Your dashboard already knows what you should do next. Here's how to read it. π
Your earnings π·
Available β earned, cleared, going out on the next Friday run
βHeld in reserve β with a countdown showing the exact release date β³
βPaid out β already sent
βBonuses β earned and pending, including any referral waiting on your click π
Nothing is a mystery here. If money is held, the dashboard says why and when it clears β in plain language, with an appeal button on the thing itself.
Your sales π
Every transaction: what sold, for how much, when, and to whom.
Read for patterns, not totals:
π Which listings sell repeatedly β make more of those
π· Which price points work β usually higher than you assumed
π
Which days and times β post when your people are actually about
π One-off vs recurring split β recurring is what makes income predictable
π Views without sales β that's a description or pricing problem, not a content problem
Your supporters π
Who's buying, who's recurring, who's cancelled.
β οΈ Watch cancellations. One is nothing. A cluster means something changed β usually the content got thinner without you noticing.
β οΈ Watch failed recurring payments. Almost always a replaced card. A message fixes it in a minute; ignoring it loses the supporter.
Your posting window π
3 approved posts every 28 days keeps recurring features running. Your dashboard shows where you are in the current window.
β° Approved, not uploaded. Reviews run 11amβ6pm GMT daily. Post with days to spare, not hours.
Your account status π‘οΈ
π Reserve percentage and release countdown
π Anything needing attention, with the reason and an appeal button
π Bonus status β including anything pending because a payout account isn't connected
The four numbers that matter π―
Ignore everything else until these are healthy.
1. Recurring income π
The number that lets you plan. Growing it beats growing anything else on this list.
2. Average sale value π·
Total earnings Γ· number of sales. Low usually means you're underpricing β not that people won't spend.
3. Dispute rate β οΈ
The number that decides your reserve, your risk classification, and ultimately your ability to trade here. Keep it near zero.
4. Posting consistency π
The input behind all three above.
Using it properly π‘
β
Look weekly, not daily. Daily numbers are noise and they'll do your head in.
β
Compare month to month, not day to day
β
Test one thing at a time β the price or the description, not both
β
