This morning I quickly scanned through a product which was teaching people how to create a recurring income product where they can earn a passive income through having other people sell it for them.
This was a course which was listed originally on the Warrior Plus marketplace.
Fergal Downes, the guy behind this product, creates products which he lists on both Clickbank and Warrior Plus.
He pays affiliates 75% commissions on all of the frontend products, including the upsells and downsells, and 50% commission on the one backend recurring product which subscribers pay $97 each month.
Basically, he has an army of affiliates sell the products for him.
In one of the videos he mentioned that he was earning £66,500 per month from his products.
What I found interesting in the videos I watched this morning is that Fergal was making a ton of money selling products which are incredibly simple to make.
The course that I was looking at this morning had 16 videos in total. The longest one was 21 minutes as he showed you around his Warrior Plus dashboard, the rest were between two and five minutes long.
There were a few videos where Fergal showed you specific pages or websites online, other than that most of them were videos of slides with a few bullet points and lines of text where he talked about what was written.
They were all very simple.
Forgetting the planning of the product itself and creating the website and sales material – which I believed he outsourced, the actual course creation (recording the videos) probably took no more than half a day.
I imagine that it took Fergal just a couple of hours to record the videos.
Fergal is making thousands of pounds each month for courses which are collections of short videos. I imagine his monthly membership which is paying him a recurring income is pretty similar.
I don’t have access to that product so I can’t say for definite, but what I do know is that he says he releases a new module each month which I am going to assume is much the same… short video content.

Fergal only creates two of the twelve modules before he releases his membership product to the public. He creates the rest once it is live.
The reason he does it this way is that he can lose money if he waits to release it once all the modules are recorded.
It’s best to get it out there and start making sales and then create the rest of the content while people are consuming the first two modules.
I agree with that 100%.
Get the money in and keep people paying by creating and releasing new quality content.
While people are paying you money and you are focusing only on the next month’s content, you can do a better job and create better content.
If you wait to release your monthly membership course until after all of the modules are done, you will feel pressured and after month six or seven, you may become a bit jaded and the quality may start to slip.
I’ve talked many times before about publishing information products and running subscription businesses to generate a passive income and Fergal is a perfect example of someone who is doing just that.
The reason I talk about it often is that it is a business model which is available to everyone.
It doesn’t matter where in the world you live, how old you are, what your technical abilities are and what you know… you have the opportunity to create products that you can sell online to people all over the planet.
People can buy products from you at any time of the day and night earning you a passive income.
And as I have mentioned many times before, those products can be a series of short videos or a simple short eBook.
They don’t need to be anything ridiculously complicated or long.
EBooks can be created by writing in Google Docs which is free to use if you have a Gmail account. Google Docs allow you to save your work as a PDF.
Videos can be created using software such as ScreenCast-O-Matic which is an easy-to-use online service costing as little as £25 for the whole year.
Creating digital information products is all a lot easier than most people realise.
