You’ve seen those funny pictures on social media which have ‘you only had one job’ written across them to highlight job based fails that shouldn’t have happened, well this is the same.

The person sharing the post ‘had just one job’, which was to effectively communicate all the information that a potential customer needed to make a positive decision.

If a potential customer has to go looking for more information that you could have easily shared, then you have failed in your work… it’s highly likely that they didn’t go looking.

The post I am referring to was just a photo of the flyer, there was no written information with the post explaining where they were, what time the restaurant was open and if there was anything special happening.

It was completely devoid of anything else other than the picture.

If the person who posted the picture believed that people already knew who they were, where they were and what their opening times were, then they are suffering from ‘mind blindness’ which is a term associated with people who have autism.

Mind blindness is the term given to people who struggle to understand that other people do not know what is going on in their heads.

When someone knows something specific, they often fail to realise that others may not. They just assume that people know what they know and so when they talk about subjects they leave out a lot of basic information that others would need.

It happens a lot with ‘experts’ who write articles about specific subjects that they post on websites and blogs.

Unless they are writing to an audience that should already know the basics, like a psychology professor writing for third year university students, they should always assume that the person reading is completely clueless to what is being written about.

You can never have too much information, but you can always have too little.

Lack of information is what leads to assumptions, and as the saying goes:

‘Assumption is the mother of all fuck-ups!’

A lack of information leads to bad decisions and reactional behaviour which can be irrational, negative, and self-destructive.

Knowing just half the story can be incredibly damaging if it is acted upon… or not in this case.

Effective communication is key to success in life.

And it is incredibly vital when it comes to making money… that is for sure.

The thing is… effective communication is not something you are born with…

It is learnt.

I had to learn it as did many others who now make tens of thousands of pounds each month.

People are different and so where some will find it appealing, others will find it off-putting preferring to go somewhere less ‘British’ in favour of something more authentically Spanish and less ‘tacky’.

What is interesting is that the show is apparently also popular in Germany and the Netherlands. A lot of Germans and Dutch go to Benidorm for their holidays too.

I have to wonder, are those who watch the show in Germany and the Netherlands similar types to the British who go to Benidorm, or do they watch it for a laugh and think that all the British are like the dysfunctional families on the show?

With Benidorm, Bargain Brits In The Sun, and Brexit, I dread to think what our European friends think of us!

I so hope they don’t think that we are all alike, although, saying that, not all of the families are the same on the show.

Anyway, I digress a little.

The point I am trying to make is that it is easier to sell products, services, and places when you clothe them in ‘stories’.

People have no idea that they are being sold to when they are enjoying a story. They see and hear things and ‘make’ decisions through ‘freewill’… or so they think.

Do you think it was an accident that Ray Ban glasses were used in the film, Top Gun?

No, like most products seen in films and television shows, they pay a premium to be featured because they know that it will result in a lot of sales.

The people who make those ‘freewill decisions’ are actually motivated and persuaded to do so.

The truth is, they didn’t make a decision between several different brands of the same product; they made a decision based on only seeing one… one which was purposely put in front of them.

Remember that when trying to sell products of your own… use story and only show potential customers what you want them to see.

A fantastic way to get stories in front of people is to publish a newsletter.

Not only can you publish a newsletter for free… people will pay you to receive and read your newsletters.

A fantastic platform to publish newsletters for free from is Substack.

Substack allows you to charge for your newsletters and will process the payments for you, and get this… the top ten writers on the platform collectively make over £15 million per year!

There are over 500,000 paying subscribers on the platform, who wouldn’t want a piece of that?

Finishing half way through a sentence may be a strange and difficult thing to do for many, but stopping half way through a paragraph is easier.

Psychologists say that humans struggle to forget things that are half finished, which makes it easier to go back the next day to and carry on where you left-off.

When you finish something, the brain starts to automatically forget it. It is known as the Zeigarnik Effect, after the famous 1927 experiment by Bluma Zeigarnik.

