Weekend Reading: Lets Get Passive

posted on March 6th

I‘ve had a very productive week, hows your week been?  I redesigned the landing page for the flipped book,  added new features to Task.fm (in beta), and launched a couple of niche mini sites.

Here are some of the posts that caught my eye this past week:

My Massive Passive Income Brain Dump – its always nice to see people using your advice.  This is a great motivating post.

Here’s Why I don’t Have a Full Time Virtual Assistant – There are a number of schools of thought when it comes to hiring a VA.   Pat explains why he doesn’t use a full-time assistant. I don’t either and use a similar setup to Pat.

Thanks for including my post in your list. I think it is important to remember that it is our blog and we control the direction that it goes!

I love your sales page for Flipped. It is simple and not one of the 10km long pages that take forever to read. The idea to include a free coaching session is a great move.

Thanks man. I hate long sales pages and the ones that have the big red headline with a horrible design. I think its time we pushed the standard of these designs. Too long internet marketers have gotten away with bad design ;)

Anthony,

Thanks! I needed to put down my thoughts and after reading your post and debating whether I should expose them, I asked myself, “why not?”

I agree with Tom there, I was checking out your ‘build a blog’ video and page and and sales page for “Flipped”. Love your work so far.

Have you ever done a coaching session?

P.S. I thought it was the awful IE browser I was using at work, but right now I’m using Firefox 3.5.8; this CommentLuv plugin isn’t working.

hmm not sure why the plugin isn’t working. Thanks for letting me know. I’ll try and fix it.

I do coaching sessions with readers of Flipped (it comes free with the ebook).

Really nice design on the landing page, but I didn’t see the old one so I can’t say if its an improvement or not.

Thanks for the resources.

Roy
