  • Very low manufacturing cost (how about zero cost?)
It all adds up to a super way to monetize any site, but it works especially well with an SBI! site. Why? Because once you attract traffic interested in your niche, what better way to monetize than to give them exactly what they came for in the first place... more information! And Make Your Knowledge Sell! is the perfect step-by-step guide for how to do just that. Up until today, SiteSell has been selling it for $49.95. It includes...
  • how to find profitable ideas

Then, you need to organize the book into sections and/or chapters and write about the subject so that the information flows smoothly and is understandable. The better you organize and write, the better the readers' experience will be. Yes, you can sell poorly written, rushed to sell information products, and your readers will see it for what it is. On the other hand, you can invest the time and effort to provide the best product you can. It doesn't have to be the greatest book of all time, but it does have to present the information you are offering in a format that your readers can understand and use. You need to make sure the book is well-written, grammatically correct, and free of typographical errors. Nothing will lower your credibility more than a book full of misspelled words and sentences that your reader can't understand.

SFI Marketing Group Store Update Announcement
On July 29, 2008, Lori Robinson, Administrator for the SFI Discussion Board, posted an announcement: New SFI Store Update. Here's what Lori had to say:
For our many affiliates anxiously awaiting the unveiling of the new SFI store (and for brand new affiliates who may not have heard about the coming new store), here's an update of some of the exciting features everyone will be enjoying soon: • ONE store for everything. The new store will service both SFI affiliates and retail customers alike. Everything from nutritional products to Internet services to SFI promotional materials. • Thousands (soon tens of thousands) of new products in dozens of new categories, plus closeouts, collectables and hard-to-find items available nowhere else. • Earn instant SVP on EVERY product in the store...including all SFI promotional materials like X-Cards, postcards, business cards, etc. • Exclusive, money-saving daily deals ("Deal Of The Day"). • Special weekly/monthly sales with special discount prices. • New products added daily. • You can promote the store as a whole, or any individual product in the store, or any department, or any selection of products of your choosing. • No longer do high shipping costs need to get in the way of becoming EA or making sales internationally. This is because the new SFI store will be utilizing new partner companies who will be shipping to you directly from outlets around the world. Additionally, through the store's Private Seller program, you can locate sellers and products located in your same country—even the same city! • Because of how it's being built, virtually anything can be added and sold in the store. Goods, services, downloadable software and media, you name it! The sky's the limit! • The new SFI store also allows you to sell YOUR stuff. Through the new store's Private Seller program you can quickly, easily, and cheaply convert stuff you no longer want or need...into stuff you do! List your stuff at the new store, and sell for cash....or for any product in the store. You can even earn EA status each month selling unwanted items around your house! Use the new SFI store as your online garage sale to clean out your closets, attics and garages! List and sell dozens or even hundreds of miscellaneous items easily. • Hot, new marketing program will allow you to easily generate lifetime retail customers by the hundreds! And earning EA status though retail sales will have never been simpler or easier! • Standing Orders, on thousands of products, will be available both to affiliates AND retail customers. If you place an order containing any Standing Order-Eligible product, you'll automatically be alerted how to set up a Standing Order for that item in seconds. These are just SOME of the amazing features the new SFI store will come with. And there are many, many, many more. Not only that, the new store is also going to usher in some powerful new enhancements to the overall SFI program including substantial simplification, bigger bonuses, and more incentives to become and remain an EA. Stay tuned for further details! L. Robison
Needless to say, this announcement continues to pique my interest. Ever since Gery Carson, President of SFI, announced this new, not-yet-opened ecommerce store, I've been waiting with bated breath to see if it lives up to my expectations. Lately, I haven't been doing much promotion of SFI products, because I don't want to get things in place and then have to change everything when the new store opens. So, instead of advertising for retail sales, I've been working on building a larger downline of affiliates so we all can promote more when the ecommerce store opens. If you like, you can subscribe to a short email series about how you can promote SFI Marketing Group using the Private Success Team downline builder. Originally, the store was supposed to open in late spring, 2008, but it has been delayed. When asked about it, Gery Carson responded:
We've added many powerful features since originally announced so there is still a substantial amount of design and programming yet to do. Hence, an estimated arrival date is difficult to predict. It is well worth the wait I can assure you however.
When an affiliate asked if the new store will be open by Thanksgiving so we don't miss the Christmas shopping season, Gery Carson answered:
Everything is progressing very nicely. So long as that continues, it should arrive well before Thanksgiving.
Now, anyone who has ever been involved in the development and implementation of a major ecommerce site knows that schedules can slip as new features are added and new problems surface. So, I'm not concerned about a delay of a few months. I would much rather the new SFI store be opened when it's ready, rather than being rushed to market just to meet an arbitrary goal date. One of the things I find most intriguing about the new store is the increased availability of products and services that international affiliates can market. Shipping costs have made marketing SFI physical products cost prohibitive, and this includes the Veriuni line of health products, nutritional supplements, weight loss products, and all-natural cleaning products. Many of these products are popular with customers in the United States, so I'm sure this has been frustrating for affiliates who live in other parts of the world. I'm hoping there will be lots more products that can be marketed around the world as a result of the new store and the partner companies that will be shipping from many more locations than the current one in the United States. I don't mind recruiting new affiliates and building my downline, but that doesn't increase my income nearly as much as promoting lots more products and services that can be bought by anyone at retail. I love making retail sales! So, while I'm rather impatient and want to see this store, I'll do my best to wait patiently until Gery announces the grand opening. Then, if I like what I see, I'll have a lot to say about the new SFI store as I explore ways to advertise and promote it and the products in it. I hope you'll come along for the ride. This might be a very interesting year for SFI. Act on your dream! JD

