Avoid Hearing… “Pack Your Bags, It’s Time For You To Go!”

In a previous article, I shared the story of the 80-year-old pensioner in America who was forced to go back to work as a school janitor so that he could afford to pay the increase in rent.

That story had a happy ending thanks to the pupils of the school organising a fundraiser which raised nearly $90,000 for the man so that he could stop working and enjoy his retirement.

Not all stories have a happy ending.

As I’m sure you are aware, there is a cost-of-living crisis happening around the world and it is biting hard here in the UK.

The BBC have a show on their iPlayer called Evicted which follows the real life stories of youngsters who were about to be evicted (filmed winter 2022) through no fault of their own other than they cannot afford the increased rent costs.

One young woman named Thai, who was living in the tiniest cramped bedsit in Bristol, was fighting a 66.6% increase in rent from £450 per month, to £750.

£750 per month is more than half of her £1,400 per month wage.

Her flat was tiny… my office is bigger than her whole home.

She worked as a sales and marketing manager for a local entertainment venue and even before the letter arrived informing her of the impending rent increase, she was struggling to survive.

To save on costs, she was eating less and making decisions whether to cook food or have the heating on. She wasn’t doing both.

Thai was struggling to find other affordable properties in the city. Rents were going up across the board.

The area she lived in was one of the cheapest in the city and was an area with a high crime rate and a lot of poverty.

She was emotionally struggling with the idea that she couldn’t afford to live in the cheapest and worst area of Bristol.

She had no hope of affording anything in a better area of the city.

Thai’s mother suggested that she move back to Cornwall, the county she was originally from, but that would only cause more problems.

Firstly, she would have to move in with her parents because the rents in Cornwall were no cheaper, and secondly, if she left Bristol, she would have to leave her job and have no income coming in.

The fact that you could become homeless and then jobless because you cannot afford to live, is quite a depressing thought.

The programme highlighted that 4 in 10 youngsters were paying more than 30% of their income on rent alone.

That is a big chunk of income.

Whatever the solutions are to the current rental housing crisis and whoever’s job it is to implement them is a discussion for another day.

What I feel is important here is that those people who are struggling to afford to pay their rents, need to find a way to make more money, and they need to act fast.

A change in government may help, but there isn’t a UK general election scheduled until January 2025.

That may change, but there is no guarantee that a new government will be elected and if there is, there is no guarantee that they will address the housing crisis…and even if they did… nothing will happen overnight.

The responsibility of not being able to afford rent is solely in the hands of the tenant.

That’s not me passing the buck; it’s just a sensible realisation that the only options available are in the hands of the renter.

If they waste their time expecting help from the state or hoping that the landlord who was forced to put up the rent because of increased mortgage and service costs will lower the rent out of kindness, they are in for a big shock… and a long wait.

The only person you can really rely on is yourself.

It is your responsibility to ensure that you make enough money to survive.

I understand that time is a factor too and that people don’t want to spend all of their hours working.

In one scene the narrator said Thai had just finished a 12 hour shift. I don’t know if this was a one-off or whether she regularly worked long hours, but that doesn’t leave her with a lot of time.

Another person that was interviewed in the programme was a single mother with two young children to care for.

So I fully appreciate that people are not all blessed with a lot of free time at the end of the day.

However…

They need to address the issue of not earning enough money, and if they cannot work more hours or get a pay rise through their paid job, they need to figure out a way to make some more money so that they are safe from eviction.

It is for these reasons that I recommend people consider publishing digital products.

Digital products are great because:

  1. You make them once and can profit from them many times for many years.
  2. A digital product can be made in a few hours.
  3. They sit online 24 hours of every day waiting to be bought.
  4. They can be bought from anyone from anywhere at any time.
  5. Payment and delivery of a digital product is processed automatically.
  6. Money is deposited into your bank account automatically.

Digital products can be sold online on many platforms such as Etsy, Gumroad, and Amazon as well as from your own website.

Digital products can be as little as one page.

Checklists, cheat sheets and printable posters can be one sheet, eBooks and reports can be as little as a few pages long.

They are all very simple to create.

There are thousands of people making thousands of pounds selling their own digital products.

And you can be one of them.

The Sweet Story Of How A 17-Year-Old Makes £4,600+ Per Month

Featured Image Credit: TikTok/thesweetshack_ /Media Wales

I’ve just read how a 17-year-old makes £4,600 per month selling sweets online.

