Good morning all

Ok so far this morning I have rolled over in bed and picked up the laptop lol!

I have contacted 2 more agencies this morning regarding a list of jobs that I am very interested in. Have spoken to them last week so should be a bit easier to work with now!

I have been doing ebay research on the virtual PA advertising idea. It is certainly not saturated like it used to be on ebay, but maybe I have not looked in the right places? My pricing is competitive depending on where in the country I compare but then I generally customise all my pricing with each client.

That is me, now in desperate need of coffee!!! At least I feel a little productive for the moment.....

Have a great day all!

Munchki have you tried www.Peopleperhour.com I'll try and find the post i made about that - its all dusty now in of the first few threads lol!

But with your skills set you could earn a good amount from there - virtual pa, marketing etc etc etc have a good look at it and read through their instructions on how to bid for jobs. Would be great for you if you can get your foot in the door. 700 CVs... is a lot, perhaps the universe is trying to tell you - you shouldn't be "in a job" but a Self Employed business woman working for yourself!!

Well my total for Jan is £0 (made around £200 but spent again, investment in my future hopefully!)

My goal for February is to do some matched betting, I have joined the group and had some msn'ing with bet munch but havent had the courage to actually do a bet yet! I have my betfair and coral account so need to do that first.

My commitment for this week is:-
1. put at least 10 things on ebay/amazon/play
2. 1 matched bet:eek:
3. more work on my main idea/website - get domain name and finish plan
4. do a few daily clicks (keep forgetting to do them, started off well but need to do more!)

I think that is enough for now

Hope everyone has a profitable day/week/month

Edit: just sold an item on ebay that I listed last night so 99p less postage!

Zoe and Paula-thankyou for the forum idea-i do lurk about a bit but so many of them have rules about not advertising I dont want to offend anyone! Please feel free to be me anytime you want...will warn you though...it sucks!! lol

Munchki - random idea I had in the middle of the night..what about helping people research their family trees? would tie in with your helpfulness and interest in history, you could charge hourly perhaps? I know a lot of people that are interested in doing this but go back a few generations and get stuck or dont have internet access to find out info? probably a dumb idea but it was 4 am!

I am going to update my blog today I promise :-)

Hey - family history is one of my things (only for myself!!) Good idea but the easiest way to get started is using Ancestry.com which has a 14 day free subscription to start and then charges, also you need to pay out for birth certs etc........ so knowing the little I know about Munchki anything with an outlay at the moment is a no no! But anyone wanting to do it, if I can help I will, I am not an expert by any means but I have been doing it for a fair few years now...

Thank you for that....I have been a member on it for ages, have placed several bids and not a sausage of work yet! Did another one last night and one again this morning!! I must admit I am trying to get ummmm clever in my bid descriptions to try and get the possible client to my website lol but have to be so very careful of course as is a no no, but have to do what I have to do!!!

Anyway, off out to the old stomping grounds today, I have a lot on my mind today, a lot of decisions to make today and thought I would enjoy the car for at least the day while I still have it. Dreading ringing them later but this to shall pass.......I hope!!

Hi,

My name is Jane and I have been lurking since the beginning of the year and have finally picked up the courage to join

I was made bankrupt last year but unfortunately my partner still has debt and I am ill so can't work. I would love to just earn a bit extra each month to help out with bills.

My total this month has been about £74 from just selling stuff from home on Ebay and some bingo winnings.

I think the thread is great and I hope to get myself together soon to start making some bags from old clothes and material I have lying around. I will also be taking in some German students around Easter time. It can be hard work but you get about £17 per night per student.

I have a 4 month old puppy so it is difficult to get time to myself. I didn't realise puppies are harder work than babies. My 2 babies are teenagers now

Thanks to money and everyone else for all the work you are putting in to this thread, I love it.

Jane

Munchki - I hope the day goes better for you than you are anticipating. I am sure by phoning and being proactive to your car company they may actually be able to help you - keeping my fingers crossed!


HALES - Please can you mark my January total/pm'ing MMTWGR as completed next time you are updating the list. THANK YOU!!!

MMTWGR - I have said it in the pm, but I will focus on blogging - I know nothing about it, not really sure what I would blog about but I love 'talking' so I am sure I could find something. My aim to have a blog up and running by end of Feb - woo hoo!! (You may find me on here asking LOTS of wuestions to achieve this aim.....I apologise in advance!!)

PM/MSN me if you need any help....

Amber - Pm me the link to your facebook page .....

Well, this morning OH is replacing the window in my office so I have been evicted! I guess this means not much is going to be done this morning so I am going to have a productive day ironing..:( I hate ironing but I keep putting it off and the pile breeds!

Once the ironing is done I shall make a start on sorting out the kids clothes for ebay....
