Modules


The IM Learning Center is organized into learning modules.  Inside the membership you’ll find 7 modules that comprise the core information you need to be successful and several other modules with more advanced marketing techniques and business ideas.

The information listed below is JUST the beginning!

Module 1 The Basics Before The Basics

In this module we’ll be covering the basics – before the basics.

Work On the Internet – Is It For You?
Realism – The Hardest Thing To Learn
What You Have To Do First
Goal Setting With a Look To The Future

Make no mistake – this is a business, and when treated as such, you will be successful. Learn the basics before you try to move forward.

Module 2

This module is designed around helping you to find the particular business model you want to pursue. Finding the niche for that business model comes a bit later. You can approach your business from the perspective of knowing your niche and then choosing your model or from knowing your model and then finding a niche.

It works from either direction. Module 2 addresses the different business models and Module 3 address Niche Research. You might find Niche Research more interesting but in order to have a successful business you’ll have to do both modules :)

Module 3 Research

Research. For some people this is the most fun part of the whole process. For others it’s a tedious chore that they must do in order to make the best guess at what will be profitable.

But it doesn’t really matter in which camp you fall – if you skip this step your chances of a successful venture are drastically reduced. There is Niche Research and competitive market research. Some marketers address one without the other – a fatal mistake.

Let’s learn how to do both and the difference between them.

Module 5 Product Creation

To make money online you need something to sell. That something is yours, someone elses (affiliate marketing) or you are generating leads for others (Cost Per Lead). There are no other ways to make money – you must have something of value.

In this Module you’ll learn different ways of creating your own product including the role of the sales letter. For many, this is the fun part and for others it is a struggle. You’ll learn ways to get your product finished creating it completely or with very little effort on your part.
