It’s been a huge pile of fun, a huge pile of work, and i’ve met people I never would have any other way.

18 months in I still feel like I’m just starting on my Squid Journey here. Every day I learn more and more, the curve never seems to go away.

I haven’t made my million yet but I’m hoping to get there by just jumping straight to 2 million first.

Yep. http://www.captainsquid.com/can-squidoo-make-you-500-in-one-day-yep/ http://www.captainsquid.com/can-squidoo-make-you-500-in-one-day-yep/#comments Wed, 29 Oct 2008 00:09:16 +0000 Captain Squid http://www.captainsquid.com/?p=277 September was a pretty stinky month (relatively) for earnings from Squidoo. Of course, Hurricane Ike decidedly played a role in the drop off in money made from Squidoo. However, October is quickly turning into my best month ever by far.

In fact, I broke the $500 mark in one day for the first time yesterday!

I know I said I wasn’t going to announce anything until I hit the $1,000 a day mark, but I was pretty excited so I thought that I would share.

Could end up breaking the $5,000 mark for the month depending on how the last few days pan out…

I don’t mean for this post to brag (okay, maybe a little) but it just goes to show what you can accomplish with Squidoo if you just keep pounding day in and day out creating awesome lenses that sell great stuff.

I don’t sell ebooks on any of my lenses, although a lot of people do well with them and I don’t begrudge them that at all.

In fact, I don’t build lenses about things that I don’t feel comfortable talking to people about face to face in real life. I guess that is my true litmus test on what to build lenses on.

Either way, I’m halfway to the $1,000 / day mark, maybe I can hit it by the end of the year! we shall see….
