   Being a Product owner is certainly a smart idea. Being an Affiliate we are required to many things some of which are creating websites, writing affiliate reviews, SEO, PPC and driving traffic to the vendor's page which in turn builds them a buying list and leaves us competing against other affiliates. An affiliate income is not an "Auto Pilot" income as Affiliates are required to constantly do all the tasks above listed repeatedly. Although there are advantages of being an Affiliate like not having to worry about your own product and providing customer support etc. being a vendor is certainly a long term approach towards a stable income. Once people start seeing you as an Authority in your niche being a vendor it is then much easier to come up with similar products in the Niche and building up an even larger list and income. I think creating a video coaching course is the way to go and people are interested in learning by example which is a lot easier to present via videos. Although you can have ebooks incorporated as a part of the course. Starting a Membership site is a great way of earing a recurring income and is something I would like to focus on while creating my own info product. One great way is to create a software that members have access to only if they are are current members thus keeping the membership site running profitably.

   Being an affiliate for the last year and a half I would love to learn more on the subject of "creating my own product". I am glad to have learned the key skills of building websites, driving traffic and other skills which a good affiliate must have. As a result of acquiring these skills I stand a good chance of marketing my own product successfully. Hence I should be one of the "lucky winners" of this competition.

   Hello Vita Vee,
   Your link is here…. It's a a new client site I put down for a moment to read your mail. http://www.carolinaupholsteryshop.com/links.htm

   Internet Marketing is HARD

   Nearly a year ago, after a 12 year run of developing my own websites, and sites for others, I decided to check out the other half. One of my first conquests was your Zero to Profits videos. This taught me the basics.
   After a year of working very hard…30 or more GOOD niche websites, I barely break even…and I have spent a lot of money working for others. I have done it ALL.
   At this point in time, I feel like a Google pincushion.
   I also feel like I'm some kind of PhD expert at what ought to work as far as internet marketing goes. What I thought I knew about PPC and SEO before, isn't 1/50th of what I know now. I'm still looking for the magic website to help me make my million or so.
   Now more than ever, I realize that what I put on the shelf….the thing that made enough money to let me go off on my PPC excursion in the first place is the very thing that did and can make money consistently, if worked.
   What worked for me, will work for anyone..if worked…I'd like to share. It's a pet project that I have been nursing. I'm ready now. I have paid my dues.

   Out of the hundreds of purveyors of fairy dust out there who now consider me red meat, there is only three that I have come to trust. The first one that captured my trust was…you. Vita Vee. And you have made money off me in the past. You laid the foundation that at least gave me a chance to succeed. Without that, I surely would have been just spinning my wheels.
   The strategies you taught are the basics that I still use to this day, even with all the mass of other stuff I have learned.
   Unfortunately for the marketers, their pitches no longer work on me, because I'm past all of that. I have done it all. At best, the new systems coming out serve to remind me of things I have forgotten, or to spur me on to research I hadn't thought about. It's good enough for that.
   If anything, I'm ready to present my own system, that I know works, if someone is willing to work. And it's NOTHING like what is already out there. It works even without knowing all the stuff I have learned over the last year, as long as you can make a web pages…but to make it a well oiled SEO machine, it's better to understand the basics, as you taught.
   Alas, I know enough to know that I don't know enough to bring it off on my own. That's why I deserve to be the grand prize winner of your contest. Why, I'm sure I could be the poster boy of purveyors of your dreams. Viva la France! Oui oui, Vita Vee!
   Sincerely,
   Norman Morrison

   One day (some time back), I had one of those -
   ah hah!
   light bulb over the head
   zen enlightenment moments

   About?
   Affiliate Marketing of course!

   My revelation made me laugh – out loud.
   It was this -
   being an affiliate marketer was a bit like being a -
   rat in a rat race
   a dog after a bone
   a shark after fresh blood,

   But in this case, chasing after some (often absurdly ridiculous) keyword, that was invented by the product-vendor.
   e.g.- Google Terminator, Google This, Google That, Google Bitch-Slap, etc…

   A term that nobody had ever searched for 2 weeks ago, now had (largely generated by the JV Partners / early adapters) 10 million pages in the SERPs.
   (Using outsourced labor and/or automated tools.)

   And the Product Vendor?
   He / she was laughing all the way to the bank, and 90% of the affiliate winnings would be made by 10% of the early-bird affiliates…

   Which is why being the Product Vendor, and Owning that (silly?) keyword phrase is -
   soooooo much sweeter.

   So to sum up (the reasons I'm expecting to win)-
   1) Achieved Zen Enlightenment (Satori or Kenso)
   2) Have already named my cats Vita and Vee.
   3) Only way I can afford it.
   (And still keep my Ultra-Spinnable subscription). ;D

   Oh well, back to my Piaf collection, while I await the outcome…

   Hi Vita Vee,

   How are you doing? Hope you really explode this launch and grab the top rankings.

   With regards to what I think are the advantages of being a product creator rather than an affiliate marketer, here are some of my opinions:

   1. You can have affiliates promoting and making money for you.

   Normally, when you are an affiliate marketer, you would have to promote other people's products for a certain commission and help them earn money first before you can earn money yourself.

   Obviously, by being a product creator, you will be able to let other people do the promotion work for you while you concentrate on providing value to the customers. Actually, just having affiliates promoting your products for you is a great advantage in itself.

   2. People help you to build your list

   When you are an affiliate, you help other people to build their list and their long-term revenue stream. However, by being the one to create the product and to build a list based on people who are interested in your product, you are building a buyer's list and it is done on complete autopilot.

   As they say, the money is in the relationship with your list. You can concentrate on building that relationship with your list, while others help you to build people to subscribe to your list. The amount of work one person can do is very limited no matter how good you are. By having hundreds of people doing it for you, it becomes a highly optimized process that proceeds on autopilot.

   3. Something that you can give away as bonus for launches

   Having your own product is always useful. Apart from selling the product, if you have an extremely high quality product, you can easily leverage it to earn money from product launches.

   If you didn't have your own product, this would be much more tough as you would be fighting against people who are giving away their hard-earned product which is being coveted by customers everywhere.

   Having a product means that you have something to leverage, and you can leverage it in various ways.

   4. Earning you money by giving away value rather than time

   When you are an affiliate marketer, you have to give away your time in order to earn money. You need to load up your articles in SENuke, write articles by hand, promote and drive traffic to your site like there's no tomorrow.

   You just have to do so many, many things. And many people think that they are earning money on autopilot this way, but actually if you have to trade your time, you are paying big time. Affiliate marketing is never free, no matter what resources you use, unless you consider your time to be worth nothing, of course…

   By creating products, you are exchanging your value for money instead of your time. You don't have to waste your valuable time promoting, whereas you can instead focus on building value.

   It is a one-time investment of effort that keeps giving your profits again and again.

   5. Something you can add your name to

   When you promote products for other people as an affiliate marketer, you have nothing to back up your name to. Sure you may be earning hundreds of dollars on affiliate products, but you can't put a name on those earnings.

   When you create a product, it is something that you can put your name on. That product belongs to you, and that in itself is something to be proud of. It is somewhat like an accomplishment. Not only that, but having your name on something you create helps you to build up your brand and image.

   6. Building up your brand name and image

   As I mentioned before, when you create a product yourself, and if that product is an excellent one, you will be able to build leadership in your market. By helping people and sharing your knowledge through your product, you are letting people know that you are someone who has the knowledge and skills in that area.

   By building an image, brand name, and following, you will be able to provide even more value to your customers and followers while getting money in return. The building of brand name and value only helps to increase your sales further, while opening opportunities to many other potential income streams such as JVs.

   7. Best way to build a long-term sustainable business

   By building up a brand name and a following, you are in effect building up a long-term business for yourself. You write an eBook once, sell it and keep getting paid for it time and time again until who knows when.

   You just keep earning back on your initial investment of effort. When you have several products, that's a lot of money coming in over the long run, and you don't have to expend much to get it either.

   8. Earning money while you eat, sleep, and play video games.

   This point speaks for itself. When you have a source of income that keep coming in, and hundreds of affiliates promoting your product for you, it is unavoidable that you would keep earning money.

   While you are eating, you get sales. While you are sleeping you get sales. And when you are playing video games, you get sales too. It is as close to a passive income as you can get, and the result is that you can invest your time in other activities, with your family, friends, and other areas of your business.

   9. A chance to help others with your expertise

   By creating your own info product, you are in short helping others by sharing with them what you know. For example, perhaps you know how to cure cancer naturally, something that doctors and scientists today are very ignorant of.

   There may be someone suffering from cancer who picks up your product, and manages to cure themselves. If you were just an affiliate, no way you could share all the useful knowledge that you have and earn money from it.

   Similarly, in the same manner, there's no way for you to earn a million dollars a year sweeping the floor. There's also no way for you to earn millions of dollars a year cleaning the washrooms. The reason is because the amount of money you get is directly proportional to the amount of value you give out.

   By giving out more value, you are able to earn more. And I believe that is one of the key reasons why you should be creating your own product instead of promoting other people's products. You are not giving out much value whatsoever by promoting other people's products, so understandably the return is much less.

   10. Self-satisfaction

   When you reach a certain stage in building a business, it's not about money. Sometimes you want to get some self-satisfaction just for doing things. One of the ways you can do this is by creating your own products.

   As I mentioned before, creating your own products can give you a sense of achievement, it can give you self-satisfaction. You earn money by giving out great value and by helping people.

   If you are an affiliate, there's no way that people will come up to you and say, "Thank you so much for marketing affiliate products! The way you market your products changed my life!" No way on earth…

   But when you create a product that is great and helps other people, when people come up to you and thank you because your product changed their life, it gives you a great feeling!

