Creative Online Business Ideas for CNN Employees

Whether you work (worked) at CNN or some other major broadcast company pay attention because this is going to get you paid.

I know some of you are thinking “why would you write this?” Afterall anyone coming out of the top news organization in the world should be set right? Wrong. Maybe (and I do mean maybe) if you are an on air personality yes. But little do most of us know there is what I call the iceberg structure.

I introduced the iceberg model in 2000 while working at the Universal Music Group. The model is used both for media as well as music. Here is how it works:

  • At the top you have the on air personalities
  • Reporters on location
  • Local on air reporters
  • Special investigation reporters
  • Production staff for the shows (producer, camera crews etc.)
  • Writers and background story journalist
  • The business department that covers the sales, online, on air and offline off air.
  • Support staff

Here is the problem…and only those on the inside know it. Because of the demand to work there or at any other major media most are underpaid. The thinking is of course they can be replaced. And they are right. There are roughly 35 qualified people according to one of my news sources who works for CNN for every 1 position. And this goes for the entire mass media in the USA.

So…………..wanna make a little extra money from good old daddy Darren? (laughing)

Here are some simple no brainer online business ideas all should be able to make side money with legally. And again this for both CNN and the entire media.

Solution:  Did you know there is a hundred million dollar industry in teaching people about what you do? Ask the colleges. And NO I don’t mean teach at a college though that wouldn’t be a bad idea. I am saying start creating premium inside content. And you don’t have to write ebooks. I know for some that could take time and be consuming.

Here is the better way. Write reports (10-20 pages) that reveal the INSIDE game to your industry. Create audio podcast series of sale doing the same. Make videos (not those super high quality ones) but the type that has a recorded voice and power point presentation. You could sell either all 3 separately or a combination of all.

Writers, production people and yes on air personalities all of you can could do this. Where do you start? At the beginning from your market research to your website launch. And guess what you have little competition given my last sentence. That’s because most do not know how to start. And almost virtually ALL will not follow through. Why? Because many Americans are lazy. That’s the plain truth. We want the simple answer and thus many take the easy roads.

That can be your advantage…your EDGE. The HOW comes with research and action.

First I owe you an apology. NPC $1 Trial does not end only those $1000 bonuses are gone. That’s was totally my fault please forgive the mis-communication.

What Real Marketers Do AFTER The Product Launch

Recently you have heard a LOT about Niche Profit Classroom 3.0 launch or relaunch from 2.0. The reason was because I don’t just refer it but actually do it. NPC 2.0 (old version) made me thousands. Now 3.0 is going to make me and others a lot more.

“But Darren isn’t the Product Launch Over?”

Isn’t it interesting how people disappear when the launch period ends? Seriously you will not hear about Niche Profit Classroom from some JVs until next year. This not to disrespect them or call them phonies. There are several really good people who recommended NPC.  But the major difference is:

1. They don’t actually do it and aren’t members of NPCs underground society

2. They are only promoting this to you for an initial time and because of reason #1 they cant talk in depth about NPC.

You can tell the difference between a JV or affiliate marketing campaign and someone who actually does it by the following:

  • Mediocre affiliate marketers and JVs call themselves affiliate marketers and JVs while AMAZINGLY real marketers call them selves by their first name and never use the A or J word.
  • Mediocre affiliate marketers and JVs promote a product or program while AMAZINGLY real marketers take ownership of it and can break it down piece by piece.
  • Mediocre affiliate marketers and JVs END their promotions at a certain time then move on to the next new hot shiny thing. While AMAZINGLY real marketers will talk about it all year long and in detail. i.e. video preview, interviews, personal stories, and testimonials etc. I mean if it was great 2 weeks ago and the hottest thing out why are you selling something else with the same dialogue?
  • Mediocre affiliate marketers and JVs give you every reason to BUY. While AMAZINGLY real marketers give you every reason to followup after you purchase because we WANT to see you successful.

Lastly Mediocre affiliate marketers and JVs tell you a deal is ending at a certain time. While AMAZINGLY real marketers apologize (like I did earlier) if we got it mixed up (laughing). << OK I had to insert that one for me.

