Let’s be honest.  The biggest reason you’re trying to make a go of internet marketing is to make money right?  You want to become a millionaire.  You know it’s true.  It’s been in the back of your mind since you started thinking about internet marketing.  The big question is how do you build wealth on the internet to make that dream come true?

Well the answer is two fold.  One has to do with the way you have organized your online business and the other has to do with personal behavior.

Let’s take a look at your home based operation first.

For starters real wealth does not happen overnight.  Real wealth is sustainable.  So if you’re spending most of your time promoting the newest shiny object that will be obsolete in two months you really aren’t working towards wealth, you’re looking for the quick score.  Your business should have multiple streams of evergreen products or services to endure your ability to grow wealth.

What do I mean by multiple revenue streams?  Imagine for a moment that the internet existed back when Henry Ford rolled the first Model T off the assembly line.  Guess how many buggy whip and buggy whip accessories sites would have gone out of business?  Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.  Outside market forces which we have no control over can completely ruin an otherwise perfect business.  If you were successfully promoting a vitamin supplement and then the government announced that it caused a certain type of cancer, how many orders do you think you’d get the next day?  How many returns would swamp your mailbox

Have more than one source of revenue so that if one dries up you still have the capital to build a new one.

The second secret to building wealth is your own behavior.  In a 2006 study of the “Millionaire Next Door” several common characteristics were observed in persons whose net worth was over a million dollars. 

Now were not talking about mega rich people who inherited wealth, or hit the lottery or had a one time real estate windfall.  Were talking about your run of the mill millionaire and there are more than you think.  In the U.S. there are 2.5 million or better than 10% of the adult population. 

What these people have in common is a large interest in accumulating wealth, not things.  They understand that real wealth equals real assets not flashy cars and watches.  They also have a passion for saving money.  When they get a new car it is likely to be a late model certified used car rather than a new one.  In short, they enjoy their life but they place a high value on their financial health being sustainable.

Remember back when you first got into this and somebody was trying to sell you a product that would allow you to get a mansion, jaguar, new boat and a hot model to stand in the front yard and show it all off?  And you could get all this in 90 days!  Well that’s exactly the behavior millionaires avoid.

So when you’re thinking how to build wealth think multiple revenue streams, evergreen products and a lifestyle that builds wealth for the future.  Now go make some money.

Selling ebooks on ebay is very popular at the moment and the demand for them is very high. Some sellers actually make a full time income just by selling ebooks on ebay, and a very good income at that.  Selling ebooks, and in particular your own ebook is one of the most profitable businesses on the internet.

There are two ways in which you can obtain ebooks to sell on ebay.

1. You can purchase ebooks with resell rights.  If you buy resell rights to a product you are free to resell that product. You can only sell the actual product but can’t sell the resell rights to the product.  Which is ok for buying to sell on ebay. However, if you would like to offer your customers the resell rights to your ebooks – which can increase their value – you will need to purchase ebooks with Master Resell Rights.  This means that you can resell the product plus sell the resell rights to the product.

If you would like to buy an ebook that you would like to perhaps change around a little and give it your own personal touch, then you will need to buy an ebook with Private Label Resell Rights. This means that you have the rights to change the product and change the author name to your own name.  PLR rights are very good because you really have the ultimate ownership of that product and can do much more with it, including adding some affiliate links within the ebook.

If you are not experienced enough in a particular field to write your own ebook, then purchasing an ebook with PLR rights is a good place to start.  You will have much of the information you need already in the ebook, and all you need to do is change it a little.

2. You can write your own ebook.  Ultimately, this is the best option as you have 100% ownership of the product and can do absolutely anything you want with it. You can write ebooks about almost anything, so there is a good chance that you have interest that you have enough knowledge about to create your own ebook.

If you do need some more knowledge than you personally have, you can quite quickly and easily research the topic on the internet or in books and find some more information.  Always make sure when you find any information from the internet or books, never copy the information straight from the source, always make sure you write it in your own words.

Selling ebooks is quite popular due to the fact that once you have your ebook written and all ready to sell, there are very little costs after that point.  No continued purchasing costs that you would have if you were selling physical products. 

You can sell your ebooks on ebay or also from your own website.  Once your ebooks are set up the only continued costs you will have are your ebay fees or website hosting fees.  So when you price your ebooks, make sure you take into account your fees.

Whether you buy ebooks and resell or create your own, you will have a heap of fun choosing and/or creating your products and even more fun selling them.

Finding a good wholesaler is a huge step to being successful at making an income selling on ebay.  Dropshipping is also a good option if you don’t have much start up capital to purchase stock to sell.

Finding a good wholesaler who’s prices are competitive on the Ebay market can be very difficult.  Ebay is extremely competitive and therefore the prices are reasonably low, which doesn’t give you much room to mark up your prices to make a good profit. Those Ebay sellers that have happened to have come across a very good wholesaler, will usually keep it to themselves to minimise their competition.

The first step when selling on Ebay is deciding exactly what it is that you would like to sell.  For some, this decision is very easy, particularly if they have a hobbie that they could devote their time to and turn it into a business. This is also the ideal job for most, having something you love and making an income from it.  Also if you have a retail store outside of Ebay, you could try selling your products on Ebay and slowly make the conversion to selling online instead of a store, or you could do both.

