Here you find our new strategy on how you can earn an additional income as a bookseller, bookshop- or magazine shop owner.
Short explanation video: 02:57 minutes
Hi, I’m Peter Ruebsamen
Born in 1965, grown up in Germany and since 1990 I have been working in sales and marketing for various industries.
After a 1 year bicycle trip around the world from Germany to Australia I founded my first company in 1999. Since 2002 I have advised several franchise concepts in system building and supported them in active sales and marketing for years.
In 2016, I was awarded the title of Top Consultant in the Management category by the former German President Christian Wulf as patron of the event in cooperation with Contest Unternehmensberatung GmbH at the German Medium-Sized Business Summit in Essen.
Several hundred presentations with several thousand guests took part in my events.
In the last few years I have published several marketing books and online courses on various topics and for different target groups.
Based on all these activities and the experience gained in marketing, I have developed a concept that is perfectly suited to offer bookstores a very good additional source of income.
I not only provide you with a unique strategy with highest commission rates, but also products in German and in English, so that you can earn additional money in the future with every book in German or English, which you sell in your bookstore.
My goal is to make you even more successful. Let us start together into a successful future. I am looking forward to a long-term partnership with you, because I too will only earn money if you are successful with my concept.
Extract of my book publications
Here you can find a small selection of my various book publications of the last years.
All books have approx. 400 pages and provide a clear added value for the respective target group.
Become a partner of our successful concept for booksellers and bookstores
- We pay you a unique 70% commission for the successful recommendation of our flagship courses, which are available in both German and English and can sometimes cost several hundred euros.
- Ideal for booksellers and bookshops with regular book sales on site
- The final target groups are all book buyers from the most diverse target groups
- No purchase commitments of any products
- Sensational 365 days cookie runtime. So you also profit from upsells up to one year
- Only 3 simple steps necessary
- Large selection of finished advertising media available
- Product portfolio to be further expanded in the coming months
- Depending on the exchange rate several hundred dollars / Euro per recommendation possible
- Unlimited income opportunities (no upper limit)
- You have nothing to do with storage, shipping or invoicing. We take over this completely for you
- All you have to do is promote our Flagship Online courses through your personalized affiliate link with the appropriate advertising media and receive the commissions on your account
- Simply place an advertising medium (flyer, business card postcard, etc.) in the respective books you sell on site. (Costs depending on the number of copies only about 0.02 Cent per advertising medium)
- So if you still have space on your account, you should start now
- Because you sell new books every day anyway, you don't have to do much. Just put the prepared advertising media into the books you sell
- With just one successful recommendation you usually have the annual fee already paid out
- We will also show you in the course where you can find other interesting products for mediation, where you can also get up to 50 % commission for various target groups
- You can earn more with each recommendation than with the actual normal book sale
- Even if only one reader per week buys a course from us, this can mean several thousand euros extra per year for you
- As it is also partly about subscriptions, you can also build up a passive income here. As long as the customer remains a member, you will receive your commissions year after year.
How can I participate or what do I have to do?
Step 1:
Simply order the course, become a member and get access to our
"VIP mediation program" by us. (Normally within 48 hours)
Step 2:
Just follow our instructions and create your own personalized affiliate links and promotional materials. Everything is explained in videos (even for beginners).
Step 3:
Simply add and promote our courses with flyers in your sold books via your personalized affiliate link and receive money in your account when anybody is buying our courses. That's it!
Certificate of completion after course (Example)
At the end of the course you will receive a certificate of completion, which you can use in future as proof of your qualifications, also for job interviews.
This will set you apart from many other bookstore employes who have not taken this course. Therefore, you can also offer another bookstore operator a significant added value and possibly charge a few euros or dollars more.
Overview of the courses you can market in German & English (you get 70%)
Why it works
Basically, most of the work in Marketing & Sales is psychology. But let us look at the facts.
