I mentioned about dropshipping and holding own stock here. But what if you know you are good at something, have some interesting skills that you want to share with the world, you want to teach your audience something, maybe you feel like you can train people on how to train others, or how to be the most entertaining gardener in the world, or how to quickly learn foreign languages, cook best Mexican food etc. etc.? Consider monetizing it by putting your know-how on the market, let people find out about you!
You can create your own, unique content. You can use your unique resources and be your awesome self! How you will carve your dreams and your kingdom, is completely up to you. You can use some free software to record your videos. You can try some online tools and courses (see?) to find out, how to make it look professional, how to behave naturally and feel more confident on the other side of the camera to convince people that you can offer them what they are looking for! World is full of youtubers, vloggers, ‘instainfluencers’, they all help each other to become visible online!
But the same world is not YET aware of what you can give!
Many of those tools are for free, but it is a chance for you to gain that confidence and express yourself. I mentioned about it before – you can say ‘there are so many cooking courses’ – so what? There are so many hairdressers in the world and those good at what they do are always busy! Even if they start as a small one-man-band, their quality will speak for itself and they have a chance to be successful. With e-commerce the content made once can bring you profit multiple times. When I started this website, I did not realize, how widely it will spread across the globe, I was looking at statistics with my eyes wide open. And trust me, I did not have much time for more new content, not mentioning about SEO/SEM – this I haven’t touched. But the website with decent content and sensible tags will get where you want it to go (maybe even further – you never know). So why not trying?
It is worth investing time in creating GOOD product
But also worth remembering, that this product has to target a specific group of people, that might need it (not just literally everyone). This has to be thought of – who do you want to be your audience, which of their problems you want to solve or dreams to come true, what is your niche. I can tell you about my dream – I want to attract people like you and me, open-minded but having their ordinary (sometimes boring) live, fed up with their 9-5 rat race, thinking about doing something exciting to gain new sources of satisfaction and income (my first boss told me the golden rule 15 years ago – “Always diverse your sources of income!”), wanting to be visible and In The Loop in an online world to enjoy their piece of the online cake, looking for a new level of fulfilment, that want to do something new in life but don’t know where to start. I would really want to show you the options, give you motivation, courage, knowledge and help you believe in yourself ❤
But I am full of hope, that I will also benefit from that knowing, that someone’s life has changed. It is always worth doing, even if you were to change one person’s life. End the end of the day it is not all about the money. Trust me, it is not. We need them – yes – I do not deny it. But they are not our goal. Satisfaction, harmony, fulfilment, piece of mind, a way to express yourself, helping others – these are the real values. You can have a web shop to sell car parts that are hard to purchase if you have a reliable supplier. You can sell handmade soaps or beautifully scented candles in funny shapes, you can sell themed toys for kids, whatever you are an expert in.
But you can also sell your experience, knowledge, reliable business solutions, skills
…and those are the ones that do not need storing (only a space on your hard drive if you want to record them – you can surely afford that) and your courage to start! And – as I said before here – you don’t have to be perfect, especially when you are just starting something completely new. It is great to go towards the perfection and expertise but… That’s the beauty of it, to give yourself time to learn, improve, develop, grow. And share your awesomeness with the world. I have started my journey and you are now a part of it with me, why don’t you start your own too?
