I am wondering how to transform my passions into a niche...I travel constantly (on a low budget) and I am very interested in politics. I also used to be a consumer finance manager, so I know a bit about finance. Any ideas how to transform these into a niche where I can help people and make money?

    Sure...do some research and find a way to create or build a business for people who want to travel and make money online using a laptop only.
    The best way for this is to sell an ebook, about how to make money online selling digital information......it also can be about hobbies,music or business.
    With an ebook being sold you can make a lot of money online by having it automated with a digital delivery system.
    The best thing about this is you have a product to sell, but you do not have any overhead costs of buying or storing a product.
    I have to tell you the first time I wrote an ebook I made $8000.00 the first month...after that it was all uphill.
    But my ebook was about making money online and was 100% original and I owned the rights.

    Anyways good luck , do some research online.....and I hope things work out.

      wow. huge opportunity here. how to travel on a shoestring budget.



      you could start a blog and express your views. just to build an audience and a personality. but not sure how to monetize this.



      this too offers excellent opportunity. we are at a time when there is huge demand in the finance niche for information on how to get out of debt, how to save your house from foreclosure, how to reduce the mortagage on your house, how to reduce/manage credit card debt and so on.

      i dont know what your specific niche is but i am sure that there is an opportunity there.

      if you could just start sharing your knowledge your have using a blog , and also offer lots of free information (of high value) and build a list then that would be a great way to start.

      then ask your list what sort of products they want and provide it to them.

      since you are traveling a lot you could also try to get consulting clients in location where you are traveling.

      you could also conduct workshops in location where you travel. (these are high ticket items).

      and ofcourse not to mention the entire lineup of regular products...ebooks, audio courses, video courses, membership site , teleseminar, webinar.
      Wow! Thanks a lot. I am really glad I found this forum!

    Hi Kristie, Travel, politics and finance are a few of the most competitive niches out there. Finance is so competitive that EzineArticles just announced today on their blog that they may stop, and even remove, some types of finance articles. I would hate to discourage you and I could be wrong but I recommend research before deciding. On the other hand, heavy competition doesn't necessarily mean failure either, you could be the next big site in your niche. I'd rather be leading a big niche than a little unknown one anyway.

      Choose a topic on which you have got a lot of knowledge and then start posting your knowledge in a blog. Try to collect more and more information about it and keep on writing. Once you have a good amount of traffic, you will find people asking you to place their website links on your blog and you can do this to earn money

      Also, you can keep an Affiliate link on your website and if a visitor likes what you have written about, he would signup for something from that company and you will earn commission for it. Money again

      Hope this helps...

    Video Diary of Cheap Trips?

    One thing I have learned is that you are only going to make REALLY good money by packaging a whack of stuff! Multiple Modalities i think is the term.

    Find out what cheap travelers are buying as far as info is concern and piggy back on that.

    I have no agenda but to help those in the same situation. This I feel will pay the bills.

    This is a dot to dot picture book. Connect the dots and you will see the big picture.
    If you are in the USA think about delegates, election campaigns, caucuses, etc. Lots of travel and politics evolved in the above. How about a "How To Support And Go On The Road With Your Favorite Candidate For $50 A Day" ebook? Just A Thought.
