I currently am trying to figure out my niche, what I want to market, and what direction I want to take it. Your Article/Report might be a great help for me.

I will agree to your terms and would be happy to comment and/or write you a little letter or article about its content.

Thanks

This should be a well visited thread since...

- Lots of people at this forum think selling how to make money stuff is all there is to conducting online business.

- Their chances of success are greatly enhanced if they choose to operate outside that most competitive niche.

I'm happy to send over a free copy to you if, in exchange, you're willing to let me know:

a) Any positive comments you may have on the report that I can use on my sales letter, and...
b) What *you* feel would be a fair price for the report once you've finished reading it

Sound fair enough?

I will send out a free copy tomorrow to the first 20 people to respond to this thread...

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Greetings Richard, & WF,

Joe here, a new arrival on the scene; of course a newbie guide would be a wise thing to ask for.

I know there are more than 20 here already.
Perhaps another value-exchange may be offered ... I have a bit of an editorial eye; spelling, context (their or they're ... to, two or too) subject-verb agreement, and perhaps a suggestion to improve flow.

Reducing semantic errors increases professional presentation.

Hmmm ... you seem a nice bunch of guys, focused on the business of business, from Finland to Australia. I'm in Vancouver.

Priorities matter, particularly at beginnings.
Looks like learning WordPress is a foreground priority.
Can I afford host4profit, or can I afford not siting there?

I do photography, among other things - seawall.ca

Looking forward to learning with you.

Be well,

Joe

(1st post)

Thanks

Greetings Richard,

Thank you for a review-copy of your Niche Marketing Wizard.

I've given it a first scan with an editorial eye and made of list of typos, word-flow glitches, and a few odd thoughts. There is always room for improvement of a manuscript. Fewer errors increase professionalism.

I'm a new arrival on the Warrior Forum; joe-van ... Joe from Vancouver.

I have a tip-o-the-hat greeting page at www seawall ca about me
You may browse my seawall.ca website for a taste of my photographic & writing repertoire.

Whilst I'm not averse to poetry, sometimes it doesn't quite mesh with business discussions.

You rub your hand on the grimy pane

In the hope that you can see

You stand up proud, you pretend you're strong

In the hope that you can be

Bruce Cockburn - Waiting on a Miracle

Perhaps you can incorporate these corrections and send a 'New Improved' copy to your subscribers.

There are many kinds of niches. Is there a need for an editorial eye in the ebook production community? I'm not talking so much of the C & D lists. A few key suggestions may be enough to nudge a document from the B+ list to the A- list. Is this a service some may pay for?

I've a great deal to learn, true; but there are also things I may teach. Symbiosis builds relationships - mutually beneficial life-forms. Maintaining access to the classroom in such a rapidly evolving area as the Internet is a point of interest.

My web-site is far from optimum. Focusing on content & photography neglects integration and marketing. It is a journey of many steps. Still, I've made a startling (to me) amount of money from photography sales in the last year. Much of the catalogue is online, most of the orders are local. There are many other web-site niches to cultivate, as you so eloquently survey. To work.

Oh, I'm planning to move another web-site over to host4profit. It'd be nice to find a Warrior who'd like the $10/mo residual for maybe an occasional tag of assist. Perhaps I can get off a disability pension and become self-supporting.

What part of the UK do you live in?

These are just some textual glitches that may be priority corrections. The conceptual review will follow in a few weeks, when I've made time to explore, test, and gather evidence. Currently I'm going to be listening to Chris Farrell's web-broadcast this afternoon, then dealing with a tax concern, and other life-chores.

It's been a pleasure making your acquaintance, Richard. Hope I've been of some assistance.

Be well,

Joe

Niche-pdf-review

Typo's etc. ...

P 4 of 63, third paragraph from bottom; "Infact, with a crowd like that, simply having a book ..."
Needs space "In fact".

& again, same error, third line from bottom;
"But that's not the only insatiable crowd around. Infact there are plenty if you know how to find"

P 8 of 63 John Reeses
I haven't heard of John Reese, I'm new here, quick search turns up income com blog & BlogRush & other things to perhaps research.

P 10 of 63
If you have a specific business model in mind, bare it in mind from the outset.
Should be "bear" in mind; carry, rather than naked.

Hmm ... the index isn't paginated - odd choice - apparently you prefer readers not jump ahead to specific topics without understanding the frame of reference.

