EBiz Profits from your Hobby

You’re probably aware of my cross-country EBiz Scambuster Road Trip by now. If not, please take a look!

On the Road Trip, I met with Greg Murzyn, a Chicago EBiz owner. You can check out the video on my site. Just click on the CHICAGO IL link about halfway down the page.

Greg’s wife Phyllis has a lifelong passion for Quilting. Greg and Phyllis want to do something to turn their Blog, QuiltingWithPhyllis.com, into a money making EBiz.

You can turn an informational blog into a money making opportunity in four ways.

1. Use it to lead to a Product Sales web site that you create.

2. Create information, such as EBooks, that you sell through the Blog.

3. Place advertising on the site.

4. Place Affiliate links on the Blog.

The smartest thing to do is to choose one of those methods only, and not try to mix them. For example, if you created EBooks to sell about Quilting, AND placed advertising on the site, the advertising would be leading people away from the EBooks that you’ve written, and you wouldn’t get the EBook sales you want. If you build a Product Sales Web Site, the Advertising and Affiliate links would lead people away from the Product Sales. And so on. You need to keep your audience focused on one thing that you want them to do. Splitting thier attention and sending them off in different directions only results in wasted time and effort.

The most important question, though, is how to BRAND yourself when you’re depending on a Blog to create revenue. the COMBINATION of your Products and your Pricing that determines what Platform you sell on. Let’s look at those three Platforms and understand why this is.