  1. There are LESS than 40 bonuses left ($1000 bonus) and ends TODAY.
  2. The $1 Trial ends TODAY July 6th (tomorrow) 2010
  3. My mentoring for NPC offer is closing to the public this Friday July 9th 2010 for a while to train the current members. AND BOY are YOU GOING TO BE EXCITED when you join.

The Gilded Golden Secret of an Online Business

Well unless you been on the moon (or just not on this site laughing) you know that Niche Profit Classroom has launched.

I know your thinking “whoppdy doo Darren so what does that have to do with your title?” Simple answer is that in my life I have learned that some of the most powerful and helpful people present themselves in a small and humble manner. They don’t show flash in fact they really avoid it.

Remember I have worked in a flash industry for 15+ years (entertainment music, movies. radio). The people who are real movers and shakers in these industries are the ones who don’t flash. What I am saying here is that “part” of  the Gilded Golden Secret is that

“Being Profitable in your online business is more important than being Popular”

Some of you are killing yourselves online. Many are blogging yourselves to death. And the truth is right under your nose. Here it is. Readers are great but customers are greater (duh Darren I knew that). But lets get into those details.

IF you know this or not then why do most of us (yes I was guilty as well) FOCUS on new business over current customers? We think that you have to repeatedly find new business and leave the current business hanging. NOT TRUE. This is a important key because a customer is not a one time purchaser but a longtime purchaser.

“Profitable online business stay in business by becoming Popular to Purchasers”

In other words when your your priority focus is on the people you do business with then your profits soar. And that does NOT require you to be “popular” to the general public. Especially online. You have to become known to the specific public (targeted traffic) online.

Then as time passes you earn the status of popular with your clients and customers. The Gilded Golden Secret of an Online Business is that you focus on profits and be a know star with your targeted traffic readers. And be a ROCK STAR with your clients and customers.

7 MORE Reasons to Shut up and Sell

Well in case you didn’t see the first version of this article then go here. The
OK here are 7 MORE Reasons (laughing).

  1. Talking of Selling doesn’t sell – so “stop bitching and get to work”  Bob Proctor of all people said that in Six Minutes to Success. I loved it and had to share. He wasn’t kidding. So many people are wining about their problems and not addressing their focus on solutions. I am telling this to my Niche Profit Classroom mentoring group now. Talk is cheap get to moving! Let me tell you something the people that last online are the ones that follow this formula. MINDSET+FOCUS+KNOWLEDGE+INSTRUCTION+ACTION+ASSESSMENT+REPETITION= MASSIVE SUCCESS….PERIOD.
  2. Your in a GOLDEN ERA that wont be here forever.Now more than any time in the history of the world you have a massive wealth of resources. Especially if your in America! Americans really have no excuse but to game up their business because everyone is always trying to come here. What does that tell you about opportunity? And with the internet era just multiply what I just wrote by 1 million. End the talk SHUT UP and SELL.
  3. Money is No Longer an Excuse to Not Produce: in the past 10 years since the turn of the century do you realize what has happened? OPEN SOURCE BABY!!! This very site is making money from resources that cost one thousands of a fraction that what it cost in 2000. FREE Content management system FREE plugins and apps and scripts. Less than $30 bucks to start a website the right way. Now thats $30 as in $10 a year for domain registration and $20 a month for hosting as many sites as you want. So for $30 bucks you can reach billions! your broke? WHY??
  4. If someone doesn’t do business with you be nice and move on. I have seen a lot of people return to do business with me because I am nice but VERY REAL. No matter how much you try to help people they (some) are on a path to destruction. However on the bright side if your nice and communicative you will be surprised how much business they might bring to you. Don’t beat a dead horse. Just put it out to pasture and see if it appreciates you later or moves on.
  5. To HELL with internet marketing focus on where internet marketing is NOT. If you learned karate would you rather fight someone who KNOWS karate OR would you use it on people who didn’t know the art? HEY this is business FUCK FAIR. I am not saying be dishonest. I am saying leverage your skills in an ethical way. Having  greater skills and the better mousetrap isn’t wrong or taking advantage of people. Give me ignorance over intelligence when it comes to my competitors anytime. STOP trying to do what everyone else is doing and SHUT UP and SELL (laughing but serious but still laughing). Sell by focusing on problems unrelated to the internet marketing world. hey what about the REAL world?
  6. The One who solves the problem BEST not first wins! Just because your first doesn’t mean JACK. Google, Microsoft, Apple, WalMart, and Facebook were NOT first in their respective niche industries. But they are the BEST. Solve or resolve a problem and you will sell. No talk just DO IT.
  7. Time is Running OUT: As I said in the Golden Era reason this the BEST time to sell online. But tomorrow is promised to no one. Also the window of opportunity is going to change and do a paradigm shift.

