This website is still around... and still has great info!
Actually, I'm amazed it's still around...
I'm talking about Bill Myers' website... BMyers.com ... https://www.bmyers.com He retired from online activities I think around 2020... And said he'd keep his website online for a while... I have no idea when he'll take it down... But while it's still up, I recommend checking out what's there and absorbing the illuminating info! Anything there you particularly like? Please share it here! Best wishes, Dien Last edited by Dien Rice : December 27, 2024 at 02:07 AM. |

Time machine. Back to the future.
Best thousand bux I spent last century was Bill's IDEA BANK, and a bargain at that.
Before he disappears it all, here is the link to his VENDOMATIC, give it a try, and see how to instantly create AUTOMATIC PRODUCT VENDING sites in minutes. This has been worth thousands to me... the so-called eVending sites. https://www.bmyers.com/vendomatic/ So thanks for reminder, save as much as you can, this was tested and proven success from a master.

eVending was the turning point for me.
If you read or are reading Bill's article on eVending, you'll see it was written in 2002, and that is when I made a complete turn around. My model from then on, became, low cost eVending information products offered a few (6) times per year. It totally changed my income streams, made life easier and I did less work and more FUN stuff too.
I actually started to whittle down my list, from several thousands to just a few thousand...and those were buyers about 75% of all offers made, at below 20 bux. So, 6 times a year, once a quarter and one Xmas in July and the other at the real Holidays, with a high % of buyers for my "peanuts on the bar" (as friend Jim Straw would say). And that is what I did for over 20 years. But you will find many ideas at Bill Myers' site, many with video, which I never bothered with. Being a lazy man, I wanted the path of least resistance to get max dollars in min time. And eVending suited me just fine. Hope you find something that suits you. Lots of great ideas over there, again, thanks Dien for the reminder. Gordon Quote:

What for me is Bill Myers' most memorable newsletter issue...
For me, this is one of the most memorable issues of Bill Myers' newsletter...
"The Chicken Hilton and the Big Blue Tent" It explains how - even though he had a regular job - Bill Myers came to live for six months in a tent! Every morning, he'd bathe and shave in a stream... then go to work! Why did he do this? He wanted to be financially free... And one way to do that is to get control of your finances... which he did! It may be a bit extreme... Yet still inspiring! Read it here (while it's still up)... https://www.bmyers.com/public/915.cfm Best wishes, Dien Quote:

RE: You are your best customer
Thanks for posting this Dien!
As usual, you have found ANOTHER quality diamond that was in plain sight. With the WEALTH of information available, if we just take the time to seek it out, our business solutions SHOULD be easy to fix... if we just do it. I appreciate you taking the time to find all these jewels. Warmly, Millard |

Another great issue... "Women & Guns"...
Hi Millard,
Here's another great past issue of Bill Myers' newsletter... This one is about how Bill's wife, Sonya, came to start her newsletter, "Women & Guns"... She didn't choose that topic at random! Her process is worth reading about! "Success on a Shoestring" https://www.bmyers.com/public/166.cfm Best wishes! Dien Quote:

More useful background info about "Women & Guns"...
Some more useful background info on "Women & Guns" (newsletter / magazine)...
It was started in 1989 by Sonny Jones (i.e. Sonya Myers - Jones was her maiden name)... It started off as a paid-subscription only newsletter... At some point, it also came to be sold on newsstands. Sonya (Sonny) also passed the baton at some stage to others to run it... It grew to a circulation of 20,000... (That's pretty successful!) It is now just a website, however... Here are some interesting links, if you're interested in the history... Sonny elevates gun awareness among women (1991) https://archive.md/dSZJl Arkansan created Women & Guns (2012) https://www.arkansasonline.com/news/...guns-20120619/ Final Thoughts From the Editor (2019) https://www.womenandguns.com/final-t...om-the-editor/ Women & Guns website https://www.womenandguns.com Quote:
