Affiliate Musketeer

OK, so it’s the credit crunch here in the UK.  I have an exploding credit card bill and I need to pay £460 by the 28th November 2008.  The strength of the £ to the $ at the moment is weak, which is good news if I’m working in $s, and it means I need to make $690 in 11 days by any means possible to stop my card from going into arrears!

Now this is aside from all of my other projects, this is something that needs to come from online work in whatever form, fixing pages, sellings ads, selling links whatever I can do to make this money.

OK, so what are my skills?  Well, I can code CSS/XHTML, WordPress Themes, Write copy pretty well, carry out minor server changes, flip websites, I’m a certified Google AdWords Professional…I have a number of online properties that have just been sitting there for a while.  Maybe it’s time to try and monetize them?

So what IS $690?  Well, it’s 10 products at $69 each, 10 sales of $69 each…or, 20 sales at $35 each…this seems more possible.  I could custom code a nice WordPress Theme, sell the sponsored links on it, then perhaps make it work with Build a Niche Store, and then sell the final theme for $35 each, including installation.

I could find a nice clickbank product that pays out at least $35 per sale, throw up a landing page and try and sell 20 in 11 days….

Ok, so my mind is racing with possibilities but I need a plan of action.  *Has a quick think.*

Ok, mind made up, I will try and do as much as I can, from all of these possibilities and then list the earnings that I receive from them in 11 days’ time.  I am halfway through a custom WordPress Theme that will integrate into Build a Niche Store, so that’s where I’ll start.
