Easy passive income idea, $2,312
on auto from an ebook
Are you looking for a way to make extra income passively?
Today, I'm going to share with you how I made $2,312 from an e-book passively in just a couple of weeks.
So as many of you know, because I've shared this so many times on my blog and YouTube videos, I created a brand new e-book called 15-Day Digital Product.
And last month I did a three-day promotion for that e-book at the beginning of the month.
What's even better than that is I decided to automate the sales process for that e-book. And I was able to make $2,312 on autopilot in just a couple of weeks from that same e-book.
So how did I do that?
How did I create the funnel?
What's the sales strategy?
How did I get sales on autopilot?
Let's get into it...
So obviously the first thing I did was actually create the product, but once I had that created, I decided to create a simple funnel so that I could send traffic to that funnel and get sales on autopilot consistently.
So the funnel is very, very simple. It is simply a checkout page.
And a checkout page is just a page with a checkout form on it so that people can fill in their information and actually purchase the digital product.
Now, this is what it looks like:
Here are the elements you’ll see on the checkout page:
-A timer at the top of the screen for sale or promotion countdown
-A photo of the digital product so people can kind of visually see what it is that they're buying
-The list of what the digital product is all about and the results people will get if they purchase the product
-The total price or the special price offer
-The checkout form where people put in their name, their email, their credit card, or PayPal information depending on how they want to pay
-An order bump which is a little box within the checkout page where people can check to add something to the order
-Screenshots of different testimonials of what other people had to say about the e-book or digital product
So the funnel that I created automatically brings in sales for my 15-Day Digital Product.
Now it's just a matter of sending traffic.
Here’s what I did to send traffic to the funnel:
I started posting the link everywhere. I posted it on my Instagram, my link tree, and my TikTok. Of course, I also added the link in the description on every single YouTube video.
I also intertwined it with my welcome email series so that when people start to get my welcome email series, they will also at the end get invited to purchase 15-Day Digital Product.
And since I put up very consistent content and I very consistently market my freebies to get people on my email list.
Honestly, I have consistently been getting sales for my 15-Day Digital Product ever since.
That's where the majority of my sales come from.
But maybe you don't have an email list yet or you wanna continue to grow yours so you can get more sales. Here’s a link to get my free funnel so that you can turn your followers into email subscribers. This funnel is already built out for you totally for free so check it out here.
Now, I created a three-part framework for you to better understand how you can start making passive sales consistently from your own digital product.
Three-part Framework
1. Create your funnel
So the first part of the framework is to create your funnel.

2. Send traffic to that funnel consistently
Now the second part of the framework is to send traffic to your funnel consistently.
Remember, in order to continually generate sales, you need to get eyeballs consistently to your offer. The traffic should come everywhere as I mentioned a while ago.
The reason why my funnel works so well is that I added a timer that gives a sense of urgency and scarcity.
The timer on the checkout page gives an impression to potential customers that they need to “act now” or immediately to get the best price. And that always makes people want to act now.
And I personally believe you're really doing your followers a service by getting them to act now because the sooner they act and the sooner they take action, the sooner they're going to get the results and reach the goals that they want to reach.
So again, how do you send traffic to your funnel?
-Put out content consistently whether blogging, on YouTube, TikTok, or Instagram, and promote the link to your funnel
-Send an automated email sequence to your email list if you already have one
3. Review your data
Now the third part of the framework is to review your data.
In essence, reviewing data means you should wait until your funnel gets enough traffic before judging if it was successful or not.
So typically you should get at least 100 to 1000 page views on your checkout page before actually reviewing your data.
I have a lot of students come to me and they're like, “I don't know why my product's not selling, my funnel's not selling” and I go and look and they only had five or 10 eyeballs on their checkout page altogether.
Well, that's simply not enough data to even analyze.
You need to have at least 100 eyeballs or 100 page views in order to even start analyzing that data.
Here are Qs to answer when analyzing your data:
-Am I sending the right traffic to my checkout page?
-Is it clear what my offer is?
-Do I have a photo of the offer?
-Am I using testimonials or at least my testimonial or story to promote it?
So, really start looking at those different things before you make a conclusion.
Maybe you don’t know, your funnel might just need a couple of tweaks to get it performing.
