Monetize.
It sounds like something a superhero would say, like “flame on” or….or….what’s another superhero–ee thing to say?
“LET’S MONEYTIZE!!!”
When I started writing this blog, I read some things about “monetizing your blog”… “make money with your blog”…..”get the money”….”money, money, money”.
So…where’s this money going to come from? I don’t have any ads for people to click on. I don’t have anything to sell. I don’t have any raffles or lotteries or voodoo candles or…anything, really.
All I have to sell is my enthusiasm for life and the creative process.
So…here I am….
“LET’S MONEYTIZE!!!! FLAME ON!!!”
At some point in the future, I’m going to get this whole making money thing down…you won’t even see it coming.
People will click on this blog (kaaaaaaching)….”what the heck was that?” (kaaaaaaachinggggg)….”no…really…what was that sound? (kaaaachiiiiiinnnnngggggggg)….”do you hear it? It sounds like money?!” (kaaachinnnnnggggggg)…
And…before they even know what hit them….I’ll be Scrooge McDucking it all….sitting on top of the world.
When I was in Art School (capitalized for maximum effect), we used to make fun of the graphic design majors with their nice clothes and briefcases. Illustration majors straddled the line between Fine Arts and commercialization…we could still be in the “arteeest” club.
“What’s with all this money stuff? We’re FINE ARTISTS !! WE BE ‘PO !! ”
Monetizing wasn’t even in the vocabulary…all we talked about in the financial realm was where to get a good deal on art supplies and where the cheap buffets were.
Now it’s all about the Benjamins. (What’s that? Like a hundred or something?)
So…I need to sign up for some adsense…enough of this other nonsense…maybe fly some banner ads…get some subscribers, maybe even charge people to read this blog?
Have a raffle? bake sale? car wash?
I GOTS TO MONETIZE!!!
I GOTS TO MONEYTIZE RIGHT NOW.
FLAME ON !!!
