The time has come; you’ve decided to start your own online business!

But where do you start?

Regardless of whether you have your own product or are promoting someone else’s the first place to start is by choosing your field or market.  The narrower the field, the more targeted your customers will be.   

Many gurus recommend starting with an area that you already have an interest in.  This is because you will be spending a lot of time at the beginning of your project learning the ropes, if you already have an interest, then you have a leg up on the competition by lessening your initial learning curve.   

For the sake of this article we will choose the topic of cooking.  As you can see this is a very broad topic.  To narrow it down or find a niche you want to start out by researching a list of keywords.   

Example: Home cooking, German cooking, Asian cooking, cooking tools, cookbooks, cookware, etc. 

Once you have a list of words that narrow down your main topic you need to determine which ones will make you the most money.  That is the purpose of business, after all.   

The first thing you need to know is how often Internet users search each keyword; this tells you the popularity of the keyword.  Next you determine how many web pages already fill the niche. 

Finding a keyword that gets a lot of searches but has a low number of web pages already in the market is the best way to choose a niche that will make you money.   

The final step to choosing your niche depends on your competition, the web pages that are already serving the market.  Take the time to research what is already offered, follow their links and check out what each is offering. 

To succeed in the niche, you will need to find a unique angle that will make your business valuable.  If everyone else is selling the same cookbook, for example, creating your own would give your business a product that can’t be found anywhere else. 

Niche marketing is a way to target a particular group of customers.  If you want more information about this subject, consider Teri Champigny’s “Short and Simply Guide to Finding Profitable Niches”.  Why keep stumbling around going through your funds with little or no success when you can benefit from this tutorial e-book? Get on the right track today with Finding Profitable Niches!  Learn from someone who’s spent years perfecting their methods!

I have spent a very busy two weeks in Las Vegas.

I attended a jam-packed weekend of information at JV Alert, so much information that my head is still spinning, visited with my sister whom I haven’t seen in 14 years, and had loads of fun.

I met so many wonderful people like Willie Crawford, Ron Capps (the Niche Professor), Mari Smith (the Facebook Expert), Marcella Cardinal (the Derma Diva), Jonathan Van Clute (Top Affiliate Challenge winner) Jason DeVelvis, Michael Savoie, Stephanie Mulac, Odinn Sorenson and way too many more to list here.

My friends, coach and mentor, Gina Gaudio-Graves, Socrates Socratous(also my mentor), Jeff Dedrick and Frank Sousa was also there.

I want to share some REALLY important tips that I picked up during JV Alert with you …

Hooray!!! It’s the weekend. Hope you have some great plans. In my part of the country, “Fall Festivals” are big.

Tomorrow I am taking my family to a good ole fashion “Apple Festival”, where everything that has been done with apples will be there.

Homemade apple cider, apple pie, apple dumpling, apple butter, even apple people. Go figure!

When I was growing up, this time of year not only brought thoughts of “trick or treat”, but we would have a huge bonfire and invite all the neighbors to weiner roast. Hot dogs, roasted marshmallows and ghost stories. No hassles and no worries, just loads of fun. Hey! It was a big deal when I was a kid.

Fall is definitely here. The leaves are changing to the most vibrant colors imaginable. The days are beautiful with that special “fall” feeling and just a tinge of coolness in the evenings.  Times like this I love going out and sitting on my front porch and just letting time drift along. Peaceful!

It won’t be long and Christmas will be here.

I love Christmas! Who doesn’t?

The Christmas season will be here before you know it, so now is time to get prepared.

And to get you into the spirit of Christmas, my friends, Doug and Teri Champigny, has created a very special “Have A Merry PLR Christmas” package of three fantastic Christmas products that can send your Christmas $$$ through the roof!

More people are online, looking for Christmas themed gifts and  books… and buying!  You just need to have the right Christmas niche products! 

Or in this case three products!

What is the difference between you and a Top Internet Marketer?

Besides the money, of course.

They put their pants on the same way you do.  One leg at a time.

So what is the difference?

The answer? They have their own products!