The experiment observed that waiters were able to remember complex orders when the order was interrupted or incomplete, but as soon as the order was finished, it faded from memory more quickly.

The other thing about finishing half way through a paragraph is that you can read what is written and be reminded as to where you left-off and what you need to write next.

Leaving a job half finished is a great way to start fresh again the following day without the head scratching that comes from trying to figure out what you need to do next.

I don’t know if this works for everyone, some people may struggle ending the day on an unfinished paragraph or project, but studies show that it works, and both Hemingway and Dahl’s success is testament to it working for them.

Another way to avoid any form of writers block is to have a list of ideas to write about that you browse through before you start typing.

I add to that list daily whenever I see or hear something that influences an idea for an article, email, or product.

When it comes to newsletters and emails – which I make a lot of money from – I have a list of questions that I read most mornings to help me come up with ideas if I have exhausted all of the ideas on my list.

They are:

1. Who and what have I seen out and about lately which I found interesting?
2. What did I watch on television last night which I found interesting?
3. What have I read recently which I have found interesting?
4. What have I been told about/heard about recently which I found interesting?
5. What have I seen online lately which I found interesting?

Those five questions will help you to find topics to write about for articles, emails, and newsletters.

Those five questions can be your own personal goldmine if you use them correctly.

Mark and Sarah, who at one point were spending £60 a night on takeaway food and bottles of wine, would have spent over £10,000 if they were doing that every day for six months!

I don’t know how long they had been spending £60 a day, but it was an expensive habit.

Both of these stories are prime examples of people essentially ‘wasting’ money.

Now, before you start shouting ‘it’s their money to enjoy’, at me, I know!

What I am saying here is that there are a lot of people who will constantly say that they do not have any money spare to invest or make positive changes to their lives… yet they can afford to fund habits that are harmful and costly… just like these two couples.

People fall into habits of behaviour and do not realise how much time and money they are losing each month.

Both couples have saved themselves at least £5,000 over a six month period since changing their behaviour. The money they wasted could have been put to better use… which it probably is now.

With Mark and Sarah going to the gym regularly, having more energy and a ‘revived’ relationship, and Kassie and Toby moving to Amsterdam (to remove themselves from the toxic drinking culture of the UK), they have reinvented their lives and are much happier for it.

I can only imagine how much money they could have made if they had used their money to do what Kate Davis does each week day morning instead of blowing it on food and drink.

Before leaving the house for work in the morning, Kate trades the financial markets, very often making a day’s wage before she starts work.

Since lockdown in 2020, Kate has been making an extra £750 – £1,725 a month while doing her morning workout before work.

After generating over £20,000 in TAX FREE profits, Kate decided to put everything she does down onto paper and asked us if we would kindly publish it on her behalf.

Through her comprehensive manual, she has taught many others to generate very healthy TAX FREE profits of up to £185 per day!

The good news is… Kate wants to send you a copy of that manual – which has taught hundreds of people how to make up to £1,725 in TAX FREE money each month – for FREE!

When you subscribe to Twitter’s new Blue Tick system for $8 a month, you are no longer restricted to the 280 characters that Twitter is famous for; you can write longer posts of up to 25,000 characters.

And this bit is really important…

You can also now charge a monthly subscription fee for your content.

You connect a Stripe account to your Twitter profile to process recurring payments.

This could be a game changer.

Now anyone has the opportunity to publish content and charge people to access it.

This no longer just from the comfort of your own home… this is… from the palm of your hand profits!

It couldn’t get any easier!

This is a business you can carry around with you in your pocket!

I am not going to say that everyone will be successful with this, but imagine that you needed an extra couple hundred pounds each month to cover the increased food costs; this could be a great way to make that money.

Twenty people paying you £10 a month would be enough to help.

Imagine that you had 200 people paying you £10 a month… that would be great, wouldn’t it?

Twitter is very easy to use and you can share multiple pictures and videos per post.

Twitter has a global market and so you can potentially reach millions of people with your content.