Callum Baker started The Sweet Shack when he was just 15.

Originally he sold homemade cookies but after seeing a few videos on Tiktok of people selling sweets online, he spent £50 of his own money buying sweets and having a simple website set up.

He only had five different sweet products to sell initially, and to advertise them he shared pictures and videos on social media platforms like TikTok.

He now has over 23,000 followers on the platform.

He started with a shelf in the corner of his bedroom, then expanded to two shelves, then moved into the spare room before having a shed purposely made in his parent’s garden from where he runs his operation.

Callum now stocks over 700 products including many sweets which are not available in shops.

Since January 2022, Callum has turned over £74,000 equating to around £1,156 a week, more than £4,600 a month.

He ships between 220 and 250 orders a week, with his mother, and an employee helping to process the orders and run the business.

At the time of writing, Callum is 17 and not legally allowed to drink alcohol or vote, yet he is earning £4,600 per month and has an employee working for him!

I want you to think about this for a second…

He is making nearly £5K a month selling sweets.

He may not be selling exactly the same sweets that are available in the shops… but sweets are available all over the place these days.

As well as most shops and petrol stations selling sweets, there are vending machines in many public areas and buildings.

You would be hard pressed to walk for a few minutes in any British town and not come across a place selling sweets.

Despite sweets being available from anywhere and everywhere, Callum has built a business selling more sweets to people.

Using free social media platforms to advertise his products, and using his website to process orders, he has built a simple easy-to-manage and incredibly profitable business.

Not only is the business profitable, it has been good for him mentally.

Before starting The Sweet Shack, Callum spent some time in hospital with depression. He was at his lowest point when he started the business.

The Sweet Shack has really helped him.

It has given him a purpose in life and he is currently juggling his sweet business with college where he is working towards a career in the police force.

The business plan in a nutshell is:

  1. Offer products people want to buy.
  2. Use free social media platforms to advertise the products.
  3. Have a simple website where people can place orders easily.

That ‘s basically it.

And it can be replicated with many different products. It doesn’t just have to be sweets.

As long as you have something people want to buy and you can sell it to them for more than what it cost you to buy or make, then you should be able to make a decent profit using this method.

If you choose to focus on selling digital products, the processing of orders is done for you automatically.

Where Callum, his mother, and his employee are busy processing over 220 orders each week, with digital products, they are automatically delivered without you needing to do anything.

You can easily and quickly scale a business selling digital products up to a six-figure-a-year income.

Four Men Killed Over Racing Pigeons And An Illegal Vegetable Plot! Seriously?

One of the strangest stories I have heard this week is the sad tale of four men who were found dead on an allotment in Portugal.

The men were all pigeon-fanciers (people who breed and race pigeons) and apparently, they were all killed after a dispute about pigeon breeding and an illegal vegetable plot.

Police believe that three men were shot by the fourth man involved in the dispute before turning the gun on himself.

I had no idea that people could become so passionate about pigeons!

Pigeons and vegetable plots are not the things I would expect people to be murdered for.

I’m used to hearing about murders connected to the control of drugs worth millions of pounds or as a revenge for a past crime such as murder or framing someone for murder…. but never pigeons.

People can be strange and when pushed too far, they can do some really heinous acts.

I mean, seriously… pigeons?

I really cannot get my head around the fact that men were killed because of an argument over pigeons… oh and a vegetable plot… as if that adds much more weight to it!

It does seem to be a common theme being played out around the planet though, someone doesn’t follow the rules, others object and then the person not following the rules goes a little stir crazy.

The other day I saw a clip from the US where a car was parked in a section of road which was both the end of a cycle lane and a spot for disabled people to be dropped off.

Right next to the parked car was a sign saying ‘No Parking’.

A cyclist wearing a camera came up behind the car, and objecting to the fact that they were clearly in his way and violating the laws, he knocked on the boot of the car lightly.

The occupants of the car got out and all hell was let loose.

The driver even pretended that he was ‘packing’ a gun in his pants!

Or maybe the arguing was making him a little excited! It wouldn’t surprise me with some of these people!

The couple in the car were clearly in the wrong, and they were threatening to batter the living daylights out of the cyclist because he ‘touched’ their car… the car that was smack-bang in the middle of a public right of way.

Wrong doers always seem to think that they can get away with doing what they want, but also insist that others are held accountable for doing things they don’t like that are not actually wrong.

