Goal met and exceeded

So today I've exceeded my goal of doubling money income from last month.

Today I hit 50+ dollars for the month, and the month is not over. I'm going to set a new goal of 70 dollars.

I'm also upping my goals for the coming months to reflect this change.

Nov = 100 dollars (up from 80)

Dec = 200 dollars ( up from 160)

Jan = 400 dollars ( up from 320)

Feb = 800 dollars ( up from 640)

Mar = 1600 dollars ( up from 1280)

April = 3200 dollars ( up from 2560) * at this point I'll have enough

-ebay - 12 (this was 1/2 of my investment for latest shippment, so I've almost turned a profit now.)

Kindle = 42 dollars (ish) I made some money in foreign currency. Amazon still pays me in dollars, but it might change depending on the currency rate.

shapeways - zilch

etsy = zilch.


There are alot of complaints about Etsy sales going down this month, Enough so that I am worried about continuing to sell there.

As a result, I'm taking my store to Amazon Made which is a new store on amazon. I've also updated my listings

I am not going to concentrate any more on avenues that are not making me any money. As Ebay and amazon are the ones making the most money I'm going to focus on making products there. I will revisit this when and if the other stores make a sale. I'm still going to advertise them (a little) but I will not make another product for them.

Kindle is more profitable than I thought. I'm writing a new book this weekend and going to start a Japanese learning Youtube channel to advertise my books.

As for the etsy store, I've found craft supply stores sell more than craft stores. I'm opening a bead store there and we'll see how that goes.
