Win A Ticket To The Hot Summer Seminar Series

June 4, 2009 By

 Summer is coming and so is the Hot Summer Seminar Series.  It’s coming fast – it starts June 10!

I’m going to be there and I’m very excited about it!  It feels like a godsend to me.  You see, I don’t have something that I actively sell.  There, I said it.  It’s hard to make a profit when I don’t have something I actively sell. [Umm, yeah.  That was a duh moment.]  During this seminar series the following ten [10!] online jobs will be covered:

  • Freelance Writer/Ghost Writer/Paid Blogger
  • Virtual Assistant
  • Ebay Seller
  • Content Marketer/Blogger/Podcaster
  • Graphic Artist
  • Blog Designer
  • Coach/Consultant
  • Social Networking Manager
  • Information Marketer
  • Affiliate Manager

Are you interested?  The first person to leave a comment saying they would like to attend will win a free pass to the Summer Seminar Series.  The rest of you will have to sign up for yourself.  It’s only $10!  Give up ice cream for 2 weeks and you can afford it.  I suspect that the profit of what you learn will far outweigh the $10 you pay.

Have any of you attended previous Summer Seminars?  Did you learn a lot?

24 Hours On TweepMe

June 3, 2009 By
tweepme

tweepmeThe bare facts:
Started June 2 with 1,072 followers and following 1,048.
Deactivated June 3 with 1,420 followers and following 1,569.

Why did I start?
I volunteered to do a review of TweepMe after a quick perusal of their site.  I cleared my inbox of new followers so that the above stats would be accurate.  Then I signed in with my twitter name and password and got $2 off for sending a tweet that I was joining.  I left the API limit per hour at 50.

What happened next?
There were no further instructions so I started browsing to see if there was something else I needed to do.  I noticed a lot of standard avatars without pictures when browsing tweeps. I clicked on 2 pictures of nice ladies.  One I followed.  The other was all in German.  I have nothing against German; I just can’t understand it.

I immediately checked email and had 4 new followers.  The first two that came through had protected updates, and one’s website was in Portuguese.  Of those first four I followed 2.  Then I had 2 more followers in email.  Three hours later it said I had 66 new followers.  By 9:00 that night I had 400 emails from Twitter.  Of the first 35 I looked at I followed 11.  Two of those I blocked, 2 were French, and 2 were Spanish.  I spent 2 hours going through those 400 emails while watching a movie with my husband, but when I was done I still had 400 emails from Twitter!  It seemed like they were coming faster and faster.  I told Twitter to lock my updates because I didn’t know what was happening.  It said I was following people that I would never even read.

Tell Your Readers You Accept Advertising

June 2, 2009 By


Ever have a duh moment? One of those times where you smack yourself upside the head and roll your eyes at your own incompetence? This totally just happened to me when someone suggested to me that I just tell my readers I accept advertising.

Of Course!

Who better to advertise on my blog than the people who read it daily and really respect the things I have to say?

Don’t be scared to put yourself out there and tell your readers you are accepting advertising!

But, remember some things–make sure they understand that you are only accepting quality advertising, and that they are going to want to see your traffic, so you need to be willing to show that off, and to say no to advertising you aren’t interested in.

Also, don’t announce to the world how much you charge for advertising on your blog, you never know when you might want to change that magic number!

You Want Me to Tell the Truth?

June 1, 2009 By
top-secret-1

top-secret-1Whoa, Jendi’s post about honesty and being who you are really got me to thinking. I am so scared to share my true self on my blog. I am so worried that people will think I am actually an uninteresting stay at home mommy with nothing to talk about.

Well, if I am–then I need to quit trying to fool them, right?

And, you should do the same.

Guess what–It’s a CHALLENGE!

I challenge you to post something off the wall and insane that you’re scared to post in your personal blog this week, and then come back here and link it.

Let us know if you see an increase in traffic on that particular post! People LOVE deep dark secrets!
