The hardest work you will ever do (if you choose to) is to understand that what is presented in this book is likely the easiest way you could ever create additional income. I’ll repeat that because it’s that important… the hardest work you will ever do is to realize just how simply you could be creating additional income.
Don’t read that as just a play on words. It may indeed be challenging to step out of your own way, bring in logic and reason and recognize that what is being presented is a legitimate means to… dare I say it… easy money. Disclaimer: As I stated, it will only be “easy” once you did the hard work which is learning why and how it’s “easy”.

Ways to Generate Income
Brainstorm some of the ways for creating extra income. You could
make a list with hundreds of ideas, but focus in on the ones that:
• can be set on autopilot or have automated/residual earnings characteristics (meaning free of your time as you have work, the kids, responsibilities and everything else eating up 24+ hours of your every day)
• are low investment and low risk (I’m guessing you don’t have $250,000 sitting in the bank ready to invest into a business nor can you afford to lose large sums of money)
• provide high yield potential
A part-time job doesn’t qualify. Stock investing is out. Real Estate isn’t an option. Neither is building the next big tech company. Even franchising is time dependent and high investment.
Marketing, however, is a whole different animal. That’s what we’re here to talk about.
Remix Reading is an artistic project based in Reading, Berkshire. It's aim is to get local artists to share their work under Creative Commons licenses and to remix culture.
Remix Commons is a network of free culture projects in the UK. Our aim is to get artists (working with music, video, images and text) to come together and share their work, be inspired by each others' work, and ultimately to create "remixes". Our volunteers run local events promoting free culture, bringing the ideas and content to people across the UK who would never find this stuff online.
