The $30,000/Month Women’s Fitness Website

Notes from Chris

Episode 1718

Tami Smith spent seven years working as the office administrator for a physical therapy company. Around half that time was spent working from home, which was a great perk. But even the time saved from commuting wasn’t enough for her to achieve true work life satisfaction. This became clear after the birth of her second child in late 2018.

Tami soon realized that to keep her full time job, she’d have to put both her kids into daycare full-time. It was that, or figure out a way to make money at home while also being a full-time mom.

Around the same time, Tami started writing for a women’s fitness site. The client soon became Tami’s favorite, since she loved the topic and found the writing flowed effortlessly. That’s when an idea came along that gave her a run for her money.

Tami had been writing articles for the site, and earning a one-off fee. They’d take those articles, and continue to make affiliate commissions month after month. She realized she could build her own site, and produce her own content and probably earn a lot more. So without hesitation, on November 2019 she registered the domain FitHealthyMomma.com to do just that.

Tami didn’t take things too seriously in the beginning, posting a few articles over the next few months. However, in April 2020 she really started to sprint. The COVID-19 pandemic hit and a lot of her clients could no longer afford her. With writing skills and a lot of time on her hands, it was time to get to work.

And it worked, her first commission came through … for five dollars. Small, yet meaningful. Tami was ecstatic, and hooked on the concept of using her own blog for affiliate marketing.

She also started a YouTube channel and began cross posting all of her content there in video form. All this output took the site from humble beginnings and five dollar commissions, to over one hundred thousand visits per month and thirty thousand dollars in revenue today. Quite the transformation in one year’s time.

Not surprisingly, Tami wants to focus on growing Fit Healthy Momma even more. She’s since created a private Facebook Group and worked to build a community of like minded people who value her reviews and opinion. Down the line, she may introduce a course or program to help others achieve what she has: one word, one article and one affiliate commission at a time.
