Today's Adventure in the Biz Opp Jungle:
'In which Charlie reveals a secret... sees the first fruits of The Inbox Tycoon... as your first email newsletters begin to appear.'
Hi,
As you know...
(Or had RAMMED down your throat, more like!)
At the end of last year, I wrote my own biz opp product, 'The Inbox Tycoon'.
It's all about creating simple email newsletters and using them to generate a regular, part-time income... or, if you already have a home business... to boost sales, website traffic and customer loyalty.
The reason I wrote the book was that I know dozens of companies and individuals who write and make money from email newsletters. And I have my own, too.
So I simply had to write down everything I knew. This way, anybody could copy me.
Seems fair enough, right?
But I'll let you into a little secret... (And I tell you, this is one of the weirdest things about writing a biz opp product for the first time.)
At first I wondered: "Will anybody really give this a proper go?"
************************************
I wanted to be a jungle warrior, not a snake
************************************
The sad truth is, many unscrupulous snakes in the biz opp jungle are happy to pump out rubbish biz opps.
They promise the earth, then deliver something that SEEMS substantial. But in fact, it's a load of stuff you could have got from a quick scan on the interweb.
Or it's something that's so hard to put into action, you have to cough up huge sums of money for the guru to "teach you" personally.
But I wanted to be different.
I wanted to create a business opportunity that would REALLY teach you the secrets of something that REALLY makes money... all for less than £50.
As a biz opp reviewer myself, I've got too much too lose by producing something duff.
And the only real proof that you've done a good job in writing a course, book or part-work is when REAL people like it and give it a go.
If people don't try it, then all you've done is sold them an expensive pile of paper.
Okay, yes. If they don't send it back for the refund, you make some quick cash out of it... but then you are also destined to end up on a spike in the fiery depths of hell.
(Or wherever it is you believe people go when they've been really bad).
I KNOW my business works. It's 100% proven. For the past 6 years it's made millions for small publishing companies in the UK, South Africa, the USA, Australia and Germany.
And I know individuals can easily do the same on a smaller scale. Because I do it myself.
But would people give the 'The Inbox Tycoon' a real go?
*******************************************
Yes! The first Inbox babies have already been born!
*******************************************
It's only been a couple of months since people bought The Inbox Tycoon. And already I've seen countless dozens of ideas, sign-up pages and first attempts.
It's really exciting to see these, and I'm happy to look at them and offer my opinions.
Better still, some have already launched!
Here's an email newsletter that a biz opp jungler has set up about vans. But he's gone even further and created a website for it, too.
(You don't need a website to start an email newsletter, but it's actually easy and The Inbox Tycoon shows you how).
Check this out:
http://www.vannews.co.uk/
It's still at the early stages, but I like that he's chosen a niche topic with a particular kind of customer, who has particular needs and interests.
Here's another one that reviews and lists the latest fashion samples in London. As you'll see, the actual email newsletter doesn't take a lot of writing. It's more of a listings service, but with a personal touch.

And finally... not that I'm condoning the use of illegal substances... but for your entertainment purposes...
Here's another VERY niche idea that's just been launched off the back of The Inbox Tycoon product:

In our 45-minute chat, we reveal lots of information, background, tips and insights about making money from emails.
One thing, though...
You should go to the loo, get yourself a drink and make yourself comfortable BEFORE you start listening.
Why?
Because if you pause it, the recording starts from the beginning again. This isn't deliberate. It's just a quirk of the technology.

And even if you decide to send it back for a full refund after the 3 month risk-free trial...

It's a right riveting read!

I've had some really good responses from people who've enjoyed reading the book.
'Within days of ordering your book it popped through my oversized letterbox and I am DELIGHTED.'
-- George Law
'Congrats on your Inbox Tycoon it is a great publication!"
-- Sandie Strickland
'I've just read [The Inbox Tycoon], cover to cover, and it's brilliant... I'll certainly be doing an e-letter.'
-- Peter Davies
Yes, I know I am blowing my own trumpet here... but why not, eh?
I spent many years discovering the secrets of email newsletters, and many months writing the book.
May as well tell it to the world!
