    Don't make the same mistake I did when Googling your competition.

    I'd be interested in that, I'll have to do that as the only reason I really used adblock was for Youtube and other video websites in the past. Hey maybe I'd actually find interesting ads on Facebook and Google nowadays. ;) Thanks!

    Don't make the same mistake I did when Googling your competition.

    Ok, thanks! I'll definitely look into adwords as it seems very valuable. I'm thinking of starting with other "free" methods in the very early stages, for the sake of money, and then decide if lack of a valuable business is the problem, or lack of exposure. Honestly when I freelanced, I had more...

    Don't make the same mistake I did when Googling your competition.

    I agree, this brings up something I've thought of. I'm not sure I even want to spend TONS of money on ads, as I'm part of the target audience for my startup and I ignore ads too. In fact, I used to have a saying, "If you see it on a commercial, don't buy it." Lol. I usually think "It's probably...

    Don't make the same mistake I did when Googling your competition.

    Ok, thought it would be more. That is good information thanks! The target is 20-40ish but not a "techie" related niche. Ah, I see what you mean. I only just started reading about what Adwords is about so I probably pointlessly mentioned that ha. I agree, I don't turn Adblock on specifically...

    Don't make the same mistake I did when Googling your competition.

    This deserves a :facepalm: face. When searching Google for potential competitors to investigate, TURN OFF ADBLOCK. I turned it off to find several different websites that include my niche that I could use for investigation. Luckily none of them are doing my exact idea, but still make sure to...

    At what point do you pursue a different niche?

    WEB/DIGITAL 
    MJ said on a different post: "For any idea pursued, you must put forth an effort to ensure you get valid echos from the market. What is the market saying? What is the feedback? Is there potential in your idea? Did your idea reach enough of the market to make an assessment? Do I adjust or do I...

    This WILL Cause your Bank Account to Go to $0..

    This times a million. I predict that if you can be grateful for your lame car and normal house, you'll be that way when you're rich. You won't end up like one of those greedy rich people that always want more. MJ, coming from a person who's achieved that, do you still find yourself wanting a...

    Question for MJ (and anyone else running an info biz)

    I'm no expert but the business can still be automated to a point. Some require more "upkeep" than others. For this forum, he has the money making part automated since it's a subscription service that people can sign up for. He also uses "staff" to automate things like moderation/question...

    how much reading before action

    I'll tell you what, MJ's book was all I needed. The rest came from Google/Youtube when I needed to learn something. ;) You heard it from MJ, don't read whole books. Save the time and money if you can and read off the internet on a problem by problem basis. Maybe books can come in if you know...

    I landed a job at Hallmark Cards as a bussines administrator

    I agree with MJ. In my opinion, getting a job doesn't mean you've lost or are even going backwards with progress. MJ had jobs when he started his business, after all. I'd say this job is even better than most because not only are you directly dealing with the business experience, you are also...

    That's great! There are those times, I've found, where people of different generations DO mesh (although you guys are still fairly close in age). I guess I meant like if a 65 year old who enjoys slow walks and conversation were to hang with a 20 year old who's always drunk and likes partying...
