Doing My Thang

OMG!

I’m so proud of myself. Today I set up the entry form and instructions for my 2nd give away on my site! Remember that the first one was the rental assistance grant and this one is a $100 Gift Card to Walmart.

Like, I want to give away stuff that will make a difference in a woman’s life. So today I was thinking, what do I need? Cuz you know, when i feel I need something then I have to find a way to give it away. Then I thought, “I wish I could go to Walmart.” You know I don’t have a car so going to Walmart is out of the question, really.

So then I said- Wait. That’s a great give away! So I decided to buy a Walmart Gift Card and give it away on my site. I consider it to be an investment in my business and hopefully, I’ll make more than the $100 I just invested as I serve tables this weekend, that is, if they don’t schedule me for the swing shift.

Anyway, I’m so excited about it. I followed all the steps I read about as I studied the business models of the successful money making bloggers. I signed up to sweepstakes websites to market my give away and I made sure to tie the ACTION steps of the give away to encourage people to LIKE us on facebook and to visit the site to read through the articles! Yay! I did everything right!

Now, I just have to cross my fingers that women actually enter the contest, but um, if they don’t, I get to keep my money! LOL I hope they do. I hope someone who really appreciates it wins it because the chick who won the rental assistance grant- ugh- No- she was so rude, asking for more money and more money and saying it wasn’t enough. I wanted to cry because I gave her all the money I had and she was STILL telling me it wasn’t enough.

Ugh! I hope I never encounter another woman like that again. She made me not want to help anyone with shit. but I realize that she’s just one person and maybe there are more appreciative people out there.

I’m so happy right now! My site is growing in leaps and bounds and I get to put into practice all the things I have been studying about launches and joint ventures and email marketing and stats and all the ladies I admire who run their own blog empire- i get to imitate and improve upon their business models because i am much more talented and innovative than anyone I have ever come across. I just wish I had unlimited resources! OOH WEE! But I’m sure that will come.

I need some more fliers and postcards and shit. But I’m sure that will come.

Everything is gonna come just when it’s supposed to. In the meantime, I’m just laying my bricks every single day. I’m doing what I can with that days resources and smiling to myself when I hang out on google plus because I’m learning SO MUCH from the smart people!