So what are you going to do? Keep on doing what your doing or get your assets up and solve to sell? Or are you going to fade out like most online businesses do because you found out it takes work and you can’t do it your fantasy way?

Online Business Ideas for Avoiding 5 Figure Mistakes

Notice how everyone in the world tries to tell you how “smart” they are when it comes to marketing online? Well only the REAL people are going to reveal how smart they are NOT. So enters good ole Darren (laughing). I am glad I can honestly laugh about this now. Many of you may have heard my long version of this story. The truth everyone is that successful people learn more from their mistakes than anyone else.

That’s simply because we FAIL the most. See successful people don’t succeed the most. They FAIL the most. And despite that failure they just kept going. Think about it like this. Babe Ruth failed the MOST. YES he hit over 700 home runs but also stuck out almost twice as much.

The idea is that in order to be successful you must discover what doesn’t work quickly and then move on. It is called Fail Fast Forward. You take massive action and then massive detailed assessment of your results. And if it didn’t work you move forward. But you NEVER give up!

OK I avoided my mistake long enough (laughing).

Short version is I built popular sites that showed little returns. Some of my sites had hundreds of thousands of visitors every month. Yet little sale conversions. So a few years back I started a little site and discovered by accident what I was doing wrong. As I say in my profits vs popularity article “the profitable stay small and don’t worry about being popular.”

Do’h

The little site was making more money with way less traffic. Why? because people wanted the items I was selling of course but it is much deeper than that.

Another  problem I had was I couldn’t figure out exactly “how” to repeat my little sites success. I more than understand that online it isn’t about doing 5000 things one time but doing 5 things 1000 times. In fact I coined that phrase. But I wasn’t sure exactly “what” to repeat 1000 times.

Oh and quick note as I explain in Why Niche Markets NEVER Show Their Sites I wont tell you what the little site was because it would increase added competition. I am still making money with from that site.

So one day a business partner and another blogger introduced me to Niche Profit Classroom. What Adam the creator at NPC confirmed for me was how to develop a method to repeat my first little sites accidental success.

So hear is what I learned from all of the money I lost in previous years. Not to mention the time and work.

Online Business Ideas for Avoiding 5 Figure Mistakes

  • To Hell with popular bring on the profits: Your readers are nice and great people. But in order to be in business you need customers.
  • KNOW if you you are going to make money BEFORE you set the site up: 98% of my sites make money and through research I knew they would. In niche marketing 70-80% involves research.
  • Shut up and Sell: as I say in 7 Reasons to Shut up and Sell you didn’t come this far to get your butt kicked did you?  Don’t worry about those non buying readers who say they “love” you for sharing FREE info for their benefit yet have the audacity to criticize you for offering premium things to sell. FOCUS on your customers.
  • Solve to Sell: I said it best ion another article. Solve a problem and I almost guarantee you it will lead to a customer.
  • FOCUS on people who “desperately” need problems solved: That makes the difference between a customer today and a customer a month from now or never.
  • Small is the NEW Big online (BELIEVE IT): STOP trying to kill yourself over traffic when it is not a question of traffic it is a question of targeted soon to be converted visitors.
  • Get a good foundational program: I already told you earlier what worked for me (NPC). that was a way for me to establish a base of thinking that changed the way my company did business.

