So a person who enjoys food and cooking, they cook a variety of foods to eat (the hobby), and they also buy food related books, magazines, and equipment (hobby related materials).

They don’t necessarily use the hobby related materials, they just enjoy buying it as it is an extension of the main hobby.

This is something that you should remember as a person who publishes a newsletter…

A person who subscribes to your newsletter does not necessarily have to get any ‘actual’ value from what you provide. For some, the act of consuming your newsletter is all the value they need making it worth their money to them.

Yes, it is nice that people enjoy actual value and benefits from what you provide, but it isn’t necessary. Many people simply enjoy buying, reading and seeing new stuff related to their hobby, and they are happy to pay for it.

The great thing about online digital newsletters is that – depending on the subject matter – you don’t need to provide more than 12 pages of content, and you write it only once.

Imaging that you had 500 people paying you £5 each month to receive a newsletter, you would make £2,500 for something that you produce just once a month.

That’s not too bad is it?

Not when you consider that your newsletter can be 12 pages or less.

Imagine that you were either charging more or had more subscribers… or both!

1,000 people paying £10 a month would make you a very decent £10,000 per month!

There are people who are doing that right now.

With the internet, you can quite easily have 1,000 people from all across the world paying you a monthly subscription fee to access content that you provide in your newsletter.

PS… Once fully established, you could be earning thousands of pounds each month from work which could take less than a day… depending on what you are providing.

A subscription based business is all about the numbers.

Give a large group of people something they want and need at a price they are happy to pay, and you can be paid multiple times for the one piece of work each and every month.

How To Cash In With A Subscription Based Business

I am using it as a prime example as to why you shouldn’t listen to what people say, or at least take to heart what they say.

The truth is… from person to person, from day to day, from situation to situation, other people’s opinions of you will differ.

What people say and think about you should never stop you from being or doing what you want.

The fact that different people can have the complete opposite views of you and your abilities means that you are always going to be good and bad at the same time and that those who think bad of you are wrong, and those who think good of you are right… and vice versa.

It really doesn’t matter what other people think, as long as you do what you think is right and best for you.

The other important point I want to share… and this is a truth that cannot be denied… people’s thoughts and opinions of you do not pay your bills!

In the past I have talked about how being thick skinned has made a lot of money for certain media personalities such as Piers Morgan.

They say and do whatever they want without a care in the world what other people think.

It doesn’t matter that they contradict themselves on a near-daily basis and that people point out their hypocrisy, they simply brush it off and carry on regardless…and bank the money that comes from them doing what they do.

And what is interesting is that people like Piers Morgan can be hated and liked by equal amounts of people.

They are both the best and worst at what they do.

Just like Sandra Bullock who was both the Best and Worst Actress on the planet at the same time.

You cannot please all of the people all of the time… so don’t try!

Please yourself, and only those you CHOOSE to please.

Do what is right and best for you, and ignore all of the nay-sayers and critics, because there are others who will love what you do just as much.

One thing that gets an equal share of fans and critics, is gambling.

Thousands of people love to have a punt on a game or major sporting event, and there are thousands of people who will cry the evils of gambling and tell you that you shouldn’t do it because ‘only the bookies win’.

As hard as it is to believe, there are people who still say that… ‘only the bookies win’.

Anyone who says stuff like that, clearly do not know what they are talking about.

And why would they?

They spend no time doing it so they are never going to understand it or learn about new developments and changes.

For example, you no longer have to use a bookmaker to place a bet today.

Millions of people prefer to use betting exchanges like Betfair…and they make large amounts of money because they don’t just have a ‘punt’, they use proven systems which overtime makes them more money than they lose.

The Easy As 1-2-3 Betfair System is a simple system that can give you a decent growing return 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.

Stories Are Powerful!

Stories have the power to convince people to believe what they hear. They can influence people into thinking certain ways, and to behave in specific ways.

Stories can be so powerful, people believe them upon hearing and believe there is no need to question what they hear or do any further research.

Stories influence belief and behaviour.

The best recruitment drive the US Navy ever had was not something they actually organised themselves, it was the 1984 film Top Gun.

After watching the film, many young men left cinemas feeling all ‘gung-ho’ and ‘patriotic’ and headed to recruitment offices where they enrolled into the US Navy.

It was so successful at recruiting new blood, some recruitment offices set up stalls within cinema foyers to capitalise on that desire to join the Navy that many young men felt at the end of the film.

This was a strike while the irons hot moment.

While young men were fired up and ready to sign their lives away, the US Navy was there ready and waiting with pen in hand.

Not only that… sales of Ray Ban sunglasses shot up by 30% thanks to the characters in the film wearing them.

Top Gun hugely influenced the behaviour of a lot of people… and it’s just a story!

Using story as part of your marketing is a great way to generate sales, and the good thing about story is that it doesn’t need to be long.

You don’t need to create a whole fictional adventure with many characters like the film Top Gun, you can simply share a story about bull fighting or Christopher Columbus to get your points across… if they suit the subject matter that is.

Using story is a vital when selling products.

It is something that should be used when writing sales letters.

One well written sales letter can generate more than enough money for the average person to retire on.

