MARCH 2024 FORECAST

Raise Your Hand if You’re TIRED of the B.S. and Ready to Earn More Money!

Are you prepared to learn all you can about the FOM topics and themes?

Sometimes when I get frustrated at myself for not accomplishing my goals, I have to stop and remind myself that I’m only human, and there’s only so much that I can accomplish in 24 hours.

Nonetheless, I still can’t help feeling like I need to be more proactive on Medium, if I’m ever going to earn more money from my stories.

  • Does anyone else out there feel like there’s something more they should be doing, but they’re not exactly sure what?
  • How many writers out there are frustrated, tired of the B.S, and ready to crack this thing like a nut?

As a matter of fact, raise your hand if you’re determined to solve this crazy “how to increase my earnings” puzzle that’s tougher than a Rubik’s cube.

I’m about to go BIG or go home, and anyone who wants to, can come along for the ride.

Let me tell you how and why I’m stepping things up…

Combining former Medium strategies for success

Since I’m a rational person, I know that everyone has the same exact 24 hours in a day as I do. That means that those writers who manage to accomplish much more in the same amount of time, must be doing something very different and very right.

I need to figure out what exactly that something is.

This is why in the month of March, I’ll be taking a long hard look at so many of the successful strategies and writing advice that I’ve shared over the past couple of years.

👉 So many of my tips and strategies have worked successfully for me, even though there are some smart techniques that I simply don’t use as much as I should.

Remember these:

👉 This super cool “Tag Team” strategy of publishing dual stories in the same day, is still a KILLER idea, but one I don’t use so often anymore.

👉 Even though I now have some additional strategic views about what the best time of day to publish stories, the information in the above story has some sound logic that writers might want to consider, just like I plan to start experimenting with it again.

This story about how to benefit from trending topics and themes, so you can increase your earnings, is a no brainer, that I find myself totally sleeping on these days!

As you can see, these are three really useful strategies, and the fact that I could be applying all three of them on a regular basis, makes me wonder just how much of a benefit that I’m truly missing out on.

It doesn’t matter now, because all that is about to change.

If I ever expect to see the type of improvement to my stats that I’m long overdue for, it’s going to require big and bold moves on my part.

Just in case you’re wondering if my plans include stepping up all the activities related to Friends of Medium (FOM), you’re darn right!

Right now, I have no doubt that many of the writers on Medium who are starting to see a lot more success on the platform, are members who benefit from opportunities related to FOM.

I say this with such certainty, because at one point, I saw my own stats begin to rise, just days after I upgraded my Medium account to FOM status.

In spite of some minor setbacks, that almost sent me spiraling out of control, I’ve managed to gain a lot of clarity about what I need to do, going forward.

So right now, I’m still just as committed to the idea that the FOM program provides multiple opportunities for anyone smart enough to take advantage of it.

Neglecting to join, or leaving the program too soon are both unwise decisions as far as I’m concerned, and I’m determined to prove that I’m right on that point — so I have to stick around to do it.

I’m dead set on seeing my FOM related activities pay off higher than ever in the month of March.

If and when I can make that happen, I plan to keep things growing substantially higher, and on a consistent basis.

So what I want to know, is: Who’s in?

Reading and continued support

Before anyone starts to get a little antsy, you don’t really have to raise your hands and respond, because actually, “Who’s in” was just a rhetorical question.

I’m totally okay with members continuing to read my stories, as a way to offer their support. The club, the pub, and the newsletter don’t seem to matter to anyone at this point.

I have no expectations regarding anyone else, because the only one that I can truly hold accountable, is myself.

After the slow, to no responses that I tend to get from you sleepy bunch of writers, I already suspect that my step it up activities will amount to me going it alone; but it’s fine.

However, I’m still hopeful, that as I continue with my various efforts to help others (though selfishly motivated), a few members will decide to join in along the way.

This time, I won’t be repeating my unsuccessful attempts to formally unify a group of loyal FOM members, and establish a solid support system for everyone.

That train left the station, and no one was truly interested in riding. Even my responses to the following story was basically met with indifference from most members:

As it currently stands, with the exception of a HANDFUL of club members that I will continue providing unlimited support to, my Friends Reading Club roster has been drastically reduced.

📌 Oddly enough, I’m not ready to give up on my publication, like I normally would, and I’m glad for the chance to conduct a really close examination and a few experiments, related to making money as a staunch FOM supporter.

📌 I wouldn’t be surprised, if my Justiss Goode profile currently has more stories than any writer on Medium, on the Friends of Medium topic and theme.

Final Thoughts

My main priority when I started my FOM related publication, was to center all my content around this controversial, beneficial, and totally lucrative topic.

Besides my own discontent with the way my stats were constantly looking, I also noticed something else:

Writers who were just as irritated, frustrated, and confused as me, not to mention those who were simply mad as hell.

In the short amount of time that I’ve been focusing on the topic of FOM, I have not seen things changing for the better, for the MAJORITY of writers.

So for those of you who are tired of the same old same old, I invite you to spend the month of March with me, as we dissect, examine, and analyze the ins and outs, ups and downs of everything dealing with FOM.

My Friends Reading Club publication is about to be on a month long mission, super focused on discovering the very best tips and strategies for earning money as a FOM member.

And this time it’s personal…
