Monday Madness
This is basically a shotgun post. I’ve got a few things to talk about so I’ll just get right to it.
First, I have updated my “Advertise” page. There are tons of options and they are all cheap! And just in case you’ve missed it, I have finally made it into the TOP 100 over at 45n5 (#93 to be exact!)..woohoo! Oops, am I allowed to say woohoo on a money making blog? Okay, back to the advertising stuff. You can purchase reviews, plugs, and more so be sure to check it out!
Second, I have been getting bombarded with emails (100-300 not including spam) lately, many of which ask me tons of questions from requesting a “mini” review to how to monetize better to designing headers & banners. I am extremely flattered by this but it has come to the point where something needs to change. In fact, if I had some blog led tail lights, they would be bright red from me stomping on the breaks!…lol.
I have decided to do 3 things.
- Setup a F&Q. I’m hoping by doing this, I can redirect people to previous articles I’ve written that I feel may help their situation. I will also be answering some of the more common questions that I
receive on a daily basis. - Coaching. I never thought I would say that word but it’s something that needs to be put in place. I am all about helping others but there comes a point that I just either have to say no, or set up some kind of schedule and distribute my time accordingly. Yes there will be a rate sheet but it won’t be priced like I’ve seen other coaches. Why? Because most of you can’t afford it. I needed a coach at one time but was unable to provide the funding. I still wish I could have done it because I think I would have learned a great deal but so far I’m doing okay. I really hope that people don’t take this as a selfish action but I run 5 blogs, manage 3 kids, the home, ranch life, and my own passions. I just don’t have time to do this full time without getting some sort of compensation.
- Creating ebooks. I actually have been looking into this already but think it’s time to step it up. The ebooks will cover an array of topics including: affiliate programs, how-to’s, monetization, & more. I think this will really help folks out and understand things much better.
Third, I have put up a new auction widget in my sidebar. This plugin is called WP Auctionand is currently in beta mode. I am very excited about it because it has various uses. What I mean, is you could use it to sell just stuff, ebooks, advertising, or whatever your brain can come up with. I am running an auction right now for the “how to” gift card offers. Not only do I include the instructions that are found at this blog, I also list the companies I deal with that I feel are trustworthy. So if this interests you, then I hope you consider bidding. Wondering about me as a seller? Check out my ebay-feedback to help you feel more secure with me and my auctions. You can also read more about what I have for sale at my personal blog.
Final thoughts:
I would love to hear your opinions on my ideas above, especially the F&Q, coaching, and ebooks. I really hope that I haven’t or don’t offend anyone with these decisions but I have to do something. Please don’t think I’m going to just stop answering questions. Please send them in and I will do my best to get to them, it’s just that it may take longer than normal because of everything I have on my plate right now. Well, I guess that’s it for now so lemme hear what you have to say!

Nice plan you have made…Anyway, you don’t have to feel guilty with coaching. We only have 2 hands, 10 fingers, 2 legs, 2 eyes, 1 lip and 24 hours a day. So, that’s way there is priority. I will not think it as selfish.
