Does Narrowing your Niche Really Work?

by Filoiann Wiedenhoff

I have been doing much research on marketing and finding your niche market and in fact wrote an article on “Finding Your Niche Market”.

I wrote it because in doing the research I found that it makes a lot of sense. Our first initial desire to starting a home business is to make money, pay off bills or just to be able to work at home.

Most of the time we don’t really know what we want to do as a home business but as we start to look into home businesses there are such a plethora of choices and decisions to make that it can be so confusing and somewhat scary. Especially with all the miss-leading ads and scams that are out there.

So in doing my research I learned that narrowing my niche market would be more successful because in the general market the competition is plentiful. By having a more narrow field and focus we narrow the competition we have and it also gives us more of a focus.

So I followed my own advice and the advice of the experts and began to really look into narrowing my niche by focusing on what my niche market was according to my particular needs, abilities, passions and skills. (you can view my article “Finding Your Niche Market” on my website that explains this.)

As I made the decision between two niches, which one was writing inspirational literature I began to focus all my energies and attention on that particular niche and guess what? It made all the difference in the world.

I can’t tell you how everything changed for me. I not only was doing something I loved and have a passion for but the response I am receiving is great! The doors seem to be flying open to me and I’m just enjoying the ride.

Don’t get me wrong I have a long way to go but I have to tell you that following that advice really has changed my business from a generic “everybody is doing” business to a more focused and successful business that I see more blessings coming ahead.

Read my “Finding Your Niche Market” article on my website and other home business articles and try it for yourself. I think you will see the difference as I have!

Helpful Tips to Get Started Working From Home

by Filoiann Wiedenhoff

It has been my experience that looking for a good home business online can be frustrating, challenging and down right discouraging. We hope that these companies will do what they say and say what they do, but time after time and scam after scam we are sorely disappointed.

Legitimate companies do exist but how do we find them and what do we look for? Here are some tips to get you started on the right path.

1. Estimate: How much time, money and effort are you willing to invest into starting an online home business.

2. Evaluate: Find the “niche” business that’s right for you. Write down favorite past times, hobbies, and personal interests and evaluate which niche would you enjoy doing as a home business and which one is most profitable and marketable. We all want to make money online but statistics show that more people with an online business succeed doing a business they love, enjoy or have a passion for.

3. Educate: Like any business starting out, education is the key. Familiarize yourself with your particular “niche” online business, and invest in “how-to products, software and learn as much as you can by taking advantage of the many FREE advice columns, online classes, forums, articles and blogs that can help educate you in starting your home business and marketing your business online.

4. Embark: This is just the beginning; as you take the steps and follow the advice given from various resources and put them into practice, you will be well on your way to having a legitimate and profitable home business. Remember that Rome wasn’t built in a day!

Best Wishes!

5 Ways to Be Wiser Working from Home

Blind Frogs Can’t Jump
by Filoiann M. Wiedenhoff

Let’s visualize for a moment sitting in front of you was a big frog, yes a live one at that and it’s blind. It can’t see and every time it tries to jump it lands either in a hole or worse bangs against a tree. After a while that frog may not jump because it would be too afraid of getting hurt or worse killed.

I think sometimes we as people are that way, we leap out into some new venture without really seeing where we are going and find ourselves landing in a ditch or hole that we can’t get out of. We dive into new online businesses hoping we’ll have that testimonial and our picture on someone’s website saying we made hundreds of thousands of dollars with a big grin. I don’t know about you but it always seems few and far between when an average person, me included, starts a work at home business and immediately four hours later they made hundreds of dollars.

Let’s get real….I’ve yet to see it and I’ve yet to experience it but I do know one thing, I have been scammed and taken advantage of and I know what it’s like to step out or leap out without any knowledge of the business I’m buying into and then get burned. It’s no fun to be the sucker on the other side who paid that guy on the testimonial my $49.00 to make him richer and me poorer.

