We have been treated to a week of the most gloriously

unseasonably cool days after months of high humidity

and days in triple digits. I am sure we are not over

the summer extremes but we sure do appreciate the break.

 

If you do ANY kind of business or socializing on the

net, I cannot encourage you enough to at least get

a facebook and twitter account. I cannot tell you

how responsive the new contacts and leads are since

I forced myself to get involved in social networking.

 

remember, you can get updates on my personal and

professinal undertakings, if you like, here:

Publishing Your eZine – the Pros

 

There are several advantages publishing your own eZine

can offer to you. So if the pros appeal to you, publishing

your own paperless newsletter can be ideal for you.

 

The most obvious reason publishing an eZine can be the

most ideal business to you is that it is so easy to start anyone

can do it. There is no need to invest in starting

a brick and mortar business with staff, supplies, or heavy

machines or rent and utilities for this separate venture.

 

In fact, you can do this from the comfort of your home.

One of the most important things you will need is an

auto-responder equipped with broadcast feature or mailing

software. Auto responders such as aWeber

http://www.aweber.com/?12685  are highly recommended

when it comes to publishing your own eZine.

I use optinlightning

http://hop.clickbank.net/?jantd/lightning to mail my ezine.

It has the mailing feature, subsctiption sign up, auto-

responder set up for welcome message, etc. AND puts an

unsubscribe link in every mailing I send.

 

In spite of the low start up cost and monthly fees, you can

make money from several profit centers within the spaces of

your eZine issues. You can make money from selling

advertising space, get JV offers from sellers of products

you want to promote and other sources.

 

Most importantly, you get to build your own personal media

and spread your marketing influence, making you more

valuable to product and service owners so do not be

surprised if you receive Joint Venture proposals every

so often.

 

Given some of the best reasons in the world of Internet

Marketing, publishing your own periodical eZine can one

of the best money vehicles you will ever acquire or

even build.

 

How would YOU like to:

 

* Have the ability to print money at will?

 

* Have your own circle of "fans" or people who would

listen to you, whether it's your golden tips or the

next top recommendation?

 

* Make money from as many cash points as possible

doing only ONE thing?

 

* And do all of the above at a very low startup

and monthly cost?

 

If your answer is YES to any one of the above,

then I've got great advice for you --- publish

your own online newsletter!

Bonus Article

 

Publishing Your eZine – the Cons

 

As with any other types of businesses, publishing your own

online newsletter a.k.a. eZine has its share of drawbacks,

in spite of the several benefits it offers.

 

The purpose of this article is not to scare you away with

the disadvantages of publishing your own eZine, as the

benefits are often more attractive. However, I will also

show you how you can easily tackle the cons.

 

One obvious challenge most beginning eZine publishers face

is the creation of eZine content. Creating your own content

can be tiresome, especially if you are not a gifted writer

and run out of ideas so often that your publishing schedule

is threatening you.

 

A way of taking care of this problem is to create your

content in advance. You can compile 30 days worth of

content in one day, for example. If you are not blessed

with writing skills, you can broker the writing task to

capable freelance writers which you can find at places such

as http://www.elance.com/ or http://www.rentacoder.com/.

While you need to pay for such services, you are at liberty

to take the credit for written articles.

 

Alternatively, you can republish articles from article

directories such as http://ezinearticles.com/. This is

a free method you can use in making content, provided

you include the resource box of the original author and

that the article has republishing rights conveyed.

 

Lastly, and my personal favorite, are the tons of PLR

( private label rights ) articles where you buy the

package(s) of articles and they are yours to do what

you wish with and can not only change, add to or remove

things FROM the articles but can also put your name

to them as the author.

 

In conclusion, you can easily tackle the content creation

challenge using the mentioned methods that do not require

writing on your part, free or paid.

your articles, visit:
