Don't know where I belong. Can anyone help me to find my path?

You have a gift and talent which is art so that could be the niche you start in being that you are passionate about it .

Do not overthink the process because it will lead to confusion.

Use your skill and passion which is art to get your message out there and also build your reputation.

In other words share your expertise on different socialmedia olatforms about art.

The.secret of getting ahead is getting started Mark Twain .

Action breeds confidence .Remember you will learn and develop more skillsets as you go along .

No one started out knowing everything they know ,learning and growing is a process .

Take it one step at a time .


.

Before you start - develop a plan of action. Know WHAT expertise you are sharing and how you can monetize it if that is your goal.


You might want to read through some of the threads on the 'warrior path' section here - for a realistic view of what is involved in building a business or in reaching a specific goal.

Thank you Kay King,

I have always been thinking about the commercial side of the art world.
I'm checking the 'warrior path' right now and have found some inspirational threads.

It sounds like you would be great at setting
up WordPress/websites as well as designing
graphics for all sorts of things from headers to
print on demand projects and ebook covers.

Once you develop some basic skills, the sky's
the limit for you. You will then need to learn a
few more of the fundamentals about domains,
developing content and monetizing your sites,
if that is the route you choose to take.

Keep in mind that most of these things can be
done by others, you don' t necessarily have to
do everything yourself.

Get busy learning as much as you can, start
working on your projects, get lots of practice
and things will fall into place for you.

If your looking to get started the suggestions above this are spot on. Don't over complicate things by reading to much other stuff on the forum. If you do, you may get overwhelmed.

You do mention money and a few other things about skill. Take a look and read all 3 pages of this thread. It gets really deep into certain things that could help you. The forum vets are worth listening to. https://www.warriorforum.com/main-in...houghts-2.html

Added - Try viewing the forum in Classic View it will be a lot better following the conversation between people.

Another good thread to read through and learn from:

I don't suggest anyone try to follow what someone else did - but you can learn a lot from those who have succeeded and are willing to talk about it...


Rather than 'reading' the IM glossary - bookmark it and look up what you need when you need it.

@Matteo

Thank you but I don't need any favors.

I have been making money online for
20+ years, started by selling on eBay
and was able to retire early from my
day job. Most of the things I engage
in now are passive income methods
that I have developed over the years.

I come to the forum to dispense what
advice I can and I am ecstatic when
I am able to help someone like you.

If you're going to do affiliate sales then
I recommend starting with ClickBank or
DigiStore24 because most of their offers
don't require approval. Once you start
making sales you should contact the real
affiliate networks like CJ, Flex Offers or
the hundreds of others.

There are some companies that manage
their affiliate programs themselves, these
are typically big ticket, high end products,
so always keep your mind and your eyes
open for affiliate opportunities.

I hope that you keep us updated on your
progress!

Hi Matteo

Have you looked into NFT's? Lots of artists selling their work online on marketplaces like opensea.io.

Hey Matteo, whatever could be your creativity and skills, all you need to do first is start a website around that interest. Then use blogging, forum marketing, email marketing, and video marketing to promote it. I'm telling you that in a period of 18-24 months of doing these consistently, you're going to start earning a full-time income. While there are so many other business models out there, starting a website of your own and promoting it vividly is what I would recommend best for you.

Do a search for Marques Brownlee.

He loves tech and all he does is unbox tech gadgets on video (sent to him for free for his audience reach)

He is now a Multi-Millionaire.

When we can tie in our interests and passions into an income stream there is nothing better.

Hi again everyone, thank you for your support.
Regarding my journey, it isn't going very well (for now).

I have designed my website. It is a personal website: a blog and a portfolio (but it still confuses me because the portfolio aims to a different target than the blog - the blog is a collection of my thoughts, daily logs, workout sessions, reflections and so on; while the portfolio is a collection of my previous graphic design works that were done some months ago).

I built this site with the goal of sending it through social networks to find clients, offering them graphic design and web design services. Here, two things happens:

1. When writing private messages to people, I don't like the idea of dealing with 'every kind of target' (from the individual that needs a portfolio to the organization that needs website management);

2. I feel like nobody, nowdays, needs a website (or at least someone that manages it for them) because they can do it for themselves; so, either I am aiming to the wrong target (I should choose bigger corporations rather than individuals or locals) or I am choosing the wrong service, and should create a better one, an offer, something that the market needs more today).

So, I need to change direction again. This isn't working (or I just don't like it).
I was thinking that, instead of sending the link to my portfolio and looking for clients, it would be more profitable to send people a product.
This would be way more immediate, and instead of saying 'hey, look at me, I am so good at doing what I do, why don't you ask me for some works?' I would say 'hey, this is something I made thinking about your needs, hope it solves your problem (or give you a better way of living)'.

Now, the point is to find a product, something that I love, that I know how to create - or learn how to create - that has a market, that has demand, that people really need and that is not another unneeded product.

Since I have no interest in making/creating/building physical products but have a passion for the digital/intellectual/artistic world, I am aiming for something that can be created on my computer/mobile and that can be bought online (without that dropshipping stuff).

Hope to hear from you.

Take it slow. Start with what you're really good at and see how you can monetize it (= make money out of it online). Go easy with taking in too much information. The best way to use the warrior forum is to soak up the skills you need once you've decided on an online business model. So do that first,especially following what you love to do.