WHY would I tell you about this if I am doing so well?

Simple: instead of giving you the cliche “I care about helping people” comment I thought I get RAW and REAL with you. Don’t get it wrong I do care about helping people but here are some equally real answers:

First of course is that all of the links to Niche Profit Classroom are affiliate links. Who better to offer it than me? after all I actually DO This.

But I am sure your wondering WHY I would promote NPC. Well I kept it to myself for 6-7 months actually LOL until I realized the following…

  1. 600,000 niches and sub niches is more than enough for everyone.
  2. Unfortunately even if I tell you and you follow through the odds are on my side. See many of you will signup to programs like NPC and a) do nothing or b) not followup with your initial actions. I explain this truth in detail in “How GURUs make money online. Very sad but true.
  3. In the next 2 years there will still be less than 10,000 out of millions that understand how to do this. Also even fewer will grasp  what this article really means and how to turn it into money. So the door is wide open for all who “get it”.

So there you have it real answers and online business ideas from a more than real person. I have a saying: “There are those who get it and those who don’t be the one that gets it and work with the ones that do.”

Just a small taste of what’s inside.

Incredible Story about Eminem and Online Credibility

Many of you may know I used to work for the Universal Music Group in the past. One of their labels of course is Interscope which helped launch rap superstar Eminem. Shortly after his first album The Slim Shady LP hit the streets Eminem went from being a highly underestimated rapper to a household name.

And then in 2000 came the next album Marshall Matters LP which was right before a mega tour. The University of Chicago was lucky enough to schedule him to a sold out performance for their annual spring event. This was actually a really rare and unique show because there were (3) acts. Eminem was the headliner but then there was rock band Goldfinger, and Hip Hop legendary band The Roots. The cool part was all 3 were under the Universal Music Groupumbrella just different record labels. So I got a chance to work all three.

So while Goldfinger is playing I went to Eminems dressing room and met him for the first time. He was a very mild mannered humble guy no major ego at all. We talked about the funny stories from the last album and the things he was doing for this one. We also discussed his new lifestyle and how the sudden success of heis debut album changed the way he lived.

AND THEN IT HAPPENED……

It was time for Eminem to hit the stage. So me and roughly 2 people with him walked out of his dressing room. Side note: the real rappers don’t have “entourage” they just have 1-3 people that usually consist of a road manager, hype guy (guy who pumps up the crowd before and while he is onstage) , and an assistant. This was before he was recieving death threats thus less personal security. Well as soon as we walked out of the dressing room the stage manger introduces Eminem to someone…….

There is a important lesson in what your about to hear. GURU’s, Social Media experts, SEO experts, and internet marketers listen up.

Adam Short Niche Profit Classroom Rare Interview

Adam is not one for the spotlight. But as I told you before. Niche Marketers are less concerned with being popular and more concerned with being profitable. Also as you hear the sincerity in Adams voice I feel the need to remind you that this guy is making almost 6 figures in a 30 day period. He is a regular guy with irregular thinking.

Also there is a last chance $1 trial as I have been pointing out in this interview.

Join $1 Trial Here Now Before it is GONE

The reason it is your LAST CHANCE is because when Niche Profit Classroom moves from 2.0 to 3.0 later in June/July 2010 then the offer and prices will change. But if you grandfather yourself in now. The price will not go up as a current 2.0 member.

PS see all of the great Stories I wrote about niche marketing

Why Niche Marketers NEVER Show Their Websites

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

Since I started writing about the 10 year old girl that is making $3,000 a month in niche marketing. I have been getting a lot of requests to reveal both her site and a few of mine. I totally understand why you would ask for proof. On the internet you need it. But here lies the challenge with that type of proof. Proving to you opens my site to extra (in many cases a flood) of competition.

What happens when you reveal a website to the public

Niche Profit Classroom founder Adam Short revealed his Betta Fish site in late 2008. Since that time a TON of sites have popped up to challenge him.

