The Ellis Family

Me and Kim just saw an ad on our blog that we thought was pretty silly, so we apologize...but if you ever click on them we get money! I've been experimenting with Google Adsense, and so far we have made $9.67 for doing absolutely nothing! If your not familiar with Adsense you should check it out - get a google account and then get a google adsense account.

Also, I'm still in the process of writing my ebook about how to make drums. So far I have about 30 pages. I'm pretty excited about this. My inspiration for this ebook came from listening to the Internet Business Mastery (IBM) podcasts. You can find it free on Itunes or check out www.internetbusinessmastery.com

An internet business (specifically selling an ebook) appeals to me because:

1. There are no costly entrance barriers to the market. (I bought makedrums.com, buildcustomdrums.com and makecustomdrums.com all for $7 each, and just by placing ads on the parked domains i've made 1/3 of it back)
   
2. It will allow me to work anywhere I want to as long as I have an internet connection.
3. There is no risk. I just use my spare time to write this ebook and build the site, and if it sells - Great! If it doesn't sell the only thing i've wasted is my spare time.

I wish I could say that I thought of all this, but like I said IBM is one of the most inspiring entreprenuerial podcasts i've found. If you enjoy reading you might want to check out a book called The Four Hour Work Week by Timothy Ferriss. It is also one of those books that has inspired me.

Once my ebook is up and the sites are up i'll let you know if all this big talk amounts to anything! I hope it does!