From having made poor choices with impulse buying and being deceived by misleading ads, It’s hard to ever trust anyone online and it’s definitely hard to know who’s legitimate and who’s not. That old cliché still rings true, “If it’s too good to be true, it probably is”. I’m not looking to get rich by any means, I just want to help support my family with some extra income.

So what’s the good word out of all this? Speaking from experience, just like that blind frog we should not be ignorant to the internet world of business any longer, we need to go in with our eyes wide opened and not be afraid to leap out into future business endeavors, if that’s really what we want to do. We have to keep moving forward and learn from our mistakes. So here’s 5 ways we can be wiser frogs:

1. Look:
Do personal research on the home business you want to get into and find out all you can about the niche and if it’s marketable.

2. Listen:
Keep an ear out for what’s going on in the internet world and find out what’s the latest in home businesses, your particular niche, marketing solutions and what’s working and what’s not.

3. Learn:
Don’t try to figure it out on your own, learn from experts, there’s plenty of “How To” software, free articles, blogs, forums and advice columns to read and learn everything you can about starting a home business and marketing your home business.

4. Leave:
If the business you’re interested in seems fishy and their promises sound shady they probably are. Leave it alone and move on to something else, our first instincts are usually right.

5. Leap:
Once you have done your homework and feel more confident in starting your home business, than you can think about investing some time and money, taking active steps toward starting your home business and be in constant learning mode, trying new marketing tips and persevere, persevere, and persevere some more. If one way doesn’t work try another until you find what works for you.

4 Tips to Narrow your Niche Market

by Filoiann M. Wiedenhoff

I recently wrote an article on the question, “Does Narrowing Your Niche Really Work?”. I wrote about all the positive results from having narrowed my personal niche and how it has benefited me in many ways by doing so.

I thought I would break it down to some simple steps on how to narrow your niche just incase you have no idea what I’m talking about. It’s okay if you don’t, I had to learn this like anyone else but I want to share it with others because I love to see others succeed.

Before you can begin narrowing your niche market home business you have to find your niche market home business first. I have an article that says just that on my website called “Finding Your Niche Market”. Check it out.

Once you have found a couple prospects, you are considering then it comes down to which ones you are going to focus on. So here is how I came to the conclusion of mine:

1. Check Market Value: There’s a page on Google Adwords, where you can look up any niche prospect and see if there is a market for what you want to do. It tells you the competitions you have by how many people are paying Google to advertise that particular niche. It also tells you how popular the niche market is by how many searches are made on that particular niche market.

2. Self-Evaluation Questions: Do you believe this is the business for you? Can you see yourself still doing this in five or ten years? Do you enjoy doing it, or have a passion or love for this niche? Do you have the skills and abilities to do it? Do you have the time and effort to do this? Are you willing to make some investment in this, financially and personally?

3. Consider the Cost: Making an investment is not only money but time and sacrifices. There’s always a cost to any commitment so be realistic of what you can and are willing to commit to and take some time to consider the answers to your questions, the market and your time and abilities to work and manage this niche business.

4. Have a Vision: The bible says without vision the people parish. Vision is needed to bring purpose with goals and a destination. Without vision you are just floundering with no purpose. After answering the self-evaluation questions, take some time to really think it out, project your business plan, write it out and have a vision for it. See the bigger picture.

When you make the time to think things through and consider your options and choices, it can make a difference on the final decisions you make. They are more thought out, guided and have direction and purpose.

When narrowing your niche make the decision that’s best for you. After all, the whole reason you are starting a business is for you right? One more thing, don’t let money be your deciding factor. Remember that it’s not just about making money it’s about starting a business that has potential to be successful and that will benefit you financially as well as personally.

You can view more of my home business articles on my website and make a copy of “Finding Your Niche Market”.

5 Reasons Why You Need Good Content For Your Home Business

by Filoiann M. Wiedenhoff

Lately I have been hearing a lot about having good content on your website from the business experts, I’ve been studying up on this very thing and have also seen other companies that are applying it and I have to agree that having good content does make all the difference in the world. I’m still working on building mine but came up with reasons I learned from the experts and so I’ll share them with you.