I see no reason as to why a person cannot get at least 200 subscribers worldwide.

Even the most obscure topic should have enough people interested in it globally to be able to find enough paying subscribers.

I mean, if people are willing to pay a subscription each month to see a woman’s feet…

… believe it or not, there’s a whole feet focused platform called feetfinder[.]com for buying and selling feet pictures (there’s another possible way to make money for you!)…

…. then I am more than certain you can find people willing to pay for your content.

I’ve mentioned Noah Smith before who makes around $1 million a year from people paying a subscription to read his opinion pieces on the world’s economies… that is information that anyone can get from news websites and really doesn’t help anyone much…

Now, If he can make a million dollars from that… I’m sure you can earn at least a few thousand pounds or more per month with a subscription business.

PS… Once fully established, you could be earning thousands of pounds each month from work which could take less than a day… depending on what you are providing.

A subscription based business is all about the numbers.

Give a large group of people something they want and need at a price they are happy to pay, and you can be paid multiple times for the one piece of work each and every month.

He wasn’t alone; the New York Post interviewed others who were also following extreme budgeting plans so that they could retire way before the socially-accepted retirement age.

Shang Saavedra, 34, and her husband were saving 50% of their combined six-figure-a-year income. They gave themselves a monthly entertainment budget of just £20!

At eight months pregnant, Saavedra sourced all of her baby gear for free from people on social media. She was a member of the ‘Buy Nothing’ Facebook group which helped her to source a lot of free stuff.

Their goal was to be financially independent and retired from working within a few years.

Another extreme budgeter, Carmen Perez, started her life of extreme frugality when she was 29 and in £45,000 of debt.

Within three years she had replaced her debt with £40,000 in savings, bought a home in Connecticut, had left her job and was working towards a new career online.

As well as living frugally and following an extreme budget, Carmen started a side hustle to bring in more money.

She told the New York Post:

“Get a side hustle. There are so many side gig opportunities in the city that can help with adding money to your savings.”

I’ve talked a lot about side hustles and different ways to make money.

In 2019 when the article was published, it might have been a lot easier to save as it was pre-covid and pre-cost-of-living crisis.

However, she is absolutely right that a side hustle is a fantastic way to make more money which can be added to your savings pot to make your future better, or at least… make your life easier today.

Side hustles (a second income) can be hard work, especially if you have a full-time job.

Side hustles require work.

Making money doesn’t have to require work and it doesn’t have to be hard either.

It can be easy, just like ‘The Easy As 1-2-3 Betfair System’ by John Banks.

John Banks makes a couple of simple checks to see which horses qualify and then he places his bets.

It’s as easy as that.

There is nothing complex to learn or any complicated working-out to be done, simply check that a specific criterion is met, and you are good to go.

With the ‘The Easy As 1-2-3 Betfair System’ you could be doubling your money every 3 to 4 weeks.

One of the lessons they were taught was that it is OK to penny pinch and to avoid spending money… but only on the things that didn’t bring them joy.

There is no point spending ‘over the odds’ on things that you don’t enjoy or are just a necessity.

But when it came to the things they enjoyed, they were taught to spend money without feeling anxious or guilty.

To protect the money they had, they were taught to balance it out better by cutting back on the things they didn’t really need and to focus only on the things they wanted and enjoyed.

I don’t know if they had any income other than their savings and any interest that it generated, but it is always a good idea to have something coming in to fund any living costs and expenses.

For those who are retired and have a little bit of spare money to play with, an excellent way to make life-funding money is to trade the markets.

For most people, between £110 and £350 is more than enough to cover the costs of the day, including entertainment, and that is what David Houghton makes most weekdays for just ten minutes work.

He spends no more than ten minutes checking one financial market to see if there is a trade. If there is, he sets up his system and then goes about his day.

This system makes him between £110 and £350 most weekdays… which is the equivalent to a day’s wage for most people.

PS… As far as effort is concerned, this is one of the easiest systems for making money that I’ve seen.

