How to Achieve Multiple Income Streams Online

Creating multiple income streams online is like finding the holy grail. Every internet marketer wants to make it happen, and the fact it, it is very possible to accomplish. This post outlines one example of how you could set about to achieve this end.

One of the most popular ways to generate multiple income streams online is by becoming an affiliate marketer. As an affiliate marketer, you are basically the marketing and selling arm for the products or services of another company. In this respect, you can align yourself with any number of entities, ranging from a web hosting provider, an email autoresponder service or a travel company looking to market its memberships.

Ok, let's say first off that you decide to join a network marketing company, selling their high ticket opportunity “XYZ.” Every time you recruit someone into this company, you receive a commission - your first income stream. Let's call this high ticket program your primary opportunity. As you begin marketing for this primary opportunity, you'll create a website/capture page that will allow you to collect the contact information of your prospects. By giving you their contact information, these prospects are essentially opting in to you “list.” It will be through the growing of this “list” of prospects that you will generate your other streams of income.

Once you start building this list, you can market smaller ticket items to them before they join your big ticket program. To clarify, let's assume that most of your prospects who opt-in to your list are not going to purchase from you right away. They'll need at least 4-5 business exposures before they decide to join your primary opportunity. This is completely normal. During this faze, most marketers only feed their prospects information regarding their primary opportunity and nothing else. But it doesn't have to be this way. Rather, you can market smaller ticket items to these prospects – items that might act as precursors to your high ticket opportunity. For example, if your primary opportunity is a $1500 online travel business opportunity, maybe your small ticket opportunity can consist of a $200 internet marketing boot camp, for which you are an affiliate, which similarly will pay you a commission every time someone from your list joins. This can act as your 2nd stream of income.

Then, once your prospect finally joins your primary opportunity, you can back end market a product that he or she would need anyway, like an email autoresponder. If you are an affiliate with an autoresponder service like Aweber, you can have your new team members sign up for the same service. That way, not only will they get a useful tool for their business, but you will profit from it as well. Once you have multiple income streams online, then you can teach your teammates how to build the same. Your team will be the healthier for it.

If further down the road, you want to augment your business with even more income streams, then I would suggest you look to other avenues like monetizing your blog, or product affiliate opportunities like those found on sites like Clickbank. Obviously, we could speak volumes about these options as well, but are probably best saved for another article posting. Remember, attaining multiples income streams online is very possible. Although it will require a lot of preparation and consistent effort to set up, it will be well worth your time. Good luck!
