If you are interested, you can set up an online business and make money doing it. All it takes is a little bit of guidance and some hard work. But once it is set up, you can really do well. One of my favorite ways is to sell “one off products.” I use the information in my head about a topic. I’m very familiar with, host a webinar, or a teleseminar, record it, and then sell it over and over again.

When promoting a one off product, you will want to follow these six easy steps.

Your first step is to pick a familiar subject. It should be something you can talk about for at least one hour, and I am convinced that everyone has a topic like that, whether it is pie making, photography, or automobile repair. No matter the topic, keep it simple because your goal is to quickly put out some good, helpful content that will generate cash flow.

Your second step is to write an outline for your presentation. There is a simple way to do this. On a sheet of paper, write your subject in the middle. Then brainstorm some subtopics. Under each of your subtopics, try to come up with two good details. Shoot for eight to ten subtopics with two details for each one. If you are able to do this, you will have a sixty-minute presentation. Pretty easy, right?!

Your third step is to connect with a free teleseminar service. You can find on to use for free and will allow you to host up to 250 people at one time. When I first started my online business, I could only host 100, so this is a great improvement. Remember to record your seminar an download it at the end.

Your next step is to tell people about your teleseminar. But who exactly do you invite? Your website, blogs, and email lists are a great place to start. I would just go nuts with this stuff and tell everybody I know that I am having this wonderful teleseminar.

Your next step is to sell seats to your seminar. My friend Jim Bob Howard showed me this great site called Event Bright. It is also free to use. How it works is your customers pay Event Bright, and then the site pays you. The clincher is you do not pay for their service until people pay you by buying seats. This frees you from a lot of administrative headache.

The sixth step is to make a recording of your seminar. If you do this, you will be able to use your recording over and over again. For example, you can market the recording as an audio CD or have it transcribed for an ebook. You can even combine some of your “one off products” and make them into a home study course. The options are infinite.
