  • Don't Be Fooled! Business Models are NOT Businesses…

    It's so tempting to look at a successful online business and quickly determine that the business model is what you need to put in place…without ever considering why that business is successful in the first place. 
    For example, you see a Power Seller on eBay that is going crazy selling video gear to the growing market for amateur video partly driven by the movement toward online video and partly driven by lower cost of equipment.    From seeing that business, you decide I want to build an eBay business and go charging off to setup your seller account and see if you can make a Million dollars.

    When you're first starting out as an entrepreneur, looking for a business idea there are two common mistakes that you don't want to make…

  • Is Your Online Business Driven By A "BIG" Idea?

    Lots of attention has been paid to finding niche markets, uncovering hot markets, searching for demand as if the only thing you have to do to successfully earn a fortune online is to find a hot opportunity. 
    Not quite - how you position your solution to the opportunity is just as important (if not more important) than which opportunity you base your business on. 
    You would assume that finding a hot market is enough, yet think about it…a hot market means lots of competition, noise and customer expectations that will be higher than in other markets. (…)
