You’ve probably been slaving away creating a product you hope will generate passive income.
Maybe you’ve spent time cultivating a following, growing your email list and building your blog in preparation for launching your signature product.
With all that out of the way, the focus now becomes on sales.
Let me ask you this:
When you first started blogging, did making money from your blog ever cross your mind?
Maybe not.
Many new bloggers view blogging as only a hobby. It’s not until they generate a decent amount of traffic and develop a loyal following do they even consider monetizing their blog.
You feel the itch.
For months you’ve been churning out post after post, promoting it all over social media and slowly building your email list.
Now it’s time to take your blog to the next level and turn it into a business by launching your first product or course.
The most effective way to earn a full-time living from your blog is to become a freelance blogger. The best thing about this is that no matter how challenging it is to make money in your niche, you can make it happen by leveraging your skills and knowledge as a blogger.
We all have something that motivates us to start a blog.
For a lot of us, that motivation is the dream of being liberated from our 9-5 job and make money from the comfort of our own home.
So is it possible?
Most definitely!
I still remember my first day as a freelance blogger/writer pretty clearly, even though it was some years ago.
I was sitting on my computer at my mom’s house, looking at an email from my first ever client and thinking something along the lines of, “So you really want to pay me for writing blog posts?!
I was recently asked:
How can I earn enough money to maintain my blog or earn enough so it maintains itself?
To answer this question, I didn’t want to just list a set of tactics, although I have included them – there’s more to think about here.
