My Story So Far Archives

Hey there,

Well it has been a pretty exciting week in the world of solo ads for me!

I have sold some solos and had a $300 day and 2 $100 days since starting to sell them!

This is now pretty sustainable as I am also buying solo ads with the money I am making so I will be able to sell more and more solo ads!

I’ve Sold My First Solo Ad!!!

Whoop Whoop!!!

That’s right, I have sold my first solo ad!

In fact I sold 4!

I put a post in the Solo Swap Syndicate Facebook Group saying I was ready to sell my first solo and before I could click my fingers I had sold 4 of them!!

You know what this means now though don’t you!

I can now start buying solo ads as well which will keep my numbers increasing!

Incredible Week In The World Of Solo Ads!

Hey there,

Well this week has certainly been awesome for this side of my business!

Tuesday I hit my first 100 new subscriber day and that was repeated on Wednesday just 2 short of 200 and then Thursday hit and I was at over 250 new subscribers in a day!

At the time of posting this I am sat at just 28 for the day but I expect that to grow as I have some swaps coming in later in the day.

So I guess you want to know how I hit these numbers without spending any money!

The Solo Ad Business Is Growing!

Well its another week inside this fabulous world of solo ads and things are really starting to pick up now!

My clicks have grown from 20 clicks per message up to 30 clicks per message and next week I can see it growing way beyond that!

I know it is still small fry really but as you know I am doing this with zero investment (apart from the domain, hosting, autoresponder and link tracking tools) I am not buying any traffic so things are taking longer than some people.

Solo Ads Click Tracking Tools

Hi again,

This week I completely forgot about posting here. Mainly because I organised all of my solo ads at the beginning of the week and then just forgot about them! Obviously I checked my stats to make sure I was delivering what I was promising and vise versa. As well as checking my conversions (Over 60% still!!)

However because I am still wanting to build this business for as little money as possible I am really struggling to increase my click numbers… I thought I would be a great testimonial to show people that you can build a solo ad business without investing any money but at the moment it is proving very tricky!

Scheduled Posts To Free Up Time

Hi there,

I have just started making use of scheduled posts within WordPress. I know I am so behind the times! :)

So even though you are reading this now I actually wrote it a few days ago!

This is something I will be doing more and more so I can block out some time each week to write a couple of blog posts and then schedule them to be published at a later date!

Hi again,

I know I promised to post on here more frequently in my last post but things have been a bit crazy in my world! I have about 11 projects going on at the moment and I had to take a day out just to plan and organize everything!

Thankfully I now have everything planned out and some of the projects have been put on temporary hold while I get these first ones up and running and paying me.

So lets get into the issue at hand. Offline events

Grow Yourself To Grow Your Business

Hey again, thanks for stopping by.

I wrote that title with just a basic idea of what I wanted to talk about today and it wasn’t until I realised that I had just taken the title of my first book and swapped it around a bit.

I wrote Build Your Business, Build Yourself back in 2011 and it was all about the mechanics of an online business. Basically a quick start guide of everything you should have in place for an online business.

The Year For Building Your Own Business

So 2013 is well under way now, we have got past the most miserable day of the year (statistically the 2nd Monday of the new year) so it can only get better from here!

get better

Things can only get better

So now we are past that point what are you going to do to make sure you have a cracking 2013?

Are you going to finally start that small business of your own and try to quit your full time job that you hate or are you just going to carry on living life for the weekend where you have a two day escape?

Pre Christmas Wind Down

Well Christmas is nearly here and most of you are probably taking some time away from your businesses for the festive period.

The question is what have you put in place to make sure your business keep on paying you while you close your computers down?

For me I am not actually taking time off as I have decided to do a product launch on Boxing Day! The plan is to have everything done and ready on Christmas eve so I can take a day off before I launch. Although I will still probably be online drumming up interest on Christmas day, all the hard work has to be done before.
