It seems ever other email I get the past few days is from some marketer promoting Alok Jain’s Project Quick Cash.
I’m not promoting it, because I feel there is a crucial flaw, the price, which is $77. I think this isn’t the proper pricing for people who need quick cash. In fact I think it scares them away.
Not that Alok’s Project Quick Cash it isn’t good information. It is. But I think Rob Toth’s “My Quick Money Ideas That Worked” is just as useful, and your outlay is less than $4.
So save yourself $73. Get Rob’s book. It’s only $3.99 at this writing. Of course the price is subject to change upwards, so I wouldn’t wait.
It’s been a while (again) since I’ve written. Here’s why. I’ve been working on simplifying some business procedures. It is taking time now, but will free a lot of future time for me.
One of those simplifications is only writing when I have something to say or something worthwhile to tell you about. Another is cutting down my email reading. One of the things that has been bothering me about my own efforts is the time I spend on reading emails. It really kills my productivity but it is a hard habit to break.
To simplify things I am whittling down the number of lists I am on. I am bombarded daily, no really almost hourly by marketing messages. And it is my fault, I hit the “submit” button for all those lists that I’m now on.
As emails come in, I evaluate whether I need or want to stay on that list. If not I unsubscribe. Joint ventures, curiosity, new affiliate opportunities, past purchases, and inertia (mine) have kept me from unsubscribing from many of the lists I’m on. But no more.
I’m either on or off a list when new messages arrive. The previous emails either stay or are deleted from my mail folders, depending on past, present, and perceived future value. It’s kind of like having clothes in your closet, and getting rid of the ones that no longer fit or that you never wear.
How about you, are you on too many lists? Are the ones that you subscribe to of value, or at least entertaining? If not, you know what to do.