Here are five reasons why we need good content and how to get it.

1. It Establishes You: Good content should reveal you or your company as an expert. When people are convinced that you know what you are talking about and are an expert in your field it gives you creditability and establishes you as a professional. Share your credentials, your experience in the field or how you have succeeded using the product or service.

2. It Distinguishes You: It makes you stand out from all the rest of the competition. Good content will give your potential customers reasons why they should buy from you and also why they should trust you. Be personable and helpful that you’re not just out to get their money but really care for their success in using your product or service by giving them tips and free information to succeed.

3. It Sells Your Product: Another important reason to have good content is to sell your product or service. The biggest marketing tip online is to pre-sell your product before they even look at it. Pre-Selling is not a gimmick or hype but well written content that tells the reader and potential customer what the product can do and why they need it. It prepares the reader to not just be interested in what you are selling but ready to buy. One way is to share testimonials on how others have succeeded or benefited by your product and how they can too. Just the honest facts.

4. It Brings Returning Customers: Try having a subscriber list and create a newsletter that your client’s can stay in touch with you and build a report with them on the latest tips and trends in regards to your product or service. Auto-responder emails are also great for free give-a-ways and hottest tips. You can also add other articles from outside sources to help you provide good info.

5. It Brings Happy Customers: One of the best reasons to have good content is that it can bring you returning, happy and satisfied customers back weekly or monthly, It’s a win-win situation for both the business owner and the client. One last idea is once you get a good clientele base you could start your own message board for the clients to get to know each other and also for them to know you and answer any questions they may have. Building a community of people together that have the same interests and services and products will keep them coming back for more because they can encourage each other.

I’m going to re-iterate that market researchers have shown that a high percentage of successful online home businesses are more personable and helpful in aiding to the client’s success by newsletters, updates, mailing lists, latest marketing tips, and how-to success steps, informative articles and message boards. Good content is about keeping the client well informed, providing for their needs and wants and communicating and touching base with them periodically.

Warning, be careful not to overload them. I receive some auto-responder emails from people that send me an email almost every day. That truthfully turns people off and needs to be avoided. They say by the seventh email you have a purchaser and that is true for the most part but if the person has already purchased your product a bi-monthly or monthly newsletter or update letter is sufficient. We want to keep our customers, not drive them away.

Well hopefully these tips have given you some food for thought and will help you in your work at home endeavors.

Blessings,

Beating the Work at Home Blues

by Filoiann M. Wiedenhoff

In starting any new business our hopes are high, our excitement level is off the roof and our expectations are great. We get everything we need to start our business and get it started and then……it’s slow, nothing is happening, at least not yet and we start to feel let down. Perhaps even a little discouraged or disappointed that it’s not happening the way we envisioned it would or worse how the promotional ads had promised. We can’t help it we’re just feeling the blues. We are constantly on our computer trying to do more market research, figuring out what’s the problem and what’s taking so long. Still, it’s slow, nothing is happening, at least not yet.

My encouragement to anyone who is going through this right now is that we understand what you are going through and that you’re not alone. Starting a Businesses or organization takes a lot of work, especially if you are starting it from the ground up. It takes more time and effort than coming into a business that has been running for years. They say that it takes usually on average at least three years to truly get established. It takes a lot of our time and much perseverance. My husband and I planted a church almost three years now and we also started from the ground up. I have to tell that it has been the hardest three years of our lives, but we are now seeing the fruit of our labor meaning we are seeing our hard work come together, people are starting to join and get involved and we aren’t working nearly as hard as did when we first started. Don’t get me wrong, we are still pretty busy but not nearly as busy as we were three years ago. One valuable lesson I have learned and am still learning through this process is that we have to be willing to stick it out, hang in there through the hard times, persevere and keep moving forward and when we do we will see our business or organization grow and flourish, it just takes time. For those of you who may be feeling the blues right now, this is for you, I came up with 4 ways to help you beat the blues:

1. Take a Walk: Whether you work in the daytime or in the evening, take some time out to take a nice walk. Walking releases endorphins that cause the body to feel happier and energized.

