I count on Me, Myself and I.
| Today I went grocery shopping and got a sense of renewal that I am indeed on the right path here. As I was wandering up and down the aisles I got the chance to talk to a woman who is the mom of my childhood friend, this lady was like a second mom to me. It was nice catching up with her. I finished my shopping after talking with her and paid for my purchases. As I was walking out the door, the manager who I have known for years stopped me for a few minutes. He asked if I was still writing and I told him I was indeed still writing. The store he manages will be closed soon and the employees will be reassigned elsewhere at 4 dollar less than what they are making now. He will have to start out as a brand new employee and his 35 years of working for the company will be erased. That is such a shame and I know it happens all over the United States in these tough times. He is a single dad and has been for a long time, so I know he will have it rough. Anyways when he found out, I was a Vertical Manager over at Mahalo.com he asked if perhaps he could get a job working with me. He enjoys writing and being on the internet and he knows music, which is the Vertical where I work. This will be a good match for him with his musical background. I told him to send me an email and I’d talk with him about it. I realized after I left the store how sad the job outlook is in my small town of 2,000. Most people are working their butts off at 10 bucks an hour or less and they are thankful to have jobs. Most people locally bring home less than 1,000 bucks a month and I usually bring in more than that from working at home. That is when it dawned on me how blessed I am to work from home making a decent wage. I began writing on the internet April 17, 2007 at a site called Associated Content, and I continued to write there actively until September of 2009. I also have written on Helium, Bukisa, ehow, Demand Studios, and Bright Hub. I still collect page views from the 2000 plus articles on those sites but the money I receive from those sites combined do not equal a quarter of what I can make on Mahalo.com. I know I am on the right path here, because I am a single mom who runs a household, buys the groceries, and pays the bills while so many two-parent families are losing their homes. I feel bad for them, but it makes me proud to know I am doing it myself. Yes, I may complain about not having enough money for a car, but I can proudly say I am doing it all otherwise. Besides, I live in town and where my feet cannot take me there is always a cab that will pick me up at my front door. http://www.mahalo.com/member/amybrownehttp://www.bukisa.com/people/amyjobrowne http://www.associatedcontent.com/user/70226/amy_browne.html http://www.brighthub.com/members/amybrowne.aspx http://www.ehow.com/members/AmyBrowne-articles.html http://www.helium.com/user/show/273333 http://www.cafepress.com/bahamachick http://twitter.com/AmyBrowne |

I write on Helium and Associated Content and together they are making quite the difference for me!
Just look at how my earnings have transpired and you will see great benefits to what I am talking about and I urge you to do the same.
January I wrote 44 articles to helium, 10 of which were market place articles (two sold for 23.50) 68 articles added on associated content sold for $218.38 (31 of those were freebies). I got a page view bonus on helium for pennies and associated content’s page view bonus was $34.29.It was $276.17 in my pocket to add to the child support I get which made things easier.
In February 69 articles to helium and I added 75 articles to associated content (16 were freebies) for a total of 283.64 plus a page view bonus of $49.50. I did not sell any market place articles, so my pay for this month was $333.14 to which made my child support stretch even further.
In March, I added 78 to helium’s base of articles, 17 of these were market place articles. I got a taste of market place sales and I got greedy. I did not sell any of those marketplace articles, and they came to associated content in April. I added 83 articles to associated content of which 29 were free and received $201.26 and a page view bonus of $50.96 for a total of $252.22. It was low no doubt but I knew April would be better.
As of April 16, I have added 20 articles to Helium of which 5 are marketplace articles, but the rest have went to associated content as non-exclusives along with the other place articles, which did not sell, on Helium. That promotion that began a few days before I began helium finished today and I received $364.00 from that. I was doing a happy dance that is quite a reward to say the least. I have added 47 articles on associated content; of which 19 were free; I have earned $141.56 and got a page view bonus of $67.73. I am sitting at $573.29 so far and the month is half over. Along with my child support, I have finally hit the $1000.00 mark a month since I changed careers last summer.
I am already at a page view bonus of almost $50.00 for May from associated content, and you maybe wondering why I am sharing this detailed information. It is because I feel the need not to gloat, but to show others that it can be done. My page views bonus are steadily rising and it is because I write so much, posting everyday, which helps with income coming in.
Breakdown of what helium and associated content has done for me.
I know only about half of the money I made January (on associated content) can be claimed here. $23.50 Plus $109 from (ac) which is $132.50
$132.50
$333.14
$252.22
$573.29
is a whopping $1291.15 helium not only has increased my income it has increased by writing skills and given me new hope that I can succeed at this thing called freelance writing. That is a good number for sitting on my butt and writing for three and a half months, and coupled with the child support it makes a livable wage.
Thank goodness I do not have a mortgage with outlandish interest fees like others do, and that is helping me. My reward from helium will almost pay May’s house payment, and I only have to add the page view bonus for May to it and I will have it. Helium’s reward and ac’s may page view bonus is paying my house payment, how freaking cool is that.