A good example of that is the ‘freedom of speech’ warrior, Lawrence Fox, who thinks that it is OK for people (mainly him) to say what they want about anyone and anything, even if it leads to violence, but at the same time uses his wealth to take people to court for saying ‘unkind’ – but factual accurate – things about him.

The guy wants ‘freedom of speech’ and hates ‘cancel culture’, but he’ll happily cancel those who call him out for his hypocrisy…. Hmmmm, interesting.

People are strange indeed… which is why I am in the opinion that most of them are best avoided.

I see no logic in arguing with strangers.

I’d much rather say ‘yes, you are right’ and move on leaving them to stroke their own egos and strut around feeling superior… even if they are wrong.

Arguing with ‘certain’ people in society gets you nowhere.

Mark Twain understood this when he said:

“Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience.”

Sadly, when it comes to arguing a point, a ‘stupid’ person is like a dog with a bone… if only they were that dedicated and passionate when it came to doing something beneficial for their lives.

Don’t get me wrong, if it is serious and important, then maybe I will state that they are wrong and find a way to come to a peaceful conclusion as best as possible.

But I am not going to spend my time shouting at people in allotments, streets, or across social media.

I have far better things to be doing with my time.

I’d rather spend my time coming up with new product ideas, outlines for new books and creating new income streams which will actually benefit me and my family in a more wholesome way.

Instead of falling out with people on social media writing Tweet after Tweet of insults, why not write a book?

It’s far more profitable and beneficial to your life.

A 15 to 30 page eBook could easily generate £30,000 or more for your efforts… depending on what the subject matter is, of course.

Virtually all of the products we have created and promoted have generated at least £30,000… and they really are not that hard to make.

You only need a series of screenshots or pictures (if they are needed at all) and a few pages of text to create a product that people will find useful.

If it is useful to people, they will want to buy and own it.

The BIG Difference Between Successful And Non-Successful People

I’ve just read another article this morning which states that the main difference between successful people and those that are not so successful, is the ability and willingness to say ‘no’ regularly.

Saying ‘no’ is something that successful people do quite a lot.

Non successful people generally say yes to the things that rob them of their precious time and money.

They say yes to more distractions.

They go out with friends, play computer games and/or sports, watch television shows and films more, go clubbing, and go to sporting events.

Their hours are filled with ‘doing stuff’ most of which isn’t going to help them achieve any goals or desires they may have.

Quite a few of those people may be ‘people pleasers’ who are afraid to say ‘no’ in case it upsets other people.

People pleasers fear being seen as a bad person by their friends and family, but saying no to a weekend BBQ party doesn’t mean that you don’t like those people or don’t enjoy spending time with them – if they think that, that is their issue.

Saying no to yet another weekend BBQ party just means that you have other things that you would rather do with your time.

That is perfectly acceptable as it is your life.

If another person takes it the wrong way, that is just something they will have to deal with.

A lot of successful people are single minded and wouldn’t be classed as ‘people pleasers’ as they understand that it is not their job to please other people, that is the job of the individual themselves.

The popular inspirational and empowerment speaker Terry Cole-Whittaker said, “What you think of me is none of my business”.

Successful people in general, don’t really care what people think of them, especially if what they think is wrong and based on something they have misunderstood.

Saying no is good for success and happiness because it frees you up to focus on only the things that are really important to you at the time.

Saying no saves you time and money allowing you to use it on the things that really matter to you.

Saying no allows you to focus only on what you want and need to do.

Life is short and success requires time and so if you are doing anything and everything for everyone else, then you are pushing success further away and reducing the chances of it happening.

Saying no can be hard to do for a lot of people because they fear upsetting people and they feel bad if they think that is what has happened so they avoid those bad feelings by saying ‘yes’ all of the time.

But ultimately, they will never feel as bad as the feeling of regret they will have when they realise that they haven’t enjoyed or experienced the life they wanted because they were too busy pleasing other people by doing stuff that wasn’t really that important.

Saying no more regularly doesn’t mean saying no to everything.

You don’t have to become a hermit focusing on only one thing at a time.

Success can come quicker if you simply balance out life a little better by saying no to a few things and using that time and money on the things that really count.

One of the big problems today is something that has been called FOMO which stands for Fear Of Missing Out.

In a world of instant gratification and social media showing ‘influencers’ living wonderful lives rich in experiences and fun, a lot of people now believe that if they are not ‘out doing stuff constantly’ then they are not living a life at all.