You don’t need to know a lot and you only need to work ten minutes in the morning and for that it will give you between £110 and £350 most weekdays.

I didn’t rush to write as much as I could, I stopped occasionally to think of what to write next and to edit what I had already written.

From what I can see, in that ten minutes I wrote 362 words… that includes the words start and stop before and after the text.

The point of the little challenge was to see what I could accomplish in that short period of time.

Focusing on what I have written, if I were to write 362 words each day for a whole year, I would have written 132,130 words.

That is a lot of content.

That is one very large book, or a many shorter books.

Some authors make a lot of money publishing books that are just 12,000 words long. Out of those 132,130 words, I could have published eleven 12,000 word books.

I could have created a 132 thousand word articles or emails.

I could have created several hundred social media posts.

Ten minutes a day can create a lot of content that could change your life.

I am not saying that you should work every minute of every day, far from it.

This is just about taking one of those ten minute moments that each day is littered with where time is lost or wasted on something unimportant.

You only need to swap one of those moments per day and to do something a little more productive. Maybe more if you really want to make a big change.

Spending just ten minutes per day doing something specific can have a seriously profound effect on your life.

Ten minutes a day over a week or two would result in you having a website from which to sell digital products.

Ten minutes a day over a week or two could result in you having written a profitable sales letter.

Ten minutes is not a lot, but when you add up the efforts of a lot of ten minute sessions, they become a whole lot more.

The accumulative effect of a lot of ten minute sessions can be life-changing.

But as with all things… nothing happens if you don’t make a start and stick with it.

So, the question is… what could you achieve by spending at least ten minutes a day doing something specific?

I’ve mentioned that you could create a website, write a sales letter and write emails by utilising ten minute periods.

Ten minute tasks each day is a great way to maintain and manage an email based online business, to learn more, click the link below:

I know that life can turn on a coin’s edge and that even people who thought they were well protected have suddenly seen everything turn bad, but for the most part, having a second income will give you the protection and peace of mind you need.

Our good friend Kate Davis has developed her own lifestyle-protecting second income.

Since lockdown in 2020, Kate has been making an extra £750 – £1,725 a month while doing her morning workout before work.

This gives her a lot of peace of mind!

After generating over £20,000 in TAX FREE profits, Kate decided to put everything she does down onto paper and asked us if we would kindly publish it on her behalf.

£800,000 for 7 months work…

Or…

10 years imprisonment for £30,000 fraud?

I know which I prefer.

The point of this article is that there are plenty of ways to make easy money… and you can make quite a lot of it too if you do it right.

The really sad thing about this is that the scammer obviously had a fairly large following to be able to solicit nearly £30,000 in donations.

The question is this…

How much could she have made had she promoted legitimate affiliate products or sold her own products to those people?

She has now lost all the trust and respect she had built up and lost access to that large number of people.

Whereas had she been promoting real products like Becca, not only would she have made a lot of honest money, her number of followers would have continued to grow meaning that she could have made a lot more money in the future.

It amazes me how many people are seduced into doing something completely life destroying for a largish sum of easy money… which is not actually that large a sum of money when you compare it to what many other people are making legitimately.

£30,000 is actually very easy to make online.

You only need to sell 3,000 copies of a product that gives you a clear £10 product.

That number of required sales diminishes when the product you sell gives you more profit.

For example; you only need to sell 1,500 number of a product that gives you a clear £20 profit.

If the profit is £30 per item, you only need to sell 1,000.

You only need to sell 300 copies of something that gives you a clear £100 profit.

With digital products and the internet, all of the above is easily doable.

So is selling 6,000 copies of a product that gives you a modest £5 profit.

I have previously talked about how people are making tens of thousands of pounds publishing newsletters that charged just £5 per month to read.

Everyone now has access to tools, platforms, services and large audiences that gives them the opportunity to make a lot of money.

It is there for the taking.

So go and take it.

Kind regards

John Harrison.
