Creeping up.....

I've sold another CD-rom and another fudge book ($14.50) so my total would be $94.50.
I went in to town recently to do the shopping & other stuff, so I went out to a place called the SuperShed. It's where all the "stuff" that people throw out, gets re-claimed and sold.

Anyway, they have acres of LPs so I thought I'd check them out.
I got 22 records including a Beatles produced single pressed in NZ and lots of DGG records. All for $4.50 !!

I figured there might be some good ones there as the classical LP market seems to be a booming niche. Just check out the records section on eBay and look for DGG.

I figure even if I get $5 each (thats only $3.50USD) then I'll have another $110 which will take me to the next level :)

Thanks to Gerard over at "Double Your Way to a Million", I've also read a really interesting article on Bum Marketing.
Essentially, you write articles (250-1000 words) and submit them to ezine and article banks. The money maker ? Pop in affiliate links to clickbank products.
If you are not allowed, simply put a link to a place where you have the "unabridged article" !
1 report a day is not hard to do.

If you'd like to see what I've written about (Niche eBay markets) you can see my first 2 reports here; Auction Resource

And the Bum Marketing pages can be found HERE
This is great as it is free and no risk...just need a moderately functioning brain...

WooHoo !!! Step 15 is here :D

I just sold another $12 worth ( 1 CD-ROM and one Playstation Cheats book) so that puts me at $80 !
And I thought I'd give myself another few days...!!

The day just got better...CHOCOLATE !
Check the site out by clicking the banner below who doesn't love chocolate ?!!

Zooloot Delicious Chocolate Bar

Money coming in now !

So, since yesterday I have sold 4 more items.
My total is now officially $68.19 (That's in the bank account set aside for this ).
I have 3 sales payments to come in.

Also, I should add that, as the "rules" state, I have taken all expenses out including listing/selling fees, currency exchange, ink, paper ect...

While I was doing my usual reading per day online, I found this guys site He actually offers quite a few free resources, including a very good ebook.
Just thought I'd add the link as I found the free eBook quite good :D

'till next time...

More sold today...

So anyway, I bought from my stake in step 13 enough cd's, covers, ink & mailers to account for 100 cds (this cost $30 including shipping ect...).

I have now sold 3 LM Montgomery CD-ROMs at $9 each after fees.
I've also sold 3 copies of my Fudge Heaven eBook at $3 each after fees.
Plus an extra $12 worth of eBooks on PSP, Playstation Repair, Playstation Cheats and X-box cheats.

So the current total is $48.19 !
And I'm now selling more everyday :)
I have to admit, Trademe has been the best for the CD-ROMs, but seeing as they dont allow digital products, Zillion has been the best for the eBooks so far.
I'll list some more on eBay this week and hope to make the next step in 6 or 7 days :D

Oh, and on another note...After being a loyal Apple customer for over 13 years, they have finally gone too far.
I will be ransoming my G3 iBook on a grand scale....
She went in to have her logic board diagnosed (one of the many with faulty logic boards in that line...), Magnum Mac in CHCH said it was outside the worldwide warranty (apparently this is up to their discretion) and returned it with a broken optical drive !!
The dvd was perfect when it left, broken on its return.

I rang them, apparently it's a coincidence (???!!!!).
I had done a full diagnostic on it before it left me, so suffice to say, I'm open to other vendors.

Apple, you may have lost thousands and a very loyal customer (not that you'd care....)

So watch this space for the ransom note :D

How Easy is it to make $1,000,000 ?


Digg!


A growing number of people are accepting the challenge to “Double your way to a million” !
The idea put forward by Stuart Goldsmith in his free report (which can be accessed at to your right ) has intrigued many as the concept is so simple.

Look around, find one penny, cent or whatever the currency is in your country. Then double it.
If you double the amount of money you have just 28 times, you’ll end up with over $1,000,000 !

Now obviously, you have to work at it, become creative and learn from each step and each mistake.
The beauty of taking this challenge now, however, is the amount of support and encouragement you can find online.... especially from Bloggers.

So if you’d like to see how many of them are going... and how they are making money, just visit the people contained in my comprehensive list of links to the right !

Be sure to download the free report also.... It’s free, but it could change your life !





PS; I just sold another $17 worth of ebooks. Creeping towards step 15 !!!

Another $8 to add...


Well, finally I'm selling some more ! It's amazing how people prefer to buy from you after you have reached a certain feedback level at auction sites.

I have written an eBook in the last weeks about fudge making.
While going through 6 years of university, I paid for it by being a chef, so the fudge book was not much effort. I simply put in 152 recipes and around 3 pages of tips.
The first one sold for $3.99 this morning and I sold another eBook for $3.99 which tells you how to extend your PSP into something exceptional.
Click below to see these if you'd like.

You can still win a Nintendo WII if you join Zillion, so it's worth a shot !!

Join Zillion before 30 November and you could win a brand new Nintendo Wii gaming console and The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, worth over $600!

Selling some...

Well. I sold another few digital items and less than 12 hrs of listing my LM Montgomery Omnibus, it was sold and paid for :) Another $15 to put on the total.

As most of you know (if you've clicked on the first link in my "Links" List) I'm also doing a trade up.
The major problem I have with trading is that it relies entirely on someone else to provide the means for going forward.

The thing I love most about doing this doubling is simply that it is all up to you (as most things are..) You choose how to make your money.
If that doesn't work...just change strategy.

I have also been throwing around a few ideas for setting up an easy way to make money on-line. The "simple" formula that many use is The Membership site. For the past week or two I've been throwing around ideas.
I've decided on the simple model of the free membership site with premium subscriptions.

But that's for the next step :)

OK, so I have finally gotten my CD all finished and ready to ship out worldwide.

The CD contains 24 books from LM Montgomery, you know, the author responsible for Anne of Green Gables, Anne of Avonlea, Jane of Lantern Hill ect...

I have taken a lot of care to make this collection something I would be happy to purchase.
So don't just sit there.... CLICK HERE TO SEE IT !!!!

And the best thing is, if you click on that link and decide to sign up to that auction site (free of course !!) you'll have a chance at winning a Nintendo Wii gaming console and Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess !

Pretty cool, huh ?!

Oh, you could also visit my new website where this cd will also be for sale; http://e-libris.co.nz

I sold the Diesel pants for $30, but as the rules state, I am spending the amount in excess of $40 elsewhere.

I have almost gotten my new offer ready. I will be selling professionally compiled CD's of certain collections of Public domain works !
My first compilation is The Omnibus of LM Montgomery.
Each of her books (remember Anne of Green Gables* ect...?) is re-formatted to PDF format. Every chapter of all the books is bookmarked for simple navigation, and I have also compiled a collection of quick facts, a biography and pictures - something no other CD has on it !

I've also just contacted Adobe for permission to include at least 2 formats of Acrobat Reader on each CD (PC & MAC).

I will need to sell 8 of these to reach my target. I will list them at $6.99 USD & $2USD worldwide postage. I'll add pics too.
Each CD has been quality checked, has a printed face and a jewel case with insert. These will be mailed in hard cardboard CD mailers.

Phew !
