I hear so many stories about how people need $1,000 by Friday or how they don’t know how they’ll make next month’s rent. They ask me how to make money fast. They think signing up as an affiliate from scratch would help them rake in several thousand dollars but you have to have built a list to take in thousands in one day.

It takes awhile to be able to make money fast when you need it. For example, when I first started out, I had to bid on writing projects and wait to get picked. There was nothing fast about it. Now, however, after a few years of branding myself as a top ghostwriter and a marketer, I have two ways I can make money quickly online.

I can use the list I’ve built to recommend s QUALITY (key word here) product. If I promote crap, my list might as well be a pile of poo because they won’t trust me enough to listen to my recommendations. Even when I need money for whatever (taxes, kids’ private school, etc.), I never even think of pulling the wool over my subscribers’ eyes.

Why? Because I get dozens of emails saying, “Tiffany – I trust you. I don’t have the money for this unless it’s really going to help me. Please be honest.” So I am. I’ve been there before so to advise people to burn their money would make me feel just as bad as if I had stood behind them and pilfered through their wallet and stolen. I won’t do it, period.

Another way to make money fast on the ‘net is to learn a craft and piggyback on other offers. This is HUGE! As a ghostwriter, I can launch a special and take in $5,000-$15,000 in one day. I’ve done it many, many times. My biggest day was $26,000 – but that was from one customer

However, here’s how you can utilize services if you don’t have the reputation yet:

1.) Join the Warrior Forum free at http://www.warriorforum.com/index.php?referrerid=35453 and participate on the forum regularly so people get to know you and so that you can keep your eyes peeled on the WSO forum.

2.) Hone your skills – whether it’s writing, graphics, or website building. Can you build a lens on Squidoo or a Hub on Hub Pages? Can you bookmark a link? That’s a skill people pay for.

3.) Look for piggyback ideas. For example. I found and loved and then promoted Info Product Killer. My list loved it, But many asked me if I had anyone who knew how to do graphics for their pages. I said no at the time but my husband piped up and said, “Oh that’s easy!”

This image is one my husband made for the Bakugan Battle Brawlers 6-pack – one of the top selling toys on Amazon.com this year. I had NO clue how to do the wording with it, but he did. So he created the images. We’re creating packs of these to sell to others who bought IPK because I’m sure many are in the same boat.

Others could piggyback off of me. I have people who buy my Building an eBook Empire who, although they get directions on how to set up their site, don’t have time or patience for it, so they want to know if there’s anyone who can simply upload ftp files for them!! You could make money off of stuff like this.

John Lawlor has created a tactic called Slump Marketing, where you harness the power of various online tools and sites to keep your business afloat.

As an online marketer, you may think your business is exempt from recession issues, but it’s no different – consumers are going to pick and choose how and where they spend ANY extra money they have after necessities.

We should all be considering how to recession proof our business. Lawlor does a great job of explaining it.

Well I decided to part with a lens I’ve sat on for 3 months that’s earned me $493. I hate to get rid of it, but I also own some other toddler toy lens URLs, so I can create a new one with no problem.

My sale is here: http://socialmarketing101.com/blog/uncategorized/top-toddler-toys-lens-for-sale-already-earned-493-in-3-months.php in case you want to see it.

I REALLY need an auction site or some way to hold private bids. I have a silent bidder who doesn’t want his niche known, so he’s the first bidder. But how do you convey that to new bidders? Hmm. Hard to say! There need to be more selling outlets online.

This is a phrase I found thumbing through a book at Barnes and Noble this week. Really had an impact on me. I believe wholeheartedly in this statement, because I live it. It’s how I create products, it’s how I find blog post ideas, and how I communicate with my customers.

R&D, for those who don’t know, is research and development. For those of you sitting there scratching your head wondering where ideas come from, they come from the world around you! One of the BEST resources I’ve found, for instance is Woman’s Weekly magazine. They’re a national weekly publication and inside those pages, you find information on herbs, beauty, stress, relationships, money, and more!

Another great resource? My 15-year old son. Whatever he’s into is going to be profitable online – because he’s a spender! Halo 3? He himself sold 3 Squidoo lenses and raked in $100 per lens on the topic.

The news. Bird flu. Baby Boomers. Debt. It’s all in the news.

The ‘net. Social marketing. Forums. eBay. Squidoo. TrendHunter. ClickBank.

You have to start looking around, whipping out your notebook and jotting down quick ideas for later use. Watch your keyword stats – see how people are searching, and then use those in your web content, your blog posts, and products!

You have a vast number of resources around you – get organized with a Word doc and an Excel spredsheet and get busy!
