It reminds me of the story Andi, our techy guy, shared with me a year or two back.

Several years ago, he was working as a maintenance and odd-job man at an engineering company. He was often asked to cut metal for the machinists when they were snowed under with work.

One of the apprentice machinists like to do as little as possible and one of the jobs he disliked doing was cutting metal.

This one day – he wasn’t snowed under with work I may add – he walked from the machine shop, where the metal saw was situated, to the stores at the far end of the workshop to ask Andi if he would cut a couple of inches off the two pieces of bar he was holding.

Andi refused because he was in the middle of an important job that needed doing there and then… but he told the apprentice that if he, the apprentice, had done it himself, he could have had it cut in half the time it took for him to find him.

What was a five minute job took roughly 20 minutes by the time the apprentice got back to the saw in the machine shop.

I can’t help but feel that a lot of people are going to lose a lot of time trying to create content with ChatGTP in a similar way.

If they simply started writing, they could be finished by the time ChatGPT has given them something to work with.

I’m sure the software will revolutionise the world, this is why Microsoft is investing billions into it.

It already appears to be replacing humans.

The popular online entertainment media company BuzzFeed is using it to create online quizzes and list focused articles after recent ‘job cuts’.

But for now, it is going to be lacking in personal stories that people can identify with and which help build connections and relationships.

I’ve just shared a true story with you in this article. Being told that story is part of my life experience.

ChatGPT won’t be able to do that.

A lot of people fear AI software but in world where humans are ‘wired for stories’ and where storytelling has been used for centuries to pass on ideas, information and history… I don’t think it will replace quality writers any time soon.

Quality writers can earn a lot of money and it’s possible that, thanks to ChatGPT, quality writers may become more ‘in-demand’ as more and more people start using software to create dull and generic content.

In a world where generic dull content is becoming the norm, content written for humans by humans is going to be worth its weight in gold.

We humans like to read something far more exciting than a list of facts or a product description.

The written word is incredibly profitable; our company has made millions publishing manuals and books focusing on teaching people how to do something specific.

And you can do the same…. and I don’t see that changing any time soon, either.

I cannot guarantee that you will make millions as it all depends on far too many variables which different people do differently.

What I can guarantee is that if you create your own information products, you have a far greater chance of making money than if you don’t.

You cannot sell something that isn’t made… well you can, I generated over £4,000 one weekend selling a product I had yet to make… but that is an article for another day!

Publishing digital information products means that you can earn money at any time of the day or night.

You can have money coming into your bank while you sleep, while you go out for coffee, and while you are on holiday.

Doesn’t that sound appealing?

Would you like to earn money while you are busy enjoying yourself?

PS… As the name of the product suggests, after 30 days you will have a product which has the potential to earn you £30,000. That is the minimum amount of profit all of our products have made… and a lot of those products took less than 30 days to create!

She started by listing a few dresses of her own for hire and was gob-smacked when people began hiring them from her.

She listed the rest of the items in her wardrobe and then began to buy more items of clothing to rent.

Paula likes fine clothing but she didn’t want to buy brand new from shops as that would be expensive and take longer to earn her money back so she purchased ‘new with tags’ items from eBay for a fraction of the store prices.

Most items cost £30 to hire but for some items she charges £100.

If Paula can purchase a high-end dress from eBay for £400, she will rent it out for £100 a time and earn her money back quite quickly.

Renting her clothes out to others means that she can buy good quality high-end items to enjoy herself… and then get her money back.

Basically she gets new clothes and bags for free!

It sounds a fantastic idea.

In previous articles I have mentioned people who hire out their campervans, tools, cars, and even driveways. Renting out your own property is a great way to earn back the cost of purchase and make a profit.

In the digital domain you can do something similar… you can rent out space on your website, rent out space in an email, and rent out your email list itself.

When you have a popular website with a lot of visitors and/or a large email list, you can charge a ‘rent’ to those who want to put their offers out in front of those people.

You own the people they need in order for them to make any money.

Buyers are the life blood of a business and to find buyers you need to put your offers in front of a large number of people, which is why people will give you money if you have a decent amount of people at your disposal.

