Put Me In Coach, I’m Ready… to Get Paid

Posted by: Jeff Leget, Director of Operations

During my family road trip over Thanksgiving I listened to a great deal of 80’s music on the radio. John Fogerty’s “Put Me in Coach, I’m Ready to Play” got me thinking about ClickBank and how many people these days may be “ready to play” and not even know it.

For example, my sister-in-law recently finished her second Ironman triathlon. She trained for 9+ months with the help of a coach, with whom she mostly corresponded online. (She did great, by the way.) My wife did the same thing for a half-Ironman earlier this year, and she too had great success. I am now getting almost-daily updates from a financial advisor via email about the stock market turmoil.

I have heard that a lot of people are re-evaluating their lives and looking for “life coaches” in the wake of financial catastrophe. Advice is important even for small decisions. Before my family started out on our road trip, we looked online for travel advice regarding where to go, where to stay, and what to do.

My point is that a lot of people have great information and experience to leverage for advising or coaching others. How do I avoid foreclosure? How do I land a job after I’ve been laid off? How do I start a new career? How do I pull together the best holiday party on a budget? How can I be a better parent, athlete, coach, or person?

So what’s your unique knowledge? What’s your niche? It’s time to get off the bench and start making money from your experiences. ”Put me in coach, I’m ready…” to get paid.

    Hi, I’ve never heard of an Ironman triathlon, but I do agree that a life coach is an excellent idea. My trouble is that I am sitting on the fence right now. I discovered blogging six months ago and enjoy it very much. Now I am wondering about going professional but I have no niche. I just write about my life, and what product can you sell based on a life story?

  • Frank says:

    To help Cashmere on here statement. There are many things that you use in your life (during your life story) that you share with people for free. A good example would be going to see a great movie and then telling others to go see it. You just helped the movie make a ton of money and you didn’t get paid. With clickbank, you can use the products and then tell other to try the product based on your hop link ( you then get paid for sharing something that you used in your life during your life story.) Granted, you can’t use every product, but you can find one that would help you make money, or just refer people to your clickbank referral link to make money off of their efforts.

    I need to create a website in order to sell some products,but I do not have even a clue on how to do such a thing.then how do I post products once I have a website.

    Hi Donald,

    Many web hosts like Godaddy.com and Hostgator.com either include simple Web site building tools for free as part of your account, or charge a small fee for site building. If you don’t know anything about building a site, this could be a good option.

    Once you have a Web site set up, check out the following instructions on how to list products:

    I hope that helps a bit!

    Hi Donald,

    There are also some great free website builders out there. I used synthasite.com and I love it. They let you do pretty much what ever you want as long as it’s ethical. You can even monitize it by using services such as clickbank. And they have a store builder in it, i don’t know much about that part because I don’t use it. Also sitesell.com is good if you can afford it.

    Anyway, Best Regards, CLICKBANK ROCKS!!!

    Hi. I have started with clickbank in December 2008. Your blog is inspirational to start my road to a fruitful goal.
    I have experiences in Homoeopathy, astrology and numerology and now working on esoteric healing.

    I am new to the world on internet. Do like to know how to have a website or webpage that generate income.

  • I’m a big fan of John Fogerty and CCR! Loved the title of the post! My experience online and also the advice of upliners and downliners is…Don’t Waste Time goofing off online…don’t spend your day playing games or watching Youtube, WORK! ADVERTISE! Persistence Pays More than anything else in this world!
