First Payment: Sekelumit Pengalaman Kontributor Lepas TravelingYuk.com

Halo temans, apa kabar? Ada yang sedang menyiapkan rencana liburan akhir tahun? Iya deh tahu kalau dua bulan lagi sudah waktunya menyambut tahun baru. Tapi tunggu dulu, menyiapkan rencana memangnya sudah punya uang saku untuk traveling akhir tahun ini?

Tenang saya nggak nyinyir atau julid kok. Kali ini saya cuma ingin membuat blog post tentang sekelumit pengalaman first payment saya sejak bergabung sebagai kontributor TravelingYuk.com. Nah, ini salah satu situs web traveling yang pernah saya bahas dalam blog post "Mengumpulkan Modal Traveling: Jual Tulisan Perjalanan" beberapa waktu yang lalu.


Rasanya Tulisan Pertama di Approve Tim Redaksi TravelingYuk




Saat blog post mengenai menjual tulisan untuk modal traveling saya publish di blog ini, sejujurnya saya baru akan memulai jalan baru saya sebagai kontributor lepas di TravelingYuk. Sejujurnya sih saya sendiri kurang PeDe untuk mengirimkan tulisan, ya seperti yang kalian tahu kalau tulisan yang dibuat di blog ini pun konsepnya "curhatan". Tapi bukankah kita tidak akan tahu hasilnya kalau kita sendiri tidak mencobanya?

Berbekal kemampuan menulis artikel traveling yang sangat standar itu pula saya mengirimkan artikel pertama dari pengalaman jalan-jalan saya ke Dieng. Sangat bersyukur karena Allah mengizinkan Tim Redaksi untuk meng-approve artikel yang saya ajukan tersebut. Dari sanalah saya belajar bagaimana sistem penerimaan artikel dan waktu publish yang digunakan oleh TravelingYuk. Ya, karena meskipun sudah di approve, tulisan saya tidak lantas langsung di publish saat itu juga. Ada penjadwalan sesuai dengan kebutuhan redaksi. Meskipun begitu, tulisan saya diterima pun sudah sangat senang, bukan?

Kalau tidak salah artikel saya tersebut akhirnya publish pada bulan Mei 2018. Untuk tanggalnya saya sendiri kurang tahu, karena saya sendiri tidak rajin memeriksa status tulisan yang sudah saya ajukan (khususnya setelah di approve).

 

Penawaran Harga Tinggi Bukanlah Prioritas




Kalian tahu? Artikel pertama berjudul Deretan Destinasi Wisata Dieng, Pas Banget Buat Weekend Getaway, yang saya sebutkan di atas, bisa lolos dengan penawaran harga 25 ribu rupiah. Kenapa saya bersedia menerima tawaran harga dari tim redaksi? Karena saya sadar ada banyak kelemahan dari artikel saya tersebut. Misalnya, foto yang saya gunakan kualitasnya sangat standar hingga perlu diganti alternatif foto lain. Selain itu, penyampaian di dalam artikelnya juga kurang kuat. Banyak informasi yang tidak spesifik.

Tapi tulisan pertama saya yang diterima tersebut juga menjadi salah satu pembelajaran untuk terus memperbaiki kualitas tulisan saya. Meskipun sampai saat ini pun saya masih terus belajar. Bahkan masih tetap ada tulisan yang saya sendiri agak kurang sreg karena kualitasnya.

Contohnya seperti artikel Pantai Ngandong, Pesona Rahasia di Pesisir Gunung Kidul Jogja. Setelah membacanya kalian tentu sadar kalau informasi di dalamnya terasa 'lemah', bukan? Foto yang saya gunakan juga kurang menggugah, meskipun sebenarnya diambil menggunakan kamera pocket. Tidak heran bagi saya saat mendapati tim redaksi memberikan tawaran harga 20 ribu saja untuk artikel tersebut. Tetapi saya terima, karena tujuan utama saya adalah agar informasi yang ada di dalam tulisan saya tersampaikan ke khalayak yang menjadi pembaca setia TravelingYuk. Itu saja.

Jadi, bagi kalian yang sudah mencoba mengajukan tulisan ke TravelingYuk tapi menolak tawaran tim redaksi karena menurut kalian terlalu receh. Cobalah untuk menerimanya dan menganalisa kembali tulisan yang kalian ajukan. Pasti kalian akan bisa menemukan sisi mana saja dari tulisan kalian yang perlu mendapatkan perbaikan. Belajarlah dari kekurangan itu dan buatlah tulisan yang lebih baik. Kalau tulisan kalian bernilai lebih, tim redaksi juga tentunya akan  mempertimbangkan untuk menawarkan harga yang lebih tinggi. Betul? Anggap saja sembari belajar, berbagi informasi, dan bonusnya dapat uang tambahan. Se-simple itu!

 

First Payment dan Proses Penantiannya




Singkat curhatan, setelah mengirimkan tulisan pertama sekitar 4 bulan yang lalu saya terus mengirimkan beberapa tulisan lainnya. Saya bersyukur dari tulisan-tulisan tersebut saya berhasil mengumpulkan sejumlah 395 ribu rupiah. Jumlah yang mungkin tidak banyak menurut kalian. Tetapi bagi saya, dengan uang tersebut sudah bisa booking hotel 2-3 malam, beli tiket kereta PP untuk 1 tujuan, dapat tiket pesawat sekali jalan, atau memenuhi kebutuhan traveling lainnya.



