Wedding Season is just about over. I have spent time, here and there writing my first ECourse called the, I’m Engaged ECourse which I hope to launch to my 2017 Bride Group in October. The ECourse is available for Free and built around my EBook that I wrote earlier in the year. I am then going to launch additional ECourse off of the EBook for a total of 4 Courses, coming very soon! You can look in on those over at the wedding blog, HERE
There have been a few more ebook sales and the online income focus is picking up again!
If you’re just joining in on this monthly income report series, my goal for 2016 is to expand this blog into a financial contributor so that I can stay home more and learn with my Hooligans.
I write 2 blogs, this mom blog {You’re here! Thanks!} and another blog for my career as a Wedding & Event Coordinator, which you can find HERE. This report is a combination of the two blogs. Truth be told, it IS wedding season right now, so I am busy with my in-person clients {really busy} so blogging is taking a backseat for the next few months. I’m actually heading out the door for a rehearsal right now! #ALLSummerFridays
Please join me by subscribing below as this Newbie Blogger fumbles her way through each Ah-Ha moment and forehead slap…perhaps I’ll save you a month or two on your own blog!
To get the full rundown on my 2016 Game Plan visit my original Mommy Money on the Internet Post HERE.
The punch line for the year is to:
Build the Internet into a bigger financial contributor
September enters…
The ECourses
In real life {not this mommy blogging life here} I am a wedding planner, which I write the other blog for, before I started this one {you know this by now} My main audience is brides who are recently engaged. They are determining if they need a wedding planner or if they can do it themselves. My Ecourse is all about the first 2 weeks you’re engaged and everything you should be doing. Then the last email introduces them to my main Project Block System and Coordinating ECourses, as well as my main EBook. They can choose to continue on their own or enroll in a next ECourse and buy my book. I’ve established a bit more of a “funnel” as referred to back in February, which really changed things for me! You’ll notice below that in February I jumped from $300+ a month online to never under $500.
I did very soft marketing of the EBook this month in a few Wedding Facebook Groups and of course Pinterest and have already experienced a good turnaround.
Sales Goals

Etsy: The Vintage Event– September Report: $555.04 I sell my vintage and digital downloads here. LOTS of the EBooks sold here!
Etsy: Cotton N Kandi– September Report: $164.95 … This is the Brand for the Mom Blog where I sell my homeschool ideas, downloads and crochet. We’re slowly creeping into the holiday season which is awesome for me since I mostly make baby hats!
Blogging Goals
A Cotton Kandi Life: Income Report
As stated in my original post I believe in order to accomplish a larger blog income I must continually work at increasing my Internet presence and “impact” which is calculated by the Klout App. Klout measures your internet REACH and how many people you’re influencing.
My current Klout Stats:
Klout Score 77 or higher- Currently at 56