Not only can you make money selling your own products and affiliate products to the people who visit your website and on your email list, people will also pay you to show their products which effectively means that you grow your email list and website for free.

How does that sound?

The Email Secret

One of the most powerful things about eBooks is that they are digital which means the original files can be replaced with new ones meaning that you can update an eBook incredibly easy.

When you create a new eBook and want to mention it in your previous eBooks, you can modify the original documents of those previous eBooks and then upload the new version to your website and whenever anyone buys a new copy of your earlier eBooks, they will see your latest eBooks being promoted in them which will help to sell them.

With eBooks being digital, they do not need you to have thousands of copies printed and you don’t need to post them to people.

They are delivered automatically as soon as a buyer has paid.

The eBook is either delivered to the customer automatically via email or the customer is sent directly to where they can download it.

You don’t need to do anything as part of the purchasing process other than look at your phone when you get the notification informing you that ‘you have made another sale’.

If you write about specific subjects and price your eBooks accordingly, you could be earning between £19.99 and £97 per sale… possibly more.

Making just one sale a week of a £97 eBook is surely better than working an extra 7 to 9 hours at work or at a second job.

Four sales per month of one £97 eBook is £388 which would to be a big help to most people.

Four sales per month is just me being conservative with my estimates, there is no reason why you cannot sell a lot more than that.

You can price eBooks at any price you want… you may prefer to write short and simple eBooks that you price for £4.99 or £9.99… it is completely up to you.

You could sell a monthly subscription where people pay you a specific amount each month to receive one or several new books each month.

Writing and publishing digital books is a fantastic business model because it can be done from home with ease and it can be taken anywhere in the world.

You can just as easily write and publish a new eBook in Sydney, Australia, as you can back home…

Or if your home is Sydney, Australia, you can just as easily write and publish a new eBook in London.

It doesn’t matter where you are, you can publish new content online and make money.

You just need to want to do it… and to make a start.

And if you believe getting started with publishing your own eBooks is hard, let me tell you that it’s not.

You can see how easy it is in The 30 Day To £30K Challenge.

In the easy to follow videos, you will watch as Andi creates his own eBook and publishes it live online within 30 days.

If he had been working on it full time instead of doing it in his spare time, he would have had it online within a week.

All of the books and manuals we have published in the past have earned £30,000 or more hence why we titled the product The 30 Day To £30K Challenge.

After 30 days you should have a product live online that has the potential to make you £30,000.

If there was ever a time to create your own passive income business publishing eBooks, today is it…

With extortionate living costs crippling Britain, is now not a good time to challenge yourself to create your own products which could possibly earn you £30,000 or more?

To a five year old who only spends money on comics and sweets, £1,052 is a lot of money… but to late teens and twentysomethings, it probably wouldn’t cover a month’s living costs.

Back in the ‘good old days’ £1,052 might have bought you a home, today you’d be lucky if it covered one month’s rent in the cheapest and roughest areas of London.

The young woman was not complaining about the gift or the amount, she was trying to say that the amount is no longer considered ‘substantial’ as it wouldn’t buy anything of real value.

It certainly wouldn’t be life changing… well, not in the normal sense.

You’d need to add another zero to that figure if you really wanted to help out with a deposit for a house or pay towards a wedding.

Today, if you want to give your family a ‘substantial’ amount of money as a gift; it really does need to be substantial.

However… £1,052 can still be life changing… it just depends on how you use it.

That amount would be a great starting bank in Betfair or IG when using a gambling or trading system.

Starting with £1,000 and focusing on making just 1% compounding growth every day, five days a week, you’d double your £1,000 within four months.

After four months of weekday compounding, you would have earned £1,353.09.

You would have doubled your initial £1,000 bank in three and a half months – if everything went smoothly of course.

If you carry on successfully growing your bank by just 1% each weekday for one whole year, you will grow £1,000 into £13,423.90… which is a lot more substantial than £1,052 don’t you think?

Okay, I am working with the best case scenario with this example.

There may be days where you do not hit your daily 1% growth target, and there may be days where you actually lose a little, no trading system is 100% successful all of the time.