So when they get an invite to do something they cannot help buy say ‘yes’. If they see friends doing fun stuff without them, they feel left out and even rejected.

It’s ridiculous and quite harmful because it doesn’t allow people to even sit for five minutes and have a breather.

They don’t get time to think about what it is that they really want from life… they certainly won’t have the time to work at something that could improve their lives because they are constantly busy.

And as we know, being busy doesn’t always lead to success.

Being busy just means constantly doing something, and that something can be incredible time sapping and detrimental to your life.

There is a lot of power in the word NO, is it time you used it more?

Say no to unnecessary distractions and focus more of your time and efforts on one thing which will generate the results you desire.

If making more money is something that you want, find a system or business model that you like the look of, and focus your attention and efforts on it as much as you can.

It doesn’t have to be forever, just long enough so that you have learned all there is to know and that it is giving you what you want.

Once you are successful and living the life you want, you can then say yes to more because it’s highly likely that you will have more free time.

The Easy As 1-2-3 Betfair System is a simple system that can give you a lot more free time once you have the hang of it… and it won’t take long to get the hang of it.

It is very easy to learn and understand.

You could be using it to make money as soon as you have finished reading the short easy-to-follow manual.

The REAL Industrial Revolution Is Upon Us!

If you haven’t heard of ChatGPT or AI tools, then you have either been living in a cave like Spanish extreme athlete, Beatriz Flamini, who recently set a new world record after spending 500 days living in a cave alone and isolated from society.

I don’t know if it was something that she wanted to do for herself, but it will be useful for science as she was being closely monitored by scientists who have been studying what prolonged periods of isolation and living in a cave can do to humans.

Beatriz went in way before ChatGPT was released and will have no idea as to what it is or what it can do.

Released in November 2022, ChatGPT is an AI chatbox that you can ask questions and it will deliver ‘fairly’ accurate answers.

When they say Artificial Intelligence, we may not be at the level of AI consciousness as in i-Robot starring Will Smith or A.I. – Artificial Intelligence starring Haley Joel Osment, but we are at a point where these tools can churn out content fast.

ChatGPT can write eBooks, emails, and articles in a matter of minutes…. even seconds.

It is advised that you fact-check what comes out as it has been known to ‘fill the gaps’ with guesses when it struggles to find the right information. It’s not fully 100% accurate just yet.

ChatGPT has been fed millions of pieces of information; maybe it searches the whole internet for the right information, I don’t know, whatever it does, it does it at lightning speed!

Chat GPT is not the only AI tools available.

I watched a short video the other day explaining how you can make faceless affiliate videos for YouTube in as little as FIVE minutes!

To make these videos you go to ChatGPT and ask it to create a five minute video script on specific topic which you then add to Speechify.com which will ‘read it out’ and turn it into an audio file.

You then take that audio file and go to Invideo.io and upload both the script and audio to the software which will create a video by matching the content with the stock images it has in its huge database.

You can have a video made in five minutes ready to upload to YouTube, a video that has the potential to make you money.

If you want to use a face to read out your script, you can go to Heygen.com and add the script and choose one of the many people they have there to read it out for you…

But know this… these people are not reading the script, there are no voiceover costs here, these are ‘deep fake’ style videos where the faces appear to read the words that are part of the script.

They look rather realistic.

They may not be 100% just yet, but soon you won’t be able to tell that these people are not actually reading your script but are a series of pre-recorded videos that are being manipulated by AI technology to look like they are reading your script.

AI is now also generating art that looks every bit like something created by a human.

Book covers can now be created by authors without having to pay book cover designers to do it for them.

AI is changing the publishing industry beyond recognition.

We are at that point where it is now possible that one person can run a successful home-based publishing business without having to hire writers, proofreaders, editors, or cover designers.

All of the work can be done by one person using AI tools.

I’d say that it is possible that one person could create and publish a new completed digital product per day. Some people may be able to do more. It depends on their work ethic and how they approach it.

AI technology is going to make a lot of money for a handful of people.

I’d like to say that it will make a lot of money for a lot of money – it might, but it is still early days and no one knows exactly what is going to happen.

A lot of writers, editors, researchers, designers, proofreaders are going to be put out of work. They could pivot and create content for themselves to sell instead of writing for others, but that could result in potentially millions of pieces of content being published which is probably far too much for human consumption.

