September Income Report

September had a pick up in client work. Not much else changed in terms of making money online. However, I have historically made the most with client and an additional client should help with revenue.

Also, I went back to Ohio to close on another business deal. While there, Hurricane Florence hit North Carolina, so I stayed in Ohio for about 3 weeks. Since most of my time was away, I didn’t focus on selling anything on Amazon or eBay since I wouldn’t be around to ship anything.

August Income Report

I really haven’t made a ton of progress since the last income report. August didn’t do much to increase the revenue, but it did set up next month to do quite well. I landed another client, and closed on the business that I have been looking at for a while now. It was based on the first deal I did years ago. The month started with a few Amazon sales, but then fell flat, however.

Selling Packaged Work To Get Clients

In order to generate some new client work, I started offering some packages. The plan is to offer a standard amount of work that I can easily quote a price on and complete. Something that I can throw up a Buy It Now button without having to have a discussion first about all the requirements and goals.

The idea is basically to eliminate custom development and just focus on standard pages most people need. I will also be including some more marketing and SEO related services, as well. The plan is to use each to promote the others, so I can do an ecommerce site, plus SEO. If you already have a site, I can just do the SEO.

New Client Deal is in the Works

Trying to increase client work to help get the income levels up. I have been talking to several clients, but all of them were taking a while to develop, or would sputter out at the end. However, I finally landed a new client.

It was a bit of a rocky takeoff. Things started off questioning whether or not I could even be a remote contractor. Early signs pointed to them really looking for an employee to join their team and sit in their offices.

June Income Report

This is the first income report since the daily report I did a couple years ago. The plan here is to list the money I actually received, not counting investments, such as the real estate.

This would mean that any hours worked before June, but weren’t paid until June would be counted. Same goes for any expense that I received the benefit of before June, but didn’t have to actually pay until June.

Shirt Selling Strategy Update 1

Here’s the first update from the shirt selling strategy. Getting the site set up seemed easy, but there were a lot of minor issues that popped up along the way. Once that was working, getting everything over to eBay and Amazon had problems. Right now, I am mainly focused on the paid designs since I have money tied up into getting them designed that I feel obligated to push these through first.

T-Shirt Selling Strategy

I have been selling shirts for awhile, but started to get more serious about it. I figured I should document what my strategy is along with how things are turning out. Plus, doing this is more inline with my posting strategy on more complete posts. So I will cover everything for thinking up designs, actually creating the designs, getting them printed, selling channels, and marketing plan.