But following a trading method with rigid discipline is how you grow a bank from £1,000 to many thousand pounds.

You cannot try a method or system and then give up when you have a few days where it didn’t go as hoped.

Systems work over time, not in the short-term.

Gifting £1,000 to a child or grandchild is nice, but wouldn’t it be nicer if you could gift £13,423.90 or more?

Perhaps gifting them £1,000 and then showing them how they themselves can turn it into £13,423.90 is a far better gift than the £1,000 alone.

You know the popular saying about teaching a man to fish, well, this falls nicely into that category.

Master the skill and make money for yourself and then pass on that skill to your children. Do that and they’ll be able to fish and feed themselves for years to come.

One system that is similar to the 1% method I have talked about in this article is System 903.

Roy, the man who developed System 903, made £47,000 in one year using it.

You can do this from the comfort of your own home and you can do it on your smartphone.

The only other thing you may need is a notepad and a pen to do some basic arithmetic. But you could do that on your smartphone too if you wish.

To discover how you too could make £47,000 in one year using Roy’s system, click the link below:

You could be sitting in the park taking in the scenery when you hear a ‘ping’ notifying you that you have made money.

You could be sat on your sofa watching Coronation Street – I don’t know why you would in all honesty – when you hear a ‘ping’ notifying you of another sale.

Today, you could be making money selling digital products online that, like those musicians, can be sold for many years.

Why wouldn’t you want to capitalise on something that allows you to earn a passive income while you are out and about doing other things?

I don’t know much about these musicians, I can’t say how many tracks they sell on a daily or weekly basis, but if they have a decent sized back catalogue and they let people know about them – Andi didn’t realise they had released digital versions of their tracks until he saw people talking about them on Facebook – it’s possible that they are making several sales a week.

With more and more people in their 40s and 50s finding out that these tracks are now available to buy online as digital downloads, these two musicians could possibly be making sales daily, which is not bad for work they did around 30 years ago.

With their old music selling, they have an audience who might be interested in new music which they are creating and putting online.

Andi has bought new music from several of the musicians he liked back in the 90s.

Instead of having to press records and sign to labels, musicians and producers can upload their tracks to specific platforms like Bandcamp or their own websites and sell them directly to people all around the world with an instant delivery.

What is there not to like about that?

I’ve talked about music as the example, but with music the most you can charge is £1.50 per track… with eBooks you can charge a lot more.

Depending on what the subject matter is, information focused eBooks can be sold for up to £97… especially if you offer a lot of bonuses with it which can also be simple digital products like checklists and templates.

Who wouldn’t want to be sat enjoying their day receiving notifications informing them that they have made several sales of eBooks putting money into their account… without them having to do anything?

PS… Profitable eBooks can be as little as 20 pages long and it can take a day to create an eBook that short.

There is no limit to how many eBooks you can create and sell. After one full year you could have a huge portfolio of eBooks selling online.

When you hear anything important you should always check your sources… or at least find additional information and see whether it backs-up the claim or not.

Not only is it possible that people sharing specific information have it wrong to start with and so they are unaware that what they are telling you is wrong, they may also be intentionally lying.

It’s a sad fact of life that a lot of people will lie to get what they want.

Whether it is to gain money, attract a partner, land a job, for political gain, or to  get out of trouble, people will happily lie through their teeth.

They will say what you want to hear… or what they want you to hear.

Some people take great pleasure out of ‘pulling the wool over people’s eyes’, conmen and scammers especially.

With the Billie Eilish example, it shows how you can easily ‘believe’ something when you have nothing else to work with.

And that unfortunately, is what is wrong with the world today. Far too many people are taking what they are told at face value without doing any checks.

Like Eilish, they believe what they are told from a point of not knowing any other corresponding or contradictory information… and that is how conmen, governments and organisations get their claws into you.

The less you know, the more they can manipulate you into believing what they want you to believe.

One thing that the government want you to believe is that to make money, you must go to work and tie your time up to a job… and that is simply not true.

That is just one way of making money. There are others.

One way to make money is to back ‘no hope’ football teams on Betfair.

