The $ix-Figure Profit Center Blueprint

A proven step-by-step system

(Note: If you are looking for a get rich quick scheme or some easy “side-hustle”, this program is not for you. Please move on to a different site or go search YouTube.)

Hi, my name is Steve Strauss. I have been creating businesses and profit centers online since the dawn of the Internet and was the lead small business columnist for USA TODAY for 20 years. These days, I am the small business columnist at Inc. 

I am also the author of one of the best selling small business books of all time, The Small Business Bible, and have been the small business spokesperson for everyone from Microsoft and FedEx to Bank of America and Visa. 

I tell you all this, not to impress you, but to impress upon you that what I am about to share is the real deal.


I Love Profit Centers (and You Should Too!)

What is a profit center you ask?

It is, simply, a revenue stream, an income generator, a way of making money. 

It could be a website, an Amazon store, online coaching, a course like this one, a podcast, content creation, an e-commerce shop, drop-shipping, etc.

I especially like online profit centers as they are easier to create, less expensive, faster, with less risk, and have best upside potential.

Over the years, I have created close to a dozen profit centers. 

  • My website TheSelfEmployed was so successful that I sold it to a company associated with Mark Cuban (Websites can be a great profit center!)

  • My team and I created and ran the small business website for Allstate. We also created a video series for PayPal, produced a commercial for Johnson & Johnson, had a 5-year content contract with Microsoft . . .

  • Just this week, a partnership with SAP Concur came to fruition as we concurrently dropped this e-book my team and I produced (Content Creation is also a GREAT profit center!):

  • I am regularly asked to create other types of content for partners like Microsoft, Bank of America, PayPal, and Visa.



I Sold My Last Online Profit Center For a Sweet Six-Figure Sum

The first profit center I ever made was with my old law firm (back when I still practiced law.) No, not everyone has been a homerun, but a few have, and most were doubles and triples. 

I sold my last online profit center for a sweet six-figure sum. 

That was a homerun.

If you have never created an online profit center or revenue stream before, it can seem overwhelming.

  • Where do I start?

  • How do I monetize it?

  • How do I get customers and clicks?

  • What if it doesn’t work?

But what if it does work?

Wow! Let me tell you, it’s awesome. Once you have cracked the code, you will learn what I have learned:

  • Making money online is not that hard, and is a blast

  • Making money while you sleep is even better

  • And doing something you love is even better

  • Your own online profit center (or centers!) frees you up financially, frees up your time, and it gives you a sense of satisfaction that is unlike anything else.

You may have noticed that I said, “once you crack the code.” That is the secret, and the challenge. 

You don’t have to crack the code.

I did it for you. 

I made the mistakes so you don’t have to.

I created my Blueprint so you don’t have to figure it out yourself.

What I promise is that The 6-Figure Profit Center Blueprint is a proven, simple, viable, step-by-step Blueprint that takes the guesswork out of it. It works. 

In fact, so sure are we that if you test it an decide FOR ANY REASON that it's not for you, you get 100% of your money back THAT DAY. Period.

I am taking all the risk out of this because I know you will not just like it, but use it and love it.

Yes, there are hundreds, nay thousands of folks out there who promise they will help you create a “side-hustle.” 

This is not that.

What this is is the real deal. 

If you are ready to create a real profit-making machine, I promise that I, and the world-class experts I have brought in to help you, (see below), will show you the way.


Profit Centers in Real Life

Anders Boulanger was a successful magician who could command a room, but who had a problem. Being a solopreneur meant he only made money when he had a gig. Andres wanted something bigger, better. So he did what I suggest and created an online profit center.

Anders needed something better. Bigger.

So he created his own online profit center, Engagify. Engagify teaches what Anders knows bet - how to engage an audience. And it’s not just Anders doing it now. Online, he and his team make Big Bucks coaching salespeople, speakers, even corporate managers, how to be more effective, more, well, engaging. (Anders shares his secrets of how he created his coaching-type of profit centers in Module 4 in our video interview!)

Who Am I To Teach You How To Create Profit Centers (Or, Even Better, Multiple Profit Centers?

While I finally found my niche creating content online, it was not always so.

I was not a great law student, but I interview well and got a great job after law school.

That I was fired from.

I then started my own law firm that made a profit the very first month.

But it almost went out of business later that year (until I created a second profit center for that business.)

That was a “light bulb” moment. More profit centers = more profit. And one thing I have learned is that, like me at that time, most small business people have only one or two profit centers.

Big mistake, that.

I then left the law and started making buckets of money during the glory days of the Dotcom era, circa 2000.

That was a blast, until the Dotcom crash.