See the way niche marketing works is that we are finding a low competition market with specialized search tools. We then apply a special method (actually several) to determine the competition level and quality. Then assess the sales history. Then we INVADE. Once invading we wait for results. Assess progress over the first 15 – 30 days. Then we re reassess and fine tune.

There is more to it than this but that is a simple overview of how it works.

Niche Marketers Nightmare

The worst thing in the world is to fine tune a site build a following of customers then EVERYONE finds out. Imagine its the late 1840s in California. Gold is discovered. You travel out to strike it rich. After weeks you discover  nugget. Do you tell others? Well I wouldn’t (laughing).

Whats funny about Niche Profit Classroom was when I discovered it actually WORKED I didn’t tell anyone for like 6-7 months. Then I discovered (2) things.

1. Read how people who sell GREAT programs can afford to tell others

2. There are over 600,000 niches and micro sub niches. So no worries of bumping into each other.

“So Darren How Do I Know if niche marketing works?”

Well Through Niche Profit Classroom I am a living example it does work.

But to answer that question more directly I would say the single most clearest judge to you should be your senses. That’s what made me choose them a year and half  ago. I mean here was this guy (Adam Short) talking in a non hypy way. He was sharing a TON of information. Do you realize when you signup to this free email you get hours of educational video? And his stuff is educational not presentational. So ask yourself what do you see, hear. think, and feel? So much for my so called manipulative sales pitch huh (laughing hard) ?

In conclusion niche markers hide their sites to avoid more competition. The way to see if anyone is real is to check what they constantly say and exactly HOW they say it. I learned through the entertainment industry that authenticity come through time and talent not title and money.

Feel free to contact me if you have questions.

I usually have a longer post but I wanted to share a quick yet HARD lesson I learned years ago. I even talk about it in my 90 second solution for building sites. I was building MEGA sites (4 of them). This was one of the BIGGEST mistake I ever made because I was associating popularity with profits.

The profitable stay small and don’t worry about being popular. In fact in my line of work (REAL niche marketing) being popular can put you out of business really quick. In fact it would be like sticking your right hand in a piranha pool. Your almost assured to be called “lefty” really soon.

That’s doesn’t mean you are selling out your love, talents, and dream. Believe me you can turn those into a LOT more money than your making right now. The question remains do you want to do it the right way?

How to transition to a profitable online business instead of a popular one

1. Solve to Sell

2. Remember the 4 Sacred Secrets to Selling anything

3. Stop focusing on traffic and start focusing on the quality of traffic

4. Do what I did and actually this is why this post was created.

The 4 Sacred Secrets to Selling Anything

Well I already shared my super simple theory called “Solve to Sell”. Now we are going to delve into the details. There are 4 secrets that I teach in my FREE mentoring program for people that signup thorugh me for Niche Profit Classroom. If you really want to make money online (no really not a joke) I strongly encourage you to at least look at my 90 second solution.

Here we go:

4 Sacred Secrets to Selling Anything

1. Search (well DUH I know many of you knew that). But what many of you may not know is that Google adwords is only part of that solution. Many people fall victim to major searches thinking they need to get to the top of a million search keyword. STOP doing that. The money is in the 3 phrase keywords and long tail keywords. That means if your current keywords are only single ones then your in trouble. But search is not the lone answer.

2. Competitive pages: well now we dig a little deeper because not only should you know what people are searching for but what the competition is like. This is something a lot of internet marketers know about as well. And if you didn’t know….. well now you know (laughter rapper Biggie Smalls reference) . People usually search like this “Google search” in Google to find out how many people have pages ranking. But there is a major issue with doing that I am about to point out in the next secret.

3. Competition Strength: BIG BIG secret! You see a lot of searches and low competitors right? But WHOA hold on! Don’t rush too quick to register a domain and get the surprise of your life! There could be few competing pages lets say 5000 which is small.

But what you don’t know is that there are 2 gorilla sites waiting for your little Wee Willie site to just THINK about coming near them. They will devour you like fiber and we know where fiber ends up right?

