No Work? I just created a job for myself and you can too!

No Work?  I just created a job for myself and you can too!

A little personal stuff about me…

I’ve been missing in action for awhile now.  Actually, I’ve been dabbling in a few other niches…but most importantly, I took a small break to rethink things and decide what I would really like to do online.   The internet marketing niche can be quite competitive and I started to feel like I wanted to do something a little different.

I find it quite odd that I created a website entitled, “MommyRevenue.com” when in reality, I’m not that enticed with money and wealth.  After all, I have riches awaiting me in Heaven that are far more valuable than any earthly riches. God has abundantly blessed, in fact, my hubby and I paid off all our debts three years ago and last year paid off our house.

I also have three boys with whom I have a great time playing Monopoly and love playing with the “fake money” that affords us the delight of  buying and selling property without “real” money worries.  Of course, mom makes them tell the “banker” (that’s me) how much I owe them back when they purchase property, that way I they practice math at the same time.

When I created this site though…

It wasn’t with the with the intention of making a lot of money, but instead that I would be sharing with moms all that I’ve learned about online marketing and share resources that would help them work online in order to stay home with their kids.  I didn’t want to be just a WAHM site selling advertising online.  I wanted to offer some real information here.

For those of you who know me, I’ve been interested in affiliate marketing for quite some time.  The reason behind this is that I’m a Christian wife and mom who has priorities that come first.  I hate the thought of being tied down to the computer (although, it seems like I’m there much too often. lol)

Affiliate marketing appeals to me because…

I don’t have to worry about creating my own products or stress about providing customer service or shipping products. I’ve been afforded the opportunity to cash in time and time again on products that I’ve long ago promoted but still receive income from.   If  only I would stay more focused, I’d be earning a lot more…

The main problem that causes me to get distracted is…

I have a creative side to me that doesn’t seem to get fulfilled.  I can’t seem to sit still.  I love creating another website or working on a new project.  In fact, I would make a great website flipper and know plenty of women who are making a nice income do so.

I would also make a great freelancer, as I’ve had success in writing…won a few awards in high school, in fact.

But, overall, I still am intrigued with “marketing” niche for some reason.  I always thought it would be sort of neat to be an affiliate manager, in fact, there are some women affiliate managers who are quite good at this job…but I hated the thought of tying myself down to work for someone else on any set schedule.

The perfect fit for me…

After long thought, I decided to create my own job and become an affiliate manager working for myself.  In fact, I’m giving all future weekends off!  lol

It’s a mix of all that I love with working online:  affiliate marketing, helping others earn money online, creating new projects and launching new products.

A short while back, I took one of my old domains and created an affiliate training center at MommyAffiliates.com

Today I just launched a new product, TrainingDogsRevealed.com,  which is an 80 page ebook jam packed with information and written by a dog trainer with 20 years experience.   I’m generally giving all affiliates 75% and second tier affiliates 5%.

Those who also join MommyAffiliates.com will receive additional tools and marketing support.  Also, you’ll be notified of new releases.  I plan to cover quite a few niches.

A lesson learned…

If you can’t find work online, consider creating your own work.

1.   Decide what you like to do and create your own business.

2.  Fulfill a need.  There are tons of online marketers who need content, web design, an extra hand with customer support etc.  Find a way to help solve a problem and make someone’s life easier and you’ll create yourself a job!
