Want to Create and Sell Profitable Digital Products and Services?

If you’ve been following the media not marketing approach, then you’ve used appropriate forms of digital media to develop a legitimate relationship with an audience that knows, likes, and trusts you.

Here’s another characteristic of such an audience: They want to buy from you, assuming you can deliver them a product or service that solves their problems and satisfies their needs.

At that point, it’s time to give them just that. And what could be better than something that is digitally created, sold, fulfilled, and supported completely online?

If this is the path you choose, we want to make sure you do it right. That means the end result is profitable, and you’ve developed a process that you can simply rinse and repeat moving forward.

In other words, we want to show you smarter ways to create and sell digital goods and services, based on both our successes and misfires. Further, we want to show you how to turn your suite of goods and services into a successful, sustainable digital business.

This is the mission of Digital Commerce Institute — the inevitable next step in the evolution of Rainmaker Digital. After all, we’re a bootstrapped digital commerce pure-play with 8 figures in annual revenue, and we’ve created and sold tens of millions of dollars in digital products and services.

If this new comprehensive training initiative sounds like something you’re interested in, head over to digitalcommerce.com.

Free Webinar: Build a Business Around Paid Courses and Membership Sites

The goal of running an online business built around digital products and services is as old as the Internet itself.

And there are no secrets or shortcuts.

There are:

Tried-and-true models for developing an online business the smart way
Technology solutions that simplify strategy implementation and make execution more efficient and effective

In our fourth Rainmaker Platform webinar, Brian Clark and I are going to discuss a couple of these tried-and-true models: courses and membership sites. These are models that Rainmaker Digital has extensive experience not just discussing and teaching, but actually doing (over and over).

Our previous webinar laid out the big picture strategy behind creating a compelling logged-in experience on your website. This upcoming webinar will take that lesson further by describing how you actually turn that audience experience into revenue — into a business.

We’ll also walk you through a couple of live demonstrations of websites that are doing this right now using the Rainmaker Platform.

Join us Thursday, October 22, 2015 at 3:30 p.m. Eastern Time for free advice that can help you turn the dream of running an online business into a goal you’re ready to achieve.

By the way, if you are interested in the topic but can’t attend the live event, you should still register.

A replay video will be available to everyone who registers, and we’ll send you an email once it’s ready.

How to Immediately Become a More Productive (and Better) Writer

You want to become a better writer.

I know this because you’re reading Copyblogger.

I also know that you fear becoming a better writer.

This I know because you must change to become better and to fear change is to be human.

But what if I told you that you only need to change one thing — one small thing — to achieve your goal of becoming a better writer?

Would you believe me?

You should. It’s not just theory; it’s science.
