The Two Biggest Reasons Why Most People Will Never Make a Full-Time Income Online

Tuesday, August 12th, 2008

If you are new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS Feed. Thank you for visiting!

It all starts when some well-meaning (yet misdirected) person encourages a budding internet entrepreneur to “start in a niche they know a lot about”, or base their business around “something they’re passionate about”…

As horrible as it may sound - they’ve unknowingly sent the hopeful entrepreneur down a path of false expectations, poor results and eventually - failure. In fact, the myth of “do what you love and the money will follow” has been responsible for more failure than likely any other influence - perhaps even more so than laziness or a lack of perseverance.

Because the simple truth of the matter is that the only way you’re going to make real money on the net is if your business is based around two crucial things:

1) Large Demand

2) Buyers

In other words - you aren’t going to get rich selling a $15 ebook about growing square watermelons - even though that might be a great passion of yours.

The demand just isn’t there. Maybe there’s a few searches a day on Google for the topic, and perhaps there’s some interest in the online “gardening enthusiast” communities - but you’d be hard-pressed to make even a few hundred dollars a month from ebook sales.

Similarly, you also aren’t going to have a particularly easy time getting rich by building websites about some seemingly “popular” topics like humor, jokes, funny pictures and so on. And while there are a few ways to “monetize” your site (with AdSense, CPA Offers, CPM Banners, etc.), it takes literally millions of website visitors to make even just a few thousand dollars in markets like that.

The demand is huge - but the visitor value is extremely low…

Instead, if you want to make it big online - pulling down an impressive six-figure income - you need to tap into markets with tons of demand, where the majority of the visitors are valuable.

You need to capture tons of traffic that wants to buy something. If you take this approach, you’d practically have to hijack your own order links (or affiliate links) not to make a sizable income.

In fact - did you know that some affiliates make several thousand dollars daily just by promoting a single product in hot markets? (Just imagine what the merchant is making…)

In some markets there’s actually so much demand that the vendors are quite literally selling over a thousand units - or more - per day. Digital products, with practically zero overhead/delivery cost.

But it all comes back to tapping into valuable demand. In most cases, it takes no extra effort or “skill” to market to a valuable market than it does to struggle along with something you’re passionate about.

These two factors - demand and buying traffic - are what separate the “wannabe” marketers from the millionaires. Because there’s no real secret - you just need to sell what thousands of people are already buying.

The ball is now officially in your court. Are you tapping into markets with massive, valuable demand?

Or are you struggling to simply make a few dollars occasionally with a business that’s based on your own passionate interests?

Dennis C Carey - How To Run A Company

Tuesday, June 24th, 2008

The intricacies that are involved in running a company are varied. Each company has its own culture and as such no two companies are the same. It is very important to have even a basic knowledge and understanding about how your managers and workers think about the company. They are just as concerned about the company they work for as you the manager are. In fact, they are the ones who more often than not known the strengths and weaknesses of the organization. So it is very important to get their input especially at times when drastic decisions that will affect the company’s future are at hand. Dennis C Carey in his book entitled “How To Run A Company - Lessons from Top Leaders of the CEO Academy” discusses these point and more that are truly helpful to business CEO’s and top-level managers.

An excerpt from the book titled “Assessing a Company As an Outsider Coming In” focuses on Raymond V. Gilmartin, chairman and CEO of Merck and Co. Mr. Gilmartin makes some very interesting and important points that are truly beneficial to CEO’s. He speaks of his movement from being CEO of Becton Dickinson, a medical device manufacturer, to Merck, a well-known drug giant. There is mention of the difficulties that he faced during the transition period and how he successfully managed to come through those turbulent times unscathed. An important point that he made about running a company, especially one that you have just been appointed CEO of after working for another company, is that you cannot come and make wholesale changes in the organization without being fully aware if its culture. He also mentions how he was able to acert disaster in his former company by making a recommendation that his then boss decided to follow.

Another important point that he mentioned is that you have to build support in the company. Get the views of all your workers, ask them how they feel the company is doing and what they would do if they were in your shoes. There is a lot more beneficial information to be found in “How To Run A Company - Lessons from Top Leaders of the CEO Academy”. Dennis C. Carey really helped me see how to effectively run a company. You too can benefit from his book by reading it when you get a chance. It is available from Random House, Inc. at a very reasonable price. Do yourself a favour and get a copy today. It is worth the read and the money.
