When you are creating your success blueprint, and the funnel through which people will flow through your business make sure you get payment up front.

It is imperative you get paid before you deliver your products or services. This is relatively easy to do when you are dealing with digital products. It can be more difficult when you are providing services. Although it may be more difficult it is still a must. It will save you time and frustration, and will decrease if not eliminate the ability for being taken advantage of.

On another level try to build in a recurring payment whenever you can. This may be a monthly membership site, or it may mean providing updating services, or regular checkups.

The options for recurring payments, also known as a continuity program are only as limited as your imagination.

Designing a continuity element in your success blueprint will give you ongoing income from one action. That’s a good thing. If you need some internet marketing help, thinking of how to find a recurring element for your plan make sure you find someone who is an expert in this topic. Ryan Diess is great and has just put out some great videos on creating continuity.
