Edition #91 – 10/24/2006

Even if you’re not familiar with Jeff Alderson, you’ve likely heard of some of his products.

AdWords Analyzer, Traffic Equalizer, Article Equalizer, Press Equalizer, and RSS Equalizer are just SOME of his successful programs to hit the internet marketing world in recent history.

In addition to using some of his products, I have personally watched his marketing business with keen interest over the past couple of years.

Why have I been watching him?

No I’m not a cyber-stalker.

It’s because I’m interested in HOW he has built his online empire.

He is a great example of someone who entered this industry with virtually NO online business experience, and created a thriving and hugely profitable enterprise from SCRATCH.

And here’s another thing I love about his story. He’s NOT in any way a guru, and he doesn’t even do a marketing newsletter.

Prior to getting into the internet business, Jeff was a professional Disk Jockey (I just realized he has that in common with Joel Comm, LOL). He entered the online world by setting up a website for DJ’s, and writing an ebook of DJ success secrets.

Along with his website came a newfound interest in getting web traffic, and obtaining search engine rankings. That interest turned into a passion for SEO and internet marketing, which then evolved into software development to create tools that would help himself and others.

He is PROOF that someone can come out of nowhere and create an amazing business in very little time.

One of the things that has particularly impressed me about his business has been his ability to BRAND himself, even though I’ve never seen a picture of him on the web, and most of his customers don’t know anything about him.

He’s achieved such good recognition by naming most of his products “Equalizers”, marketing them in similar ways (mostly on ClickBank), and branding them under his umbrella company name: Xybercode.

This goes to show that you don’t have to go the “guru” route to make a name for yourself in the internet marketing community.

Now after creating dozens of successful scripts and software programs, Jeff is making a move that I wouldn’t have predicted.

Well, not exactly anyway. I’ve always thought that once he got enough products going, that he might sell all of Xybercode to a bigger software company. It would seem to make sense, and maybe he’ll still do it someday.

So in essence, I’ve predicted that he’d do something big eventually. I just didn’t think it would be a PUBLIC offering of the rights to his software stockpile. I figured it would be more of a private sale… business-to-business.

But apparently that’s not what he had in mind, because today his is releasing the Xybercode System, which is hands down one of the best private label collections I’ve ever seen.

I guess he’s got a good reason to do it now. With the recent birth of his son, he wants to spend more time with the family. So rather than taking the time to release and market all of these programs that he’s been building, he’s selling them off.

Don’t get me wrong, these aren’t half-baked programs. These are fully developed programs, most of which have not hit the market yet.

In fact, not only are they fully developed, but he’s included fantastic documentation for each of them.

If you like the idea of private label resale rights, but you’re sick of all the low quality junk that keeps getting passed around, this collection is for you.

The quality of the work is superior, and the documentation puts to shame the 1-page user manuals included with most of the “el-cheapo” source code blowouts we see these days.

Watch my 8-minute video as I give a brief overview of the package and show you first hand how nicely put together it is…

The collection was so big I had to stand on a chair to take this picture.

This is really a lot different than your typical “business in a box” that we see so often these days.

What Jeff is offering, is an unparalleled opportunity to get into the software business with a lot of the work already done for you.

These programs are fully functional and ready to sell or give away as bonuses. But even more important than that, you’ll have the full source code for each of them, and private label rights to turn them into new products.

Let me tell you a great way to make money in this business: INNOVATION.

It’s great if you’re a creative programmer, and you can build your own software programs, but I’ll tell you that innovators can make as much money as inventors.

I’ve personally innovated a few software programs over the past couple of years, and I’ve made a TON of money from those programs. And guess what? I’m not a programmer. All I did was tell a programmer that I wanted a software program or script improved in a certain way, and the rest is history.

But what Jeff is providing is even better than what I started with in those situations. He’s got better code, and better documentation.

You could take any one of these programs and post a project on Elance or Rentacoder. In your bid request, just mention the source code language (Jeff lists each language on the sales page), and explain what you want done.

With the source code and documentation Jeff provides, I’d be willing to bet you could get any of them turned into a new and improved product for $100 or less on one of those sites.

This makes it possible for almost anyone to break into this highly profitable business. It’s a simple fact: people BUY software. If you can provide a new and improved angle to an automated process that people need fulfilled, they will buy it.

I believe some of the scripts would also be suitable for turning into web-based applications. I’ve got friends who have created free membership sites based upon scripts very similar to the ones in this collection. This provides the opportunity to build opt-in lists of tens of thousands of people in a short time by offering a free web-based application.

Okay, as you can tell, I’m pretty excited about the opportunity provided within this package, but what about the potential downside of the software business?

Having been in this business, I can tell you straight up… it’s NOT for everyone.

When it comes to software, there are two big things to be concerned about…

1) Support
2) Updates

First of all, tech support. If you’re selling software, some people will need support. Fortunately, Jeff has already minimized this by providing excellent documentation and user manuals.

Nevertheless, even with a perfect user manual, some people will need help. There are basically two possible solutions for this issue. You can do it yourself, or you can have someone else do it.

If you’re a programmer, and you ENJOY doing tech support, then honestly this should be a no-brainer for you. I’d say stop reading this review right now and go buy the Xybercode System before it sells out.

If you don’t have the technical proficiency, or simply don’t want to do tech support, there’s an easy answer. Get someone else to do it for you. One thing that I’ve done is formed partnerships with programmers. I do the marketing, and they provide the tech support and software updates.

Another option would be to simply outsource it. As you may know, there is extremely low-cost support available from several Asian and European countries, and you can find highly skilled workers pretty easily. And when I say cheap, I mean cheap so don’t let the support issue alone drive you away from the software business.

Not all software programs require updates, but some do, particularly those that rely on external factors that are constantly evolving. An example would be a program that interacts with a website like Google.

Your options for software updates is basically the same as your options for support. You could partner with a programmer and give him/her a cut of the profits, or you could outsource it and get it done cheaply on an as-needed basis.

Because I’ve personally made a lot of money with these type of programs, and because I’ve found Jeff’s to be of excellent quality, I am strongly recommending the Xybercode System.

If you have absolutely no interest in making money selling software and scripts, then you can pass on this opportunity.

But if you DO want to capitalize on this profitable industry, this is as good of an opportunity as I’ve seen. If you’re already selling software, if you want to start now, or if you would like to start sometime in the next 12 months, I recommend getting this package.

It’s not cheap, but the value is tremendous. This package obviously saves you a lot of money (think about how much it would cost to create 37 products from scratch), but it also saves a tremendous amount of time. One thing I’ve learned is that software takes TIME. Whether you’re writing the code yourself, or outsourcing it to a programmer, one of the most frustrating things is the amount of time it can take to bring an idea from conception to the marketplace.

Whether you market the products straight out of the box, or take some time to innovate them into new creations, you’ll be taking a big SHORTCUT by utilizing the huge amount of work that Jeff has already done for you. Instead of months, you can be up and running in days.