Also, if writers are going to use AI to write content because it can research and deliver all the information a person wants in minutes, or even seconds… what is stopping those who consume information from simply using them tools themselves instead?

We already have people using AI tools daily in their homes. People ask Alexa and Google for information and help.

If they can do that, why would they want to buy an eBook about vegan baking when those tools can give them information and recipes instantly?

Today I received an email with the title ‘RIP: Copy Courses’ stating that people no longer need to buy courses on a copywriting because they can actively learn it while using AI tools.

If that is the case, information publishers could be facing an uncertain future.

I like to think that AI will spawn a new industry where people become researchers and analyze markets and niches.

The problem with that though, is that with these AI tools, you can research, analyze and plan a year’s worth of product ideas in a few days.

No company is going to hire someone for a fulltime position when they are only needed for a week.

This opens up the doors to freelance researchers and analyzers but again, if they can deliver a year’s worth of work in a week, one person can service many different companies meaning that there is only needed a handful of specialists… and a handful of specialists doesn’t make an industry.

We are at the dawning of new era. This is the new industrial revolution, one which is potentially going to put a lot of people out of work.

As with all progress in society and technology, new jobs and industries are usually born as a result, but with AI that can write software programs, computer code, and a whole lot more… has the time come where the AI has completely eradicated these new industries because it can do that work too?

Who knows?

What I do know is that we are living in a time that is both exciting and scary. It depends on how you look at it and how you perceive the changes it will make.

I also know that it is going to make some people a stack of money.

And this is where the future of information publishing is going.

It is going into the hands of individuals at home.

The popular ecommerce website, Amazon, is now worth $1.5 trillion because it is the go-to place with 200 million customers choosing to buy through it each month.

Quite a lot of that money is generated by people buying books both physical and digital (eBooks).

Amazon sells around two thirds of all physical books sold in the UK and USA and nearly 90% of all eBooks.

Amazon also has an AI which works out which books are selling well and they then show those books to people who it ‘thinks’ would be interested in buying them.

Amazon basically shows popular selling books to potential new customers for you.

People are using AI to write books which they then upload and sell through Amazon.

The books produced by AI needs to be top and tailed a little with a bit of personality added and fact checked to ensure that it is accurate.

That shouldn’t take too long to do, and once they are ready, you can simply upload them to Amazon who will process the sale for you and manage the promotion of your book too.

AI can create those eBooks for you and this is where home-based information publishing is heading… into the hands of people like you.

Woman Who Couldn’t Read Or Write, Becomes Bestselling Author

Image source: Lancs Live

This morning I read about a 53-year-old woman from Manchester who has written 27 books.

Karen Woods is known as Manchester’s Queen of Crime.

There’s nothing special about a woman writing 27 novels, a lot of people write and publish books.

But what is special about Karen’s story is that she couldn’t read and write until the age of 39.

Karen had a bad start in life, but thanks to an adult literacy course, she was able to turn that bad start around and within a short 14 year period she has written and published 27 crime novels.

So… if you believe that you cannot do or achieve something… think again.

Going from not being able to read and write to being a bestselling author nicknamed Manchester’s Queen of Crime is seriously impressive.

That is an incredible achievement in my opinion.

In a world where people are written off after a certain age and where success is seen as something that should be achieved when you are young, it is refreshing to see someone follow their dreams and go from the lowest point possible to the highest highs.

For someone who wants to be a popular and well respected author, not being able to read and write is the lowest possible point there is.

How can you even contemplate being an author if you can’t even read or write?

Well, it is what Karen wanted and she was determined to make it happen… and she did!

So, if there is something you want to achieve but believe that it is either too late or that you cannot do it, think again.

Most things are possible.

Obviously, I am not going to say that everything is possible; because it’s not true.

No matter how much he wants it, I cannot see a 96-year-old wheelchair bound German playing for England in the next world cup.

There are so many reasons as to why that won’t happen, but that isn’t to say that he won’t meet some of the team… but he won’t be playing alongside them.

You have to be realistic in your desires, but most people undervalue themselves and their abilities and overestimate the hurdles which stand in the way.

The truth is, most people can achieve what they desire (as long as it is possible), it’s just that they never have a real attempt at it.

Whatever you think is preventing you from achieving… or even attempting your desires, it’s highly likely that it is nothing as severe as wanting to be a writer but not actually being able to read and write!

You can do it.