   11. Leverage

   Like I said before, time is extremely limited. Resources for any particular individual are always limited. There is only so much time in a day, and once it is gone you will never be getting it back.

   By creating your own product and letting other people sell it for you, you are leveraging the time and energy of others rather than yourself.

   The end result is that you are able to get more done, and you are able to save your time by leveraging the time of others.

   Think about it…

   Which is would be more profitable for you…

   Spending 8 hours a day promoting other people's products, or letting 100 other people spend half an hour a day promoting your own product?

   12. JVs

   By creating your own products, you open up the way to create joint ventures with other product vendors and marketers.

   The result is that you can gain even more leverage for earning money, and you will be able to build long-term relationships.

   People often say that, most of the time, it is not what you know but who you know that makes a difference. I don't really agree with this, but you might…

   13. A source of recurring income

   Imagine that you spend one day creating a great info product and you sell it the next day.

   How many can you sell it? Just once? Twice?

   You can keep selling it over and over again until the end of time. Earning money by creating info products is an evergreen source of revenue, even if Google changes your algorithms it has nothing to do with you.

   You will be able to earn money time and time again from one investment. It is just like a video store that rents out videos to their customers multiple times. People keep paying for the same thing over and over again.

   ———-

   Well, I have a lot of other reasons why I think it is better to earn money by creating your own product rather than being solely an affiliate, but it would take me a lot more time to write them down.

   What do I think of Info Prodigy?

   Well, even though I don't have my own product, I can tell it is going to be a great product based on the products released by Tim and Steve in the past.

   Plus, they are revealing the business model that made them millions of dollars over the years. It is a great opportunity.

   By the way, here is my link to your page:
   http://www.themysteriousmarketer.com/software/article-marketing-software/instant-article-factory/instant-article-factory-review-bonus

   I want to create eBooks. Why should I be one of the winners? Obviously because I understand the value of being a product creator, so the course would suit me. Also, I'm currently in the process of creating my own products, so it would be a great help!

   Cheers,

   Being an infoproduct creator means you finally got leverage: what you do (create product and sales material) will be leveraged till the day you die – as people will now fight to get their sites and articles online at the top of google and get the most readership for keywords of the market, and for your product.

   So now youre no longer the one husttling sday to day to get your sites to be ranked highly and viewed by many. Whoever wins at that game… you still end up the biggest winner in the end. BEcause everything affiliate do makes you money!

   What i think about infoprodigy: While we have heard of the "its a complete a to z system to creating and sellingf your own products online" selling point for other programs…
   …those selling them usually dont make that high an income per year with it.

   But infoprodigy, you get the teaching of people who made millions with it. And those are the caliber of people i want to learn from. So i think infoprodigy will share the same strategies, concepts and techniques they use to make millions, so i want THAT particular infoproduct creation/selling programs over the others, as a result.

   Hey,

   This is my take on the advantages of product creation over affiliate marketing:

   The Product Creator and HIS Affiliate

   This may the biggest difference between creating your own products and promoting affiliate products: While an affiliate has to do SEO, PPC and other traffic getting techniques to promote a product, a product creator does the promotion by recruiting affiliates.

   An affiliate marketer is basically a one-man promotion tool, while a product creator can have multiple affiliates, kind of like working for this product creator. You can imagine this process as a pyramid, where the product creator is on top.

   For an affiliate marketer, getting someone to buy the promoted product is the same thing as one sale. For a product creator, recruiting one affiliate may mean multiple sales.

   So is it now the affiliate who feeds the product creator or the other way around..?

   The Cons of Product Creation?

   When people praise affiliate marketing, there are always certain things that are claimed to be the pros of affiliate marketing when compared to product creation:

   -You don't have to deal with customers

   Why wouldn't you want to deal with customers? If someone buys from you once, isn't there a possibility to make a customer-for-life, and get this customer buy from you multiple times?

   Besides, when you've got too many customers to deal with, that just means that you probably can afford to outsource your customer support..!

   -It's easy to get started

   If it was so easy, why there are still so many people struggling to get started? Affiliate marketing is one of the most popular business models online, so I bet many of these struggling beginners are just that – affiliate marketers…

   Product creation can be as easy or even easier than affiliate marketing. You just need the product, the sales funnel and a few affiliates… It's actually pretty if you'd just try it. Besides, often times creating a product is much more enjoyable than doing those tedious promotional tasks that are required as an affiliate.

   -You can get started free!

   Yes, let's make affiliate marketing even harder by only relying on free resources!

   Well guess what, product creation is free too. It can cost a few bucks to submit your product to clickbank marketplace, or something like that, but us Internet marketers aren't afraid to spend some money, are we?

   -You don't need any technical knowledge

   What's so technical about selling your own products? What is there that can't be solved by following tutorials (which are plenty, by the way), or by contacting support?

   Isn't affiliate marketing the concept that is harder to understand? Everyone knows what product creation is, but, for example, my parents had no idea what affiliate marketing means. Also, SEO, PPC and things like that can be very complicated, you know.

   -There's no inventory to deal with

   Information products don't need no inventory either! Next!

   -You don't have to recruit affiliates or deal with people in general

   Oh, you're suffering from fear of people. I'm sorry…

   Seriously, let me tell you this: Sending a few emails back and forth can be pretty simple when compared to SEO, PPC and other TECHNICAL stuff like that. Just… get over it.

   -You don't have to deal with payments, sales taxes, refunds and things like that

   Hehe, this is pretty fun. You don't want to deal with payments, eh?! And an affiliate doesn't have to pay taxes? Hah! Also, refunds can be pretty heart-braking stuff, but it's rarely personal, so don't worry about it.

   -It's faster to get started with affiliate marketing that with product creation

   How fast can you make a product? That's how fast you can start making money with your own products. Product creation can be as small-scale, and as easily approachable as affiliate marketing.

   Info-Product Business

   Creating information products is a real business. You get targeted leads by selling products, you can create a brand and get recognition within the market that you are in, and you really get to help people, maybe even on a personal level.

   As Zig Ziglar has said:

   “If you help enough people get what they want, you’ll get what you want”

   And creating products may be the best way to help other people, as you'll have direct control over everything. That is why it may be the best way to get what you want – whatever it is.

   Products that you have created are truly lasting assets, just like a physical product. An info-product just doesn't never go away.

   Modern economy isn't based on affiliate marketing, but it's the product, where it all starts from. And if you don't feel comfortable with the idea of creating a huge course and getting lots of sales, then start small – create a small report, sell it for $7, and start rolling from there. Product creation can be a small-scale business too, if you're comfortable with that idea.

   Overall, affiliate marketing is a great business model, but product creation is too often forgotten by beginners, because it's so "expensive", "difficult", "slow" and what else.

   Product creation is where the big money is (the $10MM launches and little things like that), but it can also act as a quick start for beginners. You also got to remember, that the IM niche isn't the only market where money is made by selling products.

   What do I think about Info Prodigy?

   Well, as I am in the process of creating a product right now, I am really interested in Info Prodigy. I know Steve and Tim, and their stuff pretty well, as I have bought from the previously, so I know I'll be getting great content, if I get this course.

   I've also been planning on incorporating info-product creation to my business more deeply in the near future, because it has such a damn good potential. I would be very willing to take action on this product.

   Thank you,

   Having first hand experience with Steve Clayton's Commission Blueprint, I am looking forward to what the guys and gal (Kate) are going to do with Info Prodigy.

   Having been an affiliate marketer for almost 2 years now, I can tell you that you can make money from affiliate marketing. I've created free reports / ebooks to give away, built websites, and wrote articles to promote others.

   All those techniques work, but a month ago, I started to think:

   I just worked my butt off doing a lot of work to send them highly qualified leads.

   What if I kept these leads myself?
   What if I could create a better ebook, video, or solution for these leads I worked so hard for?
   What if I could leverage affiliates like how the company I'm promoting uses me?

   Because if you think about it, which would you rather have? The lead or the product?

   The lead is infinitely more important because that's who has the money. The product is worthless with no leads

   I can always create a product if I have a lead of buyers.

   So I decided the smart thing to do would be to transition from an affiliate marketer to product creator.

   In the Info Prodigy report, they give a great tip on how to easily create an ebook. Why couldn't I just take a bunch of articles and organize them into a sell-able book?

   Now the leads would be mine to convert, I could get affiliates to promote me, and build a real brand and business that I could cash out if I wanted.

   This flipped off a light switch in my head and I can't wait to see the strategies and techniques in Info Prodigy.

   The benefits of having your own product all really come down to one basic concept.

   OWN WHAT YOU DO.

   I didn't mean to shout it, but many people who want to make money online don't think about owning a real business. Making money online is one thing, but owning a real business is another entirely. Affiliate marketers don't own anything (unless they are smart to use an opt in form to build a list before sending traffic to the affiliate offer).

   Owning a business means having an asset that you can sell in the future. Your own website, your own product, your own list, your own branded revenue stream that can over time becomes more trusted and hence has a higher worth.

   Affiliate marketers don't build their own business. They build someone else's. That is the detriment to the affiliate money making model. There is no equity built up over time.

   There is no better way to leverage your time and effort than to spend it upfront to create your own business system and products which can then be promoted by other people who don't want the commitment to their own business and control their own destiny.

   In the affiliate model you can spend weeks/months to create a profitable campaign that can be lost at any time with variables that are beyond your control.

   When you own what you do, you control your own motivation, your own original ideas. Your motivational level and your intellectual property is what will make the difference between being a runner up and one of the ones who come out on top.

   This business is really for the people who are motivated to change their lives own their own terms, with their own unique intellectual property that controls their own destiny.

   Own what you do is my best advice to anyone who is contemplating a long term strategy in online marketing.

