How PayPerPost may have saved Indie Films

Fundraising and saving out-of-pocket money to make films can be daunting at times. That is one of the reasons why I signed up for PayPerPost. I read about the company on many blogs that ranged from Work at Home Opportunities to Random Lifetsyle views and activities. However, I never had interest in working with the company until the last two months. Some view blogging as a waste of time, especially if you do not get paid from it. While there are lots of advertising opportunities available, many bloggers actually do not make much money if they make anything at all.

That is where I decided to try out PayPerPost. While I enjoy writing on the Madlab Post, it doesn't bring in as much revenue as I would prefer. Still, I don't mind blogging here because my main focus is gaining exposure for my films and video projects as well as the movies made by other filmmakers. It would be nice to be able to make an income from the movies, but they have to be made first. That is where PayPerPost comes in. Since most of my income is used for all of the expenses that come with the cost of living in this busy and high priced society, there is barely enough left over to make more films. PayPerPost is where I get paid to blog

Working with PayPerPost has allowed me to do two things. First, it has provided some revenue for my blog, which makes it so that blogging isn't a waste of time, like many women and men tend to think. Secondly, it provides the opportunity to build up enough money to make more films and purchase or rent editing equipment, studios, props, wardrobe food for cast and crew members and more. Film Festival entry fees tend to make it difficult to apply and thats just the beginning. It is even more epensive to travel to these film festivals where fun movies are showing.

There are opportunities to make anywhere from $5 up to $200 or more for a blog post on specific topics. This is why I am glad that I decided to try PayPerPost. I have recently found that other members are friendly and willing to help each other out no matter if it's related to PayPerPost of blogging in general. This company has made blogging more enjoyable and it has even influenced me to work on improving this blog as much as I can. PayPerPost is a great company to work with and can definitely be a helpful tool for independent filmmaking and other arts related projects.
