Start An Online Business From Scratch – Startup Mentorship Program
If you’ve no experience of building an online business, The SFM offers a complete ‘all-in-one’ package which offers a digital business system, a range of products and all the training, tools and education you’ll need to build an online business, without any prior knowledge.
The SFM business system (see digital success mentoring program), offers a range of digital products to sell and a step by step tutorial process for setting it all up. You can earn from this sales funnel (see ready made sales funnel) through a business model known as affiliate marketing.
What Is Affiliate Marketing?
Affiliate marketing is a business model in which ‘affiliates’ can promote and sell other people’s products on the internet. When a sale is made, the sale is tracked back to the affiliate who referred the sale via their unique affiliate link. They earn a commission from the sale, even though they don’t personally own the products themselves.
Affiliate marketers can promote almost any product you can find on the internet. Providing a product or service has an affiliate program, anyone can join the program, promote the product and earn commissions based on the sale.
Not all affiliate programs are equal though. For example, digital products tend to pay much larger commissions than physical products. Typically, physical products pay 3-10% commissions to affiliates whereas digital products can pay 40-50% commissions.
That’s because physical products carry more costs including postage, manufacturing and handling costs. Digital products don’t have such high costs so they can pass the savings on the affiliates who promote them.
What’s Involved In An Online Business?
An online business can be built from anywhere using a sales funnel, digital products and a marketing ‘engine’. With the right kind of products, you can earn considerably more than with the ‘wrong’ kinds of products, too.
As you can see in the video (click image above), much of the technical aspect of building these systems has been removed. This makes a ‘startup online business’ much more accessible to anyone, even without any experience.
There’s still things to learn though, even after setting up the fundamental systems which will help you sell products over the internet. The main focus once you’ve done that is marketing your sales funnel. Marketing can be done in a variety of ways including both content marketing and paid marketing strategies.
Benefits Of A Digital Product Range – Startup Mentorship Program
A digital product range can give you an instant business model which has the benefit of:
- Total geographical freedom – work from anywhere from a laptop.
- The ability to sell over the internet to anyone globally – no postage or delivery problems with digital products since they can be downloaded from the internet.
- The ability to scale up sales, once you reach a profitable marketing model
Once your business model is in place you need to learn online marketing strategies to find customers for your business. This takes quite a bit of understanding and learning and this is where you need help from a mentor. Without the proper help and advice, this can be a very lonely and difficult road to travel.
Online marketing is a skill and like any other skill it needs to be learned over time. This process is much faster when learning from others who have already done what you need to do.