    Creating your own product puts you miles ahead of the game. It will generate more revenue, but more importantly it gets your name out there as an individual who is an authority. The more products you create, the more users you have on the internet and your "Brand" will be more readily recognized as being a "leader" in your specific area.

    Additionally, Info Prodigy provides all the training necessary to successfully create your own product. I have tried it and I like it. It provides easy step-by-step instructions that a complete newbie can follow to create successful high converting products.

    Thanks,

    Being a product owner is always the money magnet. It is really only through product creation that one can have true residual income, with virtually no work.

    Info Prodigy is the last product Steven Clayton going to produce, and its an exciting news for the IM community. Not only it will rock the whole IM community, but it will also benefit and encourage more product creation. Will this get saturated? I believe that as long as there are people, info products will never get saturated, UNLESS, it is rehashed information, then that is a different story.

    With the reputation received from CB2, I am certain that this IP will only get even better.

    Nice marketing. Gets people to read the stuff. Gets them to sign up. Gets them to read the stuff again. Gets links and traffic to the site.
    Nice.
    I don't want/have time to create my own product. Sorry. I'm still impressed though, you are in the premier league and I'm not committed enough to join you- and I think you MUST be to succeed.
    Negative? Yes.
    Unbeliever? No, just tired of being launch fodder again – it's endless.
    I don't want to pay for any more courses. It doesn't work for me. I am changing tack and just doing my own thing. Make my own mistakes, conclusions, tweaks and tests, techniques and choices. That way I can make better use of my time than following other people who have made a lot of money teaching people how to make a lot of money. It's an incestuous circle that has spun my head long enough.
    Good luck with the fairy dust all.

    Frankly,I don't care about getting this course(even for free)!
    I'd rather stay as an affiliate rather than to be a product owner.
    In fact,I think this course is a little similar to the product launch formula by Jeff Walker.
    That's being said,thanks about offering a 3 licenses for free,plus,I already know the quality of Steve and Tim's products.
    Kind Regards.

    Hello,

    I mostly work with adult biz (porn sites). Started as affiliate.
    Being affiliate is relatively easy. People were giving away free domains, free hosting, tutorials etc.
    Just needed to work. However year after year it was going to be more and more hard to earn cash. More & more job required to earn same amount.

    Then I've get the idea, to make "other people work for me" and create affiliate program. After spending around 20k$ I get back around 1k$ within last 3 years or so…
    Many mistakes were made, and porn tubes also had large impact (also to my work as affiliate) but it was valuable lesson even though.
    Gras is always greener on the other side.

    However I'm still thinking about next affiliate program. This time non adult.
    One failure cannot make me surrender. And I still believe that REALLY GOOD affiliate program with GOOD product. Will make much more cash then working as affiliate only. Just a bit of luck required

    As for the info prodigy itself. I find it really interesting, and just can't wait to get it. (This is the reason why I'm taking part of this contest)

    P.S. Sorry for my poor english.

    Hi Vita Vee,

    I'm looking forward to seeing this course and your ongoing reviews of it.

    I especially like your quote:

    "At this point I would really suggest that when you work through Info Prodigy you take your mind away from Internet Marketing Info Product creation and find a different market or niche to start off in."

    It doesn't matter if it's affiliate marketing or selling your own products the best results can be made away from the IM niche yet people have a too narrow focus. Break away from the IM niche for a while and see the possibilities that selling to real people and developing a real business can offer.

    Without doubt the creation of products is the key to profits. Most people fear the work or the expertise needed to create products. Don't.

    Leverage your IM skills and outsource everything you can't do. Remember that a General gets paid more than a foot soldier. What I mean is be the big thinker with a strategic vision and hire foot soldiers to do the work.

    If Info prodigy can change peoples mindsets about how easy it is to create products then it can only be a good thing.

    Info Prodigy is sure to be a big hit in the Internet Marketing industry!

    Like Steve & Tim's previous products, I am sure Info Prodigy will deliver high quality content that is easy to understand and easy to digest. Steve, who does the videos, speaks very simply so even people just starting internet marketing with zero experience can follow along and feel comfortable diving into the content. Each module is usually very sorted with recommended links and resources to help you get the most out of your training. The steps are in perfect order you so you can build your first business while progressing through the course.

    I am personally a fan of Steve & Tim and I have gone through and implemented everything they have taught thus far. Commission Blueprint helped me setup affiliate sites I could not only promote via PPC and other paid advertising, but also helped me get ranked in the SERPs for free traffic and leads! Niche Blueprint built upon Commission Blueprint by teaching me how to promote physical products via niche eCommerce stores. Now that they’ve taught you how to dominate in the Affiliate Marketing and eCommerce fields, they are taking you to the final point of the Internet Triangle…

    Info Products!

    Tim and Steve have really put a lot of time into this course. I was able to preview the course outline and the amounts of details in this course are amazing!

    They literally take you from brainstorming to post-sales follow-ups and more!

    If that’s not good enough, they also offer this course for only $297 which is a complete steal. This information is guaranteed to make you WAYYY more than that on your first product alone but they always sell their courses for far less than they could.

    The fact of the matter is Steve & Time truly want to help people and see them succeed. They make MILLIONS of dollars every year PRACTICING WHAT THEY PREACH and they really don’t need to make money from info products. They do it to help people. It’s just that plain and simple.

    So now that I’ve described why anyone who doesn’t purchase this product is missing out on the biggest opportunity of their lives, let me explain some benefits to starting an information marketing business…

    WAIT! I forgot to mention that this opportunity will only be open for a few days. That’s right; they are only selling this course for a limited time (until August 16th) so you need to invest in it while you still can!

    So…

    Why is Information Products by far the best way to create a nice big residual income on the internet?

    There are literally a million reasons! But let me point out a few of the biggest…

    LOW START-UP COSTS

    Info Products are easy to create. Also, they take literally only a small amount of money (and sometimes no money) to create. All you need is sales page, some graphics, and your product (in the form of an eBook, videos, dvds, or whatever media you choose to deliver in) and that’s it! Buy a domain if you want and some hosting for a few bucks and your good to go!

    AUTOMATION

    The best thing you can do with internet marketing is develop businesses that run on auto-pilot. Information products can literally do this from Day 1! Once your product is launched and you have made affiliates aware of it (which you’ll l learn about in Info Prodigy), all you have to do is sit back and watch the money roll in. Affiliates do all the marketing and promotion for you!

    LIST BUILDING

    The biggest way to make recurring revenue online is by having and maintaining lists of people ready to buy products. When you own your own product, you can collect literally thousands of emails of people interested in your products. The best thing is, a ton of people who go to your site and don’t buy your product will still sign up to your newsletter where you can contact them and close the sale!

    Another great thing about having a list is when you see new products come out you think your customers might like, you can simple spend 5 minutes writing them an email telling them about the product, pop in your affiliate link and watch thousands of dollars in commissions come in for 5 minutes of work. There is NO LIMIT to how often you can do this. Think of the income potential!

    Yet another benefit is cross-promoting. When new products come out you think your customers might like, you can contact the owner of the product to do an email swap where they will send an email to their list about your product in trade for you doing the same for them. Make commissions from their product and get new sales for your product all at the same time!

    AFFILIATES

    Even though I have mentioned these guys already, I haven’t mentioned what’s so great about having them. The first thing is the simple fact that they drive free traffic to your website and you only have to pay them when the traffic converts into a sale!

    Another great thing about affiliates is that sooner or later you will meet what are called super-affiliates. These guys are the real deal and when you build a relationship with them you can ask them to promote new products of yours when you come out with them. Super-affiliates usually drive 80% of your sales while all the other affiliates amount to only about 20%. That’s how powerful these guys can be!

    IMMEDIATE GLOBAL MARKET

    Info products know no bounds. In other words, they aren’t a local store that caters to one city, they are global. You can have people from the USA, Canada, Europe, Asia, and any other countries purchase your products!

    24/7 SALES AUTOMATION

    A great thing about info products is they can make you money 24/7. Your sales page and checkout is automated so customers can purchase and receive their items instantly. It may sound crazy but it’s true and Info Prodigy will show you how to set it up step-by-step!

    AUTHORITY

    Creating products is an easy way to throw your name around your market (if you choose). You can quickly become a “name” in your niche where people look to you for advice and look forward to your releasing more information. This also leads into another benefit…

    NEW REVENUE OPPORTUNITIES

    Say what? Yeah, I said it. Besides promoting other peoples products and/or services to your loyal customers, you can also receive invitations to private events, and even can be offered money (sometimes over 5 figures) to come speak at seminars, events, or conventions!

    You’ll also get customers who email you asking if you know about “this” or “that”. These emails can ive you great ideas for new products by showing you first-hand what your customers need!

    YOU ARE YOUR OWN BOSS

    With info products, you know how much you’re getting paid, when you’re getting paid, and more. You can control your sales pages, change them at will, and make any changes to any aspect of the business you want. With affiliate marketing, you rely on someone else to pay you for your hard work. You can spend weeks optimizing an offer to convert well only to find out the offer was removed and you have to start all over again. Some companies just run away and never pay you either!

    You have complete control. Don’t like accepting PayPal? You can use Google Checkout. Don’t like Google Checkout, use Clickbank. The possibilities are endless and you can change EVERYTHING when you WANT.

    OUTSOURCING BENEFITS

    Eventually you can outsource the entire business to other people and have them create you new products, build sales pages, find new niches, handle customer service and more! The best part is you can hire some of these people for $2 an hour or less! Tim and Steve tell you exactly how to do this in their course!

    RECURRING REVENUE

    Info products sell like crazy. When you have your product being promoted, you can continue to get sales month after month and even years after!

    My friend created a simple video last year on how to use a specific piece of computer software he liked. He has continually been making about $9,000 per month from this product and it’s all automated! It’s on complete auto-pilot! No joke!

