Must Make $600 Extra by January 3rd Need Ideas and Help

Benjamin,

It sounds like you're already pretty experienced. If you need cash in your hands urgently, what I would recommend is doing product creation and producing something that you can sell for instant Paypal cash.

If you're an experienced writer, why don't you do a WSO and sell some article packs on in-demand topics? If you have considerable experience in article writing, you could also write a short guide on tips and tricks to getting your articles approved and ranking high in EZA. I'm sure there is something valuable that you could share with the community here. You could also go all the way and put up a sales page on a domain and start promoting it. All of the payments would be via Paypal, so having to wait for commission payments would never be an issue here; you'd get paid instantly for each sale!

Benjamin,

If you already have websites making you money you can look at selling one of them to get some cash flow. A website with steady income generally sells for 10x+ of monthly income, so a site making $60-100 per month could get you that figure.

Good luck

I never say this to posts like this but in your case I think there should be an exception. With that many articles under your belt, simply do a WSO for article writing.

I usually say make some offline sales for websites or something like that, however, as I said you seem like a natural for an article WSO.

On the cheap side offer 10 original articles for $50 and make 12 sales and you have your money.

Wow....i don't know why i didn't think about doing a WSO....probably because my brain is not thinking about doing something that cost me any amount of money, but they are not too expensive....I might just have to try to see what i can come up with for a WSO and get this money coming in.

Thank you to everyone so far.

Benjamin

Can someone tell me where i can find the pricing for a WSO and is that a better choice than a classified on the forum?

Benjamin

Benjamin, it is $20 for a WSO. You have to be a War Room member first though, that currently costs $37.

so with that said and me not being a war room member.....would it be better for me just to do a classified ad....i really cannot afford to spend much if anything considering my back is very much against the wall here....Any other ideas or any products that could be promoted through article marketing that pay paypal or weekly?

Benjamin

I may be mistaken about this as I've never run a wf classified ad before, but I think that war room membership is required for that too.

wow okay....that makes that option a little bit harder for me to be able to handle...definitely would be nice to be a member though and maybe for the future.....Really need a product or two that i can promote through article marketing that will pay me weekly or someone to write for i guess....gonna have to keep brainstorming.

Benjamin

I would def. suggest to flip sites.

Think of a niche, with not that much in competition. Write your articles - keep very high quality. Start building your site. Drive MASSIVE traffic (facebook, Wordpress-commenting with your keyword in the name-field, be active on forums, classfieldAds maybe, Twitter, YouTube, MySpace, Videomarketing - There is a lot of stuff). When you are done with getting some traffic, just sell the site. I am sure that if you Do this right, you can at least expect $300.

Where to sell your sites? - Ebay.com or Flippa.com

That's how I survive so, try it!

And if you don't have so much time to really create a little nichesite with articles, just design a Clickbank-Ready homepage and you can sell it for at least $300 too.


Good luck!

A.N

Hello Benjamin,

Selling of your websites that is currently producing $60 per month or more with a 10x income used for the selling price will give you what you need.

If the $57 needed for running a WSO is a hardship ... try Craigs List

Best Regards

You could make a writing offer in your sig. Make it an offer that can't be resisted for $60. That's enough for the War Room and a WSO.

Welcome to the wonderful world of "How to pull money out of thin air."

Benjamin I've sent you a pm

benjamin,

a) offer your services as a writer here and/or on DP forum. With your EZA background you shouldn't have a problem getting lots of customers who pay $4-$5- $?? article.

Furthermore, take your best articles/niches which make you money and increase the nr. of articles tremendously...submit as many as you can...but then there is a delay in clickbank payments and the money wont be on time i am afraid.

b) Here on the forum, in the services section (as well as on DP forum)...just look in the Wanted section and see what people need. They need writers, but it could also be all kind of jobs

"a" sounds good...with 2000 articles live people should really buy your articles!!

if you have multiple pen names for your articles why not flip one of those sale the whole account then the new owner can change the bio boxes to meet his own requirements.

