Are you interested in learning about one of the best ways to make money blogging? I’m talking about affiliate marketing for bloggers!

8 Reasons Why I Absolutely Love Affiliate Marketing For Bloggers #affiliatemarketingforbloggers #howtomakemoney #howtomakemoneybloggingIf you’re a blogger and want to learn how to make money blogging, you need to learn about affiliate marketing for bloggers.

There are many great ways to make money blogging (as talked about here — How I Successfully Built A $1,000,000+ Blog), but my favorite way by far is affiliate marketing.

Earning affiliate income is something that I’m extremely grateful for, especially lately. We have been so busy with life, and I haven’t spent as much time on the business as I like to.

Having this passive income source allows me to keep earning blogging income comfortably.

See, even though I am spending less time on the blog, I am still earning a great income each month, and this allows me to focus on a better work-life balance. [Read more…]

How I Made Money Online In October 2019

November 13, 2019 BY Michelle Schroeder-Gardner - 9 Comments

Welcome to October 2019's business report where I show you how I made money online and traveled full-time last month. It's time to look at this month's update and see how I did.

If you're new to Making Sense of Cents, you may be wondering why I would want to publish my business report each month.

This all started as my extra income report because, in the beginning, it was all about the money I was earning from my side jobs. In my side income reports from the beginning, I included all of the income I made except for what I made at my day job.

However, I left my day job as a financial analyst in October of 2013 and now my monthly business reports consist of the many ways I earn a living with my business. [Read more…]

Are you wanting to learn how to be productive?

Are you wanting to learn how to be productive? If you want to learn how to concentrate and how to have a productive day, then read this. #howtobeproductive #productivitytipsAre you feeling like you aren't as productive as you usually are? Or, perhaps life is really busy right now and you want to be able to manage it all better.

Many people struggle with how to be productive. We all have lots of things to do and sometimes we can accomplish them all, and other times it is very difficult.

I go through productivity spurts.

At times, I feel like I can accomplish anything and everything, and other days I don't even know what (if anything) I did all day. 

This is an area that I am constantly working on, and perhaps you are too.

Sometimes I am distracted by so many different things that it has caused me to waste a huge amount of time. Therefore, I have not been able to live in the moment like I would really like to.

How Sarah Earns $5,000,000 A Year With Shopify

October 30, 2019 BY Michelle Schroeder-Gardner - 11 Comments

Today, I have a fun interview to share with you that will show you how to start an online store. I recently had the chance to interview Sarah Titus of Million Dollar Shop and SarahTitus.com, who explains exactly how to start an online store and make extra income. If you want to learn how to make passive income, this is a great option!

How Sarah Earns $5,000,000 A Year With Shopify #howtostartanonlinestore #makeextramoneyHere's her easy-to-understand definition of what she does:

“An online store is the same thing as your local grocery store, except that it’s online. So you go to your grocery store, you see a bunch of products and you buy them. Same thing here. It’s a digital store. So instead of buying celery, you’re buying printables that help you organize your entire life, that create calm in the chaos for you.”

If you are looking for a new business or even just a side hustle, learning how to start an online store may be something that you want to look into.

Check out the interview below for more information. She answers questions such as:

  • How much money she currently earns
  • How much time this takes her
  • What exactly an online store is
  • What you can sell with an online store
  • How she finds customers

And much, much more! [Read more…]

Did you know that you can share your car with travelers on a daily, weekly, or even on a long-term basis and make extra money? I’m talking about listing your car and making money on Turo, which is like Airbnb for cars.

Did you know that you can share your car with travelers on a daily, weekly, or even on a long-term basis and make extra money? I’m talking about listing your car and making money on Turo, which is like Airbnb for cars. #makingmoneyonturo #makeextramoney #rentyourcarIt takes as little as 10 minutes to list your car, and you can earn up to 90% of the trip price.

Sharing your car and making money on Turo has many benefits, such as:

  • You can use the money to pay for your car expenses. With the average Turo Host earning $500 each month, most people generate enough money to completely offset their car payments.
  • If you don’t have a car payment, the extra money you make with Turo can be used for retirement savings, paying off debt, and more.
  • You can make extra money passively. This is a no brainer!
  • The average car sits idle in driveways 95% of the time. If your car goes unused a lot, then this can be a way to offset a depreciating asset.

But, what is Turo exactly?  [Read more…]