    INSTANT GRATIFICATION

    One thing info product creation has over 99% of all other internet business opportunities is that you can have instant gratification. Once your product is live and on the net, you can get your first sale within seconds!

    With affiliate marketing, you have to test and test to become profitable via paid advertising. If your using SEO, you have to wait months to start seeing any results!

    eCommerce also takes a long time as well as niche sites and many other opportunities. With Info products, your sales engine turns on the minute your site is available online!

    CONCLUSION

    All in all there is really no reason why Info Products shouldn’t be at the top of your list for a sustainable business that can bring you long-lasting income for years. You can work 4 hours per week creating new products and easily build a six-figure business in no time!

    I have to urge you as a fan of Tim and Steve as well as an Info Product creator myself (in many different niches) that you not taking this opportunity to learn from the best teachers on the planet will be the biggest mistake you’ve made in your lifetime. Thirty days from now you could literally have a brand new 5 figure monthly income. I’m serious. How do I know this? I’ve done it myself!

    This will be my top course pick for 2010 and it should be yours too! $297 will seem like nothing when you’re making more than that every single day!

    Do yourself and your family a favor and get Info Prodigy today!

    Hi VV,

    As a new Niche USA client, I am still looking for a away to "break" into IM success. I have tried many things over the last 5 years including adsense, clickbank and affiliate marketing and have bought countless EBooks and courses all to no avail.

    With my USA subscription giving me access to your forums, I am starting to see a bigger picture where I can build a real business. I can build traffic to my websites using USA's and I can see that more traffic means more income. However, my present monetisation seems to be subject to the whims of "Adcents" which fluctuates daily.

    I have never had a product of my own to sell as I though it would be too hard to develop a product that would be useful and caable of being succesfully marketed. After looking over Info Prodigy, maybe my mindset has been wrong all along. Info Prodigy looks like it can provide the "holy grail" for me and I can't wait for the chance to give a test run and write a resume boasting of my newfound IM sucess.

    The Advantages of being a Product Creator rather than a Affiliate Marketer

    I want you to pay full attention to what I am going to say. I am sure you are already affiliate marketing or you are skeptical on the pros and cons of making money online. Affiliate marketing is basically you helping to sell something for someone and them paying you a commission.

    This way of making money online has the most disadvantages; you are not in total control and depending on your future online it would be wiser to affiliate with products that soley involve people buying something and then there being no connection via email list.

    There are some affiliate products that you can help to sell for someone and even though you are going to get more money than the product creator from that one product – they will benefit from your sale more then you can imagine

    Let me explain

    Your sale for an affiliate marketer – lets say an informational product on how to be more successful online.

    Unless you have your own products online, on how to go about being succesful online, or at least an email list set up that is of the same valuable level of the product you are affiliating with; the customer you have just sent to their site to get your commision:-

    will remain on their email list
    will be sold up in the confirmation of their email list
    will probably see that this internet marketer is much better than you
    They will potentially leave your email list
    once they are gone they will talk of the new internet marketer that you reffered to them, but never you
    if they then do come back they will expect the world of your email broadcasts – if you cant live up to this you will recieve a negative aura

    In life you have chiefs and red indians, not anyone can spot an indian from a mile away but a chief sticks out like a sore thumb, because they are filled with knowledge incomprehendable to that of a red indian.

    If I was to ask you who is more valuable between a Chief and a Red Indian – you would say….

    Exactly – so that breaks down the advantages of being a product creater rather than a affiliate marketer.

    I want to give you a clear indication on how you could follow a product creation online course to sale your informational product. You can either totally be your own boss and produce your own informational product to sell directly to whatever your market may be, or you could be an affiliate marketer and work yourself endlessly to drive traffic to your affiliate link and get a commission.

    I myself followed top internet marketers that advised of producing your own product rather than affiliating. In fact I did not know too much about the full process of affiliate marketing all because at first it sounded just like 9 to 5 work – something I wanted to move away from rather then be in again.

    As a product creator, the task of deriving your product to sell on the internet could be a hard task, depending on how much knowledge you are going to share with your market, you could solve their solution with an ebook, collection of online videos or as simple as an audio file. Anyone of us may have a unique approach to a demanding problem, that you would be shocked to know you could have selling online automated and people willing to affiliate with your product.

    Your aim would be to make that product the best in its field – no matter how good your competitors products are, obviously you would do some research on your competitors products and make yours better in every single way.

    The work involved, does include way more knowledge and you would need to follow a product creation course. The info pertaining to these kinds of courses are unparamounted and they simply walk you through how to go about marketing it – your informational product. They also allow you to tick all the boxes for everything that you should have in your product creation in order for it to be one of the top successors in the informational market.

    As I have said, I started in this internet market by making and selling my own products before I ever started to affiliate with anyone elses product. I dare say my launches have been far from the best, I had to put way more energy into it because I didnt invest in a suitable course on how to go about it – because they were so over priced. Now if I found a product creation course that walked me through everything I had to do step by step I would not think for a second to know – purchase it!

    Well what do you know? There is just that – a step by step walkthrough information course on how to be a product creator selling your own solutions to probelms online; to reap the full benefits, go through a process on how to find a niche to produce an informational solution based product, that will sell whilst your asleep.

    The product is called Info Prodigy, made by a collection of top internet marketers that definetly were not born yesterday, the pricing is so cheap its unfathomable.

    I myself did not know that Info Prodigy was drawing ever so close to being released and when I did I had to check out a Info Prodigy review – this review has totally blown my mind away, 'I can't believe its not butter' I mean I cannot believe the price and how extensive it is within itself.

    Info prodigy is going to be the most powerful product creation course you will see on the market for some time. Tim Godfrey, Steve Clayton and Kate Anderson are renowned sellers of helpful informational products; they never mess a beat in the setup of a online informational product course and the modules it should have.

    Hi Vita and Gang!

    You know I have built a successful business using the SEM business plan Steve and Tim pout our a year or so ago. These guys are the genuine real deal and are open to questions, feedback and new ideas.

    I got into Niche BluePrint and commission Blueprint (both 2.0) and have found nuggets in selling star wars figures and a heap of clickbank ebooks and software.

    I have never found many Product owners to be so open and honest.

    Vita your providing a great opportunity to change peoples lives here – well done mate. And from the emails you have been honest and open with questions and feedback too!

    Thanks – my hat is now in the ring!!! COME ON INFO PRODIGY from Vita

    hi Vita Vee,

    Here's my opinion concerning the advantages of being a product creator rather than an affiliate marketer.

    #1-­‐ It builds a “buyers list”, not just a tire-kicker “optin leads” list. This is huge because these people who buy once from you are apt to buy again and again (not just your own products but also other people's products i.e. affiliate offers)

    #2-­‐ If you JV, you will get the best “buyers” from the JV partners' list onto YOURS.

    #3-­‐ You own an "asset" by creating your own info product, not just arbitraging traffic as many affiliates do

    #4-­‐ If it’s a good product, affiliates can promote it and you have ZERO cost (you're leveraging off of OPM, OPT and OPN i.e. other people's money, time & network to promote your product), so there's only upside.

    #5-­‐ Your product can be offered to affiliates in a continual JV fashion.

    #6-­‐ Your own product builds your brand and your legacy.

    #7-­‐ You can offer your product FREE as incentive bonus to buy other people's products/services. You can even offer your product FREE as incentive bonus to buy your own products when you launch new products.

    #8– You can make a heck of a lot more money compared to being merely an affiliate (if the product is good, of course). This not only allows you to make more money but it allows you to spend more on paid advertising to make your campaigns work.

    #9– It can be much less competitive compared to promoting affiliate products where thousands of people could be promoting the same product at the same time compared to probably a handful of competition in the niche you choose for your own product.

    #10– You have control over the marketing funnel (front end sale, back end sale, upsell, downsell, follow up offers, etc.)

    Here's what I think of Info Prodigy:

    After going through CB2.0 myself, I am pretty sure they will overdeliver on this product as well. Steven is great on video and his teaching style is very easy to absorb. and Tim and his pdfs are really well-organized and packed with no fluff, killer content (at least in CB2.0).

    But I'm not sure how Info Prodigy will stack up with Eben's Guru Blueprint which I think is in the same realm. Obviously Info Prodigy is much more affordable in terms of price, but i think a lot of people including myself will have this very same comparison in mind.

    But hey, if you (Vita) say that you haven't been let down after reviewing the actual product, it must be good! cuz I've always benefited from your feedback.

    Thanks for this opportunity to give my two cents and thanks for all you do Vita!

    Cheers,

    Hiro

    Hi Vita,

    There are a number of interesting comments above related to internet marketing, creating your own product, and being an affiliate.

    I could make a number of comments about marketing on the internet, having done it for several years now. But, I will try to stay on one topic and keep is short.

    Over the past 15 or so years, I having tried numerous programs/methods/tools. Over the years I have managed to earn a little profit most months, but have never come close to making a full time job out of it.

    Vita, in your post you mention to stay away from the internet marketing niche. I agree 100%. Those that have been marketing online for some time, have been conditioned to use their internet marketing knowledge to market IM products to other IMer's. We have been conditioned to become affiliate marketers to help sell those IM products to other marketers for IM product creators.

    We have been lead into believing the next big thing is "it" and will help us finally break through to achieve our success. We have jumped from program to program, method to method, tool to tool. Many of us have become what I call Internet Marketing A.D.D.

    For me, NOT marketing IM products has been a hard mind set to break, since I've been doing it so long. I have also become very jaded and cautious about any new launches, and am very, very selective on what I buy, and who I buy from, or affiliates I buy through.

    Vita, for what it's worth, I still consider you one of the good guys, that can be trusted.

