My Business Model: A Baker That Doesn�t Sell Her Cakes

magnifying glass

this is when i go into my long-winded explanation what i do

after i decided to take chelsweets full-time

clearly it�s important to make your blog seo friendly. from picking the right keyword

but it�s to make any real money through adsense

luckily there are companies that offer full-service ad management

you have to apply to be a part of these networks

affiliate links

affiliate are another way i make money. i�m a part of the amazon affiliate program

corporate events / live demos

it�s also fun to teach a lot of people at once! while it�s a lot of work to prep and clean up after big events

money adds up the more videos you share. once you have a solid library of videos

these are great if it�s a brand/company/product you actually like and care ! this isn�t always the case though. sometimes you have to say no to partnerships that aren�t aligned

agents aren�t free though! they usually take a percentage of all incoming partnerships

in my last job

i feel very comfortable reviewing and negotiating my own deals because of this experience. i also don�t want to give a cut of my money to an agent

lot people think the era of blogging is dead. i�ll admit

i would guess most would answer �by searching online�. these days

i never thought i�d say this

i started blogging years ago

i love blogging

it isn�t like relying on brands to come to me

different traffic sources

my blog traffic comes from three main sources

the remaining of my views come organically from search

turning views into $

i�m

i also get the chance to demonstrate different techniques that people want to learn

teaching private lessons is another revenue stream that i have control over. i pick how many lessons i teach a month

if a month is slower and i don�t have any partnerships going on

if i�m traveling a lot

i also teach larger groups at the institute of culinary education every couple months

i usually do one corporate event a month

you monetize a youtube channel once you have 1

while you never know how a video will perform

paid partnerships

to keep myself sane

partnership i did

while you try to reach out to brands you�d like to work with

lot of times there simply isn�t budget allocated

i am still independent at this point

digital content contributor

my final source of revenue comes from creating content

that�s it folks

consistent. i�m constantly on my toes

things feel like they�re constantly influx

if you have any questions i didn�t cover
