Can you make £1000 before breakfast?
Streetwise Publishing
If you’re brand new to the business opportunity world, this actually very good. I don’t know if you’ve read John Harrison’s ‘The Money Making Magic of a Funfair Goldfish’. But it’s similar in style. (Unsurprisingly, really, as Harrison is a head honcho at Streetwise Publishing.)
In my view, “How to Make £1,000…” is a starter product. An introduction into the mail order, Internet marketing and publishing world.
It explains… in a very entertaining and easy-to-follow way… EXACTLY how the information publishing business works. Read it, and you’ll know how repackaged books, CD-ROMs, information products, DVDs, resale rights, email newsletters, eBooks, manuals, and sales promotions all fit together.
You’ll understand how and why people buy information products. You’ll learn the basic principles of marketing and selling. You’ll get plenty of ideas. The lay of the land will become startlingly clear to you.
However, the downside is that Wilson’s manual covers a LOT of ground, but doesn’t focus on any one specific aspect of the business. So if you’ve been around the block a bit, none of this will be particularly new. If you’ve already tried selling information products like courses, books, and manuals, you may hunger for more specific detail.
Yes, you get insights into every area of information publishing… but no specific blueprint on any one aspect.
I would recommend this book to someone who was new to business opportunities. And to anyone who sees the Andrew Reynolds and Tim Lowes of this world and thinks, “How does it all work? How do these guys make money?”
