Pretending it's still yesterday!

Since I was so busy taking that IQ test during that Test the Nation show last night, and then had to watch The Amazing Race, which I had to tape since it was on at the same time, I didn't get my weekly earnings report posted last night. I know, excuses, excuses! So let's just pretend that today is still Sunday, and here's my update!

Last weeks post, I had a total of $400.12. This past week, I managed to bump that up another $184.14, for a grand total of $584.26. Nice! Very nice! However, it really could have been better. I know I shouldn't be balking at what I made, since it was money I hadn't made when the week started, but things are really slowing down for me at PayPerPost, and it's becoming quite disheartening. I only managed to bring in about $25.00 with them last week, and that's very low, since I've done close to that or more in one day before. I love doing the posts for them, but with so many opportunities coming up now that my blog doesn't qualify for due to page rank, there are less and less chances for me to make much money there anymore. I really need to get people to link to this blog, and help boost my page rank. I've been doing all I can to hopefully get some linking from others, such as joining different blog communities, and leaving comments on other people's blogs, but my rank is still sitting at that big fat zero. Things also seemed to slow down at Blogitive for me too. I only managed to do one post with them last week, so hopefully there will be more chances this coming week. Nothing new at either Blogsvertise or Loudlaunch last week, but I do have a post with Loudlaunch coming up after this. My Helium seemed to slow down quite a bit this past week too, but I'm happy to say I requested another payout tonight for month end! :-) Sales at my Funky Olive Shop did good again last week, being the top money maker for the week again, Sales of still more St. Patrick's Day items helped, but things have slowed back down there as well. I've already made about $75.00 more there this month so far than last month. Growth is good!

So all in all, things are looking good for the month, but seeming to slow down. I can't really complain since this month started with a bang, and that was real nice! Here's to further earnings growth for you and for me! :-)

It's Sunday... how much have you made?

First of all, allow me to apologize for not posting an update last Sunday. I completely forgot about it until later in the week. However, I did do a monthly recap, so I can tell you that I finished off the month by earning a total of $496.75, which is $86.90 more than what I made in the month of January. That's not bad, considering there were three less days in the month, and there were those issues with the Blogitive site for a couple of weeks or more.

Now, onto what I've made so far this month. I have to say the past 11 days have been pretty darn good! I'm currently sitting at $400.12 so far! That's sweet! My daily average is currently at $36.38! I can't wait until I can get that up to $50 a day, but I'll take what I can get at this point!

Now I have to confess one thing here about this months earnings... I did a post from PayPerPost that paid $100.00, so that definitely helped boost my total. And my shop, The Funky Olive sold quite a few St. Patrick's Day products, which was a nice boost as well. In fact, my sales there have already made tier this month, so I'm in for an additional 7% of all my sales for the rest of the month. I would love to be able to reach the next tier for an additional 15%, but I think the major bulk of the sales for the month is over, since St. Paddy's day is next Saturday, so any more sales from those products are pretty much unlikely until next year. I have to get going on Easter designs. Sales for that holiday will be starting real soon, if they haven't already. Helium is clipping along, and I'll be requesting my payment next weekend. I've also started doing some blogging for LoudLaunch this month as well, which is great to add a little more opportunity. And I'm very pleased that Blogitive is back up and running again. I sure did miss them while they were out of commission.

So until next week's update, let's hope we can all make as much as we possibly can!

Drum Roll Please...

It's Sunday, and that means it's time for another weekly earnings update! Woohoo! I love Sundays!

So, this week wasn't quite as profitable as last week, but it wasn't hard to take either. I try to remember that it's money I didn't have a week ago, and it all adds up in the end. There still seems to be issues with Blogitive, although I think it may actually be fixed now. I logged in to my account earlier today and there was a posting there, but when I clicked on it to accept it, something happened and it seemed to poof away on me! I think though that perhaps I hesitated and someone else beat me to the punch, as it was only showing one available post left. Gotta be quicker on the trigger I guess! I got a little lax with PayPerPost this past week and only ended up doing seven opps for the whole week. I think I started getting a little discouraged with seeing all these great opps there, but not being able to act on so many of them with my zero page rank. I know I shouldn't do that, and I don't even know if that was the reason behind it since I haven't really been feeling up to snuff lately. I feel like I'm fighting off a cold, and have just felt a little drained after work lately. I'm happy to say I got another entry offer from Blogsvertise this past week, so I did that one. I hope to get more of them on a more regular basis, since I've only had one per month since I signed up with them. Again, I think my zero page rank has something to do with that as well. My Helium account has been steadily growing this past week. I'm still not at that minimum payout again yet. I'm now just a titch over $3.00 away, so it's safe to say that I will be able to request payment next month. Cool! My Funky Olive Shop has seen steady sales this past week as well, and I have reached tier for this month, which means I now earn an additional 7% on each sale until the end of the month. That's always nice, because it helps the profits grow more rapidly, and I love it when that happens!

Now for the dollar update... To date, for this month so far, I'm sitting at $445.12, which means earnings from this past week rang in at $143.93. Like I said, not as much as last week, but not hard to take either, and I'll take it with a smile on my face!

I'm really hoping for a snow day tomorrow, since we're in the midst of another nasty blizzard. I figure if I end up with the day off, I'm hoping to get my second shop up and operational, which in turn I hope will generate more earnings. In the meantime, here's to more earnings this coming week! :-)
