Through our innovative online platform, we provide these “everyman” infopreneurs all of the tools, training and trusted relationships they need to profitably market unique and useful information products to niche audiences all around the world.

And because changing lives for the better is highly addictive, our team is passionate about sharing this unique opportunity with the world and helping hundreds of thousands of people become successful infopreneurs.
Our Model Makes the Difference
Why is ClickBank’s infopreneurial model a more effective way to monetize niche-oriented information and specialized knowledge? Among other things, the infopreneurial model allows you to…
Earn more money from a much smaller base of customers.
By selling more information to the same customers over time, an infopreneur can make good money in niches that are far too small for traditional publishers to even consider.
Package and sell your information in a variety of forms.
From documents and audio files to videos and membership sites, the ways in which an infopreneur can capture, sell, and deliver information are continually expanding.
Reach your niche audience anywhere in the world.
Through effective use of the Internet, an infopreneur can now reach some of the most fragmented and geographically-dispersed niche audiences.
Create a business that works with or without you.
While requiring concerted effort in the beginning, an infopreneur really can create a business that operates on auto-pilot and provides passive income for years.
Pioneering in the Digital Domain
As a research scientist for the NSA, Dr. Tim Barber was working on some of the most difficult computational problems facing national security when a different set of problems and opportunities caught his attention and ignited his entrepreneurial spirit.
In the mid-nineties, Tim recognized that the rapid adoption of the Internet would enable an explosion of websites and digital content.
As a result, the Internet would become increasingly noisy, making it more and more difficult for niche audiences and digital content producers to connect. At the same time, he saw that while the Internet could enable commerce between entities and individuals around the globe, the lack of trust and fear of fraud would be significant gating factors to realizing the full potential of electronic commerce.
In 1998, Tim, along with Eileen Barber and Geoff Hoyl, founded ClickBank. From the company’s early beginnings of operating out of the Barbers’ garage and addressing commission checks from their kitchen table, ClickBank has seen significant growth over the past decade and a half. ClickBank continues to operate and grow by enabling entrepreneurs to sell, and customers to buy information online, securely.
