Make me money

Arachne reads who you are first, finds three ways for you to sell, builds the one you pick into a page on The Line, and helps you reach your first buyers.

Start with you

Make me money looks for what sells for you, not for anyone. She can get you live; buyers and earnings are never promised.

  1. On her Board, tap Start on the Make me money card, or open Arachne at Work under Your work in Tools.
  2. Answer her Quick question: I already sell something or Starting from nothing.
  3. Starting from nothing, she asks One more thing: what you're especially good at or into. It is optional: tap Continue to tell her, or Skip, just start.

The card reads First, you. It shows What I know about you, read from your Mind when it is on, and what she is Assuming: where you are, your languages, your budget and your hours a week. Tap any of them to change it, and she looks again.

How she finds it

She reads you first, then draws lanes made for you alone, reads what each lane needs, and chooses three ideas. Her card walks the steps as they happen: Reading you, Your lanes, Lane 1 and on, then The three ideas. It takes a short while, and you can leave while she works.

To stop, tap Stop. She asks Stop looking? and keeps what she found so far; Go on carries on from there.

You can also ask in her box, in your own words. She records a few lanes for you first and builds only after you pick one or tell her to go.

Your three ideas

  • Read from you comes first: You can offer, What matters to you and Where and when.
  • Then three ideas, the first marked Best match. Each shows its Price beside what others charge, its Demand, Your part and Getting paid, with prices in your currency.
  • Why this shows her reasons, her sources and The risk.
  • Your other lanes lists the lanes she didn't use. Tap one for the three strongest ways to sell that.
  • More ideas looks again and keeps what she read from you.

If nothing strong turns up, she says Nothing strong yet. Tap one thing you're good at, such as Writing or Design, and she looks again.

Already selling something

Tap I already sell something and tell her in one line what it is and its price. She reads your words and shops that sell the same, then shows Your product with its price beside similar ones, its Buyers and Your part. Change adds a price or a detail. Tap Build it when it looks right.
