Aug. 31, 2009 - PRLog -- Greg Steinaker, Founder and C.E.O. of Universal Bancorp provides some thoughtful insight on how we make money. For additional information please contact Berkshire Calloway at: 877-877-8860 or email: greg.s@berkshirecalloway.com, support@berkshirecalloway.com .

There are only four ways to make money. Understanding each of them will give you an idea of what you should do to start creating profits for your life (instead of just working for wages). Here they are:

A. Investing. No question about it. Real estate, gold, stocks, etc. are proven ways to make money. The obvious challenge is that you have to already have acquired some money and it's a highly intensive route. The investment-graveyard is full of people who operated on too little information. Most people add this as a 2nd or 3rd income stream which is highly recommended.

B. Sell A Skill. To me, this seems the least attractive although quite a lot of people do it. The biggest issue is that you usually have to be the one to roll up and do the job yourself. And when you're selling your time....well, there's always a limit to how much money you can earn because you've only got 24 hours in a day.

The upside is that most people do such shoddy work that -- if you're good at what you do and you come from a place of "excellence" -- then you can charge a heck of a lot of money to do something someone else doesn't want to do. This is why I've given my lawn man three raises in the last year and he deserves every penny of it.

But, in the end, the 24-hour day is the Great Equalizer. So if you're going to sell your time, charge a lot for it. You can't get it back.

C. Sell information. Ah, this is my favorite. We live in an information age. Pick any topic under the sun and there's no shortage of people who want to know how to do it. So, if you know how to do something, then you can share that information with others.

The great part about selling information is that it can be imparted in so many ways. You can offer CDs, DVDs, MP3s, study guides, workbooks, e-books, hardback books, paperback books, personal coaching, tutoring, video clips, seminars, workshops, consulting....you name it.

And the REAL beauty here is that you don't get paid for how hard you work; you're getting paid for how much profit margin you build into your pricing. And since your pricing is always based on "value", there's no limit to how much you can earn.

And knowledge is incredibly valuable.

If I know how to show someone how to earn $250,000 in the next 12 months even if they have no experience in business.....well, that's something valuable to know.

And when I offer to teach that for a tiny fraction of what they can earn, there's no shortage of people who are lined up to work with me.

Why? Because I'm the guy who "knows how".

So, selling information is powerful. And it's my favorite way to earn money. All it takes is the confidence in yourself to realize that you know SOMETHING that someone else wants to know. I know one lady who has made a fortune as a knitter! You read that right: knitting! She's a world-class knitter and she's produced tons of books and resources to show other people how to knit beautiful designs. She turned a hobby into an enterprise. Cha-ching!

D. Sell A Product. This is the old standby. The cool thing about selling a product is that there's no limit to how many you can sell. Once you've got a successful product in the marketplace, you can just keep selling it over and over to whoever shows up. And, just like with information, your earnings are based on profit margin...not on how "hard" you work.

The trick to becoming wealthy with a product is that it depends on being UNIQUE. If you're selling the same widget that everyone else is selling, then it's going to boil down to who's closest to the customer and who's got a unique selling proposition. If you're like everyone else, it'll be tricky.

But, it's not that hard to market something unique. One of the most common ways is to get involved in a business where someone else takes care of product development and let them pay you for finding customers. My wife got involved in a drop-ship business 3 1/2 years ago where she could sell high-profit-margin products to people who wanted them....and she didn't have to stock the products or warehouse them.

Best of all the customers paid her directly and she just placed a wholesale order with the fulfillment house. Think about that! She didn't even place the order with the fulfillment house until she had already received the customer's money. They sent her X amount of dollars....and she kept 67% of the money and placed an order with the company and they tool care of the rest. All of the inventory, all of the customer service and support, I watched as she was free to spend 100% of her time on business development.

Heck, they even did the customer service for her. She was just the person who made the product available to the public.

Conclusion: Making money is a piece of cake. It's a game. And you can get in the game at any time. There's plenty of room for new players.

Wanna play?

After seeing what my wife did, I dissolved my mortgage banking corporation which I had owned for 18 years, and went into the Personal and Leadership Development Industry. Now, I did not just do this blindly. I did this after finding a wholesale company that was nearly duplicate to that with which m was connected at the hip with. Looking back in retrospect, I wish I would have located this wholesale company 10 years earlier. I would have saved myself the headaches of; meeting payroll, accounting, managing personnel, hiring (and firing) employees, working 80+ hours per week. Sure I was making good money, but I was killing myself.

Well....other than the deposit slips. . . .

So, why aren't you already rich?

Chances are good that you probably aren't rich yet. Do you want to know why? There is an answer. And I'll share it with you. But, first, let me offer you some related questions:

1. Why do people NOT drink 8 glasses of water a day when they know it's good for them?
2. Why do people eat at McDonald's when they know it’s bad for rhwm?
3. Why do people smoke cigarettes even though they know it causes disease and death?
4. Why do people NOT set aside some of their money for investing even though they know all wealthy people do?

The answer: small errors in judgment compounded over time. Or, to put it another way, they know that the short-term payoff is going to be small so they're not motivated to do it.



How can you apply this to your business and your life today?
