When Rich Schefren gave his webinar to Alex Jeffreys students, he emphasised how important it is to separate yourself from the business and identify ways in which the business can run without your daily input.

Rich showed a slide called ‘Step by Step Plan to Freedom’ in which your business was split into three sections:
-    Marketing  (Customer Attraction, Conversion and Retention)
-    Fulfilment  (Product Development, Delivery and Improvement)
-    Operations (Finance, Human Resources and Systems)

The idea being to identify the processes within the business.

Through ‘process mapping’, it should help you identify better ways of doing things in order to make best use of your time and resources.

I’ve been working to develop some software that is aimed at helping internet marketers improve areas of their fulfilment processes through automation.

To succeed in Internet marketing, we have learned that marketers benefit from having their own product.

We also know that some customers will pay a premium for the same product in a different format.

What I am developing is a web service that helps automate the manufacture and shipping of physical information products such as CD’s and DVD’s.

The idea is to allow marketers to create additional products from their existing digital products, by creating audio CD’s and DVD’s. Not only does this allow more sales revenue to be generated, but it will open up the opportunity to market your products on Amazon and eBay, (where it isn’t possible to sell digital products).

How can this work?

It is possible to use a digital manufacturing company called Kunaki that builds retail quality CD’s and DVD’s (with a bar code & wrapped in cellophane). Their
Software allows you to design and configure artwork for your case, disc, inserts, cover art and contents.

• There are No setup charges minimum orders, commitments, or contracts.

• Orders are drop-shipped to any address.

• Just-in-time production means risk-free, zero warehousing costs.

So what’s the problem?

Kunaki solves the problem of to manufacture and drop ship any orders you receive, but it relies on the seller manually submitting orders to Kunaki.

What have I developed?

I have developed a web service that associates products sold through Papal, eBay and 1ShoppingCart with the product that you have uploaded to your Kunaki account.

Using my software will automate the process of transmitting orders from your website to Kunaki who will fulfil the order for you.

At the moment I’m running some final tests and developing instructions on how to use the software.

Whilst this software will be a subscription service,
I would like to offer free access to the software in return for testimonials and feedback.

I’m going to limit this access, so if you want to create your own physical products and
have customer orders drop shipped by Kunaki, please add a comment asking for the service.