    I don't mean to be too negative here, or blame failed success on others, but this has been my IM road.

    Today, you have very little chance of making it online selling IM products unless you come up with something really new and cutting edge. That is why you need to focus your efforts outside of the IM niche.

    The problem for many of us is we would like to create info products on things that we know about, or have a strong interest in. But, you need to go where people are spending money, and build products around those niches.

    For me, it's been difficult to become an "expert" in niches where there are buyers – niches I don't really care about, or have an interest in.

    Perhaps the Info Prodigy product could help me find a niche that works for me, or help me become that "expert" in the niche.

    My parents taught me when I was young, that if you work hard, good things will happen. I do believe that, but internet marketing is the only thing I have worked by butt off at, that has not paid off. Yet, it is in my blood and so I continue on!

    The whole idea of creating your own product is exciting. A chance to get your creative juices flowing and an opportunity to help other people with a great product.

    Creating your own product provides great credibility. Instead of being a follower, you are now a leader in your industry.

    Creating your own product is more profitable. I mean, you don't have to give away a cent for anything you personally sell. And instead of giving away money to get a commission, you can get paid when other folks sell for you.

    Any tools that help you to create your own product is a great way to speed up the whole product creation process and to make it simpler to do.

    I'm very excited at the prospect of being able to share my products with the community.

    Hi Vita
    Maybe I'm being simplistic here, but surely the number one advantage of creating a product, from which all other advantages derive, has to be that you are in control of the product, and its destiny, at all points during its lifecycle.

    On the most basic level, because you own the product, you can then sell it, ask others to sell it, bundle it with others, and/or get royalties or recurring income from it.

    However, there are more important implications in creating products too. House price speculation has come to an end, and stocks seem tarnished after all the recent problems. But creating intellectual property (ie different products )is a form of investment we can all make and share with others. It fosters freedom, whilst being a much more fulfilling activity for the creatively-inclined than the "old" forms of property.

    Last but definitely not least, because we can all control the manufacture of products, it's also within our power to do what we can to make the world a better place as a result of sharing what we know in info products.

    With all this at stake, maybe the question should be, "Why on Earth would anyone *not* want to create a product?"

24. By Sebastian on Aug 8, 2010 | Reply

    You know, there is a change in the industry for a lot of smaller guys. People are starting to wake up and realize that there is a lot more long-term money to be made with list building and product creation.

    Affiliate marketers are noticing how much money the merchants and advertisers are making from them busting their butts – I should know.

    Most people think that info products are difficult to make, but it is actually a very simple business to get into. We've all been writing content and that is the basis of the work.

    Start by making a free ebook and giving it away to your email list. That will give you a lot of experience in delivering value. After that, consider this "what type of information would people pay for?". Go out and find it if you don't know…

    I start my first earning online as an affiliate, and have yet to set a product of my own for sale. Personnaly, I believe that as a product creator, I can build up a brand in a specify niche. Next, I can recruit affiliates
    to promote my product. This will help me to generate constant traffic. I can then move on to the next product. Next, just repeat the cycle again.

    As for the Info Prodigy course, frankly basing on the report, I can't really judge if this course will help me. There are already many product creation courses out there in the market. Why is
    Info Prodigy so special from the rest. Will be good if it can point out a distinct advantage from the rest of the courses.

    What I think about InfoProdigy?

    I think it will be another killer product from Steve and Tim. I have NicheBlueprint 2 and they definitely overdelivered. I like Steve's videos because he can give you the feeling that you are able to do this and become successful. If you only have negative thoughts you won't achieve anything. So for me, this is a big factor when it comes to their training.

    Specifically for InfoProdigy from what I've seen right now from the free report alone I think it will be a great resource if you want to get into creating your own product. I'm very curious about the outsorcing module because I'm not a native english speaking person and so I would have trouble to write a infoproduct on my own that I am proud to sell to other people.

    In the end I know that I bought from Steve and Tim before so they must do something right when it comes to product creation and selling. You can have the best product but if you can't find buyers then you have nothing and just wasted your time.

    I think and hope InfoProdigy will be a great success and I'm looking forward to the launch tomorrow

    There are quite a few benefits of owning your own product over affiliate marketing, heres some that i can come to think of at the top of my head:

    1. If you drive traffic to your own website, you keep a 100% of the profits, which means your return on investment will be greater than that of an affiliate.

    2. If you can aquire just a few really good affiliates, your income will basically be autopilot since they will be giving you all the traffic they pay for, basically free of charge until they make a sale.. this means that it is significantly more low risk.

    3. Also, its a great way to build a list of qualified buyers. Again, free of charge.. Since the affiliates are driving traffic to your product, and if your offer converts, you will actually be building a list of the most targeted visitors you could ever have in your niche (people who are 1; interested in the niche you are in and 2; you already know they bought something in the past)

    Ofcourse this list could be used to sell more of your own stuff later on, or as an affiliate yourself.. again without the risk of paying for the traffic, or spending months on seo.

    4. Since you have full control of your salesfunnel, you can tweak your offer to perform better and better over time. There are really quite a few ways you can take a website and make it more profitable: Get more traffic, Get higher conversion rate, and increase the average earnings per customer buy tweeking your offer/sales price, offering sales and affiliate offers and upsells, for instance.

    basically, as an affiliate you still have some control (you can improve your traffic quality and quantity.. and you do have SOME ways to increase conversions, however conversions are still largely affected by the product owners salesfunnel)

    But as a product owner, you have the opportunity to test so many marketing campaigns as you whish, as you are not limited to offering the same offer every single time.

    Regarding the percieved quality of Info Prodigy: I have no doubt its going to offer KILLER value.. I own both Commission blueprint 2 and Niche Blueprint 2 (both courses by steve and tim) and they are both some of the most laid out and easy to follow systems i've come across. I also had another product i bought from them, i think it was called SEM blueprint or something like that, i actually made my investment of that product back 10 times over within just one week. Basically: steve and tim are some of the most no bs marketers in this industry to date, and i have no doubt about their knowledge as marketers.

    When the common goal of doing internet marketing is to earn a significant income to free oneself from the boring 9-5 day job, anything that will enable a person to achieve such goal is crucial, whether through selling affiliate products or own products.

    But based on what I have been learning from a number of those who are extremely successful now, there was one common thing they all did when they started their journey, affiliate marketing and then they moved on to create their own products. Their revenues skyrocketed when they started selling their own products through various channels.

    What this shows is that, if you are a newbie with relatively small budget, jumping into this product creation bandwagon without the essential online marketing knowledge is just another bad idea. Without proper guidance from the experts like vita vee and many others, the chances to fail in this endeavor are higher than you could imagine.

    Now, based on what I have read above, about info prodigy, I strongly believe that this product is meant for both newbies and seasoned marketers. Whether your goal is to create your own product or sell affiliate products, the most precious things that you will be learning from this training is the proven techniques to generate the income you are aiming for. That's what matters the most.

    But if you are ready for product creation, here are the benefits;

    1) You will have total control over the products you sell, which means, you can create the products exactly the way you want
    2) You will a hoarde of affiliates agressively promoting your products and all that you will have to do is guide and bribe them with hefty commisions
    3) You will have more time to focus on improving and creating more products instead of spending time to market them
    4) You will be able to outsource most of the hard works a product creation requires to the experts by reinvesting your income
    5) Most importantly, your income will be higher than what you can expect from affiliate marketing with minimum efforts, when you know how to take advantage of the outsource methods, which you will learn from info prodigy

    There are many more but these are the basic benefits you will get

29. By Thomas Heideman on Aug 8, 2010 | Reply

    Hi Vita,

    These are my opinions on the benefits of being a product owner vs. an affiliate:
    1. Continuity- if there is a particularly large and profitable market then a longer life cycle exists for a product owner than an affiliate. Just based on what we see in the IM niche, there is a large launch for a product when affiliates can cut each others throats to add a few dozen sales and maybe a few dozen more prospects to their lists but then things fizzle out from that perspective and the real profit opportunity is lost. The affiliate needs to move on to a new launch and begin the process again while the product owner will continue to make money, albeit at a decreased rate for months or even years.

    2. Faster way to build a big list and become a trusted expert- most of the online personalities in any niche got to be big less through their credentials or expertise and more through that "one product" that took off and got them to be well-known and trusted experts. I'm not saying that all "gurus" or "experts" are not really knowlegeable, well-trained, or qualified. Quite the opposite, most of them have a wealth of valuable advice that can truly help people solve problems, improve their lives, etc. It's just that most of them are truly not that different from the average individual or small-time affiliate trying to grunt it out for a few extra bucks. The difference is generally the exposure they got through the products they created that got them a name in their respective market places. Knowing how to tilt the odds in your favor and produce and sell these kinds of products yourself can be more valuable in the long run.
    3. Less competition- no one out there is me, I'm the only me there is. I'm my own brand. I have my own thoughts and feelings, my own ways of relating, my own unique ability to communicate using varying combination of words, punctuation, grammar, style, etc. As an affiliate, most of us have to do a lot of things to help us brand ourselves anyway, we have to differentiate ourselves from the other me-too commission seekers and develop relationships with our audiences the same way that the product creators and owners do we simply don't do it enough. There's too many other affiliate opportunities out there, there's too much competition for us to really make ourselves heard. Fewer people create products because it is more involved and requires a greater level of commitment. Most people get started in IM with the promise of easy money. There's no such thing. Even fast money from selling drugs or gambling isn't easy. And even if you do get money easy, it doesn't make your life better. I know someone who won a good deal of money in the lottery, not multi-millions or anything but a healthy six figures after taxes. This individual is now tapped out of cash, has more debt than ever, is severely overweight, and has a major problem with addiction that will probably kill them if they don't do something about it right away. Long story short, there's no such thing as easy and problem free. IM is a business and businesses are work. Having your own brand, your own product to sell gives leverage and control and reduces competition in that you can set yourself apart from the "easy-money" affiliates.
    So this is my take on why owning your own product can be better than being an affiliate.
    Thanks Vita.

