Hi. This is my first blog post on this revamped website. And this is my 1st post about my latest challenge: to earn $12k/month in 12 weeks!
Why This Challenge?
In 2014, I challenged myself to make $45/day in 45 days with just 1 website, and it worked! On average, it made $100 per day for 4 years – while only working 2 hours per week to maintain it!
I was able to do some travel because of it. 🙂






Now I’m a family man, and I have a lot to accomplish – building a house, plans to migrate, education, buying insurance, paying for the cost of living, and a whole lot more!

I believe I can make it! And I’m making it public to make myself accountable.
I am committing to write here about everything I do to make $12k/month within 12 weeks!
How Will I Achieve This?
A decade ago, the formula was affiliate SEO (affiliate marketing with SEO as the traffic source). I wrote product reviews on my website and ranked them on Google. Simple! But I now find it too competitive and the ROI is taking tooooo long!
The Formula
Now the formula is rank-and-rent, Here, you build your own website, rank it on Google, and then rent it out to a business owner. It generally looks like this:
- Build a website for a home service niche in a city (example: roofing in Chicago)
- Rank that website in Google for its keywords (example: “roofing Chicago”)
- Send the callers (aka leads ) to the contractors concerned (example: roofers)
- Contractor pays you for sending legit calls to them
The Stats
I’ve already been doing some form of this model full-time since 2021. (I sold all my affiliate websites in 2022.) So far, my stats are:
- Average close ratio: 50% (I’ve had 6 closing calls in 2023 so far. I sold 3 of them.)
- My average pricing: $1500/month (The average pricing for the closed 3 clients above.)
Therefore, to make $12k, I need:
- At least 8 new clients
- At least 1.5 closing calls per week (let’s make it 2 closing calls per week)
- To get to 2 closing calls, I need to build 4 websites per week (this is just a guess) and run ads to it
What’s Been Done So Far
At this moment, I already have these so far:
- Call, voicemail, and SMS routing systems – I’ve had this setup since 2014 lol
- Google Ads accounts
- Billing system
- AI writer that can produce the content I want in 5 minutes
- All the software, accounts, and infrastructure I need to make this work
Things To Focus On (In Order of Priority)
- Get on 2 closing calls with business owners per week
- Prospecting calls
- Build at least 4 websites per week
- Run ads to them
Daily Schedule
Starting on July 3, this is how my daily (Mon-Fri) schedule will be.

10 AM | Meditate; Fetch kid from school |
11 AM | Meal #1; Take supplements |
12 PM | Fulfillment work for present clients (2 hours) |

I am targeting US cities that don’t get a lot of snow year round.
The reason why I’m doing this now is because it’s Daylight Savings Time in the US – which means I’m only 12 hours ahead of the US East Cost. In November, they will switch to Eastern Standard Time, which is 13 hours behind. I don’t want to be sleeping too late because that’s bad for my health.
Projected Expenses
Since I’ll be targeting 48 cities in a span of 12 weeks, I’m estimating to spend $200 for each of them, which is $9,600 in total.
My Prize
To keep myself motivated, if by the end of 12 weeks (which is September 22) I already have rank-and-rent clients worth $12k/month, I’ll buy myself one of these keyboards (in order of preference):
1. Kawai ES920
2. Roland FP-90X
3. Roland FP-E50
4. Yamaha DGX-670
This is all for now. Thanks for reading! 🙂
