Free Download (7 Steps to Making Money Online)

I whipped up a short guide on making money online, you can download it here. Being that I'm broke all the time no matter how much money I get I figured I would share with you some of the ways I make money online.

It's a small pdf and while it does contain some affiliate products they come after the free information if anyone is interested in them please order from my links, as I've been unemployed sense February 2016 and still have not found a full-time job plus my last unemployment check will be in next week, a whole $125 and I can't file again until March 2017.

Check out my website Bloggingtotheworld.com which will be under-going a redesign to make it more user friendly.

You know I got to make this a little different every time I post it, which is five time so far on five different blogs of mine.

Going Picking This Weekend In Mobile Alabama

 This weekend my wife and I are going to be hitting some flea markets, thrift stores, good wills, and other shops and yard sales around Mobile, Jackson, and Thomasville Alabama. The idea is to find a few good items to sell online on eBay and other sites, I am hoping to have a few listing up on eBay by this Monday and everything listed by Friday.

 I have not tried to sell anything online in years so if anyone stumbles across this post please buy my auctions I'll add links to this post as I post them on eBay. Well we went but it was a slime haul, all we got were some old comics, some china, an old Evan Williams Bottle, a music box that needs a minor repair and should be worth a few bucks, and a book.

 I think the trip cost me more than I can make but we had fun. Well I say that but I have not priced any of the comics I got around 56 good comics of 59 for twenty dollars which even if I only get one dollar each I make some profit.

 Anyway I made a little money over the weekend with some eBay auction that sold almost as fast as I could list them. So sense everything seems to be selling quickly I'm not going to post links to my auctions here but if you would like to check out any auctions that I may have up please do so by clicking here.

Boxshot Software for eBooks and Software

 Alright I've tried this software a couple of times it's called Box Shot King and it's very simple to use but I didn't have a need for it yet because I'm still working on my ebooks and don't even have a title for one of them yet so there was really no need to create a cover yet. However when I'm ready to produce and package my ebooks then I'll definitely use this software.



 If your interested in creating your own ebook covers using easy software online then this is for you and if its for you then Click Here! it's that easy.

Some Other Income Methods

 Alright after a little break I came up with a few more ways to earn a passive income, granted these will take some time and effort but can be a good source of income over a span of time depending on a few things like content, traffic, etc. Anyway lets get started on this little list.

1. Social Following | Build a large social following by using methods like Facebook, Twitter, Snap Chat, Instagram, Vine, YouTube, Google+, Tumblr, etc. You can parlay your large following keep growing it and use it to make offers and to promote stuff don't flood your followers with every offer you come across but only a select few maybe one a day. This can be something from an affiliate, or something you create yourself.
2. Design Your Own Product | If your have the skill to design your own product this can be a great income method even more so if you can produce the product yourself. Make small test sales and collect feedback before moving into mass production.
3. Buy/Sell/Trade | This involves finding items at low cost that you can turn around and sale for a profit or even trade for something you want more. It's kind of a win/win.
4. Sell Your Self | More like pimping yourself out to people to help them with different tasks around their home or land, you can help clean, do laundry, gut grass, paint, just about any task that your able to preform. This is not for sexual services that can get you some jail time.
5. Social Media Manager | Do you know some business that kind of promote of social media in a lazy way and not doing very well. Well if your a social media master you can talk with these businesses and perhaps even work out a profitable arrangement where you do all their social marketing and give it a little flair.
6. Flipping Items | Almost anything can be flipped for a profit but if your a person who has been paid of gifted large sums of guns, knives, swords, etc. or can acquire them at low cost then why not make a profit from them. 
7. Write A Book | This can take some time but depending on you market and topic can be very profitable. This is one that I can't see myself doing because my writing sucks.
8. Attention Services | No not a sexual service this is a service where you are paid to meet people to talk, or listen, maybe even play games with them or give them a shoulder to cry on and they pay you for your time. Another one I can't see myself doing but if your that kind of charismatic person then go for it. 
9. Coaching | Not as in your local baseball team but if your good at playing the stock market, or have other skills that few others have you can charge to be a success coach in your field.
10. Event Planner | If your good at planning events you can make a few bucks in this field you'll just need a good list of provides for different needs and maybe even find a few that will do the jobs for a little less if you deal with them only allowing you to pocket a larger profit.

 Well that's all for this post the next couple will be reviews of for some affiliate products, so please read over them and if your interested in the product click on the link to order it, This way I'll get a few cents or bucks depending on the product.