If someone buys a book or wants to get information, he has different possibilities:
- E-Book (mostly under $10)
- Paperback (about $5 - 20)
- Hardcover (about $15 - 40)
- Audio book (approx. $15 - 40)
- Online courses (sometimes several hundred euros)
Whether it is justified or not, it is possible to achieve significantly higher prices for online courses than for most other forms of publishing. As a bookseller, you as a bookseller may have a commission of +/- $5 - 20 on a book. Some of our flagship online courses cost several hundred dollars and with a single recommendation you have the possibility to earn several hundred dollars plus upsell possibilities with a 70% commission.
And now to 2 - 3 short strategy examples:
Can you imagine that someone who buys a book about yoga would also like to know how to earn good money as a yoga teacher? Or someone who buys a book about travelling would like to know how to travel the world permanently and earn more money every month than they need to travel? Or that someone who buys a book about art or painting would like to know how he can earn money with his painted pictures? Etc.
These were only a few examples. And for all these examples and much more, we have the right courses. All you have to do is to insert them into the respective books via a flyer or business card (depending on the number of copies only about 0,01 - 0,03 dollars per advertising medium) and if then someone buys our course, you will get the commissions (70%). In case of annual memberships also partly over several years (passive income for you).
And so you have not only earned 5 or 10 dollars on a book, but also the possibility to earn several hundred dollars more afterwards.

Over 100 finished advertising banners
You get access to over 100 different advertising banners for the internet in all common sizes and also for all concepts. You can use these to advertise not only in your books.
<<< Here on the left you see only a small selection.
In addition, all banners are also available in English and German, so that you can also place advertising in these two languages worldwide.
Further advantages of our program
- With 70% commission, we are probably among those with the highest payouts
- Cookie runtime 365 days. Many others only offer 30, 90 or 180 days and you will quickly lose some commission there. For all products that a customer buys within 365 days you will be credited the commission
- Most other course providers often only offer courses in one language and therefore you are limited to this market. Our courses are available in German and English and therefore you can (incl. second language) serve a market that is much larger worldwide.
- With annual memberships of customers you can also receive annual commission payments and thus a passive income.
Poster and postcards, or flyer templates to print
You will not only be provided with the most common banners for advertising on the Internet pages, as shown above as an example.
No. You also get a larger selection of finished posters, flyers or postcard formats as samples available for download.
And this for the most diverse concepts and also in German and in English.
You will then have to exchange your personalized QR code and your affiliate link.
You will be shown in the lessons how to do this easily.
No matter if you want to print posters in DINA 4 or DINA2 and use them for window displays, outdoor displays, etc., or just want to place the flyers in the books.
< < < < < < Here you see only a small selection!
So just place advertising media and if someone orders via your personalized domain or QR code, you will receive the commission.
Of course you are free to create your own designs.
Also templates for social media available
Not only the normal advertising banners for the Internet and poster and flyer templates for printing are prepared, but also finished advertising templates in German and English for Instagram & Co. are already prepared for you.
Here you see only a small selection of the templates.
Chance / risk ratio
Due to the high commission rates of 70%, you will have your annual fee (depending on the course price) already after 1 - 2 recommendations.
Because of the many different target groups you can advertise, this should not be a problem even for influencers with few followers, especially since the application can not only be realized via Instagram.
If you don't do it at all, you have risked the amount for an annual membership, which you can also write off for tax purposes. If you follow our recommendations, you will have a good additional income every year.
FAQ
For whom is this course suitable?
- The course is suitable for all bookstores and booksellers who want to achieve a good additional income by advertising our courses and by inserting personalized advertising media in the books sold.
- Also suitable for beginners without previous knowledge of online marketing
- Super suitable for all those who are already involved in online marketing and are looking for high value courses
- Companies that have changing audiences and have space for advertising space on toilets, in the entrance or smoking area, in the elevator, etc.
What do I get after registration?
You will get immediate access to our course, where I will explain everything step by step. You will also receive a lot of information on how to win suitable customers for our online courses worldwide, and not only through advertising in the books sold.
In these course lessons you will also get a detailed description of how to get your personalized affiliate link and how you should use it to generate suitable advertising media with which you can win customers permanently.
When can I start making money with it?
