Find Your Niche

My wife recently quit working due to health reasons. We were sitting pretty nicely on two incomes. We just moved, the cost of living changed and she became unable to work-all within just a few months time. So you can acurately draw the conclusion that we have entered into a financial pinch.

With all that being said, I have been trying to utilize my familiarity with the internet to gain a second stream of income via the web. And wow, have I been shocked and the volume of ways to get it. "For only 67.97 I will teach you how I make $1,000 a second" etc. Offers like that float around all over the internet. I actually paid for one of them (won't say which, makes me feel pretty suckered every time I think about it).

So what is the takeaway from all of this? After a whole lot of studying, reading researching, praying and just plain old thinking about it my conclusion is that to be successful you must be able to fill a niche that someone else isn't quite covering. Now don't go and flame me here, this is my opinion. If you have other idea's (not for a limited time offer of only 19.95 either) I would be happy to entertain them.

Dictionary.com defintition number 3 says a niche is 'a distinct segment of a market'. So, what's my niche? Still working on that one for sure, but I think just talking out how I am looking for it might help me out a little here. Could it be that the niche that I am looking for is nothing more than talking about finding a niche? Sound like a consultants job. Go somewhere, talk concepts and leave, all the whilte getting paid for it. That is what I need. Consulting work. Gotta love it.

Well, that's about enough about the niche market for now. Maybe I can sell niches? There are sort of like 'roundtoits', 'whatchamacalits' and 'whatsits' except for these ones are my product. Alright, I'll stop already. Signing out for now.