It’s not always that easy though, some people may have no idea where to start in choosing what to sell on Ebay.  It’s also not just a matter of what to sell, but what is going to be profitable to sell.

Electronic products such as digital cameras, dvd cameras and cell phones are very popular selling items on Ebay.  Some research online will quite easily find you wholesalers for these products as there are quite a lot of wholesalers for these types of products.  These items are also some of the most competitive items on Ebay however, so the profits you will make on these are very minimal as you will need to sell them at a very low price to be competitive.

These products are good in the sense that with the increasing knowledge of technology, these products are continually being changed and improved upon, so the turnover is quite high.  Many people will upgrade to newer better items when there current product becomes outdated.  So there is always demand for this sort of product.  If you can find yourself a very good wholesaler that can give you a supply price that will keep you competitive and if they can keep you ahead of your competition with new released products, then you can do very well with these items.

There are many wholesaler membership websites and forums on the internet that you can join that will supply you with literally hundreds of wholesalers to choose from.  Salehoo is quite a good membership site and joining a site like this can give you a better chance of finding good, reliable and honest wholesalers.

A brief explanation of dropshipping is when you sell an item but you don’t actually purchase the item first.  So you are basically selling the item for the supplier.  You don’t need to purchase stock and you don’t need to store stock on your own premises.  You don’t purchase the item from your supplier until you have made a sale.

You decide which item you want to sell and always make sure you do your research, check the pricing and make sure it is an item you can make profit with.  Also double check with your supplier to make sure they have enough of the items in stock, the last thing you want is to sell an item and then be told that your supplier cannot supply it.

Once you have chosen a product to sell, you put your listing on ebay.  You sell the item to the highest bidder.  Once you receive payment for the item from your customer, you then place an order with your supplier.  You send the supplier their share of the selling price (the supplier cost) and you keep the rest for your ebay fees and profit.

You will give the supplier your customers details, which is their name and address, and the supplier will send the item directly to your customer.  So you never actually see the product, it will go straight from the suppliers warehouse to your customer.

When you list the product on ebay, always make sure when you are deciding on what price to sell at that you take into account your suppliers price, delivery costs and ebay fees.  Then you will need to add your markup to make some profit.

Dropshipping is a very useful way of selling since you don’t need any money up front to do so and you also don’t have the inconvenience of having to store stock in your home or office.  There is a disadvantage to dropshipping though, which is that you don’t know your suppliers stock levels so you do need to be continually checking with your supplier on their stock levels.  Never rely on your supplier to keep you updated on stock levels, they do sometimes forget.  You will also need to keep checking their prices and make sure they keep you updated with any price changes.  A good supplier will let you know when prices change or when stocks are low.

Whether you buy stock up front or decide to use the dropshipping method, always make sure you do research on your supplier.  Make sure that they are legitimate and honest before sending any money to them.  There are fraudulent suppliers out there so always do your homework and find out as much information as you can.

The focus for most businesses and entrepreneurs today isn’t just Internet marketing, it’s strategic Internet marketing. The difference between the two is the planning that goes into the strategies that you enact. It’s not about aimlessly following advice, or trying something for no reason just to see what happens. It’s about creating solid foundations for success, and putting strong, sound plans into place that will produce results.

One tool that is continually being used for strategic Internet marketing is webinars. Webinars are ubiquitous today, it truly seems as if everybody is doing them. If you’re not, then you’re missing out on a huge opportunity for profit and growth. They can be applied in almost situation for any type of business, and these versatile tools will always produce results.

The great thing about webinars is the potential uses you have for them are endless. They can be used for presentations and sales pitches, or they can be used for informal Q and A sessions. Regardless of how you use them, they benefit everyone because they are an interactive tool.

You get to talk directly to your audience, and they get to hear your voice, and listen to you as if they were in person, standing beside you in an office or conference. Additionally, your audience will also get to reach out to you, ask questions and have their opinions heard. Therefore it’s truly a two-way, interactive medium that will establish a stronger bond with your audience, whoever they are. That personal touch was lost in the world of Internet business before webinars came along.

A popular use for webinars for strategic Internet marketing is to give free, informative presentations. By providing them with real information that they can use for their own benefit, you are giving them great value. They in turn will come to trust and respect you, and take what you have to say seriously. Then when it’s time for them to make a purchase, they will turn to you, the person or the company that already gave them so much without asking for anything in return.

A crucial thing to remember when it comes to strategic Internet marketing is that you should be focusing on exploiting the strengths of your business. You want to show people what you’re best at, and what you’re capable of. You want to draw people into your services and products, and you want to stay at the forefront of their mind. The audience is at your control, so do your best to wow them.

Strategic Internet marketing is a turn in the right direction for online companies. Instead of following trends, it’s about matching the needs and desires of your audience, with your own strengths and your own desires. By satisfying the needs of your audience, whether it’s interactivity, information, help or anything else, you take over a special place in their mind whether they know it or not. Therefore webinars can be a powerful weapon in your arsenal for converting prospects into customers, creating repeat customers and clients and ultimately driving up your revenue.