I know you can, you just need to believe you can and make a start… then stick with it.

Sticking with something is the actual winner.

Being consistent is what differentiates successful people from those who fail.

Sticking with something long enough for it to bear fruit is something most people who fail… fail to do.

A system can only work when it has been followed to the letter, given all of the ingredients and attention it needs.

An apple seed cannot grow into a tree if it is dug up and tossed into the bin because it hasn’t delivered apples within a fortnight.

It needs time.

Once it has had the right amount of time, the tree will grow fruit that will nourish and feed you.

Systems like the Easy As 1-2-3 Betfair System require consistent attention for it to bear fruit, but when it does… the fruit are super sweet.

Making Money Doesn’t Require A Lot Of Technical Know How!

In a world where computer programs and AI software appear to be running the whole show, we have to remember that not everything is digital and that people still want and need ‘physical’ items.

People still need to wear shoes and trainers, they still want to play computer games and listen to music on records, CDs and even cassette tapes.

Did you know… cassette tape sales are at a 20-year high according to the music magazine NME.

I don’t know who is buying or selling cassettes, I can’t imagine many people have cassette players these days, but yes, cassettes are becoming popular again.

In the US, sales of albums on cassette tape increased by 28% in 2022 to 440,000 (up from 343,000 in 2021) according to the US 2022 Luminate Year-End Music Report.

There is a big demand for old albums on cassette tape by those who either missed them when they originally came out when they were young, or they have since sold or lost them and they want to get them again.

Cassette tapes, CDs, DVDs, books, computer games, shoes, trainers, jeans, ties… all of these things can easily be popped into a box or a bag and put into the post.

The reason I am telling you this is that there are decent profits sat waiting on the shelves of charity shops or the table tops at carboot markets.

This week I spoke briefly to a guy who had bought an original 1983 Pac-Man game console, boxed and in great condition, from a charity shop for £30, there are others currently being sold on eBay for between £300 and £500.

That same guy paid for his whole wedding and several holidays through selling items he bought for a few pounds from charity shops and carboot markets, on eBay for a much larger profit.

I found out that this week he sold several pairs of trainers that he had bought a while back from a carboot market and hadn’t got round to listing them on eBay until last week.

The profit he made from those sales is somewhere in the region of ten times what he paid for the trainers.

So, if he had spent £10, he made back £100.

£90 profit isn’t bad at all for a £10 investment. Is it?

He says that he always makes at least treble his initial purchase costs.

So for every £1 he spends, he makes at least £3. Very often he makes more.

On the surface, it sounds like it can be hard work going to carboot markets and trawling through charity shops, but it doesn’t have to be.

He usually goes to a carboot market early on a Sunday morning for an hour or two, gets back and lists his purchases on eBay and is usually finished by 10am.

That is it for the week other than dealing with questions and processing any sales that happen.

Occasionally, during the week he will pop to the charity shops to look for a bargain and then list them as soon as he gets home. It doesn’t take him long to get items listed.

It is one of the easiest and least technical ways to make money.

Other than being able to take a photo with your smartphone and access eBay, there is nothing technical to learn.

The wife of one of the Streetwise team loves to trawl charity shops at the weekend and she drags him around too. While in the charity shops with his wife he is always looking for a bargain that he can sell for a profit.

He is there in the shop anyway, so he might as well profit from being there.

If you like to go for a walk as way to get some exercise, why not walk to the charity shops and look for a bargain or two?

If you have to ‘pop into town’ for something specific, why not pop into a charity shop and have a browse for a bargain or two?

Incorporate a carboot market or charity shop with your weekly walk and turn that walk into a money making venture.

While energy and food prices are high, and people are struggling, anything a person can do to make more money is a must.

It’s not hard to determine what can sell for a profit or not, a quick search on eBay and Google can tell you there and then what something is worth or whether there is a demand for it.

Once, while waiting for his wife to look through clothing in a charity shop, the guy who works for us found a load of old comics and wondered if they would be good to buy.

After a quick look on eBay he determined that they were not worth his time or effort as they were selling online for the same price.

Later, in a different charity shop, he found a series of old books priced at a £1 each that were selling on eBay for at least £5. Needless to say, he bought them and sold them for a profit.

If you make just £50 a week, that is a nice £200 extra each month, which is a decent £2,400 per year.

It may not be huge, but you can do quite a bit with £2,400.

