Online Business - What's Your Ideal? (seriously)

by NetMan
13 replies
Hi ya all

If you could wake up tomorrow morning, pick up your mobile, tap on a button, and have the online business of your dreams ready to run and operate from anywhere you wish what would that be?

Imagine something that you could operate from the cafe of the corner, while being able to keep an eye on everything even if you were at the beach.

I know it can be difficult to point specifically for many, because there's so much possibilities and opportunities available to make a living online, it's mind boggling.

When I started, some 19 and a few dust years ago, I had this question in mind and I was pretty amazed and excited by all that technology could offer as possibilities for creating and changing careers.

Mainly, it was opening an unprecedented amount of TOTALLY NEW revenue streams possibilities as well. And if it's been difficult to point the right niche for me at that time, let me tell you it's even harder today because all those opportunities have exponentially EXPLODED since then.

While the previous state was mind boggling, I have no word to qualify the present state; insanely affecting? lol

Let me give you a few suggestions of what I believe could be some lucrative businesses to run online presently, those are among a few that I would like to have on hand to operate tomorrow, or better yet right now.

01 Facebook Marketing Agency HUB - Offering Facebook Marketing tools to businesses to promote their business on Facebook. Clients pay you a monthly fee to access the self service tools and training on your HUB.

02 SEO & Analytics HUB - Offering SEO and Analytics tools to businesses so they can process their own SEO and Analytics. Clients pay you a monthly fee to access the self service tools and training on your HUB.

03 Email & SMS Marketing HUB - Offering Email & SMS Marketing tools to businesses so they can perform in-house, no monthly fee, email and SMS marketing tasks to promote their business. Clients pay you a monthly fee to access the self service tools and training on your HUB.

These are just a few ideas for a start but I believe they would be extremely hot presently and anyone would easily develop a client base quickly enough for any of these services, especially from local merchants and businesses.

What do you think?

If you had choice only between those three what would it be? Why?

What would be yours? Why?

Of course, you can add your comment as well if you believe any one of those three would not be viable.

Regards,
Andy

      Seems like we do not have the same notion, or definition, of what a "turnkey business" is...

      Notice that the "definition" of a turnkey business is NOT the POINT of this post.

      But, according to your definition what would be YOUR dreams turnkey business?

      THAT is the question posed in regards to this OP.

      Didn't you recently just start two separate threads outlining your failed attempts to close sales?

      Didn't you say that you "need more time"?

      This fake it til you make it approach is killing your reputation.

        Looks like we should not waste too much time with this 'type' of 'comment' which sounds much just throwing random text around, with no real basis, at least nothing much on topic...

      Looks like you just cannot answer a simple question and love to post OFF TOPIC comments, AND that you cannot understand written words... To me, in my opinion...

      I do not see a trace of answer to my question in your reply, what's your goal have you taken your pills?

    New members may read this as

    "I don't have to work - I just hang out while money rolls in - got an office suite, own a porsche and a house in the hamptons...."

    But what does it really say?

    "I would LIKE to be able to hang out and make enough money to pay for everything....I would LIKE to have an office, would LIKE to have a porsche and my dream is a house in the Hamptons..."

    The first thing new members of this forum must do - learn to read between the lines rather than taking everything written at face value...

    I am leaning toward the: SEO & Analytics HUB - Offering SEO and Analytics tools to businesses so they can process their own SEO and Analytics. Clients pay you a monthly fee to access the self service tools and training on your HUB.
    I have a domain name that I could use a service like that on. I probably would perfer a cloud based service rather than trying to install it myself...a kind of plug n play system. That would be pretty hot right about now. But it must be evergreen or adaptable to changing rules of search engines...etc.

      Yep, "a kind of plug n play system" that's the idea, especially if we want to reach the "passive income" level eventually.

      Now, in the case of a "SEO & Analytics HUB - Offering SEO and Analytics tools" of course that's evergreen since it's an array of tools one can use to perform SEO and Analytics. So as long as the tools are kept up to date, it's evergreen.

      I agree, that kind of platform offer would be hot, and getting hotter with the increasing awareness of businesses "on the street" of the importance of BEING online today.

      Thanks for replying.

      Andy

    NetMan,

    Personally, I would not choose any of the three ... not because they are not viable ... any or all of them could be great business ideas for the right person. But those subjects and business models are not for me.

    I want to be inspired, get excited, and "jazzed up" about what I spend my time on. None of these subjects appeal to me personally and they are not where my interests, talents, and abilities lie.

    I guess I'm more of the creative type and would prefer to spend my time in other business marketplaces. I'm not at the point of being desperate for money and would prefer to do something I enjoy over feeling like I have to slave away at something that I could care less about.

    When people genuinely love what they do, "work" is a pleasure.

    Granted, the technical aspects of marketing may appeal to some - but not me!

      I totally agree that what we do as of 'work', MUST be a pleasure. I hope you enjoy plentifully what brings you so much "pleasure" in all "the subjects that appeal" to you.

      Not sure of what part of my OP inspired you that what I propose would force you "to slave away at" something though lol ... It's all the contrary in fact... That's the idea...

      Or that you absolutely need to love "technical aspects" of marketing to have an idea of what would be the online business of your dreams, let alone the notion of "being desperate for money" to have entrepreneurship spirit. I've good reasons to believe that main motivation for the majority of people to get on business is NOT because they're desperate for money.

      I've made my own suggestions BUT my first sentence IS:

      "If you could wake up tomorrow morning, pick up your mobile, tap on a button, and have the online business of your dreams ready to run and operate from anywhere you wish what would that be?"

      But it's also okay to express what it would not be for you, as well.

      Okay.

      But then, since you even quote my last sentence as well in your reply:

      "What would be yours? Why?" then?
