My Medium Writing Income Stream Update (My First Full Month)

Hey there, fellow income seekers! I'm excited to share my journey into the world of passive income, particularly through my experience on Medium. In this update, I'll spill the beans on how my first full month went, the ups, the downs, and everything in between.

Introduction to Medium: My dive into Medium began thanks to Danny on demand, a guru in the realm of passive income streams. If you're into creating and selling digital assets, you might want to check out his upcoming master class on making coloring pages. It's a game-changer for platforms like Amazon KDP, Etsy, and Creative Fabrica.

Medium Progress Update: So, drumroll, please! After a month on Medium, I set a goal to reach 100 subscribers for monetization. Alas, I landed at 87 followers. But hey, Rome wasn't built in a day! I applied for the author badge, and fingers crossed, it takes a couple of weeks for them to respond.

Publication Stats: In the spirit of transparency, I published 18 articles on Medium, falling short of my target of 30. Learning the ropes of formatting and visual appeal reminded me of my early struggles with Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP).

Adjusting Goals: Life's all about adjustments, right? Not hitting my April goals made me realize the importance of setting deadlines and tweaking goals accordingly. For May, my sights are set on monetization with 13 more followers and 15 new articles.

Balancing Commitments: With a hectic schedule, including a rental property project, finding the equilibrium between realism and ambition is crucial. Medium, like YouTube and KDP, is a long game. It takes effort, but the payoff is worth it.

Ready to join me on this Medium journey? Let me know your thoughts in the comments! Here's to realistic goals and the promise of a monetized June update.