In fact, you can do quite a bit with £200 if you use it as the seed money for an online digital business as laid out in this blueprint:

What To Do When You’re Stuck In A Harbour Without A Motor

I was talking to one of my team today, Andi, and we were discussing ways to make a few thousand pounds relatively fast.

The conversation was born from the Ch5 drama, The Catch, he was watching where a fisherman, played by Jason Watkins, was the target of a campaign of sabotage.

One day he found his fishing nets cut, then a few days later, someone had put salt water into the boats motor crippling the boat. A few days after that, he was hit by a fine for fishing ‘over’ his allowed quota.

The poor guy was simply trying to make a living in a world where prices were rising and he was only allowed to land a specific number of fish.

The sabotage to his nets and engine and the fine were going to cripple him. He was forced to find the money from somewhere and so he forged his mother-in-laws signature for a loan using her house (which he lived in) as security.

I’ve yet to find out what happens to the fisherman, I don’t think Andi has seen the whole drama yet, but what stuck with me was how rapidly things can go downhill if you don’t have enough spare money – or a way to make money fast – when you need it most.

I have talked about it a few times before where I have offered up several suggestions and ideas on how to grow a slush fund that can protect you when things suddenly go against you.

There is one way to make fast money which I haven’t yet talked about. This is for those people who create and sell their own digital products online.

In a previous article I have talked about offering your services for a premium price or selling a bundle of your information products to the people on your email list as a way to make a decent lump sum of quick cash… but there is something else you can do… sell licenses to your products.

When you license your own products, you can charge up to ten times the sale price.

So if you sell an eBook for £47, you could license the eBook for £470. The license allows the buyer to rebrand it and sell it for themselves keeping 100% of the profits.

If you sell it with sales copy, graphics, bonuses and pre-written emails, you could charge more.

An eBook/video course that sells for £97 with a pre-written sales page, pre-written emails, cover graphics and a couple of bonus reports all in an editable format could easily sell for £997.

If you were looking for a quick £1,000, you’d only need to sell one or two licenses of your products.

For that to work, you need to have a decent sized email list which, as you will know by now, is something I recommend everyone to have.

You also need to create your own products, but that is a lot easier than you may think. You can always outsource the work to others then reap the rewards when you sell the products and licenses to those products to other people.

To learn how to make your own products that you can sell from anywhere between £2.99 and £997 go to:

PS… EBooks are not hard to create and there are no limits to how many you can create (have created) and sell.

The more eBooks you have listed on your website means you have a greater opportunity to earn more… it also means that you have more licenses to sell for a premium price.

30 Years For How Much? Was It Worth It?

In 2001 in Derbyshire, UK, a man broke into the factory where he once worked several years as a security guard, to steal money from the gaming machines in the staff canteen.

During the break-in, the burglar was disturbed by the security guard who recognised him as being an old work colleague.

Realising that he had been recognised, the burglar bludgeoned his old work colleague to death, hitting him more than ten times with a hammer before dragging his body out into the car park.

At first, the police had no leads or idea as to who was behind the brutal attack.

They figured that it was a burglary and that the attack originally happened inside the building and not in the car park, but they had no idea as to who the burglar was.

A fingerprint was found at the scene, but it matched none on their ‘new’ electronic computer database.

Fortunately, the murderous burglar had broken into the factory a few months before and had also left fingerprints which were added to the ‘older’ wet ink fingerprint files.

Realising that there had been an identical burglary a few months before, the detectives decided to trawl through the old fingerprint files looking for a match for the print found at the latest burglary that resulted in the death of the security guard.

They found one.

A man was arrested and the case against him was made with the discovery of more evidence when they searched his car and house.

The burglar was eventually sentenced to life in prison for the murder with a further three years per burglary added to his sentence.

He was not going to see the light of day for a good 30 odd years.

And do you know how much he stole from those machines that night?

£200!

An innocent farther-of-three was murdered for a lousy £200.

It is a shocking story.

I don’t know much about the killer’s life at that time. I don’t know if he needed money ‘desperately’, it is said that during an interview with the police, the burglar told them that the break-ins were an act of revenge against his former employers and work colleagues.

I don’t know why, or what had happened for him to want revenge if that is true, all I do know is that he has lost around 30 years of his freedom, an innocent man died, and his family was torn apart… for a lousy £200.

What an absolute waste!

If the money was the reason for the burglary, then it is incredibly sad because there are many ways to make money which don’t result in lengthy stays in prison and/or the death of innocent people.

