Tonight Only, Self Publisher Tips, Need Motivation to Keep Going in This Business? I've Got You!
Published: Sun, 08/23/20
Hope you're having a great Sunday! I'm mired in cleaning. How do animals shed so much? It looks like I have another pet after cleaning up so much of their hair behind my desk. I can't wait for delivery of my new office furniture but I'm not real thrilled with a delivery window of 7 AM to 11. Who is up at that hour? Not me. I'm a late sleeper, so now I'm contemplating staying up all night rather than subjecting myself to 3 hours of sleep.
Okay some great stuff for you today! If you haven't checked it out yet, make sure you go see my latest Diabetic Immune System Solutions PLR sale going on right now - priced super cheap for 4 more days only.
Self Publisher Tips
I just read a really neat 29-page PDF called Book Reviver 2021. It's by Paul Coleman and this one was PERFECT for me and many of you.This is for self publishing authors who are EITHER publishing fiction OR non fiction. Both work for this combined concept.
In it, Paul covers a few concepts I don't want to give away - but all of them are geared to gaining attention and increasing sales. It's hard for me to review this without giving away his concepts, so I won't. I'll just say I enjoyed the ideas and examples and lessons and I plan to use them in BOTH my online marketing business AND my fiction pursuits.

Need Motivation to Keep Going in This Business? I've Got You!
Below, I'm about to lovingly motivate you - and by that I mean kick your butt, but I want you to know I do it out of the fact that I believe in your ability to succeed. I'm not here to shame you, but to inspire you - to force you to open your eyes and see your potential. To take action. To be a go getter rather than a procrastinating, fearful or lazy person. (I've been all three at once at times, so I know this feeling).I was going to insert a meme from Bird Box with that guy holding the woman's eyes open but it always creeps me out. LOL! So just SEE your own potential, okay?
So first, since people love numbers, let me show you this month's earnings from a single business model on Warrior Plus this month (note: I have multiple business models that earn me money, including affiliate sites, fiction, etc.):
That's from selling and promoting PLR. Mostly sales of my own PLR. It's a very lucrative business model - why? Because people HATE writing. They want it done for them and ghostwriting is expensive - you can pay $10 or more for decent quality per page. PLR only costs $1 per page at FULL price, and half that during a launch.
So it gets gobbled up. But since there's more than 1 buyer, it pays off for me, too. Win-win for everyone. No work for the buyer, one time work and multiple sales for me.
Now I didn't get here with the first launch. It doesn't work that way. I started writing 5 page PLR packs in 2006, 14 years ago. Yesterday I launched my 899th pack of PLR, which means I've averaged 64 packs per year. (Although it's probably less than that now since I do big launches rather than small 5-packs put up on the site). I'm so proud that I'll hit 900 packs on my next release! And I'm proud that my total PLR members have gotten their money's worth and I haven't let them down as so many others do with memberships.
Over time, I've accumulated loyal customers and affiliates who have built my list and sent sales, allowing me to enjoy a steady six figure income year after year.
If I had been like MOST people, I would have launched my first few 5-packs, and barely made enough to cover the electric bill, and quit - moving on to some other get rich quick idea everyone was talking about.
What made me stick with it? I used a skill I knew I was good at - writing, and worked on developing my own system (speed, slants, targeting topics I knew my buyers could easily monetize). I saw income multiplying every time I posted a new pack. They'd come for the new pack, but add on more.
I made sure quality was the crux of my business, not quantity. I've seen many scammers make a lot on a single launch of really bad PLR, but they don't keep loyal buyers for long. They have to reinvent themselves as some new business name year after year. It's pathetic. And it must be stressful, too.
Some packs flopped hard. I went to a lot of effort and very few people bought. Did I throw up my hands and move to something else? Something where Mr. Guru was saying there was a cheap, push-button method to rake in six figures in a week? No. I stayed the course. I looked at what I'd done wrong. Was I lazy with sales copy? Did I pick the wrong topic? Did I procrastinate and not have time to recruit affiliates?
If you can't shine a light on your failures, you won't go far. You have to be able to get blunt. You also have to be able to recognize when you're being stupidly stubborn. I do that a LOT. I'll say "I hate OTOs!" and go years without doing them, only to finally do it against my will for an affiliate and see thousands more dollars come in because guess what? I'm not everybody! Many others LOVE the additional discounted opportunity. I was just a cheapskate.
While it's important to listen to others, it's also important to do things your way and keep your ethics intact. I don't reciprocate and yes, it's uncomfortable sometimes to decline to promote someone who's nice but whose products are just not good. But I do it. Because I'm not trying to protect that person's feelings. I'm thinking of MY subscribers who are often on a budget and I really paint a picture of their lives and I don't want them wasting money on things that are awful. I want them to buy something and go, "Wow! This is great - I can trust Tiff."
Am I saying YOU need to sell PLR? No. That may not be your skill or your passion. But whatever you DO end up doing, do it for a long time. Not a week or a month. It takes time to build up a significant income in this business. I think in my first year as a ghostwriter I only made about $7,000. I had to work for someone offline (from home, but not an online company - I was data entrying for them) for a couple of years before I went fulltime online.
Then I evolved. You need to know how you'll elevate your business over time. Starting point, next level, top tier, and expansion. So for instance, you might start off as an affiliate marketer for diabetes products on Amazon. Great place to begin! What's next? Maybe you expand and start promoting digital products, too. As a top tier business, maybe you WRITE your own info product. And as an expansion, maybe you go into a related niche, like fitness or weight loss or you become a nutrition coach or something.
I wish you could peek into my head 14 years ago and see where I was when I would release a 5-pack and sell it for $5 and make $35 on it. I was happy, but it didn't pay the bills. It DID however, power me to create the next 5 pack and the next. Buyers would stop by my PLR Mini Mart and buy 2-3 packs at a time, not just one. Then I wondered what a 20-pack would do, a real launch, etc. It snowballed.
But it took time and consistency.
Those are two words NO marketer wants to hear, but it's true. Service providing is instant, so if you'r desperate, work for others. But keep building YOUR empire. Week after week, month after month, and year after year. I remember when my CPA told me I hit six figures I was ecstatic. My next goal is 7 figures, but not with PLR. I can't create and launch fast enough to do that.
So I'm using fiction as the business model to power me there. We'll see how it goes. The farthest I got before was 2 short stories and 2 Kindle books that paid my mortgage. That was cool, but I was in a genre that bored me. So I quit. Now I'm powering up again in a genre I actually read.
Anyway, keep at it. If you feel like quitting think of my 899 packs and $25k/month from one stream and kick your own butt.
That's it for me today - y'all have a great rest of your day!
Tiff ;)