I know the feeling Benjamin,
I'm still paying off my student loans now and have had to ask for forbearance's in the past because I had absolutely no money. While i'm far from being an expert at this, whatever help I can provide I'd be glad to do!

hey Benjamin,
I def. feel for you in your current scenario, and my best advice would be to sell a few of your websites. This can be extremely profitable and since you have so many, you could make $600 by just selling 2 or 3 depending on the sites. This would be the quickest way to get the money quickly most likely. This is a form of bum marketing and you should def. look in to it.
Good Luck To You

Benjamin, will your school allow you to set up a deferred payment plan? There are many schools that will. For example, you pay $200 by the 3rd of January, and then the school automatically debits your account/credit card until the full amount is paid.

It is much easier to come up with a smaller amount than it is to try to pay it all at once. So, a deferred payment option is definitely worth checking in to.

Okay to respond to everbody....First all those that have given me great ideas and helped me through pm THANK YOU....To answer the question about the deferred payment as school, that is why I need the $600. That is the deferred payment plan. If it was not happening around Christmas it would not be such a big deal. I really like the sig file idea and that is the next step. I will be changing it very soon. Anybody that is willing to elaborate on the idea of a WSO or give me some advice as far as what to include and how to make it look good please PM me.

Benjamin

My Response to Charles Montgomery......The Skeptic

I am glad that someone finally decided to point out that it would be impossible for there really to be a student out there that needs to come up with money for tuition.

I did not have an epiphany about a WSO and i was not here trying to create a thread that would drive traffic to a WSO. I have not even decided if that is the route I want to go.

You need to lay off and only post to threads if you have something to contribute.

Benjamin

I am going to have to aggree with everyone else. Run a WSO for articles and make sure your prices are a hair lower than everyone elses.

Show us some samples of your work and if they are good you should get a ton of business. Now, granted you will be super busy and not have time for much of anything else but, if you are desperate the only thing you can do is buckle down and get to work. If you don't already have it, I would recommend picking up a copy of Dragon Naturally Speaking 9 prefered (Not version 10 it sucks). You can get a really good deal on amazon for the software. That software will save you a lot of time on your article writing and help you to really crank those bad boys out!

Who knows, you might just be able to continue to offer your services here and add an extra long term income stream. Do your research on what price points you should go with and hit it up!!

But... The signature will and does work so you are off to a great start so far!

I understand your position and financial aid can really put you in a bind sometimes.

Good luck yo you!

To update this thread.....I have applied to become a writer at a few sites that pay per article and I am waiting for those sites to accept me. If anybody has any others that I might be able to work with please pm them to me.

I have also made some financial adjustments and found some money so I do not need quite as much, but still more than I currently have coming in. I am waiting for a little help so that I can join the War Room and do a WSO.

I will update on any other progress that is made.

Benjamin

I would offer an ebook writing service via WSO, and/or write an ebook to sell yourself, and/or flip a site or two on Flippa. You could also do a WSO for offering to be a writer for blogs. A lot of people need good content but either aren't good writers or don't have the time to keep their blogs updated. These offers could also be put in Warriors for Hire forum

Sell a few articles on this forum, then take the money and do a little researching on ebay to see what sells and what the average sell price is. Also look for the rate at which it sells by looking through the ended auctions section. Take the money you made writing articles and post on craigslist you are looking for a specific item at a certain price. Say you are desperate and you'll get alot of responses.

After you do this flip the products on ebay and there you go. Even with one hundred dollars you can pick up ipod shuffles for about 15 bucks used on CL and then sell them on ebay for about 25 to 40 bucks each. Easy money. I do this from time to time, buy laptops for about 125$ with certain specs then I sell on ebay for about 200$ I never fail to get at least 2-5 responses.

Very good advice with the ebay and craigslist idea. I actually used to sell a lot on ebay so that is right up my alley. Thank you to those that recommended I sell articles with my signature link. I have already got a few responses from that and will be working on them soon. Hopefully this will turn into a small part time income to add to what I am already making. That would make the student life a little easier and much more fun.

Benjamin
