Make a big leap

February 29, 2012 in About ACEInspire, Blog, Featured, Headline, Make money online


There is only one February 29th every 4 years. What are you going to do to make today count? Many of us want to make more money, and we’re going to give you a sneak peek into one concept you could adopt today that will help you boost your income, not just for the short term but for the future too:

We are in the midst of a time of change. Traditional manufacturing jobs are in decline, jobs in service industries are harder to find. However there are thousands of new ways to earn. Many of these new ideas for earning can be done part-time, in your spare hours, alongside raising a family or another job. You need to be open to opportunities and ready to learn and persist. If this sounds like something that you would love to do, and you are ready to commit time and effort, read on. There is hard work ahead of you, but the benefits are immense.

Life change starts here

We have three essential concepts that are key to making money. Get these ideas right and you will have taken the first step to changing the way you earn and taking the limits of just how much you can bring in:

Concept 1: Multiple Streams of Income

The first concept that will change the way you think about earning is multiple streams of income. Does the idea that your entire life is dependent on one source of income make you feel uncomfortable? You can end up in dire straits through no fault of your own. Gone are the days when jobs were for life and large establishments like Woolworths could never go down… but imagine this alternative scenario:

Sharon worked on the till at Woolies twenty hours a week, but she also has a number of other incomes. She writes a parenting blog that earns her £300 a month in advertising. She does some freelance writing for £150 per month. Sharon’s also just launched an eBook from a blog in a niche area which earns £75 a month and she’s in the process of launching an eCourse. Woolies go and what does Sharon do? She cuts back and lives off her other incomes. She spends her free time creating that eCourse which grows to earn her around £300 a month and she invested her redundancy money in another business opportunity which she hopes will be a big success.

No matter which of Sharon’s incomes disappear she has others on which to rely, and it is highly unlikely that all her incomes will dry up at the same time. This is the theory behind multiple streams of income.

What does this mean for you?

It means you do not need one big idea or lots of investment to cease being reliant on an employer. If you are a business owner it takes a lot of the risk out of being an entrepreneur as, instead of relying on one idea or one market you have a number of enterprises. You can build up an online income incrementally while still working or alongside your other commitments. This is exactly what we have done: we have built our incomes up gradually to a point where our ‘work’ is flexible and our incomes are multiple.

What do you think of this concept?

If you like this, and want to learn about the two other essential concepts for earning, we share them in the Help! I want to start earning course.  This course is available at half the usual price for this week only.

A personal message from Antonia

September 26, 2011 in ACE Online Business, Headline, Make money online


Would you like your business to generate more money? Of course you would!

You work hard and it would be great to see better returns on the time you’re investing in your business right now.

But it can seem easier to think you’d like more income from your business than to actually achieve it.

If you are in the same situation that I was a few years back, you might be offering a great service, and working hard, but finding that the amount you earn never increased. I ran a PR business which was successful, but there was one fundamental flaw in what I was doing that meant I would never earn more. I’d hit the ceiling.

It took me a while, and input from a number of different people to work out what the flaw in my business was – but since then I haven’t looked back. I now have 13 books in print, and another couple coming out in the next year. I have helped hundreds if not thousands of women, mums and business owners to improve their own businesses. And I have a reliable and growing income coming from my business: I’ve broken through the ceiling on my earnings even though I’m still working part time hours.

How have I done it? I’m going to tell you how in a webinar next week. Click here to join Erica Douglas and myself and find out more.

 

Best wishes

Antonia Chitty

 

PS We also have an announcement to make this Tuesday: watch the blog on the 27th to find out more.

How to Sell More as an Affiliate

June 17, 2011 in Featured, Make money online, Online Marketing, Social Media


You have a blog with lots of followers and a vibrant email list that loves your content, yet when you try and do a nicely targeted affiliate promotion you fail to sell a thing. Sound familiar? Read on to find out why..

As consumers we’re actually pretty complex creatures. Contrary to the idea that we’re all addicted to buying anything and everything the choice available is so overwhelming that getting someone to choose your product, or the product your promoting is actually really difficult and is a fine art.

This ‘fine art’ comes in the form on the marketing acronym AIDA which stands for Attention, Interest, Desire and Action.