2. Take a Drive: Driving always helps me think and relax, especially when I’m feeling stressed or frustrated. Take a nice drive to the beach or mountains and enjoy the ride. A change of scenery is needed sometimes to take our minds off of “stuff”.

3. Take a Break: If you are one of those people who is constantly trying to work on your business, so much so that it’s all consuming. Make a conscious choice and effort to step away from it for a night, a whole day or a few days to be refreshed. A fresh point of view sometimes is all you need.

4. Take a Date: Go out and have some fun. If you are married, have children or a best friend, have a fun night out. Take in a movie and enjoy yourself and try not to take life too seriously. Life is too short not to be enjoyed.

The main point is that starting and working a business takes time whether it is online or offline and all we can do during the slow times is persevere and hang in there and run our business the best way that we can and more importantly not let our business run us.

Do yourself and your family a favor and take some time out and use the slow times to cherish and spend time with those you love because when things start to get busy, you may not have that extra time that you do right now. Hope this helps!

Best Wishes,

Article Writing, Quality as Well as Quantity

by Filoiann Wiedenhoff

If you have you started an online home business then hopefully you have heard of article marketing. It is the single best marketing tool you can do for your home business for little or no money and if you are on a budget as most of us are it’s the perfect scenario.

The key to article marketing is to write content that will interest readers to keep reading your work. To display your expertise as well as provide the reader with information about your product and why they need it or want it.

The hard part in doing this is the other component in article marketing which is that the more you write articles the more responses you get, the more chances you will get people coming to your website and the more people will buy your product.

So how can you create quality content that people will want to read as well as write quantity content that will get your products and your business out there without falling short on one end or the other?

Trust me, I have asked this same question. Here are some tips to get you started in the right direction:

Write Informative Articles: Write articles that will peak readers interest about your product. Information goes along way and learning something that will benefit their success is even better.

Familiarize Yourself with Your Product: It’s much easier to write about something you know. Try the product, use the product and know it well and you will have much to write about. When you know something well you can write faster and easier because you already know what to say.

Write Shorter Articles: Articles really don’t need to be very long so consider writing brief articles that are to the point that are clear and concise and get’s your message across.

Commit a Set Time To Write: Just like any job you have to set a set time for yourself to work and the same goes for writing articles you also need to set a time for writing. If you can organize your time better with no distractions you will be surprised how much work you can put out in a day.

Add Personality: Keep in mind that the person is not just buying the product, they are also buying you. It is a fact that if people like the person that’s selling something they will buy from them just to support them or because they trust them. If you can add some personality into your articles you will get a better response and perhaps a more faithful residual customer too.

I hope these tips will help give you something to work with in writing quality articles as well as quantity. Blessings and Happy Writing!

Finding Your Work at Home “Niche Market”

by Filoiann Wiedenhoff

So what is a niche market? A “niche market” is a specific solution that fulfills a particular problem whether in product or service for a fee and the solution is called a niche market.

Statistics show that people who start a home business doing what they love or have a passion for, are known to stick with their home business over a long period of time and become successful doing it. With that said, in helping you find the niche that’s right for you we’re going to first focus in on three important niche market principles that will help you define your search.

It must be:

1. Personal: It is something you are familiar with, something you love to do, enjoy or have an attachment for. One that best suits you personality and fits your lifestyle.

2. Practical: It is something you have the ability, experience and/or talent to do and one you can see yourself doing realistically over a long period of time.

3. Marketable. It is a service or product that people would be willing to pay money to have and profitable for you to promote on a daily basis.

