How Beginners Can Grow Passive Incomes … 10 Suggestions

For Beginners To Grow Passive Incomes, Knowledge Commerce Is A Great Online Business Idea. But How Passive You Can Really Be While Earning Big? Read On …

It’s an ideal business for solopreneurs. If you want to grow yourself into an exclusive and premium brand, and command market-dominating prices, this is your perfect opportunity. So get in early.

Do you forever want to be tied down managing your Knowledge Commerce products … or do you want to “productize” your unique knowledge cleverly? Don’t you want your products to sell themselves passively to more and people, even as you sleep?

Most solopreneurs would jump at the idea of building products once. They’d prefer products that sell over and over, without their own perpetual participation. But though “passive income-earning” is a good idea, in theory, it’s not as easy to achieve. You have to specifically and shrewdly build products to earn passive incomes.

Many passive income products are poorly designed. They become semi-passive earning routes. They still demand the time and effort of the solopreneur to keep them going.

At Solohacks Academy, we have developed a set of smarts for passive income products. We’ve understood where we can afford to stay distant from our products and where some effort is inevitable, but can still be pared to the minimum. We’d love to share our learnings with you.

How To Do Micro Marketing By Going Granular … 10 Smarts

By Shobha Ponnappa Leave a Comment

Micro Marketing Is Ideal For Solopreneurs, Because It Calls For Extremely Narrowed But Extremely Intensive Focus On Small Groups Of Highly Targeted Audiences.

It’s an ideal business for solopreneurs. If you want to grow yourself into an exclusive and premium brand, and command market-dominating prices, this is your perfect opportunity. So get in early.

Micro marketing is based on the idea that if you break down your already tight niche into smaller and smaller segments of specific audiences to target, you can hit the sales threshold faster than otherwise.

Why does micro marketing work faster? The primary reason is that when you address small groups of people whose pain points you can understand deeply, and focus on with great detail, your blog posts and other marketing communication can be very concentrated to their needs.

Your words can resonate with audiences better and at an emotional and empathetic level. Your audiences instinctively begin to feel that you know them and their issues very well, and they feel as if you are writing for them, almost on a one-to-one basis. Trust bonds develop faster when people feel “understood” … and as trust builds, so does sales.

At Solohacks Academy, we love the idea of lean and mean marketing. When you are a solopreneur, having a small but homogenous target audience, it makes it that much easier to produce laser-targeted content that is valuable for them. You don’t need to work with a bunch of different personas and their varied buying journeys. Marketing should be as easy as ready-aim-shoot.