It’s well known that most people want things ‘now’.

A lot of people are lazy and impatient and I guess breaking into a factory to steal £200 could be seen as a decent haul if you are in and out within a few minutes.

But is it really worth it?

There are many ways to make that kind of money… and many of them don’t require you to work hard for it.

One incredibly simple way to make money is to write and send emails to people.

What I am writing today… will make money.

I made over £4,000 one weekend sending a simple email as a ‘test!’

The emails I write and send sell products such as The Email Secret.

For those who don’t know, The Email Secret is a product which shows you how to make money writing and sending simple emails (like this one) and how to build an online information publishing business similar to mine which has made millions of pounds in sales over the years.

I am not alone in this; tens of thousands of people worldwide make thousands of pounds each month writing and sending simple emails which promote high priced products.

Making money sending emails gives you a freedom other businesses can’t.

It allows you to travel the world because you can write and send emails from the four corners of the globe. You do not need an office or any staff to run an email business.

PS… A quick email writing tip for you… watch documentaries, watch films, watch television dramas, read books, read magazines, read news articles, read articles online and listen to podcasts.

All of the above will give you a wealth of information and ideas which can be used in writing articles and emails.

The story I shared with you today is from a BBC show which interviews detectives about cases they worked on and how they cracked them resulting in a conviction.

And that story works nicely to highlight that crime is not the best way to make money compared to writing and sending emails.

Why You Should ‘Keep It Real’

There’s a lot of talk about AI at the moment.

I think it has also become a new marketing term that a lot of people are jumping on.

I’m half expecting Wilcos to somehow add ‘AI’ to the marketing description of dustpan and brush sets!

The world has gone AI mad, and there is a reason for that… AI is here, and it is changing the way the world works.

Just look at Alexa, you can talk to a speaker in the corner of your lounge and get answers to virtually any question.

You can ask it to play music, tune into radio stations, turn the TV channel over and turn off the lights.

You can even watch what is happening outside your house by asking it to show your Ring doorbell.

AI is here, it is powerful, and people are beginning to make a lot of money using it.

But there is one thing AI cannot do… and that is…

Be a real and authentic person!

Being authentic and real is one of the most powerful ways to make money.

People buy from people.

And they buy into people.

They follow people they like and they happily take a look at the things they recommend.

People influence people.

There is an honest truth about people that AI cannot yet deliver.

Even when a person is lying, it can often be seen as truth by the way it is delivered.

Many people admit to still liking specific people even if they have been proven to lie regularly.

You only have to look at the popularity of some of the politicians that have graced the floors of Westminster recently.

It seems that no matter how many times politicians and celebrities lie and behave appallingly… as long as they are a ‘character’ and appear to be a ‘good and fun’ person… people still like them.

Unlike AI, humans have personality.

AI tools are wonderful and they should be used. Just today, I have been talking to a member of my team about utilising AI tools more.

They can be used to make videos, write scripts, read out text and make podcasts.

AI tools can help people to create products for little expense… but if you really want to succeed, being seen as the front of the business would be incredibly beneficial.

It is human nature to distrust the unfamiliar and the best way to beat unfamiliarity is to become familiar with people.

Being familiar really means being seen as a real person. A series of photos and posts on social media will help with that.

Maybe even a video or two.

They don’t even have to be about work. A couple of pictures of you enjoying a meal or a walk in the countryside can add a lot of weight.

Yes, it would help if you do mention once or twice that you are the person behind a specific product so that when anyone comes across your social media posts, they know that you are the right person.

You cannot underestimate the power of an evolving life story.

People see it and go ‘oh, so [your name] is a real person’.

That is powerful.

It builds trust too.

If someone talks to you about a book that has been published by a celebrity that you know of, you instantly recognise the name, you know of the person and you have no reason to doubt that the book is real or genuine.

All doubts and fears are removed because you know of that person. They have a well-known and traceable public history.

Here is the thing I want you to consider…

Virtually everyone has a smartphone these days, and everyone over the age of 14 has the opportunity to open up profiles on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and Tiktok for free where they can share pics, videos and do live broadcasts… which costs nothing to do.

You really don’t need to do a lot or spend any money to be seen… and being seen and known as a real person is powerful and profitable.

It is through the use of those tools and free platforms that ordinary people have been able to build six-figure-a-year incomes without spending a penny of their own money.
