Rich Sage Underground Income Discussion

I am sure everyone joining the Rich Sage Underground is wondering just one question –How much money can I make?

First of all, the Rich Sage Underground is the teaching and forum area where everything is managed.  The commissions are actually paid by the company –Maxsimo.

I’ll go into this discussion for two reasons:  First, you need to understand why certain decisions were made.  Second, even if you don’t join and work with me, you perhaps will follow other business plans.  In that case, you need to know and understand what works and what would not aide your success monetizing online.

As for my own commission pay, it’s a rather difficult question to answer because I have not expanded the network to function in a global nature to come up with answers.

However, from my own experience, delivering products and services locally, my immediate answer is that using my business model a Member can earn 10 to 20 times what they can earn while working exclusively online.

Here is a diagram with cash-flow sources:

In the above scenario, your income consists of all the income sources to the left –everything from local income to profit share from projects.

In this discussion I’ll explain as many of the benefits I’ve built into the Maxsimo Affiliate Program and the Membership “pillars” of income.

I first mentioned LOCAL INCOME: This is actually an option.  However, I strongly recommend that everyone pursue local income because it is where you learn what the community of businesses needs.  What they will pay a premium for and what we can deliver collectively to the masses.

Plus, I think its boring the sit behind a computer all day.  It’s better to get out, get some fresh air and meet people. It’s nice to talk to business leaders and find out what they are missing and what problem from Internet Marketing tools we can use to solve those problems.

Often Internet Marketers try to sell exclusively online.  The result is that they earn a $1 or $2 per day.  Most people are earning less than $100 per day doing this.  Such IMer’s are better off working fast food.

The real key to success with Internet Marketing is to learn as much as you can and then apply that knowledge on a local basis to aide busineses.

In my case, I’ve supercharged the process by utilizing several properties and ssytems that generate recurring commissions.

.

MAXSiMO SOFTWARE: This is our universal admin software that everyone is going to use to manage everything from Wordpress installations for your Clients, to mailing lists, auto-responders, digital product/brochure delivery to just plain communicate with Clients.

Maxsimo will have a CORE SUITE of products and services that you can deliver to Clients on a monthly basis and charge them anywhere from $19.95 to $249.95 (Note, this DOES NOT include hosting and some service fees you’ll charge).

Your goal is to use the software to help build business for your Clients.  The Member version of the software will also help you bill the Client using invoices, Paypal or our merchant account.  In the case of using our merchant account to bill your Clients, you’ll first need to establish a working relationship with the company and provide identification and proof of address.

.

Then there are MAXSiMO SOFTWARE USERS: These are people who can manage their own software that we deliver and use the network of products and services to do everything from press releases to articles to mailing list management.

The software will be delivered from corporate servers, update regularly and run via Firefox browser on Windows, Linux and Mac plat forms.  Of course, we also want to give access to data via an iPhone like interface as well to have real time reporting.

The bottom line is that the Client software will have as many products and services as we can have to help you earn as much money as you can.

.

Another “pillar” of income is added when you can refer AFFILIATES to your business.  These Affiliates are website owners who can download the Maxsimo Client software and deliver our products and services to their own Clients anywhere in the world.  You’ll earn a referral commission from these sales that is recurring.

It’s possible that you’ll have a few dozen of your own local Clients.  It’s also possible to have a few hundred of the software users who do their own management.  Then it’s entirely possible to have a few thousand users who are referred by Affiliates, from which you earn a monthly override.

This is similar to a 2-tier commission sharing plan, much like the one setup by Google, that is no longer in effect.  This is perhaps, the most powerful income generation method on the Internet –when you earn residual commissions from referral Affiliates.

.

I’ll not discuss too much about MEMBERSHIP MARKETING. Many of our products and services are sold via Membership.  They re-bill monthly, quarterly or even annually.  Every time an invoice is generated and paid, you earn a commission!

.

Earning from AFFILIATE PROGRAMS: As you may have noted, many of the properties that we are building can include links from Affiliate Programs.  Take for example, Savepedia(TM), which lists discounts worldwide.

Let’s say that you are an affiliate of HAL Computers, and can offer a 20% discount on online orders.  You just need to enter Savepedia as an Admin and edit the Country >> City >> Computer >> Category and enter your HAL COMPUTER discount coupon code, coupon or whatever is needed to get the discount.

How many such merchants do you think we can find worldwide?

How many of these types of merchants will pay you a small monthly fee to keep publishing on our network and use our management software or benefit from your Internet marketing services?

I am sure in a decent size city you will find thousand of these types of businesses –everyone from the brick and mortar stores to home based businesses to professionals will need your services.

.

CORPORATE SALES are very large accounts that you cannot handle.  You may even bring in the aide of a partner and focus on tasks that each is an expert in.  Still cannot manage the Client?

Then the company, Maxsimo can take over and service the needs of the Client.  We can use everything from Drupal, Joomla and a host of other CMS, forums, mailing list management systems, etc. to build outstanding solutions for your large Clients.

Then on a monthly basis we’ll take the cost out and then split the profit 50/50 between the company and you.

Of course, the products and services that we build for large Clients will also help us build the best management software for the smaller businesses.

All of these commissions are handled by Maxsimo Corporate billing on a monthly basis.  With each invoice generated, and paid, you’ll earn a commission paid to your Affiliate account and either sent by wire or Corporate check at the end of the month.

.

Lastly, there is the ownership perspective.  As Members, you will be helping build properties like Savepedia(TM).  I feel that it is an obligation of the company to then share with you part of our revenue (which we do via the Affiliate program) and project (as in stock ownership).  Remember, it’s PER PROJECT — We have the possibility to build around 3 or 4 large projects!

Therefore, when we build Savepedia(TM) I will seek an outside corporate giant’s participation.  What will be our exit plan?  The company and members can sell part of their stock to the large corporation.  If you look at the businesses where people make the most money, this is perhaps THE BEST WAY in WHICH MOST PEOPLE SIT at the TOP!  This is how the “big money” is made!

In my setup, you get to participate in such “action” just by using sweat equity!  I’ve also done a lot of the ground work to get you off to a fast start.  All you need to do is go to the Rich Sage Underground to get started.

Carpe Diem,
Rich Sage
