Giveaways and Contests!

After a year of ignoring this blogging effort, I have decided to return. Why? A variety of reasons, none profound. (Not that you'd expect much profundity from a blog entitled, "Mirth of a Salesman.")

One thing that has gotten me "inspired" is a site called: I Love Giveaways!

It's a free contest site where you have access to zillions of contests and well, giveaways.

My wife enjoys entering and has won some neat stuff.

Also, blogging about a contest entry seems to enhance one's chances of winning, and so...

Later!

Mirth of a Salesman

I decided to rename this blog. In keeping with its new mission of selling stuff (I get referral fees when you buy things through the links. Actually, my wife gets them, but it's all the same. My bank accounts, her bank accounts, it doesn't matter.) I chose "Mirth of a Salesman," with the tagline: 'All I want to do is sell you things! And be a little funny or quirky while doing it. If you can smile or smirk or giggle even once after reading a post, hey, that's cool.'

It came to me last night in a dream. Most of the dream was some sort of geopolitical drama involving Chinese hegemony over Indonesia and Malaysia, and where "Mirth of a Salesman" actually fits in is rather murky.

Nonetheless, I woke up, thought about it and decided to change it in Blogger this afternoon. All the feeds should still work.

The old blog name "Trudging Paulcoholic's Road" will be used for some other project involving the original site for SoberCatholic.com (SoberCatholic used to be hosted on Blogger before I switched to a self-hosted service with the aid of a friend and WordPress.) "TPR" is more suited for recovery work.

Just an honest attempt...

...to sell things and earn a living online. I just felt like writing a brief post to further explain this blog's purpose.

There is a lot of money to be made online. That may seem like the mother of all obvious statements short of "water is wet" and "fire is hot." When I am writing a post about a particular topic or brand and such, I will try to be informative and entertaining.

Not sure how successful I'll be on the "entertaining" part, but at the very least you may be drawn into at least considering buying whatever it is I'm selling. 

I would like to reiterate that earning money online is risky for both the seller and buyer. Everything that is offered through here is just a bunch of honest products and services that you may or may not want or even need. But they should be useful and interesting and fill some vacuum. Perhaps you need a gift for someone else and you can't find it elsewhere. Perhaps it'll be here.

Anyway, buying stuff through this blog should be painless and easy. It is usually link to someone else's store and we get a referral fee or commission. Soon I will add Amazon and other online store widgets.

Well, please follow and subscribe to this blog, and buy stuff! Thank you!
