Hey guys:
I just wanted to take some time to say “Happy New Year’s Eve and Day”.
I truly believe that 2009 is going to be the best year for all of us. We are internet marketing writers and we will succeed at meeting our financial goals and building a strong future.
Not only do we have writing talent but we are smart and realize that we can succeed at internet marketing.
We will do this by using our talents for our own benefit, working smart, staying committed and keeping our eye on success.
In essence, we will meet all of our income goals. I feel it. I can taste it and I can’t wait to get started.
See you next year!

Hello fellow internet marketing writers:
Before 2009 rolls around, I thought I would take a moment to post my goals for 2009. I have been dilly and dallying in this internet marketing stuff for about a year now and I can say that I learned a lot. I am nowhere near where I want to be but I am better off than I was when I first started. My past experience has taught me that being a successful internet marketing writer is more than writing great articles. It is also about being a savvy marketer and getting targeted visitors. Therefore, in 2009, I am going to focus on marketing first AND writing second. By doing this, I should be able to reach my income goal of $5000 a month+ which equates to $166+ a day.
To get to this amount, here is my plan:
- Use various marketing message to get my name out there. This includes forum, pay per click, article and press release marketing and more.
In addition, I plan to:
- Create 12 niche sites
- Create 12 short reports/eBooks – 1 report per month
- Promote 52 affiliate products – 1 product per week
- Participate in Residual Income sites – 150 articles per month (divided amongst) these sites:
- Today.com
- Bukisa
- eHow
- Triond
- Helium
- Suite 101
So, as you can see, I plan on being quite busy and in doing so, I will reach my income goals.
What do you plan on doing in 2009?

If you’re wondering how you can increase your income my advice is to work smarter. Not only should you work on creating active income that can sustain you now but you also need to create passive income that will sustain you now and later. For instance, let’s say that you have 3 clients that pay you at various times during the month.Although this is great, you should also start rebuilding your passive or residual income as well. In no time at all, you will have active and passive income streams. This way, you get income all month long. In addition, if any of your active income stream dies out or you are unable to fulfill your duties then you still receive residual or passive income. Doesn’t this sound great? It sure is. Here is an example of this plan in action:
- Client A pays you on the 1st of the month
- Bukisa pays you on the 5th
- Textbroker.com pays you on the 8th
- Today.com pays you on the 10th
- Clickbank pays you every Wednesday.
- Client B pays you on the 20th
- Client C pays you on the 28th.
As you can see, by working both active and passive income streams you have money coming in all month long.
