Can anyone help figure out some ideas? Could doing something simple as blogging about politics but to niche type of base maybe catch on to make money?
I’ve thought about selling wholesale on Amazon and Ebay but that doesn’t seem worth doing on my own and I’m working with a cousins company that does it and probably make more than if I did it myself.
Of course no one would give ideas that they would use themselves but I wonder if anyone can maybe throw some ideas on things I can really try from home that might might have potential.
I’m considering going back to college for business but admittingly if I can do something from home that could help others as well I would.
Any ideas would really be appreciated and I might delete this thread by tommorow so other people don’t take ideas from this topic.
Thanks !

Alternative Ideas To Make A Career Online Or Otherwise…?

I’m a marketeer and one of the basic principles of quantifying any opportunity is research. What is the size of your market? For example you are talking politics; you need to understand the profile of your target (age, social class, etc). Can you quantify the no. of people you can reach and thus the cost per reach (value)? Can you advertise on sites that they visit? Newspapers that they read? Niche is always a challenge as you have to truly understand your target audience and generally not that profitable, more an extension to something you already suceed in. In terms of selling wholesale on Amazon or Ebay; not something I’ve done, but have thought about. Again, who is your target? Mass market, or specialist? Don’t ever go for the spray gun approach and see what sticks, not a good strategy? In short, do your research, know what you are talking about. An idea may sound good in principle, however, once you drill down in to the detail and the size of the opportunity it may not always be a business. Have you ever watched Dragons Den? One of my favourite programmes. So many people fall at the first hurdle, they’ve not done their reseach. Good luck.
