๐ Overworking for Little Output
Do you ever feel that you are working all the hours and still earning nothing? It maybe that you are trying to work on too many platforms or the wrong ones.
One of my greatest faults is that I tend to be everything on every site. As a result, I stretch myself too thin and produce barely any content as I have to produce content for ten sites.
Every so often, I take stock; sort it out and delete the ones I am not using, and promise I will never do it again. But, sure enough, give it two years and I am repeating the process.
Many of you might feel like this, but to be fair, it is a fool's errand. To make money writing, you only need to be active on one writing site and one social media site.
At the beginning of this year, I was determined to work on Substack, Twitter, and little else. But, as some may know, I have been conducting an experience on Twitter and PostNews this month.
The short version of the result has shown that Twitter may be a dead social media platform. I do not say this lightly because Twitter has always been one of my favourite places to hang out. The full results will be published this week so look out for a notification in the chat for it.
The new plan is to concentrate on Substack and PostNews, if you are on these platforms, then reply to this email with your link and I will promote your sites next week.
If you enjoy this email, please share it so that more readers can find it.
Until next week stay safe
