It& #39;s good to know that anything you& #39;re good at can be monetized. From talking to saying jokes and all that. What matters is a touch of creativity. I& #39;m still thinking of how to monetize sleep but here& #39;s a thread on how I monetized writing love messages.
It should help.
It should help.
I loved writing poems and flowery messages for people. When my seniors were graduating from secondary school, I wrote special notes for the ones who were nice to me. I even went as far as gathering wedding invitation cards that people sent to my parents.
I would glue the special written notes on the inside. I liked that I could write to get people emotional. After secondary school, I just left it at writing epistles on birthdays. One day when I was in 100 level, my bunk mate who was in her finals brought her friend to the room.
She introduced us so that I would write a birthday post for her friend& #39;s boyfriend’s birthday. Wait, what? I didn& #39;t even know this person. Anyway she told me a couple of things she liked about him and I composed the post, I was nervous that she wouldn’t like it given that
she was an English and Literature student, I felt unworthy. But she liked it and thanked me so much. That was practically my first writing gig. Got paid with exposure of course.
Subsequently, friends would call me to please help them rally birthday posts for their friends...

or partners or family members. And I would I enjoyed writing for them because of the joy that I saw it gave. But I never got the slightest credit. I kept writing and writing because it’s difficult to turn friends down, besides I was enjoying this. Then whataspp status feature...
came up, writing doubled up. I remember how I wrote my hands off for friends on valentines. I’d ask them what they loved about their val and voila! I’d write them the perfect lovey dovey message. Once again my service would be rewarded with 200 shekels of exposure.
But last year, I thought, dammit. I better monetize this thing before I die of hunger and love messages. I thought for about six months and had no clear idea how to… finally came up with @tweenotes this January.
At tweenotes, you give us details about this person who is special to you (family, friend, spouse, colleague) for whatever occasion and we create a unique, beautifully written note for them on framed canvas. This sample is a note to self.
We’d send it to you or them, whichever you want, easy peasy. Best part, it’s affordable, N2500 a piece. Follow us @tweenotes here and on IG for more info. I hope this helped. May we never run out of ideas.
