As you might guess from some of the hints on the side of the page (The link to purchase my e-book, Cash Crate, Inbox Dollars, and numerous advertisements) that I'm trying to make a little bit of money right now. I'm working hard to save for college. Every penny counts. I've been working, attempting to sell what I can, and do whatever I can to make money for college. I've thought about selling body wraps, handicrafts I make (which I sometimes do here on my Etsy), selling Avon or some other beauty product. I've actually wanted to sell Avon for a long time and will share the information with you when I do start. But for now, I have something else I wanted to share with you.
I've started a store!!!!!! Today I came across a place where I could create a free online boutique and personally pick the jewelry and accessories that I want to sell in it. It's called Kitsy Lane, and it's a place where I can personalize a page and sell really unique jewelry pieces and earn up to 25%-35% on my sales. Though, at the beginning I assume I won't earn near that much. You don't have to buy anything, but if you want to take a look you can visit my store here: Keely's Kitsy Lane Shop.
(And my gosh, I promise it's NOT a pyramid scheme. It's just something that you can do in order to support me when you make purchases on the items you might want).
The items here range in price. Some are on the more expensive side of things, but others are well within range if you want something high quality for a special occasion at a reasonable price. And remember, if you've read any of my past blogs, you'll know that I'm a real person and not a salesman. As advertisement-y and promotional-y as it sounds I promise I didn't copy and paste these words from a promotional letter. If you're beginning to think it sounds like one - I guess I'm just a really good writer. Because, I assure you, THIS IS A REAL THING.
I don't expect to make a lot of money doing this at all, but again, every penny counts. This is my education we're talking here. Everything helps! If you can't buy anything - which I totally understand - just share the shop with people you know. A lot of people haven't heard about Kitsy Lane yet, and what better opportunity to browse what they have to offer than doing so and helping me in the process?!?!?! Win = Win!
They are also reputable to the best of my knowledge, I might add. There are lots of positive reviews out there and sources that helped me determine that they were not a scam. You can also go to the site and play a social media game, so I hear!
If you would like to know about other ways you can support the effort to fund my education (and in many cases actually make a little bit of spending money yourself) you can become my referral on Cash Crate or Inbox Dollars. (It doesn't even have to be "or." You could always do both : ] ) Neither of these things are scams and I have made money using both websites.
I do work on the websites more casually sometimes, more intensely others. The money you can make varies, and you need to make at least $20 (Cash Crate) or $30 (Inbox Dollars) to get your check. The premise of the websites is to fill out offers and surveys that pay you small amounts of money each time.
(Tip: if you're ever doing offers please set up another email address for them. You also should get a Google voice phone number that you can give on offers so that they can remain separate and controlled from your personal phone calls. This keeps your privacy a priority, allows you control over what calls you receive, and makes it easier for you to sort what you're doing on the website.
Other than that, there's absolutely nothing to fear. Just make sure you're educated about everything you're doing, learn the value of "skip" buttons on surveys and make sure that you read the fine print on offers. You don't have to pay them any money on either site unless you choose to do an effort that costs money. Those have bigger payouts, and I've only done them a couple of times. Despite not taking part in those, I've still made decent money for someone that started out as a kid who just wanted to make a little money during the summer).
You CAN make money on the sites, and it's actually a really good thing - but you'd have to work reallllllyyyyy hard to make half a living at it. I've heard of some people who do that, like a single mom who's always blogging on their website. But, that requires a lot of effort that I can't always put into it. You really can't get rich doing Cash Crate or Inbox Dollars. BUT you can make some extra spending money, which helps at times. I've actually made a couple hundred through Cash Crate since I started around 2012. If you join as an active referral through any of the sites, you will be helping me get money for college and helping yourself get some extra spending money! Again, when saving for college, everything counts.

Anyway, I hope that this post was helpful and informative. If you have any questions, please let me know. And remember to visit my Kitsy Lane Shop, Keely Victoria! I do sales every Wednesday night! Later lovelies.
