If I needed to make $1,000 by tomorrow... $5,000 by next week... $100,000 this month...

This is what I would do:

Sell Something

Come on, we've all seen the threads!

"How can I make $5,000 by next week?"

"Help!! My diabetic dog needs emergency surgery!!"

I'll readily admit I don't have all the answers... but
the ONLY way I know how to make money really fast
is to SELL SOMETHING.

I don't need cash yesterday, but I still want to make
a ton of money this month. So I'm gonna SELL
SOMETHING. A lotta something

If it were me, I would create a new product and
throw traffic at it every which way I know how
(mostly email marketing, JVs, forum traffic,
recruit customers as affiliates, etc.)

Specifically, I would run a *live training series*
where I just have to write a sales letter, and get
paid up front while delivering the training over
time.

Here are some other things you can sell:

- Any kind of service!! Get cash up front for
writing, copywriting, graphic design, VA services,
transcriptions, voice overs, programming, you
name it.

- Run a 50% off sale on a product you own

- Sell off an asset if you must, like a premium
domain name, website, and/or info product

- Sell stuff on eBay- seriously!

- Sell online consulting services to offline
businesses (you can get a TON of cash up front)

Basically any asset you have now, or anything you
can get paid up front for and deliver over time.

It's foolish to try some of the internet marketing
tactics discussed so often in this forum, like
article marketing, if you need cash up front...
sure they work, but if you need cash now, you
gotta... come on now, say it with me... SELL
SOMETHING!

Now, here's my advice for avoiding the kind of
situation where you need fast cash in the first place:

Build a list of buyers, so you can send out an email
at a moment's notice any time your little heart
desires and make all the money you want without
lifting a finger.

If you focus your time on building assets (like a
database of proven buyers), you can sell all you
want any time you desire.

How do you do that? Of course you gotta...

Sell Something!

Hope this helps

I blame you, you're the one who got me all interested in copywriting and forum sigs

I appreciate it, especially from the freelance writing expert himself.
