Wouldn’t we all love to earn money doing something we love? Earning money from our passions, with the tools and technology at our fingertips in modern-day society, is actually possible. It’s called attraction marketing.
With the explosion of the digital age and consequent social media revolution, the internet provides a vast marketplace with a size that is almost incomprehensible. There are currently more than three billion internet users across the globe, a number that is growing every second. This is almost half of the world’s population. With such a vast marketplace, there is abundant space for everyone to make money, you just need a strategy.
So, where do your passions come into this? Well, whatever it is you’re interested in, chances are there are tens of thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands or even millions, of others into the exact same thing. We call this a niche.
Regardless of your experience online, with these interests and passions, you are in a position to be able to provide valuable information for the associated niche. And given that it’s your passion, you’re in a position to do so with energy and gusto which can be very inspiring to others, hence the term attraction marketing — your passion and character attracting similar others.
Basically, we all have something to offer in today’s world, it’s just having a strategy to make this work for you and earn money from it. That brings me onto the five principles:
1. A Website About Your Passion
Websites give you the opportunity to provide your audience with valuable information about your passion — valuable content. They can do this 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, worldwide! So if you want to make money from your passion, you need to first put it out there in some form of website. There are countless places you can do this for free or for a paid subscription. A Google search will throw up hundreds of options for you.
This website can be in the form of a blog or a landing page. A blog would consist of posts on a particular topic which give information and a point of contact. A landing page is a single page site which provides valuable information in return for a user’s email address. Both can collect potential customers around the clock. Such customers form your list of subscribers, which I will cover in more detail in principle three.
2. Advertising
It’s essential to understand that advertising online is one of the most powerful things you can ever learn to do, as it gives you the ability to put anything you want in front of anyone you want. Within minutes of building an ad, you can have your message out there, ready to provide value to an audience and make you money.
Online advertising gives you the ability to pinpoint and target your ideal customer and will underpin your attraction marketing strategy. With traditional marketing you need to convince and persuade people how amazing your product or service is. This type of promotion can immediately get people’s backs up. With targeted advertising online, you can get your products or information in front of the types of people that would appreciate what you’re offering, those who actually want what you have to offer.
Once you have provided valuable information about your passion, an ad can lead your audience directly to further information or products to buy. Alternatively, they can lead your audience to signing up and becoming a subscriber to your list.
3. List Building
A list of subscribers is simply a database of email addresses of people who have expressed an interest in the information, services, and products you are providing. Through attraction marketing, these people are those who have similar interests and passions to you or maybe people who just resonate well with your character.
Using an email management service like Aweber, for as little as $20 a month you can manage your communications automatically, using an autoresponder, to build a relationship with your subscribers and turn them from prospects into customers. This can also take place round the clock, while you sleep, automating your earning!
4. Provide Valuable Information About Your Passion
This is a critical step of attraction marketing. Once you have a list of subscribers all interested in you and your passions, it’s key to provide them with valuable content to build and develop a relationship with them. The relationship you have with your list is vital.
There are so many people and companies out there that try to convince you that their business opportunity is the best, most profitable, or has the greatest leadership, etc. But the truth is people get fed up with the bombardment and don’t buy in. It’s only once you have built a relationship by providing value that your prospects get to know, like, and trust you. It’s then that they want to buy into what you’re offering. Successful marketing should provide value 80% of the time and promote or offer 20% of the time. Using this approach of attraction marketing, you begin to stand out from the crowd.
5. Promote Offers
Once your systems are set up and you’ve built a relationship with your list, who now know, like, and trust you, you’re in a position to promote offers and people will more likely take action. That’s when the money starts to come in!
As an expert in your passion, you will be in a position to sell products or services that provide further information. There may also be affiliate offers that you could promote, too.
Let’s illustrate this with an example: if your passion or expertise is health and fitness, you will be in a position to write articles or produce videos that will provide valuable information to others in this area (e.g. Top Tips for Weight Loss or How To Build Muscle Mass, etc.). From these articles and videos, you can include a call to action, asking people to provide their email address and subscribe to further information or a monthly newsletter or video. Through your email list, you can continue to provide valuable information on health and fitness to continue to build the relationship. Now, you’re in a position to offer additional products or services. Examples may include a personalized fitness program, one-to-one personal training services, online coaching video calls, etc. If you want to go the affiliate route, you could offer other people’s products or services and receive a commission.
