Single Operated Newsletter – Are You a Knowledge Worker?

How does a knowledge worker differ from other types of workers?
Knowledge workers are said to think for a living, unlike manual laborers who are paid for performing physical tasks. Knowledge workers are differentiated from other workers by their ability to solve complex problems or to develop new products or services in their fields of expertise.

A knowledge worker is an employee whose primary contribution to the workplace is knowledge of a specific subject. Some examples of knowledge workers include physicians, academics, engineers and architects. Knowledge workers may be said to think for a living, rather than performing manual or interpersonal tasks.

Knowledge work is a broad term for any profession that produces unique knowledge. A profession that primarily involves producing unique knowledge such as decisions, analysis, problem solving, theory, strategy, planning, design, art and technology.

An information worker is akin to workers hired to manually go through and pick tomatoes. The crop by itself has value, but the value can be increased substantially when a knowledge worker combines a variety of resources along with their skills to produce something more valuable.

Curators as Knowledge Workers
Curators are in charge of a collection of exhibits in a museum or art gallery. Their job is to build up collections, often in specialist areas. Their work involves buying exhibits, organising exhibitions, arranging restoration of artefacts, identifying and recording items, organising loans and dealing with enquiries.

Why is a Single Operated Newsletter the new way to create financial freedom online?

1 – You can create a subscription base without becoming a social media influencer.

2 – You can control the platform something you can not do with YouTube, Facebook, and yes, even Instagram.

3 – You can get paid directly for the content provided to your readers. This eliminates the possibility of getting knocked off the big platforms.

Many people, often older, are still having trouble believing and accepting that a person of average intelligence can generate a salary on their own through a Single Operated Newsletter.

This is where PaidLetter comes in with their CENTS model.

What is the CENTS model?

Popularized by MJ DeMarco, writer of “The Millionaire Fastlane,” the C.E.N.T.S. approach to entrepreneurship means:

C – Control – to create the true financial freedom you must control the “product”.

E – Entry – or more properly put: “create a barrier to entry”. This is sometimes called a moat!

N – Need – You must create the content that your readers will eagerly pay to access.

T – Time – As Tim Ferriss so aptly described in The 4-Hour Workweek you must find a muse that will allow you to separate your time from your income.

S – Scale – Many physical product entrepreneurs are learning hard lessons about the complexity of importing, warehousing, and shipping. And the high costs associated with them.

Single Operated Newsletter DIY platforms
The current list of Single Operated Newsletter delivery platforms is small but growing each year. Although they give you a mechanism for sending the emails they don’t give you the insight and proven process to know what to send (like PaidLetter.Com does).