Our good friend Stephen Lewis bags himself between £380 and £725 each week betting on specific football games.

For those living here in the UK, those earnings are TAX FREE.

All he needs is a smartphone or a tablet.

Here’s why he wins more money than most people… he picks teams that are not considered to be the favourites by most people… but are highly likely to win.

To pick his winning selections, Stephen visits a free website, looks at 3 tables and compares 4 numbers.

That’s it!

Some quick and basic arithmetic using a calculator gives Stephen a list of teams that he can back… at higher odds than those given to the favourites that the majority back.

Which means one thing… you win more money.

In one example Stephen made £141.32 backing teams everyone else expected to lose.

Out of a selection of 9 teams, he had a 56% win rate… but because of the HIGHER odds, he was able to make a £141.32 profit on the day… that is after any losses had been accounted for.

Had he traded those same games betting on the strong favourites, Stephen would have just broke even… but he didn’t, he won £141.32 because he chose to back the expected losers… although he expected them to win… which they did.

If you would like to know more about Stephen’s incredibly simple system where he makes guaranteed profits by simply taking a quick look at 3 tables and comparing 4 numbers, go to:

The Kamikaze System

Kind Regards

John Harrison

PS… Stephen also uses a little known button in Betfair which locks in profit taking away any need to sit and monitor the game he is trading.

This is a safety switch which means that should the team that everyone expects to lose, does actually lose, Stephen still walks away with a profit.

Very few people know about or use this button. I didn’t know about it until I was told.

When he clicks the button and sets up his profit lock, he is free to completely forget about the game.

Thanks to that button, his trading becomes a SET and FORGET system.

The Kamikaze System

Andi, our techy guy, once told us that his uncle Brian, a carpenter that Andi worked with, would go to the local pub two or three evenings during the week to ‘network’.

His wife was less impressed at the answer ‘I’m going to find work’ while moaning that he was spending too much time at the pub, but the truth is, a lot of his work would come from the pub.

He was regularly seen by other pub goers and every time he was in the pub chatting, it reminded people that he was ‘around’ and so whenever they or someone else needed any carpentry work doing, he was often the first person they would go to.

The pub regularly became his office with people walking up to him saying things like ‘Brian, I need a couple of doors fitting, are you busy? Could you come and take a look and give me a price?’

There was more going on in The Elm Cottage for Brian than simply enjoying a few pints. He would walk home with possible work booked in the diary.

I’ve written about the Six Degrees of Separation before. It is also known as the Six Handshake Rule.

The Six Degrees of Separation states that you are only six social contacts away from the people you need or want to meet.

That means that you can find decent clients and customers by talking to people around you because one or several of them will know someone who also knows someone that could make you a lot of money or change your life.

You can amplify that by networking with the right people as Colin did when he was looking for copywriting clients.

You should never underestimate the power of small talk and chatting to new people.

People have landed their dreams jobs by simply taking the time out to talk to strangers who happened to be looking for the right person to fill a position in their company.

Effective communication is incredibly powerful as is ‘getting out there’ and ‘being seen’.

You have no idea what another person can do for you or your life. They may know someone who could be worth millions to you.

There are people like Colin the copywriter (admit it, you thought I was going to say Colin the caterpillar, didn’t you?) who earn thousands of pounds working for just one client where others are having to work for loads of clients to earn the same amount of money, all because he took the time to figure out where his ideal clients were and went to find them.

Like a fisherman, he found out where the best ponds and rivers were that were teeming with fish and he went there and dangled multiple baited hooks.

Conversation is powerful… and knowing what to say, how to say it and when can be the difference between earning a few pounds per job and earning tens of thousands of pounds per job.

It certainly is the difference between selling hundreds or thousands of copies of a product making tens of thousands of pounds and making just a handful of sales.

Learning to write a sales letter is to learn how to communicate effectively.

Knowing how to write an effective sales letter, email and article can make you a lot of money in a world where publishing information is big business…   and it is big business.

There will always be information publishers, and there will always be a need for copywriters like Colin.

A simple sales letter which can take as little as a few hours to write could easily earn you £1,000 or more with the right client and as you now know, finding the right clients can be as simple as networking with a few people in the right industry.

