Hi There!
Yup, I know I am almost 1 week late with this post…. but you’ll understand…
You see, I was just over worked last week. I had this 5 day project going, 3 client’s betting accounts to manage and I decide to start putting my younger son down for his afternoon nap myself. Don’t forget I’ve also got my 2 subscription websites to deal with, people rely on me to tell them what to do later in the day when the races start…this is everyday!
5 Day Project
I had to create the product and keep updating this blog about how it was to be done. While most of the product was already written earlier, I still needed to present it properly in the format of an ebook so that the person reading it would understand it.
Then I had to hop over here and explain each step the 5 Day Project and also write it in a way that a total beginner would understand.
Managed Betting Accounts
Last week was a roller coaster for me where the betting accounts were concerned because of the time and attention it took for me to monitor these 3 accounts. If you add my own account in that would make 4 accounts. This week I’ve accepted one more account! LOL…
My Dear Son
Over here in Malaysia we are blessed with the luxury of having live in household help for a very small cost. We have an indonesian lady who works for us and basically runs the entire household. Here monthly wage is only $150 but that does not include all the Agency fees that we need to pay and her air fare. We also pay for anything else that she needs which includes toiletries, food, clothes and medical fees.
Pawit, our helper is due to return to Indonesia in June and we might be without help for a few weeks. She has been putting Aaron down for his nap since he was born in Oct 06, so I’ve decided to take over so that we will have a smooth transition when our new helper arrives. And as all moms would know … it is not easy trying to get a toddler to fall asleep!
Subscription Sites
I run 2 subscription websites, one that sends out selections for horses that will not win and the other is a selection service for horses that will win. It takes me at least an hour and a half to scrutinize the daily race forms before I can make my picks… This 2 websites account for half of my ‘pay’ , so I am not complaining!
Now I am sure you can picture how much I had on my plate last week!
So then, let’s get started.
FTP and Paypal
Now that you’ve created the website/sales page, you’ll need to upload it to your website. You can use a free FTP software called Filezilla Client, it is easy to use and very reliable.
Once you have uploaded your sales page, please check you Paypal link. Make sure that it is set up to pay you and not someone else. Also don’t forget to set up the download page so that the buyer knows where to go after paying to download the product.
YouTube Video
Now that you have a product to sell, you’ll need to get your product infront of as many people as possible otherwise you’ll never make a single sale.
You can choose to create the video in 2 ways. Either in a form of presentation or just video yourself presenting your product. In this video you’ll need to point out the benefits of your product and/or what problems it will help your potential buyer solve.
You can use your digital camera to shoot this video, most of them have that feature now.
After you’ve created this video you’ll need to transfer it to your computer and edit it with Windows Movie Maker. You’ll need to add your website link to your video so that people know where to go after the video.
Once you’ve completed the video, all that you need to do is to upload it to YouTube.

Then sit back and wait. I only got my first sale after 2 whole weeks, I almost gave up. BUT that same free website ended up paying me almost $1000 in the last 8 months.
Since I consider it as free money, I think great to have the extra $1000. So be patient, the money will come in.
So off you go, go make a few videos and start uploading them to YouTube under different tags.
