Can someone help me? point me in the right direction.

Hi Friend,

This is my first ever post on an internet marketing forum. I had to figure out how to post a thread. So all this is a learning curve. I need as much help as you can give me. Here is my story...

My name is Helen and I have just finished my law degree (9month ago), while i was studying i started a beauty salon and work there but the income is not adquate to achieve what i want in life and I do not want to work in law (too much stress and politics). I want to learn to make money online and have gone to some courses on ebay selling and persuasion techniques online. I have just finished a book on making money online with selling ebooks and trialling that. I don't want to do affiliate marketing and interested in creating my own products.

If you can, i ask two things:

1. Give me as many pointers as you can in creating an online income so i can replace my $50k job within the next three month (i don't care how hard i have to work)

2. I have started a blog in the hope of attracting advice and some coaching and support. If you can, i would appreciate it if you can post on it so i can build up a support network. Its called 90days to financial freedom on blogger.com

I have one fear in regards to making money online: Is there still a lot of opportunity online to make money? or has the niches been taken up by now?

Thank you for your post and attention.

My site should help you out quite a bit.

Can't add much to what Amki wrote already except to say to help with implementing that advice.

Consider what is important to you. Not what you think should be, but what really is important. It is what ever you spend your time pursuing the most.

Consider your strengths and build on those. If you do not know your strengths or even if you do I suggest buy the book Discover Your Strengths by Marcus Buckingham.

Consider realistically what you would do if you had nothing standing in your way. Then realize the only thing your way is you.

Hi guys,

thank you for your posts.

I do like article marketing. I just don't like affilitate marketing. So far I have create a program to help women to set up their own business and i use that to train women out of my salon. Apart from that i am also putting together a marketing program for salon owners using the marketing knowledge that i have learnt from university.

As for the online stuff. I don't know where to begining. I have just finished a book by brett McFall on 'how to make money while you sleep' and it talks about ebook marketing. I am currently exploring that option and have followed some tips from the book. Any tips on how to excel at selling ebooks?
