Product Creation: A Day At The Office

April 3, 2013 By Robert Corrigan 12 Comments

Firstly a question, where do you work best?

Mostly I work at home in my office, but just occasionally I like to expand my horizons a bit and become more flexible inn my working practices. On these days I prefer to work in one of the many office spaces that are available to me in the fair city of Liverpool. I think these are also known as pubs?

My current “office” (where I wrote this) is known as Bier and is an excellent venue with its selection of quality ales and imported beer it comes highly recommended, (but not on a Saturday night when the worlds worst DJ excels in driving away good custom after attempting first to burst their ear drums).

But is beer and work a good combination?

In my case yes, for me it’s liberating to be away from home with the frequent distractions and constant pinging of the email. Warning me of yet another cannot do without thingumy is for sale and if I don’t buy it now at a massive discount it may be gone forever, it just destroys the erm, what’s it called? Oh yes concentration.

I never take a laptop, or a netbook and the IPad is still where I left it, just me a writing pad a pen and a pint.

 

 

Productive, well I have in the past hour, written the copy for my eBay listing of “War of the Worlds.”

War of the Worlds Audio MP3

Brainstormed a selection of books for Kindle, Written a description and planned the eBay listing of some software products I am going to sell.

Astronomy Software

Come up with three new product ideas, and written this blog post.

So a fruitful day all round, plus I managed to save 2 pence in real money due to the reduction in excise duty on beer by our chancellor in the latest budget. Thanks George, what ever will I spend it on?

So it only remains for me to ask. How do you like to work?

Review Of The Year, Plans For Next Year & My Own Event!

December 23, 2012 By Robert Corrigan 6 Comments

Hi everyone, it may seem a bit early for a review of 2012 but I have a big event starting on Dec 23rd so I thought it would be good time to do both.

Firstly, I am ending the year and beginning 2013 by co-hosting a major giveaway event with the able help of Keith Purkiss. Giveaway events are excellent not only for members but also contributors as there are many first class products available for FREE or on special offer at amazingly low prices.

Here is the link so that you can claim your own free gifts.

Find out more about Giveaways HERE.

Personal Highlights of the year for me have been spending time and travelling with my lovely partner Julia. We have been to Stratford which saw monsoon weather of biblical proportions, The English Lake District visiting Grasmere and the home of Lakeland poet William Wordsworth.

Bamburgh castle which I have always wanted to visit, and the Capital of Scotland Edinburgh to watch the show Midnight Tango. Plus a brilliant holiday in the sunshine of Majorca.

Business wise, I had a very successful year as an affiliate for John Thornhill’s One Month Mentor, Dan Sumners & John Thornhill’s Product Development Control and Dan’s Bloggers Roadmap. All top quality products from ethical marketers.

On my own products, I have completed my new Kindle home study course (which took months) which I think is my best product to date.

My Kindle books sell on autopilot but I have not produced much content in the second half of the year due to producing the Kindle video course.

I have however produced a number of smaller products such as……

Selling Information Products On eBay

Make A Killer Income From Small Ads

eBay Private Lable Empire

Things I am disappointed with 🙁

I had many more products planned this year that I never got around to finishing. Working my full time job has proved draining both mentally and physically leaving little time in the evening for working on my own business ideas or for R&R. I need to find a better balance here.

I had intended to produce Plugin Auction Profits 2 which is in completed draft planning, but this has now been penned in for 2013 as well as my print version or 12 Roads to Success via Create Space.

I had intended to offer custom WordPress websites for local businesses but just run out of time to even start this, maybe I was a bit too ambitious for one year?

So What Is In Store For 2013? Lots!

On a personal basis plenty of fun and travel!

On a business basis…

Priority 1

Continue to build my mailing list, obviously this will be ongoing.

Priority 2

Get my Kindle Product up for sale, I still need to finish the sales page and affiliate materials, order graphics etc.

Priority 3

Complete the upsell for the Kindle product about building an Information Business off Amazon.

Priority 4

Make more use of social media in my business and to blog and visit other blogs more often.

I have a number of other products and ideas in the planning stage which will see the light of dawn in 2013.

So what have you planned for 2013? Please leave a comment.

It’s good to share! Please help me spread the word by sharing on Facebook, Twitter and other social media.

Who Says You Cannot Use PLR Material For Kindle Content!

November 27, 2012 By Robert Corrigan 6 Comments

Well Kindle do for starters and that has led to a lot of Kindle accounts being blocked or terminated the Kindle slap or in other words they upset the 800lb Gorilla that is Amazon.

Here is the problem too many people were using PLR content the wrong way. PLR or (Private Label Rights) materials are freely available at very modest prices or even free, the whole idea of PLR materials is to use it as a starting point, a kind of check list to build the content for your own unique book.

Now the quality of PLR varies enormously from the excellent to and let me be blunt here… complete crap. The temptation of just uploading the PLR content as is was just too much of a temptation for far too many people. You see lots of other people had exactly the same idea (and the same PLR) and the market became flooded with large amounts of books which were exactly the same.

The content appeared time and time again with different titles, articles just mixed around instead of being re-written, this was tarnishing Amazons image and the 800lb Gorilla that is Amazon was most displeased. Instead of wielding a scalpel to the problem they wielded a sledge hammer.

So you can’t use PLR right? Wrong, I have just published a book on allergy relief on Kindle using a collection of PLR materials. It is approved, published and is selling. How did I do it? I simply did exactly what you are supposed to do, I significantly differentiated my content from the source material therefore ending up with a unique offering.

