The key to success and WEALTH on Linkedin is pretty simple, but it requires that one overcome mistaken beliefs. The belief that “Linkedin is for networking” is very, very unprofitable.
This belief drives people to invite other people to join their network, and then to feel good that they’ve got hundreds of connections. Yet, those hundreds of connections are worth zero dollars.
This is because “content” is missing. In other words, most well connected people have nothing to sell.
If they had something to sell, their invitation letter would mention what they had to offer and would perhaps offer some of that value for free to new connections.
I know this is tough to hear for many of you, but just take a look at how many connections you have, and how much money you’ve made from them.
The good news is that some people have already figured this out. For example, they’ve sent me an invitation to become an affiliate for them. That is, for every unit of their product that I can sell to my connections, I get 30%.
That’s the great thing. The content you sell does not have to be content that you developed or own legally. Remember, the success formula is wealth = content X connections.
It’s even possible for you to represent a variety of authors and offer that great variety of books or ebooks to all your connections. For instance, you could create a form via Sureforms.net so that your connections could express what ebooks or special reports they’re interested in, and you would then send a partial version of those ebooks and special reports to them. Then, if they want to purchase the whole ebook or special report, they can do so via a Payloadz link. With every purchase, you make 30% and the author makes 70%.
In the above example, you’re basically a “library affiliate.”
Please note that the Sureforms.net form is set up so you can let your connections express their interest in various ebooks and special reports. It’s possible that some of your connections are not interested at all in any of the ebooks or special reports you represent. Then, it’s important to respect them and NOT email them any promotion.
However, here’s where it gets interesting. The people who buy an ebook or special report from such a library, could ALSO become affiliates and make money too!
This is such a great idea that I’m implementing it today. This is a powerful business model that I’ve acronymized as “AKME”, for Affiliate Knowledge Marketing Escalation.
I will write more on it.