If you are not assessing the top 10 in Google you are in trouble. I am teaching members who I mentor for FREE how to do this in detail when they signup to this.

4. Sales History: Hey this was a 5 figure lesson for me. I used to build MEGA sites. These sites were popular. Very popular and often even members of the mainstream media were visitors. But at one point I discovered that popular is only related to profit by the letter “p”.

My point here is that if there is no history of a money making business model then you are in trouble. Frankly any niche your in should not only have a history but a diverse one.

Who is selling the ebooks? What else are they selling? Can you pinpoint what they are NOT selling and why? That’s where the discovery proccess begins.

Learn more about these sacred things from a secret society.And if you decide to join us contact me because I even have a really great FREE  mentorship as an addition that will blow you away.

4 Sacred Secrets of Selling Anything

Solve to Sell

I am going to make this simple because I will go into detail in another article. I pointed out in 2009 how America caused it’s own recession. Now we are going to talk briefly how you can solve that issue. No I don’t mean the economy but YOUR economy. The better you do the better the economies of the world do as well right? Right!

So allow me a moment to get into your mind and rearrange what is digging into your pockets. And finally have you rethinking exactly HOW you earn money.

You know I looked up in Google and found more searches as I am writing this and “Sell to Solve” has a greater search than “Solve to Sell”. Everyone is trying to sell something to solve something. Instead of solving something and making a sell. The latter is how I have made most my sells.

Here are (3) simple solutions

  1. Find a problem (not your problem your customer)
  2. Offer a solution in the form of benefits
  3. Continue to solve their problems AFTER the sale

In fact I have a problem I can solve for you in seconds

7 Elite Skills of a Silent niche marketing Society

Listen here for more info

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

I want to clearly identify WHAT these skills are and WHY you need these skills. Everyone is NOT a member. Everyone cannot do this. Weird sales pitch huh? (laughing) But it is NOT a sales pitch. Sure I have an audio and video detailing a great niche program I am a part of here. But read this article in detail and you will understand why so few people are actual members of a silent niche marketing society.

I have a saying “Anyone can be a entrepreneur / but not everyone can be an entrepreneur.” What I mean by that is that the opportunity is there. But you may not want to stay for the opportunity (laughing). Same goes for niche marketing.

Can you get into niche marketing? Of course. Can you join our society? Yes. But will you stay? That’s where the big question mark comes in.

I notice a lot of people use the “elite” word a lot in internet marketing. But I use it very carefully. I use elite as in this definition: Latin, eligere, “to elect”. In sociology as in general usage, the elite is a relatively small dominant group within a large society. In niche marketing (the REAL niche marketers) dominate with the following skills.

Do you have them?

7 Elite niche marketing Skills Do You Have Them?

1. Focus: If you are dealing with a ton of internet marketing emails you will FAIL at niche marketing. You have to be able to fine tune your focus. Read the other 6 skills to see why. Without focus the other 6 skills are not as effective. FOCUS means redirecting those emails. That means unsubscribing to ANYONE that is not bringing value to your business.

2. Patience: This is where the REAL survive and the “get rich quick” fade out quickly. This is a long term game. The rewards are greater but you put in your work and you will be amazed! Here is why. The sites we do in niche marketing are way less maintenance. On a average month you are only making sure everything is running smoothly and adding a few pages and your done. Of course setting everything up correctly the first time is major work but now we are talking about after that process.

3. Heart and a Brass Pair (even if your a woman): Takes a lot of heart to walk into a billion dollar market establish yourself as a authority and hold that market. My 10 year old student (Darth sue we call her) has heart. She is beating over 8 competitors in her first site. One of which is a international toy company.

4. Marketing Research Skills: Combination of creative articulation to logistical. IS a market there? Are there competitors? Are they gorillas or unicorn competitors? Is there proof of a product or service being sold? If so what? These are just a few of the questions you must ask before you build anything. niche marketing is 70% research. Research is the foundation of niche marketing.

5. Execution (action and follow through) This is where analysis by paralysis DIES. Focus, show patience and heart and research your butt off. But if you don’t DO SOMETHING then you fail. Period. Real niche marketers take massive amounts of ACTION.