But by this time I had learned my lesson and had figured out how to create Multiple Profit Centers (MPCs.) 

I love this concept so much that I have written about it in several of my books, in my speeches, and now, here, to you.

Here’s what I want you to know: Creating an online profit center (or two or three) is the secret to

⦁    Having a successful business
⦁    With less stress
⦁    And having a lot more time, while
⦁    Making a consistent 6-figure income

Doesn't that sound great?

Profit Centers in Real Life

Tara Reed is a very talented artist. But Tara had a problem too. She had no desire to be what is commonly referred to as a “starving artist.” Tara needed profit centers, online profit centers.

So that is what she did. She took a chance on herself and created some additional profit centers.

These days, Tara now has at least three different online profit centers. Her Etsy store, where she sells her designs and supplies to other artists is very popular. Her online tutorials teach non-artists how to create their own designs. And get this one: Tara licenses her designs to CORPORATE CLIENTS who use them  on mugs, blankets, fabric, and more. (Tara shares her secrets of how she created her profit centers in Module 4 in our video interview!)

The 3-Step Profit Center Blueprint

I have distilled everything I know into a simple 3-step system. I call it my 6-Figure Profit Center Blueprint, because that is what it is. It is a blueprint for creating a lasting profit-making money machine.

Step 1: Decide on What Type of Profit Center You is Best for You

Do the many, many options out there seem overwhelming? Fear not. This is where your pal Steve comes it.

What I realized is that there really are only three ways to make money online
: You can

⦁    Sell physical products (on Amazon, eBay, your own website, affiliates)
⦁    Sell digital products and advertising (like ebooks, websites, templates, photos, videos)
⦁    Sell your expertise (courses like this one, webinars, podcasting, consulting)

My goal, my commitment, was to make this as simple and easy as possible for you. So that's what I did. As you go through Module 1, you’ll discover

⦁    Which type of profit center makes the most sense for you
⦁    The roadmap to your first $100,000
⦁    The secret to creating products that are practically 100% profit
⦁    The simple workaround that allows you to get up and running FAST

Step 2. Choose a Monetization Strategy

Just like I boiled down the essence of what you can sell online in Step 1, I am doing the same thing for you here in Step 2.

Don’t get confused by all of the myriad of choices that are before you when starting an online endeavor. 

Instead, let me show you the Blueprint for the four basic monetization options. That's it. There really are only four.  

Let’s make this easy, not difficult!

Step 3 – Get Customers to Find You

There are two ways to get customers online. You find them or they find you.

One thing I learned long ago is that it is far better, and way more lucrative, if they find you. In this module you discover how.

Once you learn these secrets, you will be unstoppable. You will have created an income generating monster.

In this module, I will reveal:

  • How to make Google your personal money-making assistant
  • Brand secrets that make your online profit center a money magnet
  • How to create an ad that generates nothing but lead after lead after lead
  • How to generate word-of-click, the digital version of word of mouth


And that is only a taste of everything waiting for you.

Oh, by the way, did I mention that there is

100% ZERO RISK?

I want you to test drive this system to see for yourself. 

You will only know if it's for you if you decide you take a chance on yourself (and, yes, on me) and sign up.

But even there, I created a way to have the risk be 100% on me and zero on you.

Here's how: 

The course begins a week after you register, to allow for introductory materials to be received and reviewed. It is a self-directed, go at your own pace course. Once you try it you will quickly see if this program is right for you or not. If you don't like it, for whatever reason, for any reason, for no reason, I want you to contact me personally at [email protected] and I will refund you 100% of your money that day. See? No risk! 

Why? Because yes, of course I believe in what I do and create, but more, I want you to see for yourself. I am committed to showing you exactly how you can take your life, work, and career to another level, a better level, an easier level. 

And I know that my best chance of doing that is by making it as easy as possible for you to check it out. So...

With my 100% money back, 100% satisfaction, 100% any time, 100% guarantee, the risk is 100% on me, and 0% on you.

Isn't It Time For Something MORE?

Look, if you are still reading this (and thank you if you are!), I think we can agree that you want to do this and just need a little more reassurance.

What I can tell you is that I love helping entrepreneurs, new entrepreneurs especially, start and grow their online ventures.

I want to help you.

  • I have brought in the best experts I know

  • I have made this as simple and easy as I can

  • I have taken all of the risk out of it

But I can only help you if you decide to take a bet on yourself, if you see that this is not just a great opportunity, but that actually, it is an opportunity you cannot afford to pass up.

You see that, don't you?

You are here for a reason. 

I hope I get the chance to help you fulfill your dream. 

If I get to do that, then I am fulfilling mine.

See you soon, I hope!