    Hi Vita,
    Thanks for the detailed review, as always

    Being an active and profitable affiliate marketer for a few years, I can honestly say that this is somewhat a ruthless game. As an affiliate, you are in a constant battle against a few powerful elements:

    1. You are in a constant race against other affiliates – you are promoting a product that hundreds of other affiliate are promoting, competing over the same potential customers. You are always going to have a hard time turning a profit because you don't have any uniqueness. You are one of the herd. You are only trying to generate enough targeted traffic and make some sales, and traffic is getting harder to get all the time. to add to that, in most cases you don't have any real value to deliver (unless you develop unique content or something else of value). So, with no uniqueness, you have to make do with a smaller piece of the pie which in many cases means it's hard to make ends meet in the end of the month.

    2. You are in a race against your traffic source – The hand that feeds you is that hand that slaps you around. That's a bizarre relationship . The search engines change all the time, and so are other traffic sources such as Google Adwords. I know from personal experience that it's sometimes greatly frustrating to chase the wind, after you have established yourself with a certain traffic source. All the affiliates who were using Google Adwords and driving thousands of clicks per day and got slapped one day know this. they literally lost all their income in one day.

    3. You are building an income instead of a business. If your traffic source dries up you have to start all over again. I've done this several times…

    4. Being an affiliate is almost like working at "a job". You slave away for the "boss" (the product owner), all your fruits of labor (traffic, leads, sales, future sales, buyers lists) belong to the product owner and you have to get up tomorrow morning and slave away AGAIN to get that traffic that you send to that product owner
    (I'm starting to hate that guy… )

    So, after bashing affiliate marketing so hard let's see what owning a product can do for us

    1. You own a unique, one of a kind product no one has. Everything flows form there. Everyone who wants to purchase the product MUST come to your website. There is no other way to buy the product. Therefore, you actually have no competition.

    2. Instead of combating against hundreds of other affiliates, just recruit them to promoting your product. Having your own product enables you to sit back and make sales without having to do all the hard word of getting traffic. All you need to do is provide a great offer and let your affiliates create the traffic for you, and therefore the leads, sales and most importantly – buyers list. You own these buyers for life! You can that promote other products to them as an affiliate (this time it's EASY because theses are proven BUYERS). Of course, when you launch your next product you have an immediate pool of customers that will buy and affiliates that will promote. That's a powerful position to be in.

    3. Building an asset. You can always turn around and sell your product, or sell partial rights to it. It's true that you can sell an affiliate site as well, but selling a website that sells a unique product is by far more valuable.

    4. Make a lot of money fast. We all heard of the "product launch formula" and it's true. You can generate a huge amount of money from product launches, sums you could only dream of as an affiliate. And who doesn't want to generate a lot of money fast?

    5. Make money for years. Many products last for years. This is common with products about evergreen topics. You can see a lot of products in the Clickbank marketplace that sell for 5 years and more! Now try having an affiliate website that earns a steady income for 5 years (good luck with that!)

    Well, I hope I have given everyone enough reasons to go and create their own products. Let's hope Info Prodigy is as good as it appears to be, and that we can all be on our way to owning our own product!

    Regards

    Ron

    Want to give a quick shout out to Vita Vee, you've done a great job with your video series and in your forum. Definitely helping a lot of marketers succeed!

    As for your question, my point of view is that they are both necessary. I view the affiliate model as an excellent way for IM newbies to learn the steps to succeed, nearly like an internship program in the offline world. Too many come online looking for quick money, looking to strike it rich and make all their dreams come true and as amazing as an internet marketer's life can be, only a certain kind of marketer succeeds online – the internet marketer that knows what he wants, knows how to take action, and knows how to adapt to failure.

    Learning those mistakes as an affiliate enabled me to advance my knowledge without damaging my reputation or my pocketbook. Creating your own product and attaching your name and face to it is a dangerous thing to do if you're not ready. I may be among the minority, but I don't want a thousand product "creators" shoveling their products online just because they bought a course promising them riches and fame. I am a HUGE advocate of quality, not quantity.

    My whole working attitude is this – the internet is where I want to spend the rest of my career working and making money. If I pollute the internet by just throwing together a product and peddling it all over the internet, without any concern for quality and really helping my customers, I'm actively hurting my long-term profits in exchange for quick short-term gains. That is the "instant gratification" mindset that landed my country (USA) in a recession, and the last thing we need to do is extend that mindset onto the Internet.

    I realize I am most likely in the extreme minority, as most marketers online are seemingly consumed by the thought of more money, more money, more money. I've even seen marketers I used to respect advertise "blackhat" techniques and peddle websites that sell regurgitated PLR products that wouldn't even be found in a decent MLM program. It is both sad and disturbing.

    Here's what I do believe about the Internet and marketing – you can get rich and you can do it without adding to the destruction of the Internet – without turning it into a huge pile of spam. Find a niche, learn everything about that niche, and then create a product that really helps those people. Not only will you get rich, people will be happy to give you money, because you gave them exactly what they are looking for…you HELPED them.

    Now here comes the kicker. What's the best way to learn about a niche? What is the easiest way to learn the strengths and weaknesses of your competitors?

    BECOME AN AFFILIATE.

    As an affiliate in a niche (if you are providing valuable, unique content to your readers), you will be actively learning about the people seeking help and you will also learn the in's and out's of your competitors and their products.
    After just a few promotions, you will have a good understanding of your soon-to-be customers and you will know what it is your competitors are missing in their products.

    You then have two options. You can create a product that fixes the weaknesses in your competitors product and use that fix to get people to buy the weak product through you (affiliate) or create your own product, sans weaknesses (product creation) and sell it to a hungry crowd.

    No matter which road you choose, 3 things will always be important.

    1.) Build a list.

    Call it product creation 101. Building a list and providing them with valuable content will give you a glimpse into product creation and building rapport with your soon-to-be customers. As you learn to understand their needs and help them overcome their obstacles, you will begin to build the rough outline of your future product and best of all, it will be already be tested and approved!

    2.) Learn how to write and speak effectively

    I don't care what your excuse is for why you can't write a compelling article or produce a enjoyable video or podcast, it is just that…an excuse. Writing is your method of communication, and more and more often, videos and podcasts are being used as well. Taking a speech class and a writing class accomplishes two things – it helps you conquer your fears and helps make you a better marketer. It's really a win/win situation.

    3.) Never forget who your customers are.

    Too often I see online marketers that have forgotten who their customers are. They refer to them as clicks or hits, conversions or sales, and forget that they're not clicks or conversions, they are living, breathing human beings with real wants and needs just like you. Learn to write or speak like you're sitting across from a person, because although you may only be linked by a maze of wires, there's someone important on the other end reading your words.

    Keep that in mind and I promise you, you will go far. There's more than enough room online for you and I for one welcome the competition, it's part of what makes this job so exhilirating lol! I love going head to head with someone, trying to create a better website, a better product, a better experience for the customer and the best part? The customers win no matter which of our products they choose.

    As for Info Prodigy, I cannot give an accurate review because all I've seen is Vita's review of it. I can tell you that I would already have my wallet out if I was looking for a product creation course, simply because Vita Vee recommended it and I respect his opinion immensely. He is a perfect example of the quality, not quantity mindset I spoke about.

    Good luck with your contest Vita Vee!

    Hi Vita Vee

    Wow! What comments! Most are very informative in their own right to a newbie like myself. So I am not sure really if my comments will add any more, that would make mine unique enough to win this contest.

    So here goes!

    As A total newbie to SEO, IM, affiliate marketing and info product creation, to mentions just a few elements on that steep learning curve to success, it was only when I came across your product, Zero to Profits course that I began to find my way through the information maze.

    All your products that I purchased I have always felt that I got value for money and found that you always over delivered in the customer care/support department, which to a newbie is very important. Also I have purchased other products that you have reccomended and have as yet never been disappointed.

    Vita Vee you seem to pre-empt my needs everytime and this time is no exception, I have a info product I want to create for a long time but had no real idea how to go about it, then you place right in to my lap Info Prodigy. How do you do it! Just the product i need right now.

    OK regarding Affiliate Marketing V Info Product creation

    Speaking from a newbies point of view, affiliate marketing and product creation are two sides of the same coin. They both exsist and feed off each other in perfect symbiosis. Which ever place one starts from, affiliate marketing or product creation, soon or later you will do the other, if opportunity allows, which for me Info Prodigy is that opportunity to get in to the fast track of product creation by authors that you reccommend.

    So Vita Vee I am certainly not as experienced as most of the commentators above mine here, however I would like you to choose me as one of the winning comments because I will derive proportionality the most benefit.

    I believe in today's Internet marketing environment the subject of info product creation cannot be underestimated. Having own product is even important for developing affiliate business. The key is to build a list in any given niche. Placing "subscribe to my blog box" is not going to produce subscribers. Much more effective would be to have some high quality unique product to offer in exchange for e-mail address. Own product is also the key to developing JV relations. I never heard somebody with affiliate offer to be able to offer his "offer" to other people's lists. So I am 100% sure product creation is something every serious Internet marketing businessman should be thinking about.

    Hi Vita,

    There's already many excellent comments so I won't repeat what has already been said.

    I'm sure you have a twinkle in your eye regarding the irony of running a contest as an affiliate, asking contestants to comment "concerning the advantages of being a product creator rather than an affiliate marketer." I enjoy your sense of humor and your creativity in coming up with this contest.

