Okay, I know that $300 isn't a lot to many of you, but I have never made more than $300 a week at any job I have ever worked.

A lot of it came from writing (my fingers are gonna fall off), but more and more of my income is coming from passive income - I have 2 reports and an ecourse that I sell on my blogs. The income from those is steadily rising - I am up to about $30 a day ($900 a month! ) from those.

It is so exciting!!!

Hubby is counting the days until he retires. :rolleyes: (He doesn't realize that when he retires from a job, I am going to put him to work for ME! Hehehehehehehehe Okay, he does realize that, but he doesn't know how hard I plan to work him. )

Anyway, just a note of encouragement to newbies - you can do it!!!

    Great job Shay!

    $300 in a day IS a lot of money. Do that everyday and you have almost $110,000! That's a great income!

    Keep up the good work.

      Way to go, Shay. It doesn't happen overnight and it does require work, but it's definitely worth it. Being able to make money without even having to step out of your home - only very few could do this 10 years ago. Now everybody with a computer and Internet can. It still amazes me.

      Awesome work - the most important part of your success is that you are focused on "passive" income. By working once generating the reports and ecourses (sky's the limit to expand your info product portfolio), you can leverage that over and over again many times for months and even years to come.

      If everyone took 1-week out of their current schedule to develop an info product (report, ecourse, checklist, presentation, resource guide, manual, home study course, etc...) - putting aside all of the "chase-after-me" tactics that seem to capture everyone's attention - they would find exactly what you have, that selling your own products is a business model that really works.

      Awesome Job!

    Your first questions.
    Your first few dollars a day.
    And now a $300 day.

    If everyone took on board all the information here and then used it
    (took action) like you have then am sure everyone would be making money

    Keep us updated, am sure you'll be back with your first $1,000 day in the

    Thank you so much, Paul.

    I can remember when I first came here a few months ago- reading this board was like reading Russian - PLR, MRR, SEO, PPC....I was so confused. :confused:

    I asked so many questions, and I had the help of numerous patient veterans that gave me answers.

    I hope that I can help others, too.

    The funny thing is - I first started working online in the hopes that I could make some extra Christmas money. Now it is a full-time income.

    I love this forum.

          Shay,

          You deserve all of the praise you've gotten. You RADIATE goodness and it resonates with people. Look and see!

          Everyone is extremely proud of you. You exemplify so many traits that newbies would do well to emulate -- kindness, sincerity, willingness to apply yourself and be open to the good advice you receive.

          You just hit the six figure a year income mark if you can make it happen consistently and I have no doubt that you WILL get there!

          See ya on Twitter.

          Very happy for you,

      It´s great to know how well you are doing, Shay.

      I am a newbie here -I have just arrived, we could say- and I am writing an ebook at the moment -I am more used to writing than I am to internet marketing-.

      Anyway, what I wanted to say is that I hope there will be a day when I start a thread titled "OMG! My first $300 day!!!". And, what will be even more important, a day when I can make a post saying: "Thank you, warriors, for all I have learned from you!".

      Go on, Shay. I am sure you will achieve any goal you want to.

    Well done Shay.

    I will tell you what Shay hasn't said

    Shay had an idea, and she started to ask questions. Every answer snowballed into more questions, and those answers snowballed into more questions. But, here is the most important part that most people don't get or understand.

    Shay took those answers and immediately put them into action. I mean immediately. 2 weeks ago she was doing her business in a certain way, she asked a question, got the answer, and made a change and has already seen the fruit of those changes.

    Well done Shay.

      Thanks, Bev! <==== (This is me blushing.)

      I can remember when I first came to the WF and I asked Bev, "What is PLR?"

      She was gracious enough to answer - and has answered many, many questions since.

      (I pretty much have questions every day for Bev. She loves me. LOL)

      That is the wonderful thing about this forum. Newbies can come here and ask questions - and get answers.

      I did not post all of my questions on the forum - I didn't want to look foolish. There were many PM's sent to people that asked, "What did you mean by...." And I got very gracious answers from so many Warriors here.

      I still ask questions.

      I have no problem asking for clarification if I need it. What good is partial knowledge? To me, that means you just know enough to be dangerous...LOL

      I also don't have a problem asking for advice if I am thinking about doing something. Why do something that is known to fail? If I can learn from the experience of others, that is better for me.

      Most of the time, the answer I get isn't, "Don't do that," but, "Let me show you a way that is better." I am not left hanging.

      (But you have to act on what you are told - don't just ask questions and then never do what is suggested!)

      I have never met a more giving group of people. Seriously. Have I paid for some of the knowledge I have gained? Absolutely. I have paid for a few WSO's and a workshop. But I consider that a small price to pay for the return. The amount I spent was less than 2 trips to the local Chinese food restaurant for me and the kids.

      The reward? A lifetime of financial freedom. Very much worth it.

      Something else I haven't mentioned often (in the OT forum I did): My husband is a disabled veteran. His health is not good. We have always known he would have to retire early - but I was so scared that I could not support us all if he became to ill to work.

      Now, we are happily planning his retirement. I am not afraid anymore.

  • You go girl! You're figuring out the underlying secret to making real money - learn how to make a few dollars and just multiply your efforts.

    Don't miss what Mike Williams said - create a product that teaches other newbies how to do the exact same thing. And make sure you keep in touch with the customers that bought from you. It's 100 times easier to make repeat sales to an existing customer than it is to sell to a new one.

    If you need any help creating your product let me know. It's one of the things I do best, and I'd be glad to help for free.

    Continued Success!

    It is so exciting!!!