First payment saya lakukan pada 14 September 2018, saat itu statusnya langsung berubah menjadi "diproses". Berapa waktu yang dibutuhkan sampai payment masuk ke rekening saya? Kurang lebih selama 14 hari. Menurut TravelingYuk sendiri prosesnya memang memakan waktu maksimal 14 hari. Tetapi, sebelum ditransfer, pihak finance TravelingYuk terlebih dahulu menghubungi saya untuk meminta scan dokumen NPWP. Ya, mereka membutuhkan NPWP tersebut untuk keperluan pemotongan pajak pembayaran kontributor lepas (atas payment yang ditarik). Jumlah uang yang saya terima setelah dipotong pajak bisa kalian lihat dalam foto di atas.

 

Nah, sampai disini dulu ya temans cerita tentang pengalaman saya menjadi kontributor lepas TravelingYuk. Lain kali saya sambung lagi kalau ada informasi terbaru. Jika dari kalian ada yang ingin bertanya terkait pengalaman saya ini, silahkan tanyakan melalui kolom komentar yang ada di bawah blog post ini. Saya akan usahakan untuk menjawab pertanyaan kalian sesuai dengan apa yang saya ketahui.

See you di blog post saya selanjutnya ^^

  18. Halo, kak
    Wah kalau itu sih, menurut pengalaman, nggak menentu. Tergantung kebutuhan tim redaksi. Ada yang super cepat (hitungan jam), beberapa hari setelah submit, atau bahkan mungkin 1 minggu atau lebih.

    Oh iya, sudah gabung ke grup telegram kontributor TravelingYuk?
    Untuk lebih jelasnya sih bisa ditanyakan langsung saja ke tim redaksinya yang kebetulan ada di grup tersebut.

  21. Hey, my name’s Eric and for just a second, imagine this…

    - Someone does a search and winds up at jalankuseru.com.

    - They hang out for a minute to check it out. “I’m interested… but… maybe…”

    - And then they hit the back button and check out the other search results instead.

    - Bottom line – you got an eyeball, but nothing else to show for it.

    - There they go.

    This isn’t really your fault – it happens a LOT – studies show 7 out of 10 visitors to any site disappear without leaving a trace.

    But you CAN fix that.

  23. Hey there, I just found your site, quick question…

    My name’s Eric, I found jalankuseru.com after doing a quick search – you showed up near the top of the rankings, so whatever you’re doing for SEO, looks like it’s working well.

    So here’s my question – what happens AFTER someone lands on your site? Anything?

    Research tells us at least 70% of the people who find your site, after a quick once-over, they disappear… forever.

    That means that all the work and effort you put into getting them to show up, goes down the tubes.

    Why would you want all that good work – and the great site you’ve built – go to waste?

    Because the odds are they’ll just skip over calling or even grabbing their phone, leaving you high and dry.

    But here’s a thought… what if you could make it super-simple for someone to raise their hand, say, “okay, let’s talk” without requiring them to even pull their cell phone from their pocket?

    You can – thanks to revolutionary new software that can literally make that first call happen NOW.

    Talk With Web Visitor is a software widget that sits on your site, ready and waiting to capture any visitor’s Name, Email address and Phone Number. It lets you know IMMEDIATELY – so that you can talk to that lead while they’re still there at your site.

    You know, strike when the iron’s hot!

    When targeting leads, you HAVE to act fast – the difference between contacting someone within 5 minutes versus 30 minutes later is huge – like 100 times better!

    That’s why you should check out our new SMS Text With Lead feature as well… once you’ve captured the phone number of the website visitor, you can automatically kick off a text message (SMS) conversation with them.

    Imagine how powerful this could be – even if they don’t take you up on your offer immediately, you can stay in touch with them using text messages to make new offers, provide links to great content, and build your credibility.

    Just this alone could be a game changer to make your website even more effective.

    Strike when the iron’s hot!

  24. Cool website!

    My name’s Eric, and I just found your site - jalankuseru.com - while surfing the net. You showed up at the top of the search results, so I checked you out. Looks like what you’re doing is pretty cool.

    But if you don’t mind me asking – after someone like me stumbles across jalankuseru.com, what usually happens?

    Is your site generating leads for your business?

    I’m guessing some, but I also bet you’d like more… studies show that 7 out 10 who land on a site wind up leaving without a trace.

    Not good.

    Here’s a thought – what if there was an easy way for every visitor to “raise their hand” to get a phone call from you INSTANTLY… the second they hit your site and said, “call me now.”

    You can –

  26. Hi, Eric here with a quick thought about your website jalankuseru.com...

    I’m on the internet a lot and I look at a lot of business websites.

    Like yours, many of them have great content.

    But all too often, they come up short when it comes to engaging and connecting with anyone who visits.

    I get it – it’s hard. Studies show 7 out of 10 people who land on a site, abandon it in moments without leaving even a trace. You got the eyeball, but nothing else.

    Here’s a solution for you…

    Talk With Web Visitor is a software widget that’s works on your site, ready to capture any visitor’s Name, Email address and Phone Number. You’ll know immediately they’re interested and you can call them directly to talk with them literally while they’re still on the web looking at your site.

    CLICK HERE http://www.talkwithwebvisitor.com to try out a Live Demo with Talk With Web Visitor now to see exactly how it works.

    It could be huge for your business – and because you’ve got that phone number, with our new SMS Text With Lead feature, you can automatically start a text (SMS) conversation – immediately… and contacting someone in that 5 minute window is 100 times more powerful than reaching out 30 minutes or more later.

    Plus, with text messaging you can follow up later with new offers, content links, even just follow up notes to keep the conversation going.

    Everything I’ve just described is extremely simple to implement, cost-effective, and profitable.
