The magic word for me is "Residual Income." I love doing work once, and getting paid for it over and over and over again.
I'm currently making money from 4 types of online residual income sources, and wanted to show them to you.
Hopefully it will give you some ideas of ways you can residualize your business.
Type #1 - Online Membership Sites
I talked a little about these in my last blog post here:
http://www.dotcomsecrets.com/blog/residual_income_secret.htm
I think that these require the least amout of work, and can bring you CRAZY amounts of money...
Type #2 - An offline print newsletter or CD/DVD of the month club.
This is the residual income program that I make the bulk of my residual money from. We currently have about 3,500 people on our print continuity program, each paying $39.97 a month.
Yes, if you do the math, it can be VERY exciting...
3,500 people X $39.97 a month = $139,895 a month
or $1,678,740 a year!
If you aren't a member yet of our print newsletter, you can get a free month when you order our DotComSecrets DVD here:
http://www.dotcomsecretsdvd.com/newlongsqueeze.html
Type #3 - Online Software Programs
I created a lot of software programs when I first got started online, and just charged a 1 time fee to use them.
A little while later I got smart, and realized that I could make them membership style instead, and charge monthly to use them.
I've got quite a few of them, but one of my most famous examples is Digital Repo Man.
You can see him here:
http://www.digitalrepoman.com/
People pay monthly to use his services, and it takes NO extra effort on my side. :)
Type #4 - Online Network Marketing.
I'm currently involved in 3 network marketing companies, and all of them make me residual income each month.
The 3 programs I am a member of and receive residual commission checks are here:
1) Send Out Cards
2) BookWise
3) Success University
Russell, will you show me how you make over $200,000 a month with your residual income programs...?
Well, the answer is Yes, and NO...
Let me explain.
I started an exclusive coaching program earlier this year teaching our residual income systems. The students paid over $1,500 each to be part of if.
This is what we are teaching:
-
Module #1 - Print newsletters "How I got over 3,000 subscribers in less then 2 months"
-
Module #2 - Online membership sites "The secret to creating membership sites without ANY work at all!!!"
-
Module #3 - Recurring Billing Software Products "How to create software products that after you set up require no effort at all!"
-
Module #4 - Network Marketing Online "How to FINALLY master network marketing online - no more talking to ANYONE - EVER!!!"
-
Module #5 - Signup conversion and Attrition control secrets "How to get people to signup, and stay"
-
Module #6 - How to get others to do all of the work for you!!! "Strategies so you can spend time at the beach, while your residual income keeps coming in."
We are 1/2 way finished with the program now. Eventually we'll sell it as a very expensive home study course...
But not today.
Today you can't get it anywhere... but tomorrow you can.
The reason why, is Ryan Lee (has almost 50 membership sites) and Tim Kerber (manages over 400 membership sites) are launching their membership site bootcamp tomorrow (Friday July 20th at 12:00 PM EST).
I belive so much in their course, that for the first 20 people who invest in it tomorrow, you'll get 2 things.
1st - you'll get a copy of all of the training calls that we have done to this point.
2nd - you'll get to be in LIVE during the next 4 training calls we still have left!
All you have to do, it tomorrow buy a copy of Ryan and Tim's membership site bootcamp, and you'll have a chance to discover exactly how I've been able to earn almost $200,000 in monthly residual income.
(Note: It's really not that hard, as soon as you know HOW!)
You can order their course from this link at 12:00 PM EST tomorrow:

After you order, submit your ticket to www.customerhelpdesk.org

Thanks again,

Hi Russell, thanks for a great article. In your email to your list you asked: "Let me know which types you are using" so I will simply post a residual income stream that I promote which is http://www.goprofitmatic.com I found it to be amongst the best when it comes to having a unique pay structure and product. Mainly it's a unique set of online tools that can be used by the professional internet marketer in order to create professional looking minisites, headers, buttons, etc, see some samples here: http://www.discoverprofitmatic.com However, it also incorporates a great residual income stream which is why you would recognize some big name marketers promoting it if you checked out the program. My next gig will be to tackle setting up a membership site of my own but I'm still researching what types of software etc to use for this. That's it for now. P.S. I did not intend for this post to sound spammy so I hope it does not appear that way. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with those who need it. Arnold Hugo Stolting.
Thanks for revealing your sources of residual income. I just saw this internet marketing website http://www.empowered4profit.com and it has over 6 sources of income.
Thanks.
hey Russ,im impressed at how young you and the way you've come so far is remarkable,but im still a little sceptical, how do you make money? ive seen your plan,and its pretty straight-forward,but why are you doing this,would'nt you make more money just doing it instead of promoting it.
Russell, will you show me how you make over $200,000 a month with your residual income programs...?
I believe I should be taught how to generate at least $5000.00 per month from a systematic approach rather than lunging forward with over ambition with a crazy dream of suddenly falling down the motherlode, That's crazy hype...
Is there a systematic approach to each my $5000.00 per from a multiple stream on a residual basis?
The aim here is to keep it sweetly simple...Show me five programs that I can start up that gives me a return monthly of $1000.00 per month then with the guru extreme ability show me the next step on how to square that income therefore flipping my income generating level to $25,000.00 per month over a timespan of 6 - 12 months.
To achieve my $200,000.00 per strategy I would then need to double that $25000.00 to $50,000.00 per month then $100,000.00 then $200,000.00 per month over an etimated timespan of 24 to 36 months using a tested and proven step by step approach to build a consistent customer base along with the quality products and services that go along with this income building strategy.
I don't want to dream the dream that I can simple turn to a program that suddenly becomes a cashpoint of $200,000.00 per month that's too heavy for my head and unrealistic somewhat without a clearly defined approach with the necessary budgetary principle to attain such an achievement.
While $200,000.00 per month is achievable the decision making input has to be spot on as poor decisions prior to implementation and with such an objective in mind can prove demotivating and demoralising.
Thanks for the info on residual income. It is very interesting.
On a curious note.... I tried to send the thread to a friend and an error message appeared.
Thanks again
I first want to say, I hope the family is doing great and your new baby girl is fine.
Your one I watch online because you don't B.S. people like most marketers tend to do.
The points I have learned from you have helped me with my own business over and over.
It's my belief that residual income is better then any other form of marketing overall.
The reason in my opinion this stands so true is the fact that from one sale you are paid
over and over again without doing anything further to get that payment.It's locked in!
I know you were heading for a wrestling career in life, but I think your a better teacher.
Thanks for posting this info for all of us trying to get where you are in marketing.
I've gotta get better at your # 1,2, & 3 recommendations... but, my # 4 are strong! Let's connect! at www.together.ws !
Peace & Blessings,

I am someone on your email list who finds your blog very interesting. I am a physical education teacher in Australia who is looking for an additional income stream. I like my work, so don't plan on quitting but would like to supplement what i earn at this stage of my life. The figures you throw out there per month are totally out there. I am envious!!!!! I don't have a web site as yet as I don't know how to go about it???? Any advice to get supplementary income via the web is great.
I look forward to your advice.
Tony
Well, I have 2 of #1- http://EZNetGroup.net and http://Foreclosuredocs.com and while we do #2...we do not charge for it. I think we do #3 because of the first site and I do #4 with a Company called Youngevity which helps people live younger, longer.
Sorry, but anyone who says: The secret to creating membership sites without ANY work at all
is NOT doing the membership site for the benefit of the members...but for the cash they derive from it....and if they aren't putting in any work for their members...that's a temporary check.
As far as "How to FINALLY master network marketing online - no more talking to ANYONE - EVER" well, as a Professional Network Marketer who IS exclusively online (and has made 6 figures PER month)...I promise YOU that is NOT "network marketing" because you cannot build a solid network without talking to the people who are joining you. Again, that's a temporary check!
On Signup conversion and Attrition control secrets "How to get people to signup, and stay" my belief if if you are going to sign someone up...then you have a responsbility to them and if you don't live up to that responsibility...then they will "quit" on you EVERY time. There is no secret...
LOL "Strategies so you can spend time at the beach, while your residual income keeps coming in."
Trust me on that one...it starts to get boring if you don't stay active in the game...unless you're so burned out...time off is all you want...but then whatever you build will become a temporary check...again :-(