J.K. Rowling Speaks on The Fringe Benefits of Failure, and the Importance of Imagination
J.K. Rowling, author of the best-selling Harry Potter book series, recently delivered her Commencement Address, “The Fringe Benefits of Failure, and the Importance of Imagination,” at the Annual Meeting of the Harvard Alumni Association. I was told about this speech by one of my friends on the members-only SiteSell forums for Site Build It! subscribers. Thanks, Colin. If I hadn't heard about her speech there, I might have missed it and that would have been a real shame. In reading her speech, I was surprised by how little she referred to Harry Potter, even though writing her novels took her to dizzying heights of success. Instead, she talks about the liberation of total failure and the importance of imagining new futures and different pasts. In talking about failure, part of what she emphasized was:
So why do I talk about the benefits of failure? Simply because failure meant a stripping away of the inessential. I stopped pretending to myself that I was anything other than what I was, and began to direct all my energy into finishing the only work that mattered to me. Had I really succeeded at anything else, I might never have found the determination to succeed in the one arena I believed I truly belonged. I was set free, because my greatest fear had already been realised, and I was still alive, and I still had a daughter whom I adored, and I had an old typewriter and a big idea. And so rock bottom became the solid foundation on which I rebuilt my life.
I have experienced this level of failure a couple of times in my life. It isn't fun, but it can be educational and liberating. Depending upon how you react to it, these experiences can put steel in your resolve and be a foundation upon which you can build your future success. It reminds me of the lines Kris Kristofferson wrote in "Bobby McGee" when he said, "Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose." Once you've lost everything - materially, that is - you aren't encumbered by the things you want to believe about yourself, because many of them fall away as you lose houses, cars, credit ratings, and other things we associate with material affluence. Other parts of the experience can be harder, or they can be liberating. For example, to one person, losing a spouse can be something that will hurt for decades. To another, it can be a difficult, but liberating, experience that will make it easier to build a better life, move in a different direction, and grow more as a person. This level of failure is truly difficult and poverty is not something I would wish on anyone. However, it can be life-changing, if you take the steps to do what you truly want to do. Like a phoenix rising from its own ashes, you can rise to new levels of success, understanding, and personal fulfillment that you would never have achieved, otherwise. Is it easy? No. Can you do it? Yes. As she progressed with her speech, Ms. Rowling says this about imagination:
You might think that I chose my second theme, the importance of imagination, because of the part it played in rebuilding my life, but that is not wholly so. Though I will defend the value of bedtime stories to my last gasp, I have learned to value imagination in a much broader sense. Imagination is not only the uniquely human capacity to envision that which is not, and therefore the fount of all invention and innovation. In its arguably most transformative and revelatory capacity, it is the power that enables us to empathise with humans whose experiences we have never shared.
Here is where the speech took a turn that really surprised me. I was sure she was going to emphasize the imagination that enabled her to write all the Harry Potter stories, but she went in a very different direction. Instead, she talked about her earliest exeriences when working with Amnesty International and all the suffering that had been experienced by people who had been tortured and killed and the uncertainty, pain, and worry experienced by their family and friends. I have to tell you, this is totally outside my own experiences, but after reading what she wrote, I have found more empathy for the people who have experienced these horrors. Compared to them, even in my deepest failures and during the darkest days of my life, I have had it easy and safe. Ms. Rowling continued and said:
Unlike any other creature on this planet, humans can learn and understand, without having experienced. They can think themselves into other people's minds, imagine themselves into other people's places.
Imagination is a powerful thing. It is the basis for all future inventions. By imagining, we can achieve things undreamed of by others. Napoleon Hill said, in Think and Grow Rich:
Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve.
This is the power that we have to create new worlds and change the horrors we have inherited from those who preceded us. We can write novels that inspire millions to read more. We can develop better products and services to solve problems and offer opportunities to people around the world. Or, when used negatively, we can imagine worse things that we can do to make the lives of our fellow earthlings even more miserable. The choice is up to us. The choice is up to you. Or, if you prefer, you can choose not to use your power of imagination. You can continue to lead the life you're living and not imagine the great future you can live if you pursue your dreams and follow your passions. Again, the choice is yours. Ms. Rowling closes her speech by talking about her friends. These are the people that offer support and help in times of need and share joy in times of abundance. Even when I lost everything, I still had my friends and family. True friends can be even more important than your family, because you may have closer bonds and more in common with them. You don't need a lot of friends, but I hope you have a few really close friends with whom you share your life. These friends are treasures worth far more than the rarest metals or the prettiest sparkly rocks. Share your life with your friends and family. Help each other live to your fullest potential. Thank you, Ms. Rowling, for an outstanding speech and I'm happy I was able to read it. (If you have broadband, you can watch the video.) The Fringe Benefits of Failure, and the Importance of Imagination Now, it's up to you. You have the power to change the world. Act on your dream! JD
