RAP Chronicles – Part 2
In Part 2 of the RAP Chronicles I will cover the installation of Rapid Action Profits.
I mentioned in Part 1 that over the past several weeks I’ve been working on a new website to sell several short reports and some back end products. I decided to use my own affiliate program rather than Clickbank for this project. After careful consideration, I selected Rapid Action Profits as the platform for my affiliate program.
Being a visual learner (and what I consider to be a slow reader) I first watched a couple of the Rapid Action Profit Training Videos from Josh Fulfer that show how to install the software. Module 1 and Module 2 of the videos outline very well how to do this. The RAP User Guide that comes with the software is 137 pages and covers everything you need to know to install and use Rapid Action Profits.
There are 7 general steps invol ved in setting up and using the RAP system on your own web host:
- Create a MySQL database (a 5-minute, 3-step process)
- Upload the Admin Panel scripts to your website
- Upload the Product folder to your website
- Run the Install script from the Admin Panel
- Configure your Product settings from the Admin Panel
- Testing your installation
- Modify your Template files to customize for your product(s)
These steps are not difficult and the videos help. However, be sure to follow along in the User Guide as well. There is more detail in the guide that is important to understand as you configure your product settings, which I will cover in Part 3.
Summary: Installing Rapid Action Profits is really a no brainer for anyone familiar with working with an FTP software. Remember, RAP has an excellent help desk, as well as a great support forum if you have questions. Just be patient and follow the instructions. If you run into problems, most likely its not the software or your system, its a mistake that you made!
Stand Firm.
