Chapter 8: Building Your Battalion of Interested People
It is quite understandable why you could have a much better success at monetizing your product of passion if you have a huge army of people to promote what you are trying to sell. With the various tools that the Internet has to provide, you can do this in a very simple manner.
Remember that when there are a lot of likeminded people working with you, the confidence comes by itself. These people are your confidence bank; when you see them pushing your product, you get more driven.
So, how do you go about building this army of people? One of the ways of doing this is through lead generation. Lead generation quite simply means to get contact details of people who are even remotely interested in what you are trying to sell. Now, there are various ways to do it as well, but one of the cheapest and commonest ways to do this is by giving people some free gifts such as eBooks or newsletter subscriptions. You could promote these giveaways on your blog page itself and give them a download link. However, this download link won’t directly take them to the giveaway page. It will take them through a squeeze page where they will be asked their email ids. People won’t mind giving their email ids because they are getting something free for it. These email ids will then be in your kitty – you could use them to entice people in various ways about your business.
When people add themselves to your list, your job is to keep providing them quality information. It might happen that they get much impressed with your newsletters, eBooks or emails and they end up buying your product. When they like that, they become a part of your formidable battalion. They will not mind recommending your product to others.
The same applies
when you are monetizing your content. When people read your content, you could
ask them to add themselves to your feeds.
When they do that, they will automatically get to know whenever you update the
content. They will visit again. They could become part of your admiration
society. Such people will then recommend you to others (you could speed that up
by giving them an incentive, such as a free subscription or an eBook, etc.).
Your army is now at work. It is promoting your business idea beyond its
reaches.
Summary:
You are really set when you have a huge collection of
people who are impressed with your product and help you in selling the product
to more people through referrals or more.

Chapter 6: Promoting Your Stuff Online – When Does the Confidence Come?
Summary:
Monetization happens only when you are confident about
what you are selling. Even a fruit seller has to be convinced that his oranges
are good or no one would purchase them from him. But you are decidedly going to
play at bigger stakes than mere oranges here.

Chapter 5: Goodwill Hunting and Finding Niches
If you don’t target the right people, you will find monetizing anything to be a very much uphill task. After all, how could you make money out of your recipes if you don’t find people who would be willing to spend in order to learn those recipes from you? You see the point – you need to find your niche.
One of the best ways to do that on the Internet is known as Search Engine Optimization, or SEO for short. Chances are that you will already have a modicum of knowledge about SEO if you are dabbling with Internet businesses. If you don’t, here’s what it means. SEO simply means pumping up your website (a blog is a website as well) for the search engines. This is really important because the search engines are through where people are looking for information. When someone wants to know about something, they type in a word or a phrase in a search engine like Google or Yahoo! or Ask. Then, they visit the links that show up. Usually, people only click on the links that appear on the first page and very few go even to the second page. Hence, it becomes very important for someone wanting to become famous on the Internet (and hence monetize something) to figure on the first page of any search engine.
Even if you
don’t have websites of your own, you could make posts on other people’s blogs
and forums and get a good fan following of your own. Many blog commentators get
a lot of responses, thus building fan bases of their own. When they get such a
fan base, they go right ahead and build their own blogs or websites and
introduce these people to them. This could be a great way to find your niche
and earn goodwill among them too, without putting in any investment of your
own.
Another way is
through article marketing. You could write articles about the subject that you
are trying to monetize. These articles could then be put up in places such as
EzineArticles.com, iSnare.com, ArticleAlley.com, GoArticles.com,
ArticleCity.com, etc. The best part of submitting your articles to such places
if that these places are already popular with the search engines. Hence, if you
were to submit some very informative articles here, you could get a large fan
following for them. Also, keep in mind that the people who will stumble upon
your articles will be people who are actually looking for some kind of information
in that particular department.
Summary:
You have started on your monetizing journey. Now, what
you need is people who will pay you money!