They can also take as little as half a day to write.

We now have self-driving cars replacing taxi and lorry drivers, we have machines that pick stock from shelves and deposit them onto conveyors that take them to a desired destination, and we have programmable drones which can deliver items through the air faster than vehicles using roads.

Let’s not forget that we also have self-checkout machines replacing cashiers in shops. The vice-president and CFO of Walmart, John David Rainey, has stated that by 2026, 60% of Walmart stores will be fully automated meaning they will have no human workers.

It’s a changing world, that’s for sure.

We do live in an exciting (and quite scary) time and it will be interesting to see if AI will develop to the point that it can actually make hands-free money and give people a living wage.

I’ve mentioned Mike Shreeve before; he is the guy who was once homeless and living in a tent in a park who started a writing business from the local library.

He now runs several seven-figure businesses. He is also a high earning author of fiction.

Writing pulled him out of the tent in a park and put him firmly into his own apartment, and he did it by going to the library and using their computers to learn how to write and started his freelance writing business.

Every day I am seeing more and more stories of people who are making tens of thousands of pounds by selling digital products, running online businesses or offering services online.

The opportunities and possibilities to make money from home are endless.

Mike’s example shows that there is no reason why people at rock bottom cannot earn money online other than real serious mental health and addiction issues.

Mike might have been depressed, losing your home and being forced to live in a tent in a park is not good for your mental health, but he didn’t allow it to fester, he used it to motivate him to take action.

Free from any addiction, he was in a good place to learn and work his way out of a hole.

I am fully aware that others are not so good, but that doesn’t mean that the opportunities are not there for them.

Anyone with an internet connection has the opportunity to make money from home. You just need to find the right method for you and get started.

In my previous articles, I have talked about many different ways to make money.

I have even highlighted how to get started building your own six-figure-a-year business without spending a penny of your own money.

Email and online newsletters are nothing new; people have been using them for many years, with many making small fortunes from them.

They are easy to run and easy to get started with.

Depending on how much you charge, you don’t need a lot of subscribers to be making a decent amount of money each month.

When Alicia accidentally set her newsletter to become a paid subscription newsletter, she had 400 people instantly sign up.

Imagine that you had 400 people paying you £5 per month… that would give you a cool £2,000 each month… all for writing and publishing a series of emails.

Imagine that you had 1,000 paying you £5 per month… that would give you a rather decent £5,000 each month.

Would you say no to that?

Imagine that you were like Alicia and had over 20,000 subscribers… how life changing would that be?

Alicia’s story is a perfect example of what is possible today thanks to the online domain.

Her newsletters and writing style may be more appealing over others contributing to her success, but the truth is… she was a person who simply started writing and publishing an email newsletter one day.

I don’t know if she had much in the way of a following to start with, but I do know that she started writing and publishing content and then grew her newsletter into the monster of an income that it is today.

An email and online newsletter is something that can be managed from anywhere in the world and is easy when compared to many other forms of ‘work’.

An email newsletter only needs to be written once whether you have only one reader or 20,000 readers.

That one email newsletter could be written while relaxing in your garden, while on holiday, while watching the television, or while listening to some music in your office.

You write it and publish it… and get paid multiple times for that one newsletter

This is a way to make money that is open to anyone and everyone.

All you need is to get yourself set up… then start writing and publishing regularly.

As soon as someone adds their details to the opt-in form, an email is sent that asks them to confirm that they do want to join the email list and receive the free eBook – this means that we know they have definitely agreed to join the email list and so we cannot be accused of spamming them with emails, once they have confirmed that, they are then sent an email which directs them to the download page.

People are directed to those pages automatically after they have completed parts of the sequence. Well, apart for the download page, they need to click on the link in the email for that but the email is sent to them automatically.

It is a smooth flowing system and a great way to build an email list of people who are interested in a specific subject.

The system is set up so that the people who join the email list are also shown products they can purchase meaning that we make money ‘passively’.

As the email list grows, I send emails out promoting relevant products and whenever a sale is made, I make money.

It is a fantastic way to make money because it can be done from the comfort of your own home, wherever that happens to be… and you can run it from anywhere in the world.

I, and tens of thousands of other people do it, and you can do it too.

You create a simple eBook or video around a specific product to give away for free or sell cheap, collect emails addresses, send emails to the people on your list… and make money.

“It’s ok,” replied the person serving them.

They ordered two choc brownies with ice cream and strawberries, which they finished within five minutes. They paid up and left leaving the owners to close up and finish for the day.

The coffee shop had stayed open for no more than an extra ten minutes but because of that, they had taken an extra £30 in sales.

They were able to serve and use up food which could spoil as they were closed the following the day.

The fact that they were welcoming and willing to serve beyond their closing time meant they earned more money.

Obviously, they cannot stay open for hours after closing time, they have family to go home to and lives to live, but the whole point of a business is to make money and as owners, they were not going to miss out on a few extra pounds by being inflexible and insisting that customers had to be out of the door by time of close.

The employee who worked for the coffee shop chain here in the UK had said that some staff would even tell people that the coffee machines were turned off and throw people out of the store before the official closing time.

