🌠The Secret Art of Profiting During Covid Ickness?

Ever wake up one morning and think to yourself:

“Jeepers self, with all of the huge economic smooshing…. I really wish I had a way to support my family online instead of having to rely upon government mandates for who can work when!”

If so, you’re definitely NOT alone at all! I mean, consider the following:

* Interacting with people (and doing your job) is harder than ever, especially if you’re deemed “non-essential”

* Not only have small businesses closed down left and right… it’s also impacted the local economy as well

* Today the word on the street might be “we’re reopening tomorrow!” and when tomorrow comes, the governor of your state might say, welp, it’s still too soon!

and other thingees that are *totally* out of your control.

But here’s the thing, see. Even with the economy spiraling out of control, several things MUST still happen. For example:

* Bills must be paid.

* Did I mention anything about bills? They still have to be paid.

* Oh, and bills must be paid!

The personal agonies the above is causing for millions of people – it’s astronomical. Being forced to stay at home isn’t a good thing for people who:

* Are caught in domestic violence

* Have kids whose ability to stay calm and quiet lasts perhaps 2.3 nanoseconds

* Have mental health challenges like anxiety/PTSD/depression and the like

It’s times like these that try people’s souls…..

But all is NOT lost!

Think about your lifeline to the world (ie an Internet connection or failing that, ideally your local library IF its open).

You can use the Internet for FAR more than simply debating politics, you know….

You can use it to build up your bottom line!

And that’s why the following is so useful (and be sure to return here once you’ve finished reading to enjoy the other goodies I’ve uncovered):

A range of income opportunities exists in e-books: Work a little just to supplement your current income, or focus on writing and marketing a series of e-books as a full-fledged career and potentially earn a substantial income.

Not only has the internet made self-publishing a profitable, easy-to-pursue opportunity available to all of us, it has given us a wide range of tools to manage the writing process, as well as all the administrative work necessary for producing a book, tracking sales, and keeping in touch with readers….”
