Making money online? The possibilities are endless
I must admit I am getting frustrated.
I have drawn up a list of new business areas I would like to pursue and it is growing much faster than I can act on it.
That’s the good news.
I pretty much missed the first Internet wave, the bubble where people made zillions of dollars using other people’s money to accomplish… maybe nothing. In those days I was slowly building a traditional consulting business and growing one web site while studying half-time and working half-time.
I think I blew it by being too boring. Yeah, I built up my client list, raised my rates, made some nice money from my site, but then it mostly came crashing down when the bubble burst. I survived, barely. Somehow.
I was more successful the next time around. My business had grown into a small company and together we cranked out a number of web sites that made decent money for a while. When Google AdSense came along we jumped on it and made good money from it.
Now that is going away because there are so many people creating so many sites out there. We are looking for the next wave to catch. For the first time I see that there really are tons of ways to make money out there. It is just a question of picking something and pursuing it until one succeeds. Yes, it will usually not work the first time or the second, but persistence pays off.
If you have been eyeing a certain product or service that others seem to be making money from, go for it! I plan to update you about some of the things I am working on in the future.
