⭐ HOW THE INCOME ENGINE WORKS

WHAT IN THE INTERNET WORLD DO I ACTUALLY DO? 😂

That’s really the question.

If you want the 20% → 15% → 10% → 5% → 5% commission mechanics, that’s How This Island Pays You.

If you want the calculator, the 7 → 49 → 343 examples and the giant whiteboard?

That’s Show Me The Money.

This page has one job:

WHAT DO I ACTUALLY DO WITH A WRITERS FREAK PARKING SPOT?

THE CONTENT GETS ATTENTION.

THE PARKING SPOT IS THE ADVERTISEMENT, THE MEDIA CONTAINER AND THE PRODUCT.

THE VIEW PROVES SOMEBODY LOOKED.

THE SALE CREATES THE AFFILIATE INCOME.

OTHER INDEPENDENT PEOPLE DOING THE SAME THING CREATE THE LEVERAGE.

That’s the Income Engine.


A Parking Spot is a $7 advertising product and media asset in one inside WritersFreak.com.

It can advertise an author, book, podcast, newsletter, writing service, publisher, editor, ghostwriter, course, tool, launch or other business around words — or it can simply publish something worth reading about writing, books, storytelling, publishing, AI, media or the business around them.

Sometimes the advertisement is the media. Sometimes the media is the advertisement. And sometimes it’s doing both at the same time.

  • An author can build one around a book.
  • A writer can publish an essay, opinion or story.
  • An editor or ghostwriter can explain what they do.
  • A publisher can feature an author or title.
  • A podcaster or audiobook creator can build one around something people can listen to.
  • A writing coach, designer, narrator, marketer or other service provider can explain their business.
  • Or somebody can simply talk about the writing world itself — great books, terrible books, publishing, AI, book deals, scripts, newsletters, journalism and whatever else around words is worth talking about.

FREAK SITES SOLD THE PARKING SPOT EITHER WAY.

The book, author, story, service, podcast, launch or idea is the content.


THE INTERNET ALREADY BUILT THE AUDIENCES.

  • Amazon already has people looking for books.
  • YouTube already has viewers.
  • Social media already has authors, readers, writers and publishing conversations.
  • Google already has people searching.

I just need to find the little piece where I have something worth adding.

Writers Freak has no shortage of material.

  • An author launches a new book.
  • A publisher makes a strange decision.
  • A book deal gets everybody talking.
  • AI does something new to the writing world.
  • A movie or television adaptation changes how people see the original story.
  • A writer finds a new way to reach readers.
  • An editor, ghostwriter, narrator or writing service has something useful to offer.
  • Somebody publishes something brilliant.
  • Somebody publishes something terrible. 😂

Or I see something and think:

“THERE’S A WRITERS FREAK STORY IN THAT.”

Great.

THERE’S MY SUBJECT.

I don’t have to create the entire conversation myself.

I can join one that’s already happening.


This one is especially obvious on Writers Freak.

Maybe I already know exactly what I want to say.

Maybe I need help researching something, organizing a messy idea, tightening a headline, editing a draft or figuring out what questions I should be asking.

AI can help research, organize information, clean up writing, create an illustration, turn written material into other kinds of content or help somebody get from a blank screen to something worth publishing.

Great. Use it.

But AI isn’t the business.

AI HELPS ME BUILD.
THE PARKING SPOT IS THE PRODUCT.

And when I’m writing about real authors, real books, real publishers, real deals or real people?

MAKE IT TRUE.


  • Maybe I’m writing about a book I just finished.
  • Maybe I’m an author trying to help people discover my own book.
  • Maybe I’m building a page around a podcast, audiobook, script or newsletter.
  • Maybe I’m an editor, ghostwriter, publisher or writing service trying to explain what I do.
  • Maybe I’m writing about whether AI is making writers better, worse or simply much faster. 😂

THE WRITING, STORY, BOOK, SERVICE OR IDEA IS THE CONTENT.

I spend seven bucks and build it.

Now I have something I control inside WritersFreak.com.

  • Its own URL.
  • Story.
  • Photos.
  • Supported embedded video.
  • Links.
  • Contact information.
  • Calls to action.
  • A public view counter.

Then I take it back to the places where the attention already exists.

THE PLATFORMS ARE WHERE I FIND THE ATTENTION.

THE PARKING SPOT IS WHERE I GIVE THE ATTENTION A JOB.

  • Read the story.
  • Discover the book.
  • Watch the video.
  • Listen to the podcast or audiobook.
  • Contact the author.
  • Contact the editor, publisher or service provider.
  • Visit the website.
  • Buy the book somewhere else.

Or simply see what somebody built.


Somebody sees the Parking Spot.

Good.

The public counter tells me the Parking Spot was viewed.

THE VIEW DID NOT CREATE AN AFFILIATE COMMISSION.

THE VIEW ONLY GAVE SOMEBODY A CHANCE TO SEE WHAT I BUILT.

  • Maybe they only wanted to read the story. Fine.
  • Maybe they wanted to discover the book. Fine.
  • Maybe they’re another writer interested in the subject. Fine.
  • Maybe they’re looking for an editor, ghostwriter, publisher or writing service. Fine.

But while they’re there, they can also see the product used to publish it.

“WOW, I COULD DO THAT.”

Yes.

Seven bucks.

They buy one through my qualifying affiliate relationship.

That’s where affiliate income can begin.


This is especially interesting on Writers Freak.

Writers spend a lot of time trying to explain what they created.

Editors, publishers, ghostwriters, coaches and other writing businesses spend a lot of time explaining what they can do for somebody.

I can show somebody an actual Parking Spot.

  • Here’s the page.
  • Here’s the story.
  • Here’s the book.
  • Here’s the video.
  • Here’s the service.
  • Here’s the contact information.
  • Here’s where I shared it.

Then I can ask:

WANT TO BUILD ONE OF YOUR OWN?

If not?

Fine.

If yes?

THE PRODUCT STARTS AT SEVEN BUCKS.


A social post can be useful.

Then tomorrow comes.

And another hundred posts land on top of it.

The Parking Spot is still there.

  • I can update it.
  • I can add something new.
  • I can send it to another reader, writer, publisher or customer.
  • I can distribute it again.

I can keep building around the same URL instead of starting from zero every morning.

That’s especially useful in a world where the work itself may have taken weeks, months or years to create.


Buying a Parking Spot does not automatically make somebody an affiliate.

  • Maybe an author buys one for a book and that’s all they ever want. Fine.
  • Maybe a writer keeps creating Parking Spots around essays, stories or projects. Great.
  • Maybe an editor, publisher or writing business keeps coming back with new things to promote. Great.

Maybe one of those customers eventually says:

“I COULD SELL THESE TOO.”

They can separately apply to the Writers Freak Affiliate Program.

If approved, they get their own affiliate relationship and can create customers of their own.

NOW I’M NOT THE ONLY PERSON BUILDING DISTRIBUTION.

  • I know my writers, readers, authors, publishers and businesses.
  • They know theirs.
  • I find my subjects and opportunities.
  • They find theirs.

I DON’T NEED THEM TO HAVE MY AUDIENCE.

I WANT THEM TO HAVE THEIRS.


  • Become an affiliate.
  • Find writers, authors, readers, publishers, editors, podcasts, writing businesses and opportunities.
  • Show people the product.
  • Create customers.
  • Earn the direct commission on eligible sales.

Nothing wrong with that.

But if every customer and every sale has to come through me forever?

I’M THE BOTTLENECK.


I’d apply to the Writers Freak Affiliate Program.

No Parking Spot purchase required.

But me personally?

I’D SPEND THE SEVEN BUCKS AND BUILD ONE.

  1. I’d build something around a book, author, story, podcast, writing business, publishing idea or something else around words worth seeing.
  2. Then I’d put it in front of people who might care.
  3. And I’d pay attention to the person who says:

“WOW, I COULD DO THAT.”

THE CONTENT GETS ATTENTION.

THE PARKING SPOT IS THE ADVERTISEMENT, THE MEDIA CONTAINER AND THE PRODUCT.

THE VIEW PROVES SOMEBODY LOOKED.

THE SALE CREATES THE AFFILIATE INCOME.

OTHER INDEPENDENT PEOPLE CREATING, DEMONSTRATING AND SELLING THE PRODUCT CREATE THE LEVERAGE.

Want the commission percentages and rules?

That’s How This Island Pays You.

Want the 7 → 49 → 343 math and the big whiteboard?

That’s Show Me The Money. 😂

BUILD IT.
SHOW IT.
SELL THE PRODUCT.
LET OTHER PEOPLE BUILD THEIRS.
