Getting Ready To Get Back to IM
I have been thinking more and more about internet marketing. I a getting ready to get back to IM. Right now our IM income varies from about $150 to $225 a month for doing nothing. This comes from work done in the past. It is sort of “residual income”.
The time has come to start increasing that again. I have had to work hard selling on Ebay to meet our expenses, but we are even with the board and I could take a couple hours a day and devote them to working on websites and internet marketing income.
Sharon and I have been talking about this. With IM we have the product in our heads and simply have to use the computer to get it to market. With Ebay we have to keep coming up with more things to sell (we have plenty at the moment). The problem with our Ebay sales is we do not have a consistent high dollar product we are selling. Our income depends on long days of hard work to make a living.
We do not mind long days and hard work, but once a day is done selling on Ebay, that is it. One shot, one payment. Tomorrow we have to start over again and then again and again and again. With internet marketing the work we do today keeps paying month after month. That $200 I talked about above is work done months ago and some a few years ago. The income keeps coming in even when we are not working.
This is the reason I believe it is time to start working at internet marketing more seriously and develop it into our primary source of income.
