Terry Dean – Internet Lifestyle System

Within six months I had a consistent monthly income online.

From there I expanded into additional products, services, speaking at conferences, doing product launches, and running membership sites.

At one of these events, I demonstrated the power of online marketing by generating $96,250 in revenue from ONE email in front of a live audience.

I had one of the very first membership sites in the Internet marketing space.  The customers included a Whos-Who of many of the Internet marketing experts you see online today.

And over the years, I’ve helped thousands of budding Internet entrepreneurs create the own Internet Lifestyles along with multi-millions of dollars in revenue.

Everything changed the day I discovered the Internet and just what was possible online.

I stumbled into this business after failing at everything else in my life.

I’ve now lived the Internet Lifestyle for 2 decades…and even took complete retirement from all online projects for 18 months in 2004 and 2005.

Income kept coming in during that break.  And my passion for this lifestyle led me to focus on helping others do exactly what I’ve done for all these years.  I’ll tell more about a few of these clients later on.

But this isn’t about me.  It’s about you…and helping you put your own Internet Lifestyle system in place so you can enjoy your freedom, your family, and even your retirement.

Maybe you’ve suffered through the same kind of financial problems as I have.  Or perhaps you’ve followed a much better path, and you have a comfortable job.

But as you know, you’re never truly free as long as you have to punch a time clock.

A lot of people work their whole lives looking forward toward the day they can ‘retire.’

That’s when finally own their time.

No longer will you have to suffer that dreaded daily commute.  No longer will you come home so tired that you end up vegetating in front of the TV before falling off to sleep to do it all again the next day.

I’ve heard people refer to retirement as when every day feels like a Saturday.

But the reality is it takes at least one million…and more likely two to three million…in the US to retire comfortably today.  And that number is multiplying yearly with inflation.

That’s almost an insane amount for the average person to save, especially when respected investing experts such as John Bogle are telling us to prepare for lower stock returns for at least the next 10 years.

Pensions have all but disappeared.

And the Social Security trust fund is predicted to run out in 2034.  Social Security Disability is already struggling today!

According to the US Census Bureau, “80% of Americans age 30 to 54 believe they will NOT have enough money for retirement.”

And sadly they’re probably right.

The majority will continue at the grindstone for years past their prime…till eventually health problems force them into a retirement they’re not financially prepared for.

The world has transformed over the past few decades.

And it’s left the majority struggling to catch up.

It’s NOT your fault.

But If you’re going to experience freedom while you can still enjoy it, you have to take control.

You could start a brick-and-mortar business.  But starting up a business with a physical location is EXPENSIVE and risky.  Not to mention what a hassle it is to deal with employees today….all the red tape, personal attitudes you have to deal with, and constantly growing government bureaucracy.

That leaves the Internet.

In just a few minutes, I’m going to show you the quickest and easiest way to create passive income streams you can be proud of, free you from your job, and fuel your Internet Lifestyle for decades to come.

You could go the Internet start-up route.  That means coming up with a brilliant idea, finding partners, and then literally begging for capital at the same time you’re putting together a team, software, and everything else it takes to run a large business.

According to both Fortune and Forbes magazines, 9 out of 10 start-ups fail, the majority within 120 days!

The biggest issues they run into are a lack of financial backing, offering a product that no one wants, and in-fighting among the partners.

When your goal is to create a big business like this, your destiny is intertwined with a dozen or more other people.  All it takes in one weak link for the chain to break.

And even if you succeed with that route, many start-up CEOs are quickly burned out, because as they often confess, it feels like they’re constantly running one marathon after another.

Every waking moment is invested in their idea, and it only takes one slip-up from anyone on the team to doom the entire project.

I personally couldn’t handle that kind of stress!

Another option is simply promoting affiliate products.  There are thousands of companies who will pay you a commission for every product sold from your referrals.  Or you could even join Cost-Per-Action programs where they pay you for each lead you generate…even before a sale is made.

And that’s a fine business model.  I personally earn good money from a dozen of more affiliate programs every year.  Everyone should integrate multiple streams of income in their online approach, but in my system all these additional checks are ‘extra spending money’ on top of your regular passive income.

The big negative with promoting affiliate programs as your primary business model is you need to constantly attract new leads, advertise, and grow your list.

The model I recommend will allow you to tap into OTHER People’s lists, traffic, leads, and customers.  Let them do the heavy lifting for you!