6, Assessment Skills: Can you do 1-5? Great now you have to look at what you have done and the results. What worked? What didn’t? What can you A/B split test in the next 15-30 days with at least 100+ people in traffic? Assessment is one of the most important processes because the more fine tuned your are the easier it will be to do #7.

7. Repetition: Can you fine tune (1) website to get say a few hundred people coming to it? And say 230-100+ people signing up to your email list? Can you convert at least 3 or more sales minimum each month with a minimum priced product of $15? If the answer is yes. And if you signup here you will find out how to do that. Then your next step is to duplicate the process. This is why Wal Mart is selling 400 billion dollars a year in a recession.

Did this fit you? Do you have these skills? Want to fine tune them?

How to Beat Up GURUs in niche marketing and Take Their lunch Money

Listen to my live message

Audio clip: Adobe Flash Player (version 9 or above) is required to play this audio clip. Download the latest version here. You also need to have JavaScript enabled in your browser.

Frank Kern talks about it, Dan Kennedy writes about it, John Reese and Ryan Driess mention it in their $1000 courses. But NO ONE speaks about it as openly as I am going to here. Think about it when is the last time you talked about a sheer butt whipping you took? Thats why the GURUs don’t talk about niche marketing in detail as much as they could.

The GURUs some good some bad but all quietly keep a butt whipping secret. Now before I tell you ….well you may not want to read the truth. See many of you have been convinced that “internet marketing” is the be all to end all money making thing to do. And if you wish to continue that fantasy then please leave this page (laughing out loud and hard).

Walmart used to Beat on GURUs of Retail

Wal Mart didn’t make their money by going to BIG markets and going toe to toe with K Mart who was in the past the largest retailer in the USA. You know what they did? They silently beat K Mart when it didn’t exist. In fact the more OFF of K Marts radar the better.

What I am saying is that there are  500,000 sub niches and even 2 million more in geo targeted locations. So why are you just in “internet marketing“?

All of the famous names I mentioned at the beginning of this article really made their money in the obscure low competition niches. And here is the amazing part and the secret I was talking about earlier. GURUs get beatup in these niches all the time by the little guy. that’s right the little guy whips them up. How? Well have you ever heard of “The Science to Getting Rich”? a guy named Wallace D. Wattles wrote it 100 years ago.

And in it he said

“The ownership of money and property comes as a result of
doing things in a certain* way, and those who do things in this
certain way whether on purpose or accidentally get rich,
while those who do not do things in this certain way no matter
how hard they work or how able they are remain poor.
It is a natural law that like causes always produce like effects,
and, therefore, any man or woman who learns to do things in
this certain way will infallibly get rich.” – Wallace D. Wattles The Science of Getting Rich 1910

Would you rather be Famous or Financed? Popular or Profitable?

I been talking about this amazing group of people that officially don’t exist. The group that the 10 year old girl scout belongs too. And the group is very powerful. Their greatest power they have is their silence. And THIS GROUP is the one that beats everyone.  Here are a few stats.

  • Our Leadership makes up to 6 figures a month
  • We are quick, silent, and profitable
  • We generate FREE traffic and even scare our competitors to SPEND MONEY on PPC
  • We are NOT into popularity but profits
  • Research is our recon
  • Automation is our administration
  • While others Sell to solve their problems. We Solve problems  to Sell….repeatedly

Don’t BE the GURU BEAT them…and then take their lunch money (laughing).

Well if you haven’t heard one of my most interesting mentored students is a 10 year old little girl and her family. In fact niche marketing paid for a vacation to a water park for her entire family.

As I explained in this series she is set to make 5 figures this year by following specific steps.

I also explained n detail exactly HOW she is is striking FEAR into her competitors How do we know? Well (laughing) one competitor started buying PPC to leverage his lost in that market to this little girl. Now that fear.

And then there is her $400 billion dollar 100 year old strategy. This is where it get really scary. Because I am pointing out how her Wal Mart and others are pulling this off everyday!