Rather than thinking of your affilate promotion as one blog post or a last minute email blast, start thinking of it in terms of a four part process. Yes it takes a bit more work but your bank balance will thank you for it.

Let’s start with stage one of the process;

Attention

Your first job is to get the attention of your readers and make them aware of the product. Note that there should be no real selling taking place here, of course embed the links but this blog post and email should merely be about letting you readers know that something is coming and that you’ll provide more details soon.

Interest

Your next job is to create interest for the product. In a seperate post or email let your readers know about what is unique and interesting about this product ie. why is it different? You will also want to highlight the products strongest features. Use plenty of your own experience and thoughts on this, it’s you they trust and will ultimately buy from.

Desire

The third stage is creating desire for the product. This could be selling the benefits of the product to your reader or letting them know it’s about to launch. It’s often said that consumers don’t buy products they buy benefits or desired results. Let your audience know exactly what these are, if you’ve used the product yourself (which I recommend) then you can give your reader your unique insights into this.

Action

The fourth and final action is to encourage your reader to take action, in this case make a purchase. This can done through a direct call to action ‘buy X now’ and also highlighting any time limits or scarcity, for example if there are only X amount of products available.

Follow this four step strategy for affiliate promotions and see your success rate soar!

Are Online Payments Working for You?

April 4, 2011 in Make money online, Online Marketing


A few years ago, pretty much all my clients paid by cheque on receipt of an invoice. A few sales went through paypal, one or two people had set up a standing order, but most of the time I had to send out a manual request for money and wait to get paid.

Fast forward to 2011, and a conversation with my bookkeeper, who said, “I was going through your books, Antonia, and wished I had so many payments coming in automatically.” Nowadays, more and more of my income comes via automatic online payments. No more cash-flow problems, far less work for me and the bookkeeper, and a far more reliable income for me, even during the holidays.

Online payment has played a big part in this change for me, which is why we’ve brought in tech expert Karen Skidmore to run a teleclass for us on ‘Taking Online Payments’. Karen has worked with me on my business, and now you have the chance to listen to her expert tips as she demystifies the smart ways to take online payments, set up a merchant account and more.

The ‘Taking Online Payments’ teleclass is only available to members of ‘Become a Mumpreneur’, so if you’d like to learn about how to bring the money in, hassle-free, pop over and join the course today. You have until 7pm to sign up and take part in the live teleclass which starts at 8pm on April 5th.

Growing Your Business: How to Earn More Money

March 24, 2011 in About ACEInspire, Business Ideas, Make money online


Over the next 4 weeks I’m going to address 4 issues that every business owner will face at some point. Going to the heart of the matter, this week we’re looking at How to Earn More Money!

To start you off, let’s be clear. How much money do you need and want to earn? Unless you’re clear about this, it can be hard to achieve your goal. So, take 5 minutes now to jot down your household expenses and see how much you’d need to increase your income to avoid going overdrawn, pay for the little extras that would make life a little better or to afford one of your big dreams.

Clear now? If you can say, “I need to earn another £500 (or £5000) each month”, you’re on your first step to reaching that goal.

Don’t be afraid to reach for the sky. Sometimes Erica and I laugh at ourselves when we set ourselves enormous targets … but do you know what? We always reach them, and tell ourselves to set a bigger goal next time. Aim high and stretch yourself: that’s a great way to increase your business income.

Work smarter. If your business is up and running, take time each week or month to look at where your money is coming from. And don’t just look at income: assess profit margins. If you understand which parts of your business make the most profit you can concentrate on those, and drop underperforming areas. We work on maintaining a high profit margin for ACEInspire, and only invest time in lower profit activities (that’s writing a book right now) if we know that they will extend our reach or build our expertise in a way that will grow the business in the long term.

Next week we’ll be looking at how learning new skills is critical to your business success. If you enjoyed this article and want to know more about improving the income you get from your business, sign up for our early notification list

Right now, Erica and Antonia are creating something NEW for every business woman who wants to:

  • bring in more money,
  • learn new skills
  • be part of a supportive community
  • achieve success
  • and do all this and have time to spend with the family.

Want to be one of the first to find out about this?
