Simple Ways To Make Money
Let’s take audio books for example. Many who just think inside the box might just promote audio books. Those who think outside the box would use the audio book content to improve their website content and promote related products as well. They would also use this content to add name recognition and branding to their web pages.Many audio book affiliate programs just give you links to promote but what if you could generate unlimited content for your own website. This is what you can do with this audio book program, couple that with good rich informative content along with keyword research and you have the foundation to succeed online.Go a step further. What if you could create direct pages with audio content and have people buy on your site. Then you could use this to find out what keywords are generating sales, helping to fine tune your efforts.When people search online they are seeking information. Your job as an online publisher it to provide that information in a format that makes sense. So what is that format? Firstly it is highly relevant and informative, relevant in the sense that you address their issues and provide answers and solutions to their problems. You yourself if you are interested in the subject will be in a position to

Day Job Killer is the latest release of eBooks on using PPC (pay per click) advertising to capitalize on affiliate marketing. The book is written by Chris McNeeney who also wrote "Affiliate Project X" back in Oct of 2006 and "Adwords Miracle" the year before. When his eBook APX came out it was a smash success among affiliate marketers because it revived a new way of using Adwords to promote affiliate product sales.

For the bulk of this report I will focus on the one technique in Day Job Killer known as "Direct Linking X". I will do this primarily because: A) It is the ONE method in Day Job Killer that the average Joe can implement right away B) It is the easiest of the methods to start with and see results C) I have actual personal proof of the results of using it.

Altogether there are 6 different techniques revealed in Day Job Killer. All of them require cash and ti

Sell Your Name, Not Your Product
Do you know what the majority of people sell? I could not tell you what Michael Green sells, but if he does sell something, then I would probably buy it. His name is popular among the “Marketers”.When you were in school you probably remember that some guys and girls were more popular than others. Those were the ones that were voted as Vice Presidents and or course Presidents of the school faculty group.It wasn’t that they were any smarter or did anything better, but as you know they did get around a lot more than most people. They communicated with quite a few people. When you mention their names, most everyone in school knew them. Not many people knew you if you were not popular.I have been told that the Internet is a big place. You can literally get lost. Once you lose you place, chances are you won’t find it again unless you bookmark it or send it to your “favorites”.In my own opinion that’s total nonsense. If you or any marketer actually does the work right, then your world will be a small world. Anywhere you type in the search engines, your “name” will come up.Now it easy to remember a name like Michael Green, John Reese, Corey Rudl, and especially Yanik Silver, but if you had a name like Rabiekaik Corekj

Seems these days every Internet mass marketer, and their brother, has the secret ingredient or method of replacing your current day job grind with an instant, or near instant, million dollar a year from Internet sales and marketing gimmick. Well I'm here to tell you Day Job Killer is another one of those gimmicks or fads if you will. The only difference between Day Job Killer and other such Internet marketing methods is that Day Job Killer will work - for now. I'm going to divulge the truth behind it and from there let you make your own decision if you should proceed with using the methods it provides for affiliate marketing.

But first for the new people to affiliate marketing and to those of you who want to read some credibility about myself the next 5 paragraphs will be on my background and a general lesson on affiliate marketing. I will get back to Day Job Killer I promise.

Ok, so let me give you a little history on myself. I'm sure it will sound like countless others you've heard and maybe even close to your own story. I got my first Internet access account way back in 1991 and since then I have always thought that the Internet was going to be the advertising/sales medium to replace the traditional direct mail,newspaper,magazine methods of advertising. I still believe that, although its going to take several more years for it to happen than I thought it would initially.

Those were the days of free domain name registrations through Internic, or Network Solutions as they are called now, and anyone could register a domain name for free and have a website on that domain within minutes or hours and it was all free. I won't go into the story of how all of that changed but lets just say that Network Solutions figured out that there was money to be made from domain name registrations and thus now you have to pay for them.