Chapter 3: Why You Just Cannot Forget the Internet
First and foremost, today the whole concept of monetization has changed. No longer are people thinking conventional. They are trying to make money out of new ideas, new concepts, setting their minds to work. This is not possible unless these entrepreneurs can find the very people who have a liking for what they are selling. In short, they are working in specialized niches and that is the reason they need to find people who they can regard as their niche clientele.
The Internet allows that. When you are working on the Internet, you will find that there are tons of ways in which you can find people interested in whatever you are trying to do. You want to build a fan site for a show that no one watches around you? You can do that on the Internet. You want to speak about a hobby that you have and think no one else has? You will be surprised to find how many people share you special fondness on the Internet. Do you have a particular talent that you think no one cares about? On the Internet you will find a whole barrage of people who do. Or, probably you have made a product that no one around you finds useful. You will really be pleasantly surprised to see that you have a niche market for that product as well, on the Internet.
The main thing is that the Internet boosts your confidence. When you know that there are several people who are interested in the same things as you are and are also interested in what you are trying to sell, you become more confident about making that object or conceptualizing that idea and monetizing it.
The best part of it is that there is no rejection. Gone are the days when sellers had to peddle their wares to the customers; today with the help of the Internet, it is very much possible to bring interested customers to your door. If you are the shy introverted kind who shudders at the idea of being refused, the Internet is the place where you can market.
The great amount of resources that you can
find on the Internet is the biggest draw, of course. There are ways in which you
can bring people right at your door, waiting to buy whatever it is you are
selling. This is what bolsters your confidence and inspires you about your
enterprise, even if it doesn’t do anything else for you.
Summary:
The Internet is where the real monetization is at.

Chapter 2: Making Money Out of Anything… Anything!
The first thing you have to realize when you are trying to develop the confidence to make money out of anything is this – You can make money out of anything!
But what is this ‘anything’ we are talking about? It could be a product that you have invented. If it has a utility – and sometimes, even if it doesn’t – you can make money out of it. Or, it could be a product you have obtained from someone else and are now authorized to make money out of. Or, it could be a talent that you have. It could be simply your knowledge or some special knowhow about a particular thing.
Even people who think they have nothing
have a lot of things they can make money out of. No one is wasting space here.
Before plunging headlong into discussions about how you can do this, let us speak about something very, very positive. The Law of Attraction. This law has gripped the world by storm and it is very much poignant to our topic of discussion. In a nutshell, the law says that – When you think about something very strongly, the whole universe aligns itself to fulfill your desire. Yes, the law states that thoughts bring results. It speaks about the energy of the mind, which can actually make things happen.
This is quite a true law, and people who have stated that the law is nonsense and doesn’t work for them started with disbelief in the first place. If you want the law to work, you have to put your full faith in it. Think solely about your objective. Think about what you want. Think without flinching or hesitating. Slowly, things will start happening. When you think so deeply, you are bound to take actions in that direction. Everything that you do will be toward achieving that single goal. Naturally, things are going to start working out. Your deep, unwavering thoughts will bring you closer to the fulfillment of your desires.
Even when you are planning to monetize something, you have to put this law into action. Never for a moment must you think that there is no money in this. In fact, don’t think in monetary terms, think of the larger picture. The money comes in as an aside. When you put in your efforts whole-heartedly, it doesn’t take time for you to be rewarded monetarily anyway.
Summary:
Sounds desperate, but it is true. Rich people haven’t become rich by undermining opportunities.

Chapter 1: The Name of the Game
If you conduct some research on the Internet for what monetization actually means, you will be thrown up with a lot of definitions. Actually, monetization is an umbrella term for a lot of assorted things, but in a much generalized manner, we can say that monetization means making money out of things that people don’t usually consider money-worthy. For example, if you have an old collection of Archie’s Comics from your dad or your uncle and you are able to sell them for a tidy sum, you have monetized the collection.
Monetization means making money out of ordinary things, in unexpected ways.
It is quite easily understandable why people are going all out trying to monetize everything that is in their sight. Or, even out of sight. People are making money out of special talents that they have. If you have a special talent for math and are using it to tutor the neighbor’s kid for money, you are monetizing your talent. If you are writing a piece of content and selling it to someone, you are monetizing your flair for writing.
We are all very conscious of monetizing, but have probably never done it in an organized manner. Our occupations pay us, and we are usually content with what we get and don’t try to stick our necks out much. However, it is essential to know that there are several other things that we can make money out of. If we play our cards well, we can actually generate streams of passive income through things we set up once and enjoy the influx of money for our lifetime. That would be something like royalties on your products.
Monetization refers to what you can make money out of, over and above your usual profession. It is about your attempt, not the product’s worth. It is about how you understand a particular thing or talent is monetizable and then how you go about it.
Here, we are going to see various methods in which you can build
streams of income for yourself, out of things that you never felt you could
make money from.
