Dear Entrepreneur, Solo-preneur, or Small Business Owner,
As a savvy business owner or aspiring entrepreneur, you've probably noticed that there's a BIG shift taking place in the way people choose to make money these days.
Just think, how do YOU earn a living right now?
If you're a:
-
Small Business Owner: You likely work 7 days a week. You may have a few employees that help run the show when you're gone, but if you're not regularly involved in the day-to-day, your ship will likely sink.
-
Freelancer/Contractor: You work 10+ hours a day promoting your services AND working on actual projects. Despite your overtime and hard work, you still only get paid for the hours you spend at your desk working.
-
Full-time salaried employee: You clock in five days a week—and except for paid vacation, sick leave and a personal day here and there—you only get paid for the time you spend at your desk working.
-
Stay-at-home mom: You aren't making much money right now, and you have so much information to share with the world but you don't know how and where to start.
If your quality of life and income depend on any of the above, you've chosen to make money using a traditional work model. And, if you're reading this, we can guess that deep in your heart, you truly believe that there MUST be a better way to make money...
Well, the GREAT news is there IS a smarter way to make a comfortable—even luxurious—living without being chained to your desk (or a client) for the rest of your life...
If you look at some of the most inspiring success stories—from Apple CEO Steve Jobs to the author of the wildly successful Harry Potter novels, J.K. Rowlings—you'll find one thing in common: They invested their time and energy to create a quality product, and now they get paid for that product again, and again, and again and again. And that product will continue to pay them for a lifetime (and probably the lifetimes of their children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren!).
But you don't have to be a computer whiz or a creative genius to achieve this type of success. In fact, as you read this, there are regular Janes and Joes making an extra $500 to $5,000 a month creating and selling their own products and enjoying the freedom-based lifestyle of their dreams—and they don't have stores, employees, or any inventory!
Women and men of all ages, businesses, and backgrounds are making money online by publishing information products (also called "information marketing" or "info-products").
And we're no exception...
Hi, Ali Brown and James Roche here. You likely recognize us as the founder and head coach, respectively, of the online business training program Elevate. We've sold millions of dollars in information products combined over the years. And once we caught the bug, it changed the way we worked and lived forever...
Years ago, I decided to sell my first little e-book. Humble as it was, I remember being so nervous about posting it for sale online that I thought my heart would beat out of my chest!
But my fears quickly dissipated when I saw order after order ($$$) stack up in my email inbox, while I was out at the gym. I became so excited about this new passive revenue that I vowed to learn everything about it that I could. And I grew that great little income stream of an extra few hundred dollars a month into what is today a multimillion-dollar business.
That means I've gone from getting paid for my time to getting paid for my knowledge.
My life used to be "Work... get paid."
It's now... "Work... get paid, paid, paid, paid, paid, paid, paid, paid!"
But here's what I love the most about my business (and ladies, listen up because I know this will resonate with those of you who are raising children and caring for loved ones)...
This type of business is 100% scalable, meaning you can choose to let it be a little cash cow on the side that will pay for your shoe obsession or annual Cabo getaways—or you can go big, like I did, and hire a team of full-time employees so you can truly build an empire. The decision is up to YOU!
Before I became an entrepreneur, my life was devoted to meditation and service. I spent much of my time traveling the western United States giving informational talks and teaching meditation.
...but something STILL wasn't right. I was broke!
The turning point happened around 2003 when I heard the word "entrepreneur" with new ears. I knew somehow that I could blend the western and eastern philosophies together to give my gift to the world.
I thought everything would be smooth sailing from then on but I couldn't seem to find my niche. Some of the businesses I tried to launch were: candle maker, life coach, organizer, photographer, woodworker, multi level marketing, carpenter...the list goes on. Even though I was skilled in so many areas, it was hard to translate my passions into a profitable business. Sound familiar?
Then one bright day, I happened to walk into a networking event in Los Angeles with an information product I had just finished creating with a colleague. It was a binder with about 150 pages and 8 CDs.
I got swarmed!
People surrounded me and asked how I did it and could I make an information product for them, too? I was stunned! I remember driving out of the basement garage after that event, literally driving into the light, when it struck me, "I think I just found my niche!"
I became the "InfoProduct Guy" creating information products for entrepreneurs all over the world in a wide variety of industries.
What I love about this business model is that it truly is a "lifestyle business". My office is anywhere I choose—whether it's my high-rise condo on Miami Beach, a Starbucks around the corner, or a café in Vienna. Plus, I do the work once, and there's no cap on the amount of money I'll make from that initial time investment.