    As you demonstrate in your business, it's not necessary to choose between one or the other. Thus, my comment is really "concerning the advantages of being a product creator" as well as an affiliate marketer.

    What you learn as an affiliate will make you a better product creator, particularly in relation to the support material you create to support your affiliates. You'll also develop a better understanding of the marketplace and the marketing process. These are essential to succeeding as a product creator.

    What you learn as a product creator will make you a better affiliate marketer, because you'll have a better understanding of all the elements that go into a quality product and you'll receive direct feedback from customers regarding questions, difficulties and shortcomings. This will enable you to better assess products that you choose to promote as an affiliate.

    As for the quality of Info Prodigy, anyone who knows Tim and Steve's other products knows they really do over deliver. And their track record is proof enough that they have mastered the Info marketing business. This is an opportunity to learn from masters.

    And anyone who knows you knows you only promote quality products that do all they claim.

    Anyone who doesn't know you simply has to read a few of these comments to see the quality of subscribers you attract. I sure wouldn't want to be the one choosing the three winners. Good luck!

    Cheers,
    Rich

    Hey Vita,
    Info Prodigy to me is probably going to be a revolutionary product in its niche (product creation). The reason why is because it is made by Steve Clayton and Tim Godfrey. These guys are the best at what they do, and they are the ONLY internet marketing Gurus which genuinely want to help people and give REAL, TRUTHFUL information on how to make it big using the tactics that they used themselves. They over-deliver on EVERY one of their products, and honestly I believe that they are the best thing that happened to internet marketing newbies to date. Given this fact, Info Prodigy to me is a no-brainer. Obviously it's going to pack a punch in a very big way, and I know this because I have bought the Niche Blueprint 2.0 (through Vita's affiliate website ) and this course has taught me everything I know about internet marketing, SEO, and eCommerce. I have even started a sole proprietorship (because of Niche Blueprint), and am looking forward to making a very good living being a small business owner through the internet. On top of that, because I bought the Niche Blueprint 2.0 through Vita Vee, I had the privilege of receiving the Commission Blueprint course, as well as Search Engine Marketing course created by Steve Clayton and Tim Godfrey. These courses are AMAZING! They are full of softwares, resources, tutorials, etc. These courses, like the Niche Blueprint, over-delivered in a big way, and honestly, you only need one of them to know your fair share of internet marketing and to make it big. So, it's from my first-hand experience from the products of these generous, genius marketers that I fully and blindly know well that Info Prodigy is going to rock the internet marketing world. Every single one of these guys' products have been revolutionary, and so will this one. Honestly, if I simply hear of a product launch by Steve and Tim, I automatically will buy it, without even knowing what the product is about because I have so much trust and faith in these guys. I completely believe that they are genuine, good guys, trying their hardest to help the little guy! So my interest in Info Prodigy stems directly from my experience from other products created by the same people! It is going to be the BEST!!!!!!!!!

    Vita,

    I remember back a dozen or so years ago when I worked in construction. I finished every single day with a smile on my face as I had this sense of accomplishment and satisfaction from "seeing" the physical manifestation of my hard work. I truly loved building. It not only meant so much to me, but this work was something that created real value and enjoyment to our customers.

    I think that creating your own information product gives you a unique opportunity to participate on a grand scale in this universe and truly help people, and add value. You get to shape, mold, teach, and contribute to others lives in some way that otherwise wouldn't be yours. That truly is a powerful feeling and one that gives much satisfaction beyond just monetary success.

    As Zig Ziglar said: You can get everything in life you want if you will just help enough other people get what they want.

    Thanks for your help and guidance and this opportunity.

    The absolute best reason, in my estimation, for becoming a product creator is FOCUSED EFFORT.

    Like many others who have commented here, I have struggled to make my affiliate business profitable. When I step back and examine why that is, I believe it's Information Overload and Overwhelm, mostly as a result of my email inbox!

    Going from product affiliate to product vendor means that I can focus like a laser on one thing…and not have to worry about SEO, pay per click, Twitter account status, Facebook messages, how to get traffic on youtube, and whatever the current guru says that I should be doing!

    I am the 'jack of all trades and master of NONE' to this point. LOL

    There is power in single-minded focus. I get that now. It has taken me two years to fully understand. Better late than never, right?

    Different things cause different people to finally turn the corner with their online business. What great timing that InfoProdigy will be released tomorrow.

    "Hello, Mr. Focus. Nice to meet you…"

    Vita,

    What is clear to me is that being a product creator generates more profit directly for you. There is also a great personal sense of achievement in knowing that the results of your creative efforts may pay you a better dividend and create a saleable asset. However, product creation is not for everyone, and some may find it too daunting to even start. For them, promoting as an affiliate may just be the best way to make money online.

    Great reasons to create online information products:
    - high profit due to low material costs
    - uniqueness, ie. they can only buy from you, not from a bookstore or borrow from a library
    - don't have to be expensive to produce
    - can be quick and easy to create, depending on how much you do yourself or outsource
    - enduring in that the content can be updated and re-released very readily on the internet

    From my reading of the Info Prodigy report, it appears that it will provide a detailed "how to" guide to creating your own information products to sell online. Given that it has had input from the likes of the highly successful Tim Godfrey and Time Clayton, I'm sure it will be rich in content, full of relevant information and provide a valuable insight into becoming a successful and profitable online author to those who get it.

    A few years back I created my first info product. Yeah, I celebrated the fact that it was accepted into clickbank. Unfortunately that was all I celebrated. I guess the good news was that it took years for my first refund request. The bad news was that it was my third sale. And it took me 2 hours to figure out how to issue a refund. All in all, it was fail forward fast experience.

    I didn't recover so fast from the world of product creation as that was my first and last experience. I have always found it "EASIER" to promote another product or create a niche website and hope visitors bounce quickly off my page to an affiliate offer or ad network.

    The fact is, ad networks are an easy way out. I know it, you know it. To create one's own product and have the ability to gain a long term customer vs. a couple cents from a click is to reach another level of success.

    There are far to many guru's who tell us how selling our own products is the way to go, but they charge a fortune making us think they are simply creating a product to sell a product to get another number on their list and some more coin in their pocket. I am hopeful after reading about info prodigy that it will be different from what the IM celebrities promote. The price tag is reasonable, the sales letter is transparent, and the TOC looks to cover it all.

    I regularly dream about launching my own product again, but this time I would love to have some guidance and focus. Amazingly, the part I think I missed last time would be covered in chapter 1, "Finding Your Niche".

    What are the advantages of being a product creator than an affiliate?

    Let me tell you a little about myself. I’m currently sitting in a cubicle, working a dead end job for the boss. Every day I come to work, get on the phone and try to get people to buy what the boss is selling. I’ve never even seen his face. Maybe he’s in a shareholders meeting. Maybe he’s implementing a new idea that could make him another million or two. Maybe he’s in Rio De Janeiro, sipping a beer with some tanned beauty by his side. For all I know, he’s in his underwear sitting at his computer, counting his money.

    All I know is I’m sitting with these man-made walls around me, the sound of the ancient fax machine sputtering at me. I’m staring at the phone, trying to build up the mental fortitude needed to call up my next prospect. Every time I make my elusive boss some money, I get a small cut of it.

    Some days are good. Some days I work from 7AM to 2AM just selling. And it feels good. It feels good making that money. But then I realize that all my hard work has no real benefit in the future. Sure, I get some useful skills. Skills needed to continue this existence. But there is no compound interest. If I did this every day for 10 years, I wouldn’t see a massive pay off. Maybe I would become a manager or boss. But I sure as hell wouldn’t be king of the hill.

    Other days…most days are horrible. Dead lines, massive e-mails, bosses breathing down my neck. Just this last month, 3 people have been left the company. There have been a few layoffs over the last year. They thought it wouldn’t happen to them and got lazy. Didn’t meet their quotas, stopped trying as hard and now they’re gone. One of them was my friend and every weekend he tells me about his latest job hunt. He’s not the only one. Lots of people are looking for work in this economy. I slip up and some other guy is looking to take my spot.

    That’s the life of an affiliate. It’s a constant hustle. Maybe I’ve got the #1 stop on Google this month but next month… There’s always somebody right around the corner ready to snatch your lunch away from you. I’m working my ass off for a small cut while most of it goes to the boss.

    A product creator is the boss. After a lot of initial hard work, hopefully he’ll start seeing money come to him. He can get his workers to sell the product while he kicks back and relaxes eating the finest lobster in all the Caribbean. I have a few friends who are now selling their very own info products. They have affiliates working for them. One of my friends is making a few extra hundred dollars a month just through his affiliates. Last I heard, he was backpacking around South America. Another has made absolutely nothing. He’s currently looking at classified ads for a job.

    That’s one reason I’m intrigued by this whole “Info Prodigy” thing. Can they help separate the winners from the losers? Also, I’m curious how it stand out from the competitors. There are a million and one different courses out there telling you how to sell your own information products and I’m curious to see how it differs. I’ve read the copy but I’ve learned over the years that copy tells very little about the actual product.

    So I want to see what this course is all about. Who knows…it may get me out of this cubicle.

    Hi Vita,

    This product looks interesting. I've got several that Tim and Steve have produced before and they are all excellent. They give you the real insider's secrets on IM.

    For me, having your own product is better than affiliate marketing because you get more OPTIONS and you get more CONTROL.

    For example, you're free to set your price at the level YOU want. For example, you can set a high affiliate commission and get more sales, or charge a higher price and make more money per sale.

    Also, you're free to offer more back-end sales immediately or later down the line, and selling your own product builds YOUR list, rather than someone else's.

    Overall, info products allow you to control and steer your sales and income: a nice way to balance out and supplement your affiliate sales!