Anyway, I dabbled in setting up some websites and shopping carts, bebopped around on eBay with a few items I had to sell and actually made a little money here and there. Not much mind you but a little extra change every now and again. Along came a new concept in sales on the Internet back about 1994 or so called affiliate marketing. If you don't know what that is its basically advertising a product for sale that you don't own, or stock, for someone else that does for a cut, or percentage, of the sale.

This method of sales on the Internet for the average Joe grew tremendously fast. It was so successful for companies that participated that Internet websites like Commission Junction began springing up to bring Internet average Joe's and companies together. Today there in excess of over 10,000 affiliate programs one can join and begin marketing products on the Internet.

Of course it had to happen, there came individuals out of the woodwork claiming they made millions off of affiliate marketing and was ready to divulge their secrets to all - for a price. This information came to you by varied means usually secret insider websites that you logged into or, as is most common today, an eBook about their secrets. Again another avenue for affiliate marketing sprang up for selling access to these secrets for the publishers. And you guessed it websites were created to bring these publishers and average Joes together to form alliances, or affiliate associations between themselves. The most popular for this type of affiliate referral websites today is ClickBank.

Alrighty so there you have a brief history on myself and a primer on affiliate marketing. Now lets move on to Day Job Killer and why it should be renamed Day Job Replacer.

Motor Vehicle Policy and Your Employee Risks
It is becoming more common for employers to require employees to use their personnel motor vehicles for business use. Reimbursement for business use is commonly by way of a kilometre/mileage allowance or a general motor vehicle allowance for the year.Did you know that you can be found vicariously liable for the acts and omissions of your employees driving while driving a motor vehicle for work related business?Even an innocuous journey to pick up the daily mail can be fraught with risk!I this day and age employees cannot always be relied upon to exercise discretion and common sense. It is therefore important that you take some human resource risk strategies to ensure that any risk is mitigated or at least as much as possible.Normally a business motor vehicle policy should set the boundaries of employee use such as;• Is the employee required to use their personal motor vehicle, when and under what circumstances,• Does the employee have comprehensive and replacement insurance for their and any third party damage,• How is the employee to be reimbursed,• Is the reimbursement subject to state or federal taxes,• Does the employee warrant that they hold a valid drivers license for driving a motor veh

Why Incorporate
Business is a risky nature. It is also said the higher the risk, the greater the benefit. Discretion is the better part of the valor, as the potential downfall might lead to complete financial failure and recovering could be a mammoth task. It is important to know how much money you should risk, and incorporating a business venture reduces the risk and the personal liability.There are many advantages to incorporating a business. They are personal liability, tax advantages, anonymity, perpetuity, easier access to capital and transfer of ownership. A Corporation is made up of a group of persons called shareholders. Each has limited investment in the venture. The benefits they accrue is in the form of salaries if they are employees, as well as dividends and capital appreciation if the shares are listed. If the business incurs any loss, the shareholders are liable only for their investments. Their personal assets are protected.Corporations enjoy many tax advantages when compared to proprietorship and partnership. Many expenses like rents, insurance plans and retirement plans can be claimed for deductions. In proprietorship and partnership, debt is the only way to raise capital. This comes at a higher interest due to unlimited liability. But corpo

Sales State Management Part 1
In the last article, I was talking about the fact that you need to be in a fantastic state, in a friendly state when you meet up with your customer. So what makes up states?Let me ask you. What would be the differences in the ways that you would be when you are depressed? You would sit with your shoulders down and you sit in more of a slumped way, wouldn’t you? Where as, if you were at a sports game and your team was winning you would be standing up and cheering, expressing yourself with arm movements and things like that.One of the differences about your state is how you change your Physiology.Everything that you do with your arms gestures, what you do when you are breathing, what you do with the structure with the way you are sitting or the way you are standing is part of your physiology.All these things are a part of your physiology, whether you open your eyes really wide and put a smile on your face or you put on a frown, all these things are a big factor that contributes to your state and contributes whether you are in a good state for meeting customers or greeting people for selling and persuading them to buy your product or ideas or if you are in a bad state and going to produce a negative response from the buyer and fr

