Internet Business
Most Internet Marketers claim that they have businesses running on autopilot, and they have been pretty successful with it. However, the fact is that they still have to compose emails now and then - they have created "push button income" systems, instead of complete autopilot businesses. How then do you create a fully automated system? Here are four tips.
Tip 1 - Email Follow Ups, Not Broadcasts
Most marketers build a huge list and then broadcast to this list when they have created a joint venture with someone else. The fact is, in doing this - there are two flaws. First, if you don't want to create your own product, you have to keep being in the loop of other marketers to do joint ventures. This is largely not automated. Secondly, you still need to craft an email every time you want to promote something.
Consider this instead; put your promotions in email follow ups, not one off broadcasts. This way, every subscriber to your list will get this email, whether they have joined early or late.
Tip 2 - Subscription or Consumables, Not One-off Products
The second thing you need to do is to look at the products you are promoting. Are they bringing in money for you on a subscription basis, or do you just sell and get money one off? The key is to look for subscription products, or consumables, where people will have to either pay a monthly fee or will buy the same product again and again. This way, you promote only once, but the money comes in forever.
Tip 3 - Let Someone Else Handle the Product Support
Product support can sometimes be one of the most time wasting headaches for an Internet marketer. Imagine writing a piece of software, and then having to answer to all the support queries and fixing the bugs. You will land yourself into more stress than ever! My recommendation is to look into options to outsource the support of the product. Pay for it if you need to, time is more important than money if you want to create a autopilot business.
On the other hand, you can also consider selling only other people's products and let them handle the support. There are programs out there that allow you both monthly subscription income and yet outsourced support. Just take time to look for them.
Tip 4 - Let Someone Else Handle the Marketing
The last and the most important tip is to let someone else handle the marketing. When you are the marketer, you are in a job. When you own a business, you need to create systems to train people to do the marketing for you. The most important thing in a autopilot businesses is the training systems.
To do this, you need to invest time. Time for you to create a step-by-step training system that gets others to do the marketing for you. That way, all you have to do is to recruit your affiliates one time, and passive income will come because your affiliates are motivated and well equipped to do the marketing for you. When you recruit your affiliates, your income increases, if not, income will still continue to flow.
