Well, no one will ever accuse me of having nothing to say. I don't post much to my Warrior Forum blog, but one, it's nice to have a soapbox. It's almost like I can be alone with my thoughts here. According to the stats I just looked at, no one looks at my WF blog anyway.
Maybe I should put it in my sig file?
Actually, I finally took a look at the blog options tonight, because I was running out of room in my sig file, and was looking for a place to put more links.
Of course, if no one ever looks at, I don't know how much good it would do, unless, I just pointed my sig here and let the blog do the rest of the work for me.
A thought brews...
But I digress, I'm definitely an Internet Marketing Addict. I get a rush from waking up in the morning and finding money in my Paypal account. My 3 year journey this year found me at the road to decision.
It was time to create an actionable plan to use the internet to create passive streams of income. I drilled down to hardcore statistics, ran a few tests, and I have a solid plan make it all happen. Even if it is $7.00 at a time.

14 Days Into The 30 Day Button Challenge- Results
Posted 11-16-2011 at 12:20 PM by DanielleS
This has definitely been an 'interesting' several weeks. I've been doing the 30 Day Buy Button Challenge, I've been promoting some Amazon Ads, I've been active on this blog and now, even more Skype groups, I've been documenting just about everything I've been doing, and the result I am getting, and I've been doing freelance writing again.
I'm still fatigued from, the 'cashflow' has been at a minimum. When I got home from the hospital and had to take it 'easy', I knew that 'back to basics' was my best bet for keeping my head above water, which is one of the reasons I decided to take part in the Challenge, and which is why I went back to where I started. Freelance writing.
I have some good people in my network who don't work for peanuts, and who actually command reasonable enough prices for their writing, to still be able to afford to sub contract out to me at fair and reasonable prices too. After taking an order for an article that the client wanted 'that night', effectively keeping me up until 4:30 in the morning, the next day the client sent a 'format.'
Not a big deal, I figured, I'll just add subheads and move stuff around. But then, the client sent another set of instructions a little while later, that started with 'state the problem, then the causes of the problem,' etc, etc. The problem was, that the assignment that was given to me was to write about the 'solution' the client was pitching, which is a solution for any number of things. When I asked 'specifically what problem does the client want?' I was told 'no specific problem.' Well… the instructions start with state the problem and it's causes… it's pretty difficult to do that without any specific problem.
I told my friend who was subbing it to me that I didn't think I could write for this client, and said 'don't pay me for it. I'll just sell it.'
She was fine with that, and now I had this 1,000 + word article… not enough content to even make a PLR pack out of, and with $.88 in my PayPal account, my ATM card MIA, and a car that just didn't want to start today… I really didn't want to post it to Associated Content or Constant Content and have to wait for sales.
ASSETS DON"T DIE… THEY GET LEVERAGED
So I went to my network. I posted in the various channels that I wanted to know if anyone had a site in the niche I had the article for, and I contacted the people who I know to buy and sell PLR. One of my PLR friends responded to a PM first, and she decided to create a site on the subject right then, so I told her I had this article and was exactly $12.00 short of a bill that HAD to be paid today, and asked her if she wanted to buy it for $12.00. She jumped on it, sent me a PayPal, and I sent her the article.
Then , another friend, responded in one of the channels that she did in fact have a site in that niche. I was just about to tell her I had already sold the article when my husband said "I have 5 videos for that too!" So I told this friend about the videos, and offered them to her, and got them sold as well.
Freelance video and PLR videos are something Shane and I have talked about for a year....
So even though I did not get the 'y' result of getting paid for the article by that client, I didn't just ditch it and let it sit on my hard drive, or worse, my recycle bin, just because it wasn't what the client didn't know she didn't want!
I took that asset and leveraged it in other ways to get 'a, b, and c' results. "C" being the new Content Solutions blog I decided to set up today for freelance work, PLR content, and for something to with the 'oops' articles like the one that started all this. I even decided to create a 'signature' article service for physical product affiliates!