As much as I sympathise with their problem of not wanting to get stuck cleaning up at the end of the day and not being paid for it, if staff in stores all across the UK chased customers away before they actually closed, they are losing the company a lot of money.

I’m not going to lie, I think the idea of owning and running a coffee shop or any kind of place selling drinks and food is a nightmare.

There is far more hard work than what I am prepared to do.

Also, the profits are small compared to what I make selling information products.

Where coffee shops make pennies on each cup of coffee, I make pounds on the manuals I sell.

Yes, they may sell more cups of coffee than the number of manuals I sell, but they need to sell a lot to match what I earn and all of those coffees need to be served by staff.

If I decided to sell just eBooks and online digital products instead, I wouldn’t need any staff at all.

With digital products such as eBooks, there are no physical materials required. No ink and no paper.

A cup of coffee needs a coffee machine, a cup, a spoon, coffee, water, possibly milk and sugar, and someone to make and serve it.

Digital products need nothing once they are online and ready to be bought other than a platform to sell them from, and thanks to companies such as Amazon, Gumroad, Warrior Plus, and Payhip, you don’t even need to have your own website.

EBooks don’t even have to be long either. I have seen people publish stories that are no longer than 15,000 words. The shortest stories are often just 2,500 words long.

They can be written in a day or two.

The ones I have seen were not brilliantly written either, but the authors were making money selling those eBooks for £2.99 or more.

This is something that I think more people can do as a way to make money without a lot of hard work or expense.

PS… EBooks are not hard to create and there are no limits to how many you can create (have created) and sell, especially if you create a lot of short easy-to-read eBooks.

eBook Publishing From Home

This week I read about a woman who was earning between £400 and £630 a month publishing erotic fiction to Medium.com.

She also had a membership where readers pay between £2.50 and £10 per month to access all of her erotic stories.

She also has about 20 eBooks that she sells for around £2.36 each.

I can’t say for definite how much money she is making each month, but I am going to say that it is £1,000 at the very least.

Now, I am not suggesting that you write erotic fiction as a way to make money, I am telling you this because I want you to know that it costs nothing to actually start writing.

It is one of the only ways to make money today that you can start completely for free.

I understand that writing isn’t for everyone.

It isn’t necessarily a fast earner either, it can take a while to build up a following and fan base.

But perhaps it could be used as a way to generate seed money which is then used to fund other money making ventures?

Writing could be used as part of a plan to raise the money required to do something less hands-on later down the line.

If money is a problem for you, then this could be a great way to start generating an income that you can use to invest into other ways to make money.

5 Ways To Find Freedom As A Paid Writer

I am not suggesting that you take other people’s books and summarise them particularly, but I am suggesting that you can take other people’s information – as long as it is commonly known – and publish simplified short eBooks and PDF reports.

Your selling point is that what you publish is straightforward, easy-to-read and free from a lot of unnecessary fluff and filler.

This also means that you can write and publish the eBooks faster as there is less to write.

If you can condense a 100 page book into a 25 page PDF; that is going to save both you and the reader a lot of time.

If you can condense a 25 page eBook into a 5 page PDF, then the time you save the reader is worth the price they pay you.

You could even take a whole book and reduce it to a one or two page checklist or cheat sheet for people to follow.

The idea behind this is that you create simple digital products which you put online with a simple sales page and a payment button.

Once online, you have a product that people can buy which earns you money.

As soon as you have one product online, create another.

Or even better… create a membership business where people pay you a monthly fee to receive life-changing information in a simplified manner.

I am a big believer in getting things out to market as fast as possible so that you can see how well it does.

Getting products online fast means that people can buy them from you sooner.

Far too many people are slow at getting things online and that can mean missing out on a lot of potential sales.

I was reminded of this last week when one of my staff bought a load of music from a musician who now self-publishes his work and sells it on the Bandcamp platform.

He spends time in his studio working on a piece of music, as soon as it is finished, he uploads it to Bancamp who send out an email notification to those who follow that musician, those people then go check out the new tunes which result in sales.

It is a simple process of:

Create a product > Put it online > Tell people about it > Make sales!

That musician is making money weekly by simply publishing his new work as soon as it is complete. He doesn’t wait around. He gets it out to market as soon as possible.

He doesn’t spend a year creating loads of tracks which he then thins out to make an album which is finally released a few months later, he creates a piece of music, uploads it and allows people to decide whether they like it or want it or not.

When people go to check out his new music, they also go through his old stuff to see if there is something else they want to buy.

By focusing on creating shorter summarised content, you can get your content in front of people quicker.

A lot of people don’t realise how easy it can be to create sellable digital products or how fast you can have something online generating sales.

By the time I have finished writing this article, I could have a page or two of content that I could convert to a PDF and sell from the website.

I’m not saying that people will want to buy this actual article, but what I am saying is that the time it took to write it, I could have written something that people would be willing to buy.

It’s possible that you could write and upload one new product to your website each day.

By the end of the year you could have a large portfolio of products that people can buy.

Write something, get it online, put a ‘Buy Now’ button on a simple sales page and test it.

I’m not saying that you will make a stack of sales on day one, but you certainly won’t make any sales if don’t put anything online with a payment button.