Hello Russell
Great article you wrote.
You asked to tell which streams of income I use. I use Multiple Streams of Income like multi level marketing, google adsense, affiliate marketing and online memberships at this moment.
One of my sites, http://www.AtHomeMakingOnlineIncome.com/pips/ provides people the opportunity to start working from home with 6 different streams of income. With that opportunity is a 30 days course which learns how to start from scratch. That is great when you know nothing about how making your income with internet.
On the site http://www.AtHomeMakingOnlineIncome.com people can subscribe to a minicourse and my newsletter with tips etc. to become more succesful on the internet and a great free ebook from Stone Evans in which he explains what to do to become succesful.
On my blog I published an article from Stone Evans about what you personally need to have to become very succesful. I relate there to some other sites where you can learn about the subjects that Stone Evans tells about and where you can learn how to apply it in your life. These sites are http://www.magneticfreedom.com/site.php/affi/hit/118/ and www.Magneticsun.Delfinworld.com.
Dear Russell Brunson,
first of all, I would love to thank you for your committment of sharing such great value with us. The idea of residual income is not just about period revenue of money. It is rather far more, it mirrors a philosophy of giving, sharing and the deep believe, that we all can get what we desire, if we have the right approach, the right mindset, and people around who want to live the same.
I am just discovering the all existent and growing possiblilities for creating lasting wealth.
Wealth is a chance to share with people and to give value back to the world and the people aroung us.
I would love to learn from you and the people around here as well. I hope that everybody gets the right out of your informationes for them. Your system seem to be a shortcut on the often to long or never reached trail to wealth and success.
With the same in mind, I would love to share the following opportunity for creating financial freedom to the visitors of your site as well.
Enriching each other is a great thing.

PS. Hope you dont mind me posting here but I didnt know how else to contact you.
Russell,
I subscribe to your print magazine and love it! I really like all the great information you share not only on your blog but also in your magazine.
I think that residual income is definitely the way to go, but also building systems that are viral and will grow exponentially as your business grows.
As far as MLM goes - I have built a complete system that my team can simply plug into, and earn money from, outside of our primary business. This allows them to get started quickly making money, and stay long enough to enjoy the residual income that will come from MLM.
You can find out more about my system here: Internet MLM Pro Secrets
I would love to hear your feedback on it.
Hi Russell,
Thanks for this Great articles.
I'm currently in an online network company selling education online.
It's had being a Great start as it's newly launch on the internet though they had being working offline for almost 4 years.
Dear Russ,
I have been in your email list for quite some time and I would like to say thank you for your generosity in giving us something to ponder about.
The only thing we need is to listen to the "button" when it shouts push. As always all the grandest ideas are nothing without implementation...
Thanks again,

Every little piece of usable information helps. Thanks again. www.lifeofegypt.com
Russell, it looks like you have a great program here. I just wanted to say that I'm also in Bookwise and find it to be one of the best network marketing companies out there. I think its so great that they actually take the time to teach you how to become a published author as well as teaching you how to manage your money (taxes and such). Good to see others see the value in it as well.
Russel,
Do you have any resources that might help us to convert more of our site visitors into actual sales?
Thanks,
Justin (aka SureFire Guy)
Excellent article!
Id love for you to submit it to my home business news site, http://www.homebusinessvoices.com/

"$139,895 a month" that is amazing to me. Awesome job and great post. I have been subrcibed to your newsletter and I absoulutly love it. I recommend that everyone joins!
Thanks
Great post Russell, that's a eye opener for everyone to see the 4 different types of residual income. The DOTComSecrets magazine is brilliant, and the amount of actual sales it equates to is mind boggling, residual income is the word.

Wow residual income sound really great..i'll try this method and see how the cash flows
I am been a follower of your advice for many years now. I have bought products of yours, signed up for your newsletters and been an affiliate for you. I can be a testomony hat what you teach works!
Thanks.
Hey Russell,
Wow I never even considered offline newsletters as a residual source. Very cool idea. I'm guessing you outsource the actual content of these newsletters so you don't have such a high work load.
But thanks for the article you just gave me a whole new idea to play around with :)
Cheers,
Tristan