11 of 63
Hopefully, dear reader you appreciate things aren't that easy and that these gurus who teach such things either don't know the full extent of what they're trying to teach or choose not to tell you.
Nice to see "dear reader" exercised. It has a reciprocal, "dear writer". Communication is a relationship activity, relating, which requires work from both parties.
In this case "dear reader" should have commas on both sides, like a proper noun; "Hopefully, Earnest, you appreciate things aren't that easy ..."

[Sub-text; "The Importance of Being Earnest"

& the importance of earnings.]

Surface text; if you're going into business you must learn to exercise prudence. Not all teachers are competent, nor on your side; not all lessons are easy.

Santayana said, "Skepticism is the chastity of the intellect." You don't want to be giving your time, money (or cherry) to the first wisps of flattery you hear. "Too good to be true" often is. Intellectual rigor requires review of evidence, verification from other witnesses, substantiation, proof. Intelligent exploration need not be virginally shy; it can be bold, its requirements are not fake, and once an assertion has passed its tests, a fresh conviction can be tucked in the tool-kit.

11 of 63
Another new name to me, Andrew Hansen, search turned up ... PayPal critique, Warrior thread , Mike Filsaime, a Vegas Vince rant with more than a few typos; PayPal requires competent competition. There are lots of names to learn.

12
The niches you find should be your most closely guarded secrets of all. By all means tell someone how you built a blog quickly or increased your subscriber numbers. But don't reveal your niches. Ever. After all, that's why the "gurus" never tell you about their non-Internet marketing sites. They know full well that if they publicize them, a dozen copycats will be launching competing sites within days.
And with that their cash cows will start drying up - and they might actually have to start doing some work ;-)

Wow!

In this case there may be no evidence to examine.

(Hmm ... Word converts Acrobat's TimesNewRomanPSMT into this semi-Verdana.)

The principle of brainstorming niches is simply to come up with ideas - lots of them. Infact, while it multiplies up the work involved considerably,
"In fact," space again.

ditto
For the sake of clarity I thought it might be fun to actually complete a case study as we go so I will be doing some actual niche research with you as we hope in the hope that it illustrates the niche process clearly. With that in mind, let's start looking for killer niches...
Hope doublet induces flow stumble; rephrase.

15 of 63
2nd use of 'whilst' ... poetic variation of 'while' ... perhaps use more sparingly ... romantic archaisms have their place, but they may be a distraction from the tone of business.

Oh, I see the ebook is already for sale at ~ niche marketing wizard com ~ for $27. Text corrections should be sent soon for professional presentation. (Follow-up correction file may be sent to subscribers as a benefit / goodwill gesture. Better than an errata sheet.)

Of course, in order to sell a website there, the vendor generally has to give out a variety of information on what money they're making and how. And that creates an amazing opportunity for
Word-flow preference - the vendor generally has to provide significant information on what money they're making and how.

Wow!

After all, whilst it is true
Ah, matters of taste; romantic terms ask for resonance ... whilst 'tis true
'While' is a fine and sturdy word.

35 of 63
so you should have a starter list from there to go on, but let's try and bulk that out for you...
"An ellipsis at the end of the sentence that ends with a period (or such a period followed by an ellipsis) appears as four dots...." Wiki. I'm fond of ellipses too.

37 of 63
Alexa graph, January 19, 2009, first legible date of research / composition. Point of interest.

ditto
knowing that whilst these may not be the most profitable sites,
Perhaps I should just accept a quirk of character. (It's not as if I haven't a few too.)

But Orwell wants a window-pane; clarity, not distractions.

38 of 63
Screen shot cuts off 's' in subcategories. Incidental, perhaps irrelevant.

51 of 63
End of page; ... to....
Wiki; Bringhurst suggests that normally an ellipsis should be spaced fore-and-aft to separate it from the text, but when it combines with other punctuation, the leading space disappears and the other punctuation follows. He provides the following examples:
i ... j
k....
l..., l
l, ... l
m...?
n.....!

& so a space 6 lines above;... and so on.

53 of 63
As a reminder - should you be willing to spend a few pounds on your research
a few pounds (or dollars) {some Americans don't know what a pound is.}
{Amongst the weight-obsessed it's something else.}

Moving on...
Moving on....
(Hmm ... MS Word lexicon seems to prefer the space-less three-dot for a terminal ellipsis. There may be variation of opinion on these matters.)

Incase the word "authority" is new to you,

SEO For Firefox is an amazing plugin
Not a glitch, just a Wow!

I can't send a private message yet,
