Default $0 setup cost but $10,000 in sales

Hi warriors,

Just want to share with you on how a teenager from my country made $10,000 a month online with zero setup cost.

Her business: She has a blogshop and sell handmade accessories and clothes.

I think her blog must be very popular and getting alot of traffic which explained the high sales figure but the strange thing is I could not find her blog on google ??

Well, this goes to show that not every marketing strategy is based around Google, is it?

I have heard of people doing similar things, selling their own hand made stuff on the net and quietly making some extra cash.

She may be getting traffic from other sources like articles or even local advertising in their area.

This reminds me of a very similar incident that happened to me last year!

I'd gone to the World Trade Fair, and as the name suggests there were people from all countries taht were show casing their work!

I saw a stall on beutiful glasswork that was hand made. It was a couple from Hong ong selling that! And after purchasing a few items from them (which I really think are a bang for the buck), I just casually asked them how they managed their business over seas.

And they were like- "We go to all the places possible to showcase our work". And rest as they say is history.

I spoke to them abiout how they could potentially make thousands of extra dollars easily by sendingout emails to the people that have bought through them And accept payments online.

Soon they handed me a check to hyandle everything from site design to follow up email campaigns to graphics. And now they have a real successful online presence as well!


Dunnohow it came to my mind... just thougt I would share!

We IM'ers forget the power of word of mouth advertising... especially for local businesses!

etsy is also a goldmine if you create unique handmade clothing/crafts. Better than eBay.

Marketing is online or offline or both.

Marketing as how Jay Conrad Levinson put it, is using the least for maximum exposure.

Many started off with nothing and just leveraging on just what they know. =)

And with a passion to share. =)

Cheers,
John

By the way ... I suggest you read upon J.C. Levinsons Guerilla Marketing books ... they are very valuable for more info.

Especialy he one about MEMEs ... they help in making anything go viral

Wow how the Girls from Singapore and Sweden are really lucky to have a good income, where as we had been struggling to achieve as what they had

I wish to make this money too.

Money can be made if you are passionate about what you do, recently I came across a blog which teaches people how to choose wine - cool! Any this guy makes millions of dollars every year.

The blog is wine library TV. Don't think I can put the url link here.

Is she extremely pretty and does she put her pictures in her social bookmarking account avatars?

worth of mouth can spread out very quickly among teenager especially girls. I remember one of my friends bought girls' accessories from China and in just 4 days promoted it, all girls in my college knew about her website.

Its suprising how fast stuff can spread through teens. I remember seeing a news report on a young girl who was an overnight millionaire just from making graphics to update myspace pages
