But that doesn't mean passive income is a myth.
Here's an example, from a strategy I use:
After people join this list, they're given an opportunity to purchase an excellent course on the tech side of Internet marketing, and I price it at a level at which it's essentially irresistible.
Once I have it set up, the money it generates requires no extra work on my part. I'm sending people to my squeeze pages to get them to sign up for my mailing list anyway. Now that I've given them the option to buy something after they've done so, the resulting revenue is genuinely passive.
Since 2016, when I started doing this, I've brought in an extra $113,000 this way.
Now if we break that down on a per-year basis, it's true that that's no substitute for your annual income. But since it's income that was generated with legitimately no effort on my part (I have never promoted this course in any way other than simply making it available after people opt in to my list), it's not too shabby.
Your results will vary, of course. But the point remains: why not give people something to buy when they've already indicated an interest in you?
And here's the punchline: that course I sell is a Private Label Rights (PLR) product. I didn't even have to create the course! I bought the rights to it and make it available for sale as my own (rebranded) product.
This week we've been talking about PLR, and how it can be a quick shortcut to having your own product, or having something to give away as an enticement to get people to join your list.
Charles Harper, one of the kings of PLR, just released another excellent product -- on how to run a virtual summit, which is a great way to crack into your niche and create an instant product of your own -- with PLR rights.
You can learn from Charles's training yourself, and then, if you like, you can sell it as your own. He even includes a done-for-you sales page.
This is for just under $9 (it's on a dime sale, so the price increases with every copy sold), just until the launch ends. When the launch ends, the price leaps upward.
But the launch ends tomorrow, so now's the time to grab:
