Find A Niche, Not A Job!
Go to: Previous Article Next Article
People often seek my advice, looking for ways to improve the economies of poorer areas and develop business solutions that benefit the entire community. Yet for all their good intentions, they rarely understand the difference between a job and a business.
If you have a business, the opportunities for profit are only limited by your imagination. However, the profits from a job are limited, even restricted. You exchange your precious time for a specified amount of money (usually best described as "never enough"). It's easy to see the benefits of attracting business to a community, rather than simply seeking jobs.
But if you really want to transform the economy of a community, then teach the people in that community to think entrepreneurally. Teach them to find a niche, find the needs in that niche and then fulfill that need for a profit.
Does that mean we have to teach the whole town these entrepreneurial skills?
Well, not right away. I said start with your community. Start by helping those in your niche. When your customers succeed, you succeed wildly. From there, spread the word to others: friends, family, members of your church then keep going until you've finally spread the word to the whole town.
Of course, this will take a while, but in the mean time offer free courses to your church and even to your community. Tell them that the reason you do all this is because Jesus Christ is not just Lord of your heart; He is Lord of your business as well and He is Lord of their business! He owns it all!
The internet includes thousands of special interest groups online. Seek out those with similar characteristics to your present niche. Using surveys, ask them what they want. You can make your own surveys on www.SurveyMonkey.com. The answers you receive will help you understand what they need the most, so you can provide it for them. Search Google for affiliate programs linked to your niche.
You will find more products to fill that need than you can shake a stick at! Put up a web page with those products and add some "buy it" buttons, invite that group to your web site and then collect their emails so you can tell them more about their niche every week.
People love to talk about their passions, and your emails let them do that. Everyone loves to learn more about their interests, or to hear of someone else who shares the same passions. Share the joy with your customers, and get ready to make amazing profits with your online business.
