How to Make Money Without Creating Any Products

I am sure that you have heard that the best way to do business online is by creating different products, such as e-books, teleseminars, membership web sites, audio recordings and others and selling them. If you have created different products, you are now able to profit with many different income streams.

But what should you do if you do not have any products for sale and do not have the time to create them? How can you create multiple streams of income for your business if you have not created any products?

Even if you have not created any products, you can still use and make money with a multiple streams of income business model. If you don’t have any of your own products to sell, you can sell products that other people have created and make money with them. Many people who have created products use affiliate programs to pay commissions to everyone who sells their products.

Let me give you an example. Let’s say Jane created an e-book called “25 Business Tips For Your Business” that she sells for $50 on her web site. Jane also has an affiliate program that pays 50% commissions. If you register for this affiliate program, get your affiliate link for the “25 Business Tips For Your Business” e-book and post the link on your web site, you are going to earn commissions. Every time someone buys the e-book by clicking on the affiliate link on your web site, you are going to earn 50% of $50, which is $25. Not bad for someone who didn’t write the e-book!

Of course, you need to remember that you won’t be able to earn a lot of commissions unless you promote all of those affiliate products. Just like you would need to promote your own e-books, you will need to promote the e-books you are selling through the affiliate programs, if you want to earn money.

Ask yourself – what are the best affiliate products for you to promote? Those are the products that your current target market and web site visitors are already interested in. That way, you will not need to reach a whole new market to promote the affiliate products. Just use your newsletter, blog and web site to promote those products. When your target market reads your newsletter or visits your web site, they see information about those products. Since the products are targeted to them, they are much more likely to learn more about those products and purchase them.

Create multiple streams of income for your business using affiliate programs! The best part about affiliate programs is that you do not need to create any of the products you are selling. By just signing up for an affiliate program, you can create 10, 20 or even 30 income streams in a few minutes. All the products are already available and you just need to market and sell them.