Okay, we know what you're thinking...
We've painted quite the picture for you, but now you're probably wondering why anyone would give you money for information when the Internet is overloaded with FREE articles, tips, and e-books on every topic under the sun. Maybe you've even created your own info product and you're not exactly getting "paid, paid, paid" like you thought you would.
Well, listen up, because...
In the last few years, the information publishing (or "information marketing") industry has gotten a bad rap—and it's actually no surprise why. The Internet and all the do-it-yourself website and blog programs have made it possible for anyone and everyone to create a product and promote it via email, Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube.
Many of these products are excellent and packed with valuable information—but the sad news is, even MORE of these products are poorly thought out and sloppily executed.
And those who have fallen for the "infocrap" trap (by either creating a subpar product or buying one) are the first ones to cry out that the information industry is dead.
But that's simply not true. You see...
Information is nothing new, but these days people aren't looking for more of it. They're looking for distilled information. People actively subscribe to their favorite online magazines. They download e-books on nifty Kindles and iPads. In fact, the Association of American Publishers reports that in 2011 e-book sales have already gone UP by about 202%. And we haven't even talked about the audio book industry (which by the way, has now grown into what is today a $900 million arena!)
The medium might have gone digital, but one thing has stayed the same:
When people want or need to know something specific to their interests, they are more than happy to pay for the RIGHT information.
Every day, money is being made with every topic under the sun — raw food recipes, meeting your mate, losing weight, financial planning, talking with angels, interior decorating... you name it. And every minute, people are paying good money for their e-books, reports, CDs, DVDs, MP3s, courses, and more.
But, you can't just grab any topic out of thin air and expect to make thousands of dollars a month on it. People are willing to pay for your knowledge, but you have to make sure to plan ahead to create a product that people will actually want!
For years, James and I have helped our individual clients plan and create profitable infoproducts of their own. I've even taught it as part of my more extensive courses for years! But in 2011, James and I decided to team up and dedicate a specific telecourse to this topic. It was a highly anticipated course, and the response was through the roof!
And that's why we're so excited to finally be making this content available to you in an information-packed home-study program that you can keep in your Success Library for years to come.

You're a home-based mom or retiree who wants to bring in a part-time income without sacrificing time with your loved ones

Here are a few quick success stories of various business owners who have learned about info-publishing from Ali and James...
Created info products and now has 40% more time to spend on her higher-end clients!
"Business was booming BUT: I was working way too hard – long days and no time off. James helped me transform and streamline the front end of my business with info products. I now have 40% more time to focus on my profitable high-end clients (and my flower hobby). Awesome!"
- Tommi Wolfe, Longmont, Colo., www.thestartupexpert.com
Created several info products with Ali's program that led to increasing her list by over 20%!
"After implementing the information in Ali's program on info products, I created several products that led to increasing my list by over 20%. The products give me an additional income stream that continually impacts my bottom line. It's amazing how by simply following the program, my business experiences consistent sales."
- Doreen Rainey, Bowie, Md. www.doreenrainey.com
Created 4 info products and increased her list by 33%!
"When I first met Ali, I told her I had tons of products in my head and no idea how to get them out. She gave me some coaching from the stage, and then after joining her coaching program in January, I created 6 products including 2 continuity programs. I've increased my list by over 33% by doing teleseminars to introduce my first product. I plan to follow up with product launches using Ali's methods and coaching!"
- Jessica Sitomer, Los Angeles, Calif., www.TheGreenlightCoach.com
Used James's step-by-step guidance to develop info products from beginning to end!
"Before I was exposed to James Roche I was at a total loss as I tried, time and time again to develop my info product only to find myself (once again) back at the drawing board feeling totally frustrated and exasperated with my fruitless labors.
Luckily, James came along and rescued me from a sea of confusion and despair. He was a lifesaver. James provided an easy, systematic formula/program that took me, literally, step-by–step towards the development of my info product from beginning to end.
James, I couldn't have done it without you! I will be forever grateful. Truly."
- Dr. Patty Ann, Stamford, Conn., www.relationshiptoolbox.com
Within a year she created a six-figure business and today, five years later, info products are still a vital part of her business model!
"I launched my online business with one simple recipe eBook priced at $15. A few weeks later I launched a second eBook at $22. Those two small items ended up covering my rent and paying my grocery bill every single month while I grew my business as a single mother. Within a year I had created a six-figure business and today, five years later, info products are still a vital part of my business model. I love them!"