In other words, I completely rewrote the PLR articles, I edited sections out of the original and I added bits in from my own research. As an experiment I also created a Facebook page, and added a QR Code to the book. The great thing is I can use this new content or the original PLR articles and sell it elsewhere such as eBay and other eBook websites.

I did all this as to show how easy it was to produce your own Kindle content as part of the training in my new Kindle training course that I am producing and which is near completion to show that you can use PLR material but only if you do it the right way.

So here is the challenge, most of us have tons of PLR materials gathering digital dust on our hard drive, could we not use that to start our own Kindle business? Or, if the PLR materials you have are of a poor quality then why not check out PLR Monthly?

Stiil rebuilding my blog everyone so keep coming back for changes… Rob

Product Development Control A Review

June 5, 2012 By Robert Corrigan Leave a Comment

The way to make real money in Internet Marketing is to produce your own products. You have total control over the whole process. But…. It can seem overwhelming where you start first, what I need to think about etc. Wouldn’t it be great to work form a route map that showed you what to do every step of the way saving both time and frustration.

 

Well things just got a whole lot easier because Dan Sumner and John Thornhill have just released “Product Development Control” the ultimate bible for producing you own quality and profitable products in a fraction of the time it used to take.

As Dan and John make extensive use of Video, Audio, PDF Instruction and work sheets to take you step by step through the whole product creation process this is as easy as look over my shoulder and do what I do. This is the product creation process in action my two marketers who are known for the quality of the products they create.

 

I have just completed reviewing the whole course and I can say I learned a thing or 9 about how to produce my own products more quickly and easily. “Product Development Control” has 6 Modules.

 

Module 1:

The 5 videos in this module show how to plan a product using the mind mapping process that Dan and John have used to pull in thousands of dollars this year alone. The easy to follow videos and accompanied by access the resources to do this which are free. Watch as Dan and John create the outline to a product “live”.

 

Module 2:

2 Videos on how to create content, what formats to use where to source professional graphic, often a make or break for any product. Follow the complete checklist to success.

 

Module 3:

Sales page creation techniques, supporting Pages for your products website. Sourcing and producing bonus products. The power of testimonials in the selling process.

 

Module 4:

Four videos cover: Getting started with your product development all the tools you need for free. How to outsource parts of the process for speed and professionalism.  Testing your product and give it the final tweaks it needs to produce sales.

 

Module 5:

What are the best methods of processing your payments, the pro’s and con’s of taking money using Clickbank, PayPal, Pay.com, JV Zoo and a host of other payment processors.

 

Module 6:

Lift off! Promoting your product, finding affiliates and JV partners, the power of social media and blogging.

 

A massive set of resources links to online tools plus a mean set of bonus products that would cost more than the price of this program alone. This make “Product Development Control” as complete as it can possibly be. I have spent a day trying to think of what could be added or improved, result I failed. Well done Dan and John you nailed this one!

 

This product is no longer available on The Warrior Forum BUT Dan and John have set up a special discount for visitors to my blog where you can still get this for a measly $27 AND I am still offering my bonus package, this makes it a no brainier for me I can make this back on my first sale!

 

I am so impressed that I am offering some unique and strictly limited bonuses for buying

Hurry as I expect these to sell out very quickly! Rob..

How Quickly Can You Create A Product?

May 9, 2012 By Robert Corrigan 13 Comments

Or how long is a piece of string? It just depends on the type of product that you are creating. I regularly provide my subscribers with great free content, sometimes this is entirely written by myself, at other times it will be a free report, a video or a product produced by someone else that I have the rights to give away. The important thing is that it is always something of value.

This weekend I put together a complete subscriber appreciation gift in just 2 hours. Here’s how, I used Ezine Articles website to find out some first class information about Kindle publishing. I drew up a list of 10 subjects so that that the report would be valuable and the subject matter would flow together.

I then searched the Ezine Articles website for 10 articles with quality content relating to the list I drew up. There are a lot of articles but as most of them are 400-500 words I found what I needed very quickly (approx 50 mins). The important consideration was quality and value. Always look at the expert authors first here is the link to my expert author page.

Robert Corrigan, EzineArticles Basic PLUS Author

I copied and pasted the articles into an Open Office document, did a little formatting, added a cover, disclaimer and a resources page at the end. Voila’ a complete high quality subscriber appreciation gift in under 2 hours start to finish.

 

 

Here is the finished product, download HERE or click the graphic.

There are are few do’s and don’ts you need to observe to comply with the Terms of Service (TOS) but really they are just common sense. When authors publish an Ezine Article they give permission to reproduce the article they still retain copyright. No changes or editing is allowed and the author resource box must remain intact together with any links in the box or article. Also credit must be given to Ezine Articles as the source.

This helps to promote the authors work and their own products or website. As a courtesy contact the author to let them know you have reprinted their article and offer them a free copy of you report.

I don’t think of this method of product production as a quick fix but merely a way of collating quality content very quickly without having to write it all myself. There are limits on how many articles you can use in a calendar year limited at 25 per unique domain or 250 per year.

There are some other excellent article sites such as.

  • Articlesbase
  • Go Articles
  • Article Alley
  • List of Top 50 Article Directories by Page Rank

Each will have their own TOS, but don’t be tempted to mix and match from different sites as you could inadvertently break the terms of service on one or another of them particularly with article quotas.  Rob