IDEAS ON INCOME SOURCES SO FAR

 While I look online and out in the real world for a new job I've come up with a short list of ten things I can do right now to start producing income. A few of them may take a couple thousand dollars to get the ball rolling in the right direction so with out and delay lets get started...

1. Affiliate Marketing | which is what this blog will mainly be focused on, but I'll also let you know if I have any success in these other areas.
2. Estate Sales, Gurage Sales, Auctions | the idea is to buy items that are worth more then I will have to pay for them then resale them on eBay or Crags List for a profit.
3. Scrap | find sources of scrap and collect enough of it every month to sale at the end of the month for a little extra cash.
4. Service Business | this can be anything really like hauling off junk for people or picking of their groceries or medicine, etc.
5. Match Up Service | find jobs that need to be done, then find someone with the skills to do it at a fairly low price then contact the job provider and work out a price where you'll make a profit, once a price is set let them know that you are interested and will get back in touch with them later today. Next check with the person with the skills and see when would be a good time for them to do the job. Lastly contact the provide and let them know when the job will be done, request half the money upfront and half when the job is done depending on what the job is.
6. Posting | articles and pictures can be posted online and you can get paid when people can use them. This can be a good source of income if your a creative person with a passion for writing or taking pictures.
7. Writing | write articles, short stories or even books on any topics that you know about this can be anything really like ghost stories, fantasy, how-to do something, romance, etc.
8. Teach | now a job at a school teaching my not be the best paying but if you have special skills that others you can teach others you can charge them to learn them. Say if you are really good at digital photography, drawing, wood working, making money, etc. then set up a little class that you can offer to teach on different days of the week or video it and put up a paid video series.
9. Product Moving | charge stories to move products that they can't sell, start on a small scale maybe work out a deal with a couple of stores where you can acquire the products for free or low cost and they get a cut of the profit when items sell.
10. Craigs List Flipping | yeah like flipping a house only for a much lower investment you can buy some items on Craigs List and relist them for a profit, it doesn't mater if its a $2 profit or a $2000 profit any profit is better then none.

 Oh and as I was typing this a couple more ideas popped into my wee little mind, depending on state and local laws dumpster diving my be a profitable side source of income, just go behind any store like a Dollar Store, Book Store, Office Max, Lowes, etc and take a peak at what is in the dumpsters sometimes you can find some really good stuff that because it was packaged wrong can't be sold in the store and has to be tossed out, even books that are no longer in print or has some minor damage may be tossed, slightly damage wood may be tossed also or bent metal. These items can almost always be resold by you online and any money will be all profit because you acquire them for free.

 I do suggest staying away from food items and medical items these things have dates on them for a reason, and you don't want to sell expired food or medical items to someone and they end up getting sick from it, one law suit will quickly make you wish you've never sold anything in your whole life,

 Lastly find products and services that are just for churches and schools, and target that market only these can be anything from Bibles, seating, windows, carpet, paint, software, etc. or for schools low cost used text books and refurbished computers/laptops.

 That's all for now please leave any suggestions in the comments below, I'm planning to do some YouTube videos and maybe even some social marketing to help build my traffic you can help if you like.     

NO MORE JOB!

 Hi! My name is Robert H. Atchison Jr. and as of February 2nd 2016 I no longer have a job a American Commercial Barge Lines after 20 years of service. I left on my own for various reasons but the company was a good place to work and the money was nice at over 100k per year for the past seven years or so and it gave me plenty of time off to do other things none of which really panned out, so here I sit at home looking all over the Internet for ways to make money so I can pay out bills, support my wife, kids, and mother-in-law plus our four dogs ugh.

 It's not going to be an easy thing because I have to find some low cost medical and dental insurance just in case people get sick or a tooth ache while I look for another job where I can work for another 20 years and draw retirement form two different companies which was and still is the plan, unless I can find some other sources of income that will make me change my mind because while I do enjoy the freedom I have right now without having to go in to work on a set date and time.

 There is just something about being able to work on what I want when I want like blogging, taking pictures with my DSR camera, researching stuff, making plans for visiting people, and even a few estate sales with hopes of reselling the items for a profit if we buy anything. By the time my last couple of pay checks and income tax refund comes in and if I have to cash in my 401k I should have enough money to live on for a year or two but I really need some success online and off.

 So on this blog I will be reviewing some products that I use which just so happen to have affiliate programs so I can get paid if anyone buys through one of my links which is not required you can search for any of these products online and pay someone else. So without wasting any more time lets get stared with the next post shall we.

 Also if you have any good income suggestions please leave them in the comments below and please nothing that is going to cost me hundreds of dollars as I have a very limited income right now hence the free blog here on Blogger and not my own website which will not be renewed soon.
