I'd love to hear your advice on this

1 replies
Hi Warriors,
I've just found out that I'm likely to lose my main source of income (day job), which has been 80% of my income.

I've had a cushy job in marketing consulting and have also been doing it on the side for the past several years because I love it. Also have a team of web designers and developers on hand.

I have a family, mortgage, etc. So I'm wondering what those in similar situations have done to raise money quickly without getting another job. I need to replace a six figure income. So I'd like to know what you would recommend to ramp up the side business as quickly as possible.

Thanks, Tiro

    If you are looking to replace your day job, which I presume is 4-8 hours a day of work, I think you should dive into the offline niche. Replacing a six figure income in a very short period of time is not easy. But it is not impossible.

    1. You need to find a target audience that is interested in a service or product.
    2. You need to be able to perform this service or create this product (or hire someone else to do it).
    3. You need to be willing to be the manager and initial marketer of your service or product.

    I recommend targeting your local small high end businesses in the area with web services. Website design, mobile design, local search engine optimization, local mobile adwords marketing, etc... There is an endless stream of different services you can provide clients. If you can put together a good sales approach, you can make a lot of money in the offline niche.