Also, knowing how to write profitable sales letters means that you can write sales letters for your own products and services earning you tens of thousands of pounds or more in sales.

One Letter From Retirement

I am not sure where people stand legally as they are selling a trademarked pattern, but I don’t believe there is a law against taking old (and new) products, dismantling them and reusing the parts to make something new… at least not with clothing and bags.

People have been doing it for years.

A lot of people go to charity shops and thrift stores looking for used clothing and shoes which they modify into something new.

I know someone who used to buy canvas trainers and baseball caps and then paint characters on them. He would then sell the trainers for over £100 a pair.

One year he made £10,000 from that little side venture of his.

As long as the person who is making the watch straps don’t try and pass them off as ‘made by Gucci’ and state that the material is sourced from used bags, then I believe they should be fine.

If you are unsure, I suggest that you consult with a lawyer who specialises in trademarked and protected retail products.

I imagine that the watch strap maker is now inundated with orders after that video. The woman who made the video has 82,300 followers. That’s not a bad piece of free advertising is it?

So…like these watch straps made from used handbags, is there something new that you can make from something used?

Another great thing about watch straps is that they are small and can easily be popped into a jiffy bag and sent through the post.

Products that require little work are ideal for a second income.

Etsy is a great place to sell products.

In previous articles I have talked about people who make thousands of pounds selling digital products and printables.

Digital products require little work once they are online selling.

People sell digital products such as eBooks on Etsy because there are a lot of people who regularly browse the platform.

EBooks can be sold on Amazon Kindle, Etsy, Gumroad as well as from your own website.

Once published to these platforms, people can buy them at any time of the day or night.

They sit there online waiting for someone to come along and buy them.

Like baited hooks dangling in a stream teeming with fish.

You create an eBook once, and then sell it thousands of times for many years.

One eBook has the potential to make you £30,000 or more… depending on the subject matter of course.

The production, collection and delivery of power needs to be paid for, I understand that, but is it right that vulnerable people can be plunged into darkness, unable to stay warm and eat and drink something warm?

For me, the point that most people are missing is that it is far easier to make money when specific conditions are favourable.

I won’t go into Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs theory too much, but it states that when a person is relatively comfortable, they are able to focus their attention and efforts on better things… like making money.

When a person is cold and hungry, their first priority is to find food and warmth, not go and get their hair done.

When people have no gas or electricity and short on funds, those basic needs can force some to steal or forage for food and burn wood or rubbish to keep warm… speculating on the markets is the last thing they will consider.

When a person is at their lowest and struggling to scrape together enough money to pay the bills, it takes enormous amount of discipline, motivation and effort to come out on top.

It can be done, but it is incredibly hard.

Now, I believe that you are not in a situation that dire… well I hope not!

As a reader of my articles, you should know a thing or two about money management and future proofing.

If the government won’t step in and help people who are struggling to pay for the basics, then the next best thing is to teach people to actively take steps to protect their future.

Maybe this should be taught at school instead of expecting them to do more maths.

Basic arithmetic is vital, but for most of the population, understanding algebra etc, is not.

There are more important life skills – and life truths – that people need to be taught.

One truth I think people need to be taught is to create a least one other income stream that pays your bills.

This income stream ideally wants to be passive, or as passive as possible.

Bills such as gas, water, and electricity should be covered so that should any problems unexpectedly crop up in life, you don’t have to fear having them cut-off and leaving you in a far worse situation.

If you can earn enough to cover rent or mortgage as well, even better. The fear of losing your home is not good either.

Hitting rock bottom may motivate a few to fight back hard and win, but for most people it is simply soul destroying and crippling.

A second passive or semi-passive income is a must.

There are many ways to make money today that you can set up from home for little money, but one of the best is publishing your own eBooks and digital courses.

There is some work involved at the beginning, but you could start this for round £100.

If you only publish eBooks to Amazon Kindle you could possibly start for free.

Yes, there is a little work involved, but once you have the system set in place, have several eBooks published that are selling well, you will be making money passively.

You only need to make the product once and it can then be sold for many years giving you a passive income.
