Hi Ermballa;

To answer your question re: $1 a day payments. You'd have to use paypal micro payments. They take 10 cents on the dollar so you'd get 90cents a day. There is a problem though... 1. Paypal accidentally drops a LOT of payments. 2. People don't want $1 coming off their credit card each day if they have their paypal address tied to their CC. My recommendation: Charge $15 every 2 weeks or $30 once a month.... MUCH less headache.

Hi Ermballa,

Indeed getting your blog up and running is no easy task. I have to agree that guest blogging is a great idea to spread your network, as well as writing lots and lots of articles. However the best suggestion that I could recommend is to hire a VA.

Yes, finding the right VA who is knowledgeable about your topics and have the ability to write well is quite a challenge, but I tell you that there are a lot out there.

I'd like to recommend a reputable VA company in the Philippines named Pepper. Here's their site: http://www.peppervirtualassistant.com/

They're a team composed of top caliber professionals with extensive experience in creative writing, copywriting services, SEO and online marketing among many others. Aside from having good articles, they'll also be offering you useful tips to increase your traffic to your site. Hope this helps.

Best,
Rojae

ermballa: What was your first muse that you said was successful since the start?

Thanks,

Goodie --
My apologies for just getting back to you....I rarely check these messages. Anyways, thanks for taking the time to check my website and contacting me. Not sure if youre still dealing w/ the issues that you asked me about, but as of right now I handle everything from a packaging and shipping stand point. Hopefully as I make more money I will outsource these things and complete remove myself. Since my product is not as expensive as what Tim recommended, I need to save some money on the front end. I believe there are different companies in the book that handle this type of fullfillment you may want to check out.

SOrry I couldn't be of more help...but please let me know if you have any other questions, or let me know how everythings going!

Hi ermballa,

I came across your post on this site and also visited your website 10weekmarathon.com.
That is awesome!! What a great idea!
I am in the beginning stages of creating my first muse and i'm developing an information product.
As I was going through some of the steps that Tim mentions in his book like picking a niche market, beginning with the end in mind, etc... one question came to mind.
How do I distribute & ship my product online?

I was wondering if I could get some advice/tips from you on how I can find out about

1. packaging a product?(how do I find out how much it would cost to package a product in a box)
2. distributing a product?(how do I find out how this works & the costs involved)

Any input would be greatly appreciated. Seeing as you seem to already have done this, I figured you may be able to assist.

Thanks in advance.
