Step 2: A Realistic Roadmap to Earning 30,000 Yen in 3 Months

A Note Roadmap to Earning 30,000 Yen Per Month in 3 Months

There is a clear reason for the goal of "30,000 yen per month in 3 months."

Three months is the minimum period required to form new habits, and 30,000 yen is an amount that is not too unrealistic while still being enough to reliably change your life.

In this roadmap, I will share a concrete action plan for complete beginners to achieve this goal without strain, drawing on my own experience.

Overview: The General Flow of the 3 Months

• Month 1: Foundation Building Period

  • Goal: Earnings of 0 to 1,000 yen

  • Actions: Account design, publishing 10 free articles, and releasing your first paid article to build a foundation of trust.

• Month 2: Improvement and Growth Period

  • Goal: Earnings of 5,000 to 10,000 yen

  • Actions: Analyze reader reactions, find a template for articles that sell, and make course corrections while practicing pricing strategies.

• Month 3: A Period of Acceleration and Stability

  • Goal: Revenue of 20,000 to 30,000 yen

  • Action Items: Stabilize revenue by creating a system to increase repeat customers and introducing higher-priced products.

Month 1: Building the Foundation and Taking the First Step

During this first month, you will prepare to start on note and develop a writing habit.

Week 1: Preparation and Mindset

Take stock of your strengths and past failures, then select a genre. Afterward, analyze successful articles, create a profile and self-introduction article, and set up your account.

Week 2: Building Trust with Free Articles

Write your first three articles: a failure story, a helpful article, and an empathetic article. While checking reader reactions, write additional articles to reach a total of five published free articles.

Week 3: Habitualizing Writing

Aiming for "one article per day," write 1,000 to 1,500 characters daily. Without seeking perfection, develop the habit of publishing first. Aim to reach 10 free articles by the end of this week.

Week 4: Attempting Your First Paid Article

Deepen a theme that received a good response in your free articles and plan a paid article of 3,000 to 5,000 characters. Set the price at 300 to 500 yen and take the plunge to sell it.

Month 2: Improvement and Growth

Based on the results of the first month, create a strategy to increase revenue more efficiently.

Week 5: Data Analysis and Course Correction

Analyze the most-read articles from the first month to find patterns that sell. Use those patterns in new articles to confirm reproducibility.

Week 6: Experimenting with Pricing Strategy

Create articles at multiple price points (e.g., 500 yen, 980 yen) to test which price point gets the best response. Strengthen announcements on social media and learn about promotion.

Week 7: Systematizing Repeat Customer Acquisition

Deepen your relationship with readers by sending thank-you messages to purchasers or providing additional content. Also, prepare to turn popular themes into a series.

Week 8: Finalizing the Midpoint

Polish your previous articles and introduce mid-priced products. Organize and analyze sales data from the first two months to identify challenges for the third month.

Month 3: Acceleration and Goal Achievement

Boost your revenue all at once with high-ticket products and aim to reach your goal.

Week 9: Preparing High-Ticket Products

Plan a high-ticket product priced between 2,980 and 4,980 yen. Consolidate your knowledge so far and take on the challenge of creating a major work of over 15,000 characters, including bonuses.

Week 10: Promotion Intensification Week

Create an attractive sales page and strengthen the flow from social media and free articles. Focus on promotion and start selling your high-ticket product.

Week 11: The Final Sprint

Set up sequels to best-selling articles or create bundles. Improve articles that aren't selling to further increase revenue.

Week 12: Final Polish and Preparation for What's Next

Make a final push with end-of-month sales and aggregate/analyze all data from the three months. Achieve the 30,000 yen monthly goal and plan for the next stage.

Time Management and Mindset for Success

This roadmap can be followed comfortably with about 1.5 hours of work on weekdays and 3 hours on weekends.

The keys to success are the following seven points:

• Don't seek perfection: Publish even if it's 60% complete, and improve it later.

• Celebrate small successes: Rejoice in your first 'likes' or sales and turn them into motivation.

• Don't compare yourself to others: The only person you should compare yourself to is 'the you of yesterday'.

• Keep records: Track your writing time and earnings to analyze them objectively.

• Decide on rest days: Don't overdo it. Take one day off completely each week to refresh.

• Keep going: More than talent or skill, 'continuing to write without quitting' is the most important thing.

• Don't forget to have fun: Enjoy the process of writing and interacting with your readers.

This roadmap is by no means an easy path, but it is not an impossible goal either.

Three months from now, you will be earning 30,000 yen per month and will have gained the confidence that 'I could do it too'.

After that, earning 50,000 or 100,000 yen is not just a dream.
