Content builds Traffic, which is PREsold as you build your "brand of one." Then, and only then, are you ready to Monetize.

SBI! and you deliver the hard part... PREsold traffic. Monetization is the easy part -- it flows from a site with PREsold traffic the way electricity flows from a river through a dam.

And do not limit yourself. Too many small businesses start out thinking that they "want to be an affiliate," or sell hard goods through an "online store." Yes...

Do have a primary monetization model in mind -- but plan to diversify into multiple streams of revenue to maximize income, growth and stability. Take full advantage of the PREsold traffic you will develop with SBI! .

Here are just some of your Monetization options...

Infopreneurs/Information-Publishing (click to see how to add this revenue)
Now you can publish what you know and love... and monetize it. Together with a blend of affiliate programs and referral deals, AdSense anchors the generation of extra thousands of dollars per month to your online, niche-oriented SBI! business.

SOHOs & Work-From-Home (click to see how to add this revenue)
Thinking about starting a work-from-home business? Run a genuine business, your business, from home, full- or part-time. No "biz opp" here -- this is real.

Service Businesses (click to see how to add this revenue)
Offer a service related to your niche. Build a client base, whether clients are local (ex., magician for house parties) or global (ex., JAVA programmer). (Or start a completely new service business.)

E-goods Creators/Sellers (click to see how to add this revenue)
Are you a programmer (or hire one!) with an idea for a needed niche-filling software? Or perhaps you have an idea for an e-book? Maybe a photographer with collections of e-photos (the e-photo sales market will boom!). Anything can be digitized nowadays -- sell it.

Hard Goods Creators/Sellers (click to see how to add this revenue)
Are you a small business or a craftsman that creates/manufactures/retails your own hard goods (i.e., products that you can actually touch and that you ship -- non-digital products)? Put up (copy-and-paste HTML) your own store and sell direct, without Yahoo! Stores, eBay, etc... or with. No products of your own -- you can still add a wonderful store, sourced from thousands of manufacturers that drop-ship for you (no need for you to hold inventory, nor pick-pack-and-ship)

Sales and Rental Agents/Reps/Distributors (click to see how to add this revenue)
It's your traffic -- sell or rent what you want, how you want. Do you represent great products, either for sale (from medical equipment to ice cream makers) and/or rent (from apartments to heavy equipment)? See how SBI! can boost your sales by millions (literally).

Affiliates (click to see how to add this revenue)
Add hundreds-to-thousands of dollars per month to your diversified monetization plan, without having a product of your own -- no warehousing, packaging, shipping, etc. And if you do sell a product of your own, simply choose merchants that complement your product line.

Referrers/Finders (click to see how to add this revenue)
Another great "add-on" monetizer. This model is as classic as business itself... get paid a referrer or finder's fee by an offline business for finding a customer (or a "lead") for it. The Net, though, makes it far more cost-effective.

Existing Online Businesses/E-commerce Sites (click to see how to add this revenue)
Already have an existing online business or e-commerce sites? Do you need an ongoing stream of free, targeted traffic... motivated, interested buyers? Use SBI! as a traffic-funnel, for a tiny fraction of the cost of your primary site.

Network Marketers/Multi-Level Marketers (click to see how to add this revenue)
Forget those spammy online lead-generators. Imagine if you could build your own unique site that attracted and PREsold warm leads to call YOU all day long? No more "you chasing them." That is exactly what you and SBI! can achieve together.

Net Auction Sellers (click to see how to add this revenue)
Put eBay to work for you, instead of vice-versa. Use them as a supplemental source of income to auction a product that relates to your theme. Especially useful for local businesses or vendors that sell hard goods, and even for service-sellers. And obviously, for those who want to start an online auction business.

Local Offline Businesses (click to see how to leverage this business)
If you own an offline business with local clientele, a Web site is a must. Use it to grow your business locally and, in many cases, to extend your market globally (yes, you!)

Web Professionals (click to see how to add this revenue)
Your design work is sharp and creative. Your clients like your sites. But they ask... "So how do I get traffic?" It's time to convert your satisfied clients into raving fans, while simultaneously boosting productivity by 1000%.

Bottom Line?

Start at the beginning... CONTENT.

Do not start at the end... MONETIZATION.

So many people spend time and energy setting up a shopping cart and a merchant account or some other way of "collecting the money." That's putting the (shopping) cart before the e-horse of PREsold traffic.

MONETIZATION comes last... it's the final result of doing everything else (C T P) correctly.

The easiest part of any small business site is mix and matching the most appropriate blend of Monetization models into your traffic-generating site.

The key is to eliminate "offline thinking." Recognize the fundamental reality of how people use the Web. Online, people look for Content.

Start there by delivering Content, which builds Traffic, which is PREsold. Then and only then, are you ready to Monetize.