A Money Making Program For Peter Robinson, A Successful Affiliate Who Nearly Quit
Peter Robinson is an 18 year old millionaire. A couple of years ago, Peter was at school and working part time so he could save enough funds to purchase his first car, however Peter also had a sideline on a forum he frequented submitting URL's for people. He stumbled onto a forum where he found people paid him cash to his paypal account, to submit links for their websites to directories. He didn't think of this, he simply saw many others offering their services and he investigated and found he understood and could do it too.He got a few dollars per link and could complete a 100 link job in a few hours, so it was fairly lucrative for a 16 year old. The reason these people paid him to submit their links to their new websites is so they could gain credibility from sites that are established. These established sites were happy to accept links because it created free content for their pages and people like Peter built their websites for them. It was a happy situation for all parties concerned.Over a couple of years Peter explored article writing and also became proficient in php coding which is an excellent computer language to learn for any webmaster. HTML is a pre-requisite, but php is a must. You can create websites that can interact with visit

Altogether there are 6 different techniques revealed in Day Job Killer. All of them require cash and time to implement. The techniques are described as being nasty,ruthless and to be quite honest some of them do require a degree of "take no prisoners" attitude towards PPC advertsing.

Direct Linking X is or should be part two of Chris's Affiliate Project X eBook. Actually it is a revamped method of performing the GoogleCash method of PPC that Google banned some time ago. This method puts a spin on it in that you link directly to affiliate partners such as Wal-Mart, Amazon, and Target product pages.

As I mentioned of the methods revealed in Day Job Killer this is the only method the average Joe can participate in right away. But be fore warned even this method is not for the truly dedicated to succeeding and absolutely requires research and cash investment into PPC.

Basically you find high ticket items on your affiliate partner's products list and create PPC ads to promote them while collecting a commission for each sale. The explanation of how to implement Direct Linking X give clear examples of what grabs attention in these ads and will garner higher click through ratios.

The problem is while one could setup a couple of test ads fairly quickly to really employ this method of PPC and affiliate marketing you will need to devote a significant amount of time into research for the ads. Thus Day Job Killer becomes Day Job Replacer as you find more and more of your time being invested into implementing the methods in the eBook. And this is the easiest one to do. The other methods described in the eBook such as "The Leveler" could require a week or more of research just to get started and then the constant staying at the process to stay in the game.

Ok so I promised results of how well Direct Linking X performed for me so here it is in all of its glory or lack of. I followed the advice to a "T" in the method and chose two ads to run. Both of them were Amazon products, both of them according Amazon's Hot Sellers page were hot products in their categories. One was a Weber Smoker/Grill and the other was a hiking boot made by Rocket Dog.

I setup the two ads exactly as described in Day Job Killer and turned the Adwords campaign loose on Google. Both ads I started out at 80 cents each to garner high position for the first day and then lowered the bid price the second day to 20 cents. The Weber ad received 4582 views or impressions and 109 clicks about a 2.39% CTR. Out of this I made one sale for a grand total of $8.20 in affiliate commission. These 109 clicks cost me $26 in Adwords advertsing expenses so as you can see I lost on that campaign. The Rocket Dog ad performed about the same and had zero sales so I totally lost all of my ad dollars on that campaign.

Now some will argue that I picked the wrong items to market or that my ads were not effective enough, but I beg to differ. A 2.39% CTR is excellent for such a targeted specific ad usually you are doing good if you can get around a 1% CTR. So in essence what I'm saying here is that you really need to pick and choose which products to market and they had better be high end products that pay a healthy commission. Dealing with Amazon you can get anywhere from a 4% to 10% commission so you really have to be on your toes to find a really hot product that will sell easily. Also you need to do what they call "split testing" ads which in essence means creating various ads for the same product and seeing which ones perform best. I haven't gotten to that point yet. I just started with Day Job Killer a few days agao so I am really still on a learning curve with it as well.
