Just a quick post to say that our Become a Mumpreneur Course that we launched in Jan 2011 is having one more intake of members before it closes forever.

This course offers the most training for the least investment of all our courses and has been really well received. If you want to join be very quick as it closes at 9pm Friday 3rd Feb.

If you know me at all, you know one of my hobbies is making money! I’m not a greedy person and I’m not particularly materialistic. It’s a challenge thing, a bit like when you try and beat your own score at scrabble or something. You do that too, right?

I was intrigued by the idea that you could make money from a credit card, although you need to be *really* on the ball to make it work.

Watch this video to see how…

Here’s what Capital One say;

Getting something back

When you pay with a cash-back or rewards credit card, you get a little something back ? however big or small your purchase is. With a cash-back credit card, you issuer gives you a little back for every purchase you make, so with the right card, you could receive hundreds of pounds a year. To be clever with a cash-back card, you need to follow these two rules:

* Avoid withdrawing cash (when doing so you?ll always be charged a fee and interest)

* To avoid any interest charges outweighing any cash-back or rewards that you earn, always re-pay the full balance each month. The best way to ensure this is by setting up a monthly direct debit

Check out the rest of the credit made clearer videos here.

Bukisa is a way to ‘share your knowledge and earn money’ I joined a few days ago and can already see its potential. You basically write articles and post them to Bukisa (this is very simple, even easier than blogging on your own platform) and then you are paid for people viewing your work. You can also do slide shows, videos and more…

Bukisa also pays you a small cut for signing up friends and family, it’s in Beta at the moment and relatively unknown, and with all these new 2.0 internet things it really does ‘pay to be first’.

How much can I make?

I have done some very basic calculations based on my experience so far (the site pays in dollars, but I have converted it to pounds here);

5 articles on Bukisa – ?9-10 per month

20 articles on Bukisa – ?35-40 per month

50 articles on Bukisa – ?90 – ?100 per month

These are some basic calculations of what *I* expect to make from my articles alone, not including my cut from family and friends.

Further benefits to joining Bukisa

Meet new people
Promote your blog in your profile
Convert Bukisa readers into RSS subscribers
Read/watch great content
Get new ideas for blog posts (reading other people’s work always stimulates my own ideas)

Finally

If quite a few people decide to join we could form a community – friending each other and voting and stumbling each others articles.

This is one of the most promising ways I’ve found to make easy money since I started blogging, once you’ve written articles they stay on Bukisa and can continue to make passive income indefinitely. I don’t know about you but I have written hundreds of articles in the past that just need tweaking, updating and a brush up that can form the basis of a very profitable catalogue on Bukisa

If you decide to join, I’m Eccy100 on there, friend me and I will return the favour and start promoting your articles.
