I'm Broke, What Should I Do?

[lukenzy]

Hello guys, I've been a part of the community for a decade now and still not financially stable. I've been a writer and content manager for 5 years and didn't get much from it considering that the payments were minimal.
I also have basic knowledge in SEO, I'm Google certified in digital marketing and e-commerce. My biggest issue is that I jump from one thing to another in no time.

Your last sentence is the answer to your question.

Stick to one thing, don't fall for shiny object syndrome

 

[i_am_that_i_am]

focus on what you are good at, you know your strength, the skill that comes to you naturally that you enjoy doing, just learn how to monetize that.

Why didn't you invest in Jr Vip Subscription? You could offer your services and get more job done.
Did you try to network with someone? You could partner with other people helping each others promoting your work.
If you've been a bhw member for 10 years either you're not that interested in online business or you didn't put enough effort into it.
Don't waste your time chasing the new things, focus on what you've got, maximise that and in the spare time you learn new things so you can implement them to your skills.

Do you favor starting a project on your own or finding a partner?

Do you favor starting a project on your own or finding a partner?

I prefer to create my own projects and to blend them according to my visions and tastes.
But I'm always keen to network and work with others, you can get the most of out it for several reasons:
- you only focus on things you are good at
- you delegate simple, time consuming task
- you scale your business including other people and services
- you learn a lot and get feedback

 

[blogmen]

Man, your skills are perfect for starting a content site/blog. You're a god damn writer, what other asset can you build if not a blog? And you have a lot of intel from your clients, their niches, websites, how to monetize.

Start a journey thread for accountability.

People say don't jump from one thing to another, but that's wrong. Definitely switch between multiple projects, but keep them all running and make tracked progress on them altogether. You're in the stage where you don't have a guaranteed earner, so your job is to find one as quickly as possible, and with this, you need to give up on assumptions that don't work as fast as you pick up things you think will work. If you have done 5 different things so far you think might work, plan out these things, what success will look like for them, and the numbers you need to get there. Set some goals for each in a spreadsheet, and make progress on the minimum value-added content requirements. Which is for you to figure out.

Classic advice: focus on just one thing that you do. I believe you have enough knowledge to jump to another job like flashes, so optimize that knowledge, and you good to go. Hope this will help.

Switching Isn't that bad. 5 years ago i sold animation video at fiverr. Made 6 k. Then i switched to YouTube. Making 350 usd per month. Now i have started blogging. Posted 14 articles. I learned seo and How to write, how to do kw research etc.

Now i have bought a Facebook page and will be doing instream ad work.

And i got a job to do. 8 hours shifting duty at construction site.

My fiverr account is still active. I am making 1 video per day for yt. I am writing 1 article per week.

I will be uploading 1 video per day at facebook too.

Switching Isn't bad. Learn everything, apply it quick, enjoy your learning.

Start a blog, grow it and then flip it. It takes very small investment since you are a writer and you have some SEO knowledge.

 

[Konyagi]

Like someone else suggested, you should consider getting yourself a JR VIP subscription. Since you're a content writer, you'll have an entirely new platform to market your services and even charge more for your work. Eyes on the prize!

Thanks everyone for the feedback, I'm going to write a journey that I planned out.