Between that and her cloning process she is on fire.

Her success didn’t involve genius. Only focus, work, and research.

There is an underground secret niche marketing society online that few speak about in detail. In fact there are several. And I and my partner and his 10 year old daughter are all members.

The reason we don’t talk about this group too much is because many “regular” (regs we call them) people think it is the same as all of the others. The “regs” think the site is run by some sort of get rich quick GURU. Some guy who is a obnoxious, narcissistic, egomaniac.

But little do they know….

Surprisingly it is not. Our leaders are some of the most quite lay low humble people you will ever meet. In fact they look like the pizza delivery guy. Not a Wall Street Tycoon.

This secret  group revolutionized my business.

And I secretly mentor people who I help enter this secret society.

  1. We don’t worry about competition because we enter like VIKINGS.
  2. Google loves us! In fact I have a harder time with the public sites like this with Google than the secret society sites.
  3. Our strategies work so well that people are afraid to speak openly and they talk in code in our forum.
  4. Here is a example of the videos that I mentor people about

The funny part? This actual society has been right in front of your face.

Whoever said the best hiding place is the public was very RIGHT.

And that is only one layer of of our society. … there is another.

How did a 10 year old girl create a 5 figure site? The truth is that if you have been to this site it has happened right in front of your eyes.
She did something very simple yet with a detailed training.

  1. She found someone looking to solve a problem
  2. She found a way to solve it
  3. And then repeated the process.

But thats not all this is just a overview generalization (DUH moment I know). In fact that the answers above are only the beginning answer.

If your reading in between the lines then you understand what I am saying.

Inspiring Online Business Ideas for Middle Aged Entrepreneurs

OK it is wake up time middle aged people. I have been talking to people about my Future NOW Project for a while. Two issues I am hearing repeatedly involve  age and or heavy competition. So there are a couple of things I want to share with the middle aged online entrepreneur.

You Have an Advantage

Experience is on your side in many ways. What the 20 something crowd lacks you make up for in experience. There is an old saying that goes “Little things are of great concern and great things are of little concern.” With age comes an increased attention to detail. The art of the followup before and after the sale is on your side. Stability and history is also on your side. These are foundational online business ideas that you have developed offline.

You Don’t have to Compete only Create

Listen to this classic by the late great Earl Nightingale. This was on a 33 inch vinyl record and was the first spoken word record to go Gold and Platinum (thought they didn’t have the platinum plaque it sold over a million copies). There is a part in here where it says you don’t have to compete only create. Your ability to develop quality even recognize it is 10 times stronger than your younger counterparts.

The Power isn’t in the Pricing but in the Positioning

The fact is that with competition there will always be lower prices. But have you noticed something interesting no matter how much competition? Millions of cars sold yet a Bentley, Mercedes, Ferrari are always selling for a higher price correct?

Though other cars sell at a lower price it is the positioning of these brands above that demand a premium price. These cars nor services are not for everyone.

You have to make sure that your prospects get that it isn’t about the price but the return. Now I also have to get a little real with you by saying this: If you do not have a unique selling proposition you deserve to be competitively beaten. I have written about this repeatedly.

If your prospects and competition don’t “get” meaning understand exactly what your unique selling proposition is then you don’t have one.

I outlined this in both Online Business Ideas for Identifying Your Unique Selling Proposition and Online Business Ideas for Creating Your Unique Selling Proposition.

Have you noticed that I have yet to talk about technology?

When you stop learning your dead. Remember the online business world is a “mind” game. Not a physical one. This isn’t Soccer, Basketball or Football. You have a wiser mind, more contacts a tremendous head start.

The ball is not only in your court but so is the audience. Ask President Obama who raised over half a billion dollars from everyone. Whether you like him or not understand that it was the youth that was the power behind his movement. And er ah how old is Obama?! The man hadn’t even been on Twitter. But he was smart enough to find who was and wise enough to learn.

The playing field is a lot more even than you think and after reading this hopefully you begin to lock down your USP position yourself and make something happen.