After you have registered, we will usually activate your account for the commissions within 2 working days, so that you can then get started immediately with your personalized affiliate links and earn money.
When does the course start and end?
Once you have signed up, you will have access to the course. Work at your own pace - there is no time limit to finish the course. However, you can usually complete everything within one day. The course itself takes about 4 hours plus various templates. The course is in English.
How long do you have access to the course?
You have access to the course during your entire membership. If you cancel your membership at any time, for whatever reason, you will also lose access to the course and to our referral program and will not be able to receive any further commission payments.
Will you get access to the entire course at once?
Yes, all lessons of the course are available after enrollment. Only the affiliate program activation can take up to 48 hours.
What equipment/tools are required to complete the course?
Access to a computer, an email account, internet access and a Paypal account to receive commission payments.
How and when will I receive my commission payments?
Commissions are paid via PayPal on the first business day of each month with a one month delay. For example, all purchases made between March 1st and March 31st will be paid out to you in May.
Why should I pay for this affiliate program when some others are offered for free?
- First of all, I don't want to get enrolled by people who want to have everything for free and then never get active. It has been proven that those who have invested something once also become much more active and successful.
- Furthermore, with most of the others you will usually not receive 70% commission. Many pay only 10 - max. 50 %. And you can already get the annual fee out of it with a single recommendation.
- This is more than just an affilate program. Here you get complete strategies for several different target groups.
- Furthermore, most of the other providers usually offer their courses in German or English only. With us the courses are all in German and also in English and can therefore serve a much larger market.
- The membership also keeps my database clean and automatically eliminates various people who are not active.
- I only want to work with people who are looking for success themselves.
- Customers who make more than $10,000 in sales per calendar year will also receive the annual membership for the coming year for free.
Is it allowed to buy your own courses through your own affiliate link and get commission for it?
NO. This is not allowed and we will permanently block anyone who does so from our referral program IMMEDIATELY.
Tax handling
This is a self-employed activity for which you should register a business. You are responsible for the taxation of the income. However, as a bookseller or bookstore operator you have usually already registered a business.
Which advertising measures are permitted for customer acquisition.
Everything that is legally permissible. Everything that is not legally permissible is also prohibited. In case of disregard of advertising guidelines or violations of the law, we will also permanently dissolve the affiliate partnership. This also applies to any spam advertising that is prohibited.
You are obliged to buy the courses you want to recommend yourself.
No. The purchase of individual courses is your own decision and not dependent on becoming active as a recommender and earning money. Only the membership to this course is a basic requirement to receive commissions.
Are affiliate programs legal and allowed?
YES. This is just a normal referral program where we do not give out a backpack or towel as a thank you, but cash. We also do not have a structure distribution here, as we only pay out up to a direct level.
How is it possible to pay out 70% commissions?
With our online courses, we do not have a physical product here, such as a book, which does not require any additional production or manufacturing costs and does not have to be physically shipped. It is all automated and delivered by email. Therefore we do not have any storage or other personnel that we have to pay. Apart from various software, transaction and accounting costs, our costs are kept within reasonable limits and can therefore pass these extremely high commission rates on to you.
Can I participate in this program even if I don't have a bookstore or bookstore?
Yes, theoretically anyone aged 18 or older can participate in this program if they want to earn money from home or anywhere else in the world. Also as an influencer, blogger, podcaster, etc. you will get everything you need to be successful. Only the type of advertising measures and customer approach will change.
What is the difference to the course / program "Your finished business"?
There is no difference except the commission and the fee for the annual membership. Here you have 70 % commission and with the finished business only 60 % and here the annual membership is about 50 $ higher, which you can get out again by 2 more customers depending on the course. So for customers who have walk-in customers (such as booksellers or bookstores) or already have lists for our target groups and want to earn real money, we recommend this course here with the higher commissions.
What is the risk?
If you do not manage to win a single partner for one of our courses, you will have lost an annual amount which you can write off against tax. However, if you follow our recommendations in the course, this cannot normally happen. Already in only one new client you can usually recover the annual fee.
How long is the contract period?
You can cancel the course annually with 30 days' notice to the end of the contract.
