Day One
Task One: Setting up the basics
Here it is: day one. Hype yourself up, take a cold shower and shelter yourselves from any distractions that could ruin your productivity. Once this is done, you may start working.
Your only task for today should not take more than an hour. Before we begin any real work, we need to make sure we have the proper tools to get from start to finish.
a) Open a Paypal account and get it VERIFIED.
Your paypal account is the plateform by which all your money will transit. I expect most of you to have one already, but if you don't then head to Paypal.com and register. Once this is done, you will need to get it verified, which means you will have to link it to your bank account to make it possible to withdraw your earnings later on. There are many tutorials on the internet on how to do so, and paypal makes it very easy, so I won't expand on this topic.
b) Open a JVZoo account
JVZoo is hands down the best plateform for sellers to join right now. It is extremely easy to use and allows fast sales funnel creations. It also pays instantly to your paypal. Create an account, we will soon need it. Use the same email address as the one you used for you paypal account.
c)Link your Paypal account to your JVZoo account.
Now that you have a PayPal account and a JVZoo account, I want you to head to JVZoo and under “My Account”, press “Payment Profile”.
Once this is done, follow the instructions to link your PayPal account. This will ensure that you do get paid for every sale directly to your PayPal account.
c) Find a product to resell
This is now a very important step. If you purchased this ebook then you received readymade businesses with sales pages included and resell license. Those are quality products that have been proven to sell VERY well. Now once this course goes public you can expect other marketers to sell these products as well. You have two options when it comes to finding products to resell:
-You can resell the three ebook products I've made available to you, with sales page. If you decide to do so, I would advise rebranding them and getting new graphics for them, or else the market for these products will go stale very quickly.
-You can purchase products with MRR licenses(basically the right to resell them). Just do a google search and find something in a popular niche. Take your time with this step, you don't want to put in hard work to try and sell a product that doesn't have customers.
Regardless of the path you chose to go with, you should be in possession of the following documents along with the actual products: an html sales page, a MRR license, graphics(includes ebook cover and different-sized banners). My readymade businesses come with all these elements.
d) Get web hosting and a domain name
Now that you have a product to sell and a sales page to use, you are going to need a webhost to upload your files and get your website up and running. The typical price for hosting is anywhere between 5 to 15$ a month. I personnaly use and recommend Hostgator.com for their amazing customer service, which, if you're new to the world of webhosting, will come in handy one day or the other. In over two years of using Hostgator, they have never done me dirty and they have provided amazing service. They are also very affordable.
If you decide to sign up with Hostagtor (and you should), be sure to use the COUPON “5DAYSINDEPENDENCE” at checkout to get 25% off.
Alternative hosting companies include Bluehost, 1&1 and Justhost. To register a hosting account and domain names, head to hostgator or wherever you choose to be hosted. Register a hosting plan that fits your needs. Next, register a domain name for your product. You should aim at having the product's name in the domain name. Also keep your domain names free of digits and as short as possible. The best domain name you could purchase for a product called, for example “traffic generator” would be “trafficgenerator.com”. Keep it simple.
Great ! You've made it through the first day ! You are only allowed to move on to day two if you have completed EVERY task you were assigned. The first day is the easiest, so catch a break and come back tomorrow for more :)
