Money Bump - BASE 2.1 - Round 3 (last round in 2017)

[Omni3]

I've been running BASE over the past week, but this has been in conflict with the washout period involved with UMS.
This really screwed up my focus and productivity, but it has come back slightly this past day. I'm slightly more optimistic, but nowhere near my usual productivity.

Day 7,

Currently involved in a Facebook group which has an intense focus on building a marketing/creative agency. My current focus is in becoming a really good copywriter. I've made some sales and made some money, but nowhere near the agency level

This past week, I've been second-guessing my willingness to stick through the *****, especially because I don't want the obligations involved with success. There are time of day obligations, time zone and geographic obligations, employees, constant phones calls, delegation. Sure, I wouldn't like the money, but it's equivalent to becoming an engineer solely for the money.

Last Saturday (the 1st), I started on a first draft for a mini eBook I had bouncing around in my mind. By using a new writing system (which I came up with), I was able to write just over 13,000 words in a 24 hour period. Yesterday, I put out just under 2,000 words due to my being in a funk.

And so, I could market and sell my own products using funnels and email marketing. Furthermore, I could leverage these same services to run affiliate marketing for other programs/products I believe in (and am knowledgeable about) and make residuals.

TL;DR; considering a change of marketing to earn money more on my terms, all while using a copywriting edge as my advantage.

Hey Ampersnd

I'm curious about your new writing method. Care to share? I can talk a ton but when it comes to writing it feels too slow and its as if I'm not in my flow. I was thinking about recording audios/videos instead and promoting those, or even getting them transcribed. I appreciate your input as, like Lano stated, your writing rate is quite prolific.

Cheers

Hey buddy,

My book project is literally on the topic of writing books quickly. Here's the cliffnotes:

1) Organize your book's ideas and then break it up into 200-word chunks;
2) Place those chunks into Microsoft Excel, one chunk/idea per row, summarized as a single idea/phrase. You will be writing roughly 200 words in the next cell.
3) Install a word-counter into the cell after that. It will count how many words you've written in the writing block.
4) Place a global word counter at the top of the document. Freeze the top row to always keep it visible.
5) Try to write 200 words for each idea you've listed out. Add new rows if your idea exceeds 250 words. In other words, you don't want a 400-word cell; convert it into 2x200 words.

If you follow this, it's easy to rack up the words. If you come up with 5 chunks, you've got 1,000 words. If you write for only 25 chunks, that's 5,000 words. 

It's basically a reframing of how you view writing. The Excel sheet also forces you to break down the project into chunks and also motivates you by showing you the word-count.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for this.
