In This Episode This is the June 2018 monthly report. I catch you up on what I’ve been up to. Links * Audible (I’m listening to World War Z & Malazan book of the Fallen) * Austin Podcasters * Cashflow Diaries * Microcosm Publishing * Smart Passive Income * Toggle Time Tracker * Trello * Google Keep Show Credits Hosted, produced, mixed, edited & music by Mark. Blog Why Publish A Business Report? Publishing my business report allows me to reflect back on the month to see what I did or didn’t do so well. Lastly, I have read blog income reports such as SmartPassiveIncome and I like to see what they have tried. It is a form of motivation for me and I hope that this can be one for someone else. Be sure to check out CashFlowDiaries for bloggers that share their blog income reports. Or one that I’ve recently found from publisher Microcosm Publishing. June 2018 Business Report Disclaimer: Any income reported will only be reported as “cash” in hand. If it did not deposit into my account, or if I didn’t cash a check, then it does not count as income. Additionally, income will only be reported for ApexThis business and not for personal income. I may discuss side hustles for additional side income, but only income in which I represent ApexThis will be counted.  Income/Investment Report Investment – $0.00 Speaking – $100 Expense Report RawVoice (Blubrry) – ($12) Blubrry is a service I used to host the podcasts for Admins of Atlassian and ApexThis. It has built-in integration with WordPress making it vastly easier to upload and maintain the podcasts. Google Apps – ($10) I use Google Apps for email primary, docs and drive. It’s also great to use my Google account as authentication to other services and apps. Google Domain Renewals – ($12) Adobe Suite – ($54) Zero – ($9) Overall * Total Income/Investments – $100.00 * Total Expense – ($97) * Total Net – $3 Hours Worked Time Logged – 23hrs per month average the past 6 months.

From a personal perspective, after getting the last podcast episode out, I was working on the next monthly update, but then I went out of town for work. Then I went out of town for family, twice. Then I went on vacation and got really sick. After that, I was knee deep in a few projects and efforts that I will detail shortly. Lastly, came the unexpected trip to Amsterdam for the day job which unexpectedly turned into a vacation. I say unexpectedly as my intention was to continue my side-hustle schedule but considering I’ve never been out of the country before, the jet lag was particularly vicious, and being in a new country, my co-workers made sure my nights were busy. Weekends, I toured the city and countryside. I visited museums and lovely restaurants and next thing I know,
