Do you Squidoo?

Making money, Scanner resources Comments Off on Do you Squidoo?

Squidoo is a place you can share your expertise on a topic with the rest of the world. It’s a cross between Wikipedia and a blog and it’s perfect for Scanners. Write a “lens” on your latest passion and then you can link to your own website to create traffic.

Scanners Night regular Rosemary has written a lens on “Earning money when you have a Scanner personality”. Have a read.

Squidoo was created by marketing brainiac Seth Godin. If you’re feeling entrepreneurial, have a read of his blog. I love it.

Making money, Productivity Comments Off on Don’t be a lonely Scanner

Do you have an idea for a book, a business or other project? Barbara Sher (Queen of the Scanners) says that “Isolation is the dream killer”. You don’t need self-discipline and you don’t need self improvement if you’ll just get other people to support you and hold you accountable.

Judith Morgan (our July Scanners Night Special Guest) runs a great membership site to do just this. It’s lonelyentrepreneur.com and if you’re one of the first 1000 joiners, you get to be a member for life for FREE.

Here’s what you get: Access coaching calls with Business Coach Judith Morgan, get coached live, ask your questions and get answers, update us with your progress, be held accountable, get pointers, audio classes, business plan guides, millionaire ideas, and wealth creation strategies. Network with other solo entrepreneurs; give and receive wisdom; become part of a Mastermind Team.

And all for free if you join right now. Why free? Because we want to reach a critical mass of 1000 people so that the site will have huge value to everyone who joins. There are currently nearly 800 members. At the current rate of signups, we should hit our target very soon. (So get in fast before we hit 1000 or you’ll have to pay to join!)

This is also a good way to contact other scanners.

1000 True Fans

Artists, Creativity, Making money Comments Off on 1000 True Fans

Here’s an item from a recent email I sent to everyone signed up on the Scanners list (enter your email on the front page to get meeting notifications & occasional updates).

Do you have 1000 True Fans?

Whether you’re an artist, performer, videomaker, photographer, writer, or freelancer, you don’t need an audience of millions. You just need 1000 True Fans according to Kevin Kelly in his recent article.

(Kevin is a fascinating guy – ex editor of Wired Magazine and definitely a Scanner.)

If you can attract 1000 True Fans who spend an average of $100 a year on you, your art, or your products ‘n’ services, you can make a living.

A True Fan is “someone who will purchase anything and everything you produce. They will drive 200 miles to see you sing. They will buy the super deluxe re-issued hi-res box set of your stuff even though they have the low-res version. They have a Google Alert set for your name. They bookmark the eBay page where your out-of-print editions show up. They come to your openings. They have you sign their copies. They buy the t-shirt, and the mug, and the hat. They can’t wait till you issue your next work.”

I love this idea and thought it would appeal to us as Scanners who have too many interests to develop a huge audience for any one thing.

(There is a particularly brilliant idea for getting paid in advance to publish your own book, CD or film in the article).

Read Kevin’s full article “1000 True Fans” here.

Let me know what you think of it.

(Funnily enough, it’s similar to the point I made on my recent audioclass “A Crash Course in Seduction“.)
