How I Created New Revenue Streams To Increase Earnings

Hello again! Remind us who you are and what business you started.

My name is Thomas Oppong, I am the founder of Content Intelligence media, trading as AllTopStartups (startup resource blog). I am also the curator at Postanly Weekly (resources for learning better, working smarter, and tools for life).

My main income is from blog sponsorships and ads. Other sources include Medium partner earnings, course sales, book sales, Amazon Affiliates, and paid newsletters.

I started as a blogger but over the years, income diversification has worked really well for me. No single source of income is guaranteed, so I keep an open mind and do more of what’s working. Writing online has attracted a lot of opportunities for my business (book deals and income opportunities).

Monthly income has dropped because my earnings on Medium have since for the past three months. So monthly earning is at $8K at the moment, mostly from the small business blog (Alltopstartups.com). I made almost $15K a month for a year since my last feature until three months ago. I’ve had to double up on what’s working to maintain momentum.