When you just promote affiliate products, you’re the one sending leads and customers to others.  You’re constantly hustling to generate more traffic.   And you only receive a PORTION of the profits.

You could start a blog.  Again nothing wrong with that.  I use a blog in my system, but it’s tough to cut through all the noise with a blog today.

In 2013, there were already a reported 152 million blogs on the Internet with a new blog being created every half second.  And that hasn’t slowed down in the past few years.

A blog can be a way to attract visitors to other offers.   I’ll show you how to make a blog extremely profitable…even with just a small amount of traffic.  But a blog isn’t required in my system…

You could create a service based business such as consulting, web design, or Adwords management.  These are excellent business models and I’ve personally worked with clients in all of these fields.

But you’ll primarily be trading hours for dollars.  As dentists have often said, “If you’re not drilling, you’re not billing.”

Coaching is another of my multiple income streams.  So I’d be glad to recommend it to you.  BUT a big secret in any service profession is attracting the right clients.   It’s easy to fall into a feast and famine situation.  You have too much work at times while other times it seems you fell off the face of the map and you’re struggling to keep the lights on.

Adding passive income streams along with your service is the quickest and easiest way to even out those highs and lows.  You’ll have a consistent base monthly income coming in, and those systems continually attract the premium clients you love working with.

This leads us to my favorite online income model…passive income streams from digital information products.

You’ve probably seen those big product launches where dozens of promoters fill your email box with hyped up messages about the next hottest thing since sliced bread.

There is a lot of excitement behind the product launch model, but there is a TON of work going on behind the scenes.

Usually these products and bonus packages are huge.  They can take 6 months or more of your life to create…without having a clue of just how successful they will be.

While you’re spending all that time on the product, you also have to schedule the launch itself months in advance.

Become a beggar who desperately pleads everyone with an email list to promote for you.

By the end of the event, you’ll owe reciprocal mailings to every Tom, Dick, and Harry…and they’ll definitely call on you to mail for their “next big thing” whether you’re comfortable with it or not.

You also better tell your merchant account and Paypal upfront about the launch, or you can quickly find your accounts canceled as they get nervous when you start processing a bunch of orders after having zero volume for months.  They’re afraid you’ll take the money and run…and they’ll get left holding the bag when a load of refunds come pouring in.

If it’s your first time, at best they’re going to put a reserve on a portion of your money which you won’t see for up to 6 months.

You’ll pay 50% commissions to your partners…plus 10% to 20% to your JV broker…along with cash and prizes for those who win your launch contest.

On launch day, you better hope and pray your website converts…or all that work, all those relationships, and all those promises you made are out of luck.

If everything performs as planned, you could pocket a substantial sum.  Of course, now you’re back to ground zero and you owe a lot of mailings to others.  Time to start planning your next launch.

I’ve done this long enough to know the big launch model is NOT right for me.

I like steady, consistent passive income.  And I’m all about a low stress existence.

You choose your market.  You can use a few little tricks to virtually guarantee buyers are hungry for what you offer.  Once you see a ‘green’ light, you create the product quickly.  Get in the marketplace.   Make some money.    Watch your monthly income grow consistently each-and-every month.

You don’t need a home run every time you’re at bat.  Instead you can win the game by consistently getting base hits.

Create a product this weekend.  Start collecting money from buyers next week.  Get it to $1,000 or more per month.  Put another product together quickly.

Over the next 12 months, you could create multiple passive streams of income like this.

Each of these is like owning another little oil well that just keeps pumping for you 24-7.

You don’t bet the farm on any one project.

For example, one time I purchased a license to someone else’s ebook.  It wasn’t even MY information.  Over the weekend I added an additional special report to go with it.  That stupid little project returned over $5,000 a month for YEARS all by itself.

Another time I did an audio interview with an expert and paid a transcriber $60 to create a written version of the product to go with it.  The paint-by-numbers sales letter was written in about 2 and a half hours.  Within the next week, the product earned $11,124 and continued to produce several thousand per month.

All told, that project required less than 8 hours of my time total for finding the expert, doing the interview, putting together the website, and launching the offer.

I could share story after story of different projects like this.

Often I’ll invest more time than this in a project, but I’ve found over the years that my time investment has little to do with the long-term income potential of the project.

It’s all about following a proven system you can use over and over again to create your own…