    Man are my eyes open! I never knew or realized this is how it works. Just think about this. You have a passion or a hobby on any subject and you put all that you know about it into a Informational download form a complete course you know with all the fancy image graphics. Now what you have is, based on your research in that "niche", a product that others are starving for too and you are going to satisfy that hunger.
    But it gets better! A whole lots better. Because you will have new found buddies to help you spread the word around about your Info product. And that will multiply your efforts in getting the word out that you have what that niche is searching for. This is crazy good! Heck just the FREE report I received from the the guys and Lady at Info Prodigy blew me away! I never fully understood this concept until reading it. And all I can say is WOW! This gives me more leverage than I can get with a Seesaw.
    Now I'm salivating to no end to get my hands on the information that I need in this product Info Prodigy. The way I understand it, that with the knowledge you gain from Info Prodigy you can go out find alot starving crowds and have the confidence to go and set up a whole "all you can eat buffet" full of Info products to feed everyone. LOL.

    Man I'm just starving! And Vita it's all your fault and tell your wife you will have a guest over for dinner. LOL

    Hi Vita-

    There are two key points to product creation: becoming an "expert" and control.

    With product creation comes the notion that you become an "expert" in the field. From there, you can leverage that status into additional sales through the trust and credibility you've earned. Jeff Walker talks about the "product echo" that occurs when you generate your own product. I couldn't agree more. This is a building momentum that generates more and more opportunities for extended relationships with your customers. And, YOU OWN THE EXPERIENCE – no one else.

    Which brings us to control…

    As an affiliate marketer, you are sitting on the sidelines waiting for others to create products that you can promote. You trade your hard-earned list for (generally) a one-time shot of the profits. But once that shot is done, it's over. It's kinda like heroin. Feels great in the moment, but the hangover is awful. And the only way to generate that feeling again is to shoot up…find another product, promote it and move onto the next one. It's an awful, continuous cycle of extremely hard work, but has no residual effect for your own business. You don't control the process, marketing, information or the user experience so it is a never-ending cycle. I'm often reminded of a mouse on the wheel…

    Ultimately, generating your own product is the only stable way to build and grow your business.

45. By Anton Cipri on Aug 9, 2010 | Reply

    By becoming the author of your own info product, you also become the authority of that product. There is a huge intangible power that comes with becoming an authority on any subject. Especially when you are selling a product that you know inside and out, it comes through in the copy that you write. It also comes through in any other way that you communicate with your audience.

    Trust is the basis of all business transactions. Think about it, if you don't trust someone, will you buy anything from him/her? While I don't know you, would be willing to bet that your answer to that questions is a resounding NO!

    The reason for my interest in Info Prodigy is two-fold. First and foremost I am interested in it because Vita Vee says that it's a very good product. I put much weight on this base on the TRUST that Vita has instilled in my over the years that I have been a student of his. If I didn't have this level of trust, I wouldn't have given Info Prodigy a second look.

    The second reason that I am interested in InFo Prodigy is because there is content there that I know that I can benefit from. I think that some info marketers forget the fact that some of us still have day jobs or simply do internet marketing as a side effort for a few extra bucks. When they make this assumption, many times they will leave out those little steps that they think EVERYONE already knows. Well, guess what! I like detail. Don't assume that I know how to do each step, I might not. This leads to frustration and ultimately failure.

    If Info Prodigy delivers what what is promised in the copy, I will be a very happy customer. I love happy customers in my business! They refer others. My "day job" is all about referring others. I built a whole business on this concept and it's working wonderfully.

    Hi Vita Vee,

    Here are my opinion concerning the advantages
    of being a product creator rather than an affiliate marketer:

    1. As the Product Creator, affiliates will bring traffic to my sales page and bring in sales on autopilot. This is way better and affiliate will do the marketing.

    2. I don't have to do the promotion.

    3. Affiliates build a buyer list.

    4. Affiliates can multiply my traffic and earnings.

    5. Use the Saved time to work on a new product and continue it again.

    I think Info Prodigy product will
    a) help me to focus on creating new products.
    b) build partnership with JV to lauch products.
    c) build a strong buyer's list.
    d) bring in sales to my product.

    Now waiting for Info Prodigy product to launch. This product will certainly help me succeed.

    Thanks.

    Vita,

    Its a matter of getting back to basics. Knowledge is Power and Information is King. The more information you own or control the more power you wield,(relatively speaking of course).

    Modern history shows us how simple folks for humble backgrounds who have either originated special knowledge or have found/gained access to the some information in the form of an article, a picture(JKF being shot), an interview, a song (Micheal Jackson once owned the rights to the Beetles music), a book (Harry Potter) and today a video on youtube or an ebook, then they have the ability to demand a price/reward for this information depending on its popularity.

    This is the cornerstone of journalism(at least the popularity part of it for those who are more idealistic). The more popular or the higher the demand for this information the more you can demand in the form of compensation.

    It's that simple. Become the creator of the information or product and others will fight to represent you (affiliates/publishers/agents)

    Never before in history of this planet has anyone had the opportunity to access millions so readily via the internet. Info Prodigy is the tool that offering the common man/woman this power and opportunity by becoming a product creator.

    One last thought, the reviewer of Info Prodigy, Vita Vee is a scholar and gentleman. He delivers more than he promises and promotes only the best quality material in the internet space. I would trust his recommendation over the renowned gurus of IM any day.

    Buy Info Prodigy through Vita's Affiliate Link-The bonuses are fantastic too!

    All I can say is WOW!

    I have won things before, but this could well be the best…
    Not just the quality from such known IM legends, but the potential future earnings.

    The (extremely generous) Bonus Package from V2 is just icing on the cake.

    No spots in the winners circle for my post? I had the longest (literally) and by far most informative post made here by far. I spent a whole night editing and organizing to make sure my post would win by a long shot. I followed the instructions to a "t" to make sure my post stood out from the rest. I guess you win some and you lose some. :/

    I lost today and I guess so did you. Time to do some unsubscribing.

    Best of luck in the future.

    @Ken LOL I'm glad that you appreciate this

    @CK Sorry to see that you unsubscribed from my list just because I didn't select you as a winner. It conforts me in my choice though, your post was long and detailed but it doesn't mean it was better than the 3 I have selected. Yours was looking too much like a sales letter and this is NOT what I asked for the contest so NO you didn't follow the instructions to a "t"

    When you say:

    "I lost today and I guess so did you. Time to do some unsubscribing."

    You're wrong – I don't feel like I lost anything. I am very happy that I was able to give 3 licenses to 3 great people. I wish I could have given one to ALL the posters but hey at $297 per license it would really cost a lot LOL

    Concerning your latest sentence:

    "Best of luck in the future."

    I don't believe in luck – Good continuation to you.

    Hey Vita,

    A sales letter? I guess your partially correct in the fact I did probably help you gain sales. To say I didn't follow your instructions to a "t" is complete and utter bullshit.

    You asked for us to;

    1) Give advantages of being a product creator
    -and-
    2) Write what you think of Info Prodigy

    Did I not do that very clearly? I even used real-life examples!

    The fact here is that you picked your people solely based on how much they kissed your ass. I did no ass-kissing in my review which is probably why mine didn't stand out to you.

    Also, I should add I'm very happy 3 people got a free license. I would have let you give mine to someone else anyways as I got a free license already. The fact is, you picked them not based on your requirements, but your feelings.

    Take "Ken". What did he post? Crap. Why did he win? Because he says he names his cats "Vita" and "Vee".

    "Mysterious Marketer" – Overall good post with light ass-kissing in the beginning and end. I thought his post would come in 2nd under mine. Why? Mine was more informative, provided more reasons, provided more examples, and provided more clear answers to the two questions you asked. You picked his why? I would assume the ass-kissing.

    "Steve C" – Did he even answer your questions? He just played the "feel sorry for me" card about how he launched a product and failed miserably. So why did he win? you wanted to look like the good guy giving the guy in the trenches a way out.

    Why did I want to win? To say, "Hey, I won". Like I said, I would've enjoyed the first bonus in your bonuses but the Info Prodigy course you would have given me I would have probably told you to give to Steve C.

    Anyways, thats my reasoning. My unsubscibing was for your creating rules and then not sticking to them. Also, I originally liked you for your 0 to Profits course but after buying IM Niche Formula I realized you just rehashed his course!

    Good continuation to you as well, whatever thats supposed to mean.

    Hi CK,

    Despite your strong language and the use of terms I don't particularly appreciate I have approved your comment to give you some more details about my selection.

    But before that let me close the paranthesis on my 0 to profits course (I don't know why you talked about this as this has nothing to do with Info Prodigy LOL – probably because you're not talking with your reason but rather because you're angry). A rehash you say? LOL Look at this blog it was created more than 1 year before the release of IM Niche Formula and if you look at my oldest posts you can see that I was using the same blueprint as the one described in 0 to profits. More than 1 year before the release of IMNF so how could this be a rehash? – End of paranthesis.

    Now about my selection.

    Ken's comment was brillant. It was short but it summarized exactly the advantages of being a product vendor. Read his part about "keyword phrases" that suddenly gets million of pages for "stupid" terms. This is to the point.

    The Mysterious Marketer mentioned 13 good reasons 3 days before your own comment. You mentioned 12 good reasons which were for most already mentioned by him…. And again you did it 3 days later. (Was your comment a **rehash** of his?)

    SteveC's comment was actually very good because he explained with his own experience that to get the benefits of being a product vendor it gets more than just creating a product and making it available for sale.

    Ok now if you don't agree with my selection this is your rights. And I'm sure that ALL the posters would have made a different selection than mine or than yours.

    But this is not a reason to insult those people who won instead of you.

    Good Continuation
    Vita Vee

    PS: Let's stop talking about this as I simply don't have the time and CONGRATZ to the winners! I will send you your licenses today.
