Building an email list and understanding good email marketing. Consistent butt in chair at least 5 times a week and write. Practicing the fundamentals every day is the way to this kind of success.If you want this kind of success, based on this kind of business model – then copy what Steve is doing! (and when I say copy, I mean in the sense of modelling, not plagiarism!)

For April – June 2014, Steve reported $125,857.37 and he breaks down exactly what that consists of. Steve posts his income in public, part of a trend online as people openly share how their businesses work. The success he has had off the back of Habit Stacking was due to the years of ground work before that. Steve has become very visible in the last year, but he has been working on this since 2006. His views of what works in publishing has changed, and now focuses on the hard work over the long term and little things on a daily basis. Focusing on one business niche and genre, and specifically around building and nurturing an email list.

Lessons Steve has learned from his first internet businesses and affiliate marketing, which he started in 2006.
