Oh man, if every business owner settled on what they made in the first month capitalism likely wouldn't even exist.

"Now unless you get more visibility"

What online business doesn't aim to grow going forward? I certainly wouldn't rely on the first month results for the rest of my life.

I have too weird an accent to get incredible podcast downloads, but the $1,000 goes to a reader of my site, not me.

Appreciate the feedback :)

I actually am very interested to know if SpokenGrowth grows. I think it's a great idea. Will it become successful depends on a very specific combination of skill set and determination and persistence and having the financial means to persist.[edit] Saying "if I can do it anybody can" is not actually fair since even though you used a pen name you did bring your considerable marketing experience to promoting the idea and site.

But you see there lies the big dilemma. Great ideas are dime a dozen. The question is how big is the market for the idea and how do you reach that market and finally how do you monetize that market that results in a decent ROI. It doesn't have to be mind blowing ROI but something that generates passive income is good too.
