It’s completely possible to build an autopilot profit system which generates autopilot commissions for you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. When I first looked to the internet to learn how to do this, I looked at creating an autopilot ebook sales page. An ebook is a great way to explain how to generate autopilot profits from the internet. With an ebook, you set up a page which sells the ebook and allows you to automate the delivery of the book once the customer has completed checkout.
Here’s what the sales page looks like:
Autopilot Profit
Once someone purchases the book, they pay over the internet and get access to the pdf file which they can download. It’s pretty simple to set up and there’s virtually no costs involved! No delivery costs and no postage or handling costs. The book is in pdf format so there’s not even any printing costs. All profit – autopilot profit!
On the surface this seems like a great plan. But when I attempted to do this with my own ebooks, I failed miserably! Why? Simply because I didn’t know how to market my ebooks. I didn’t even know if there was a audience who wanted to buy my ebooks! The setup process of a product like this is the simplest part of the process. But getting people to a website page like this, and more importantly getting them to buy is much more difficult.
I later realised that there’s a better way to generate autopilot profits online through a business model known as affiliate marketing.
Autopilot Profit – What Is Affiliate Marketing?
Affiliate marketing is a form of referral marketing where the affiliate can refer customers to other people’s products in exchange for a commission. With some products you can even earn up to 50-100% of the sale value!
Affiliate marketing is a bit like recommending a restaurant to a friend. Only with an affiliate product, you can earn a commission if your friend becomes a customer at the restaurant.
How does affiliate marketing relate to autopilot profits? Although affiliate marketing does take some time to learn, eventually, you can use automation and a global reach to scale up businesses to bring in sales around the clock.
Anyone can learn affiliate marketing from a laptop from anywhere in the world with an internet connection. The key to generating autopilot profit with affiliate marketing is choosing the right products and learning a good marketing strategy which you can stick at for the long term.
Best Affiliate Products For Autopilot Profit
Some of the best affiliate products for autopilot profit are those which offer recurring income from memberships. With a membership affiliate program you can keep earning an income from sales you’ve made previously.
High ticket affiliate programs are also useful because they allow you to earn larger amounts and this means using paid marketing is more accessible. Ideally use a program which rewards you again and again through:
- Recurring income products
- A range of up-sells you can benefit from
- A built in sales team
- Multi-tier sales – earn commissions based on your referral’s sales
- High value digital products

Marketing Your Sales Funnel
With a product range like the one described above, you can use paid marketing to test and measure your funnel. As you learn marketing, you’ll start to see which adverts work well and which don’t. Over time, you’ll eventually be able to run an advert and see whether it’s profitable from your numbers.
Once you’re in this position, you’ll be able to slowly increase your advertising budget and scale up to reach more people.
For example, if an advert costs $100 and makes $200 in sales, you know you’re in a good position to start scaling your campaign. If you run an advert and spend $100 but make nothing, then you know not to scale up!
Cut the adverts which don’t work and concentrate on those which do!
Other Marketing Strategies
If you don’t have a sales funnel which offers high ticket recurring commission items, you are more limited in your marketing strategies. But you can still operate what can be a largely automated online business. Ideally at least use recurring commission programs because they’ll give you more bang for your buck! Don’t use cheap, physical products which only pay 1-11% commissions! Use digital or software products which pay larger commissions and recurring commissions. That way your efforts will generate more income.
One of my favourite marketing strategies is blogging. This article alone can’t bring thousands of visitors to the products which I recommend on my website. But by making a habit out of creating content, whether video or blogging, over time this can have a huge impact due to the compounding effect! One article might bring in a customer or two over several months. But a thousand articles can have a larger effect.
Email Marketing
Email marketing is a must for anyone who wants to create autopilot profits through affiliate marketing. A blog or an advert can only go so far in making sales. Take this blog post for example. Most people who land on this post will click away within the first 10 minutes. Most will never return again.
From a website, you only have a small window of opportunity to get someone to purchase your product or service. But once they subscribe to your email list, you can extend this time period to months, years and even decades. I still get people who have signed on to my list purchase years after they have signed up.
In conjunction with paid marketing, a high ticket sales funnel and email marketing, you can have the best form of autopilot profit generating system available today!