What if I told you that you could have all the research, writing, graphics and the salespages done for you?

http://www.theprofitshack.com/plrpkg

I just got the news from Doug Champigny that he has put together an incredible PLR package. There’s not just one plr product, but 10 ‘NO RESTRICTION’  plr products that you can do anything you want with them.

And the best part is he hasn’t even promoted it to his own lists yet.

I got special permission to let you know about this PLR Spectaculer tonight. And that makes you the first to see this package ahead of everyone else.

What can you do with these ‘NO RESTRICTION’ plr rights packages?

Anything you want…

* You can put your name on the products as the   author!

* You can modify the contents, change the E-Cover,  rename the products, change the source codes and include your very own back-end affiliate links!

* You can sell the products, individually or in a package at any price you wish! Just think of the profit potential!

* You can offer the Resell or Master Resell Rights - together or separately - to the products - and sell at a higher price!

* You can sell the products through auction sites!

* And much, much more!

Now, you don’t need to bang your head against the wall because you can’t think of what to write about.  It’s all done for you!

How cool is that?

PLUS… Doug has added a couple of bonuses that is absolutely priceless.

Don’t believe me? Take look:

http://www.theprofitshack.com/plrpkg

You better hurry, though. Doug’s deals are time sensitive - meaning that they could end at anytime.

Think about it! You could have 1, 2 or even 3 of your own products up and making you money, by the end of the weekend.

How cool would that be?

I know you’ve seen all these so called sales that are called firesales where you have a marketer trying to sell you a bunch of outdated stuff…

…Well this isn’t one of them. This is REALLY a firesale!

A fellow marketer needs our help.

So, when I learned about this tragedy, I couldn’t wait to get this to you.

It’s very rare to find an opportunity like this - a complete “win-win” for everyone!

Read the story here:
http://www.theprofitshack.com/realfiresale

Put yourself in the situation of having lost all that you have worked for all your life in a fire with your TWO teenage daughters just managing to make it to safety without injury. And one of them is pregnant.

What would you do?

Where would you turn?

You just lost everything and left with only the clothes on your back. And to make matters worse, you are left with all the cleanup costs, too.

Their home, furniture, pictures and clothes, EVERYTHING! All gone.

If you have never been in that situation yourself, you can only imagine the helplessness that is felt when you lose EVERYTHING.

My friend and fellow marketer, Lisa Preston is hosting a HUGE firesale to help out with the necessities.

She is offering the chance to get a MASSIVE collection of her best-kept secrets! Software, scripts, tools and products… while at the same time truly helping this family in desperate need!

Lisa knows how important it is to have a truly complete package of products, tools and resources at your fingertips in order for you to make any real money on the internet, which is why she’s created this powerful package for you.

She is offering the chance to get a MASSIVE collection of her best-kept secrets! Software, scripts, tools and products…while at the same time truly helping this family in desperate need!

In fact, you’ll be getting so much more than the standard tools you need to succeed that you’re going to be tickled to death at everything included!

You’ll find this package stuffed to overflowing with so much value, it’ll truly be one of those “no brainers” everyone always talks about - and you’ll be killing two birds with one stone…

You’ll have all the tools you need to succeed in your business, and you’ll be helping immensely with your purchase, as ALL of the proceeds generated by this firesale will go directly to her sister, Carol and her daughters, Kaytlyn and Courtney for the necessities of life they just can’t afford, and to help in some small way to rebuild all they lost in that horrible fire.

Carol, a single mother, works as a waitress. They are staying with Lisa in a 2 bedroom apartment with their ailing parents. Carol is having to drive to work an hour each way and the price of gasoline is taking a toll on her already meager income, which doesn’t leave much to replace what they have lost.

All I am asking is that you take a look at this page and decide whether you can or want to help out.

If you feel moved to help or find some products that you need, you’ll love what you will find in this MASSIVE firesale offer.

Get the full details here:
http://www.theprofitshack.com/realfiresale

Your consideration is greatly appreciated, and if you want to help promote, you can obtain a link after purchase.

I have been in this very same situation and know that there is nothing more devastating than to lose everything you have worked so hard for through no fault of your own. It was a extremely traumatic experience for all of us and took a very long time for us to get over it. We survived, but it still remains in our memories.