From these three principles you can begin to make your list from hobbies, past times and passions to skills, experience and talents. There are also other important factors that play into finding the right niche market and that is evaluating how much time, money and energy will you be able to work this particular niche business and at the same time be realistic with your self, looking at what kind of work you want to do and are capable of doing. For example; if you are allergic to animals you most likely would not want to start a dog walking business or pet hotel. (Just off the top of my head)

Take everything into consideration, take some time and think things through and keep in mind the three niche marketing principles to help you narrow your search until you find one or more ideas that are perfect for you. Once you have narrowed your search the next step is to study up as much as possible on your particular niche in free forums, article websites and blogs.

Once you find your “Work at Home Niche Market” you will have purpose and be more focused and motivated in making your home business a success. You can find out more home business information from my website. Happy Hunting!

Your Christian online home based business 6 Tips to Help You Choose the Right Company

by Karen Wolff

Finding the right Christian online business opportunity is a little scary. Just think about it. You’re planning to invest your time and money, and you certainly don’t want to choose the wrong company to help you.

If you do a search online, you’ll find thousands of opportunities just waiting for you to sign up. Where did these all come from? How do you know which one will give you all the tools, help, and support you need to get up and running?

I recently went through this entire process. It can be truly overwhelming without knowing some of the questions you should ask before you make a decision. As a Christian I wanted to work with a company that not only talked a good game, but was able to show me they were an honest company who would truly do what they said they would do.

Where Do I Start?

My first concern was that I had very little experience building a website. I was able to check my email and search for something online, but that was the extent of it. I read countless ads for companies claiming to “build a website in 15 minutes” or “be making money in as little as 24 hours.”

The trouble was….I couldn’t see any backend support. I couldn’t see anything except a template that someone built and now they were trying to convince me this should be the basis for my online business.

What about all the continuous building and changing that happens on a website? Did I have to take a bunch of HTML classes just so I’d know how to do all this stuff?

My second concern was whether the search engines would find me. I remember wondering how the entire process worked and who was going to teach me. There are alot of companies that promise they can help in this area. I just didn’t have a clue about which one to use or how to go about evaluating these kinds of companies.

And then of course, I wanted to know if my business would be profitable. Finding the right niche is a huge part of your ultimate success, or lack thereof. Of course, there is never a guarantee, but at least I wanted to know I was on the right track. I couldn’t imagine where to even start looking for answers about this one.

And the Answer is…

After it was all said and done, I arrived at some very specific things to look for as you’re choosing the right company:

Tip: Choose a company that can handle everything from start to finish, no matter your own strengths or weaknesses. Trying to piecemeal the site hosting and building from one company and then the search engine optimizing from another, and the other things you need like building a newsletter from yet another, will most certainly make your life alot more complicated.

Tip: Choose a company with a proven track record. What kind of results are their current clients getting? Are they willing to show you the number of their sites that are succeeding? You can bet they have an idea about how many of their sites fail and why.

Tip: Choose a company that gives you the tools to build your site that doesn’t require you to have a PHD in website building. There is a tremendous learning curve in the very beginning, so just make sure you’re working with a company that provides the structure to build your site as you learn so you’re not stuck for long periods of time in that learning curve.

Tip: Choose a company that allows all their site owners to talk to each other in an open forum. Check to see how often their forums are frequented. Ask for a guest pass so you can get the real flavor of the company.

Tip: Choose a company that gives you 24 hour/7 days a week, online technical support. There is nothing more difficult than trying to resolve a problem and your only option is to pay some expert somewhere to give you the guidance you need.

Tip: Don’t purchase unless you are very sure about the company’s refund policy. Choose a company that will let you try things out on a trial basis. Get your feet wet and see if the company you’ve chosen is really the one that will help you get where you want to go.

While it’s true that no company can do it for you, it’s also true that you can certainly help increase your odds of success if you choose the right company to help you. Working with a company that is honest and will stand behind you, helping every step of the way, is truly the Christian way of doing business.

Marketing Myths -Home Based Businesses and Network Marketing Programs Revealed

by Pastor Bobby Keating

It is just amazing how much garbage there is on the Internet today. Everybody has the perfect plan for the perfect program that’s going to make me an armchair millionaire. It is simply wonderful how all of these people are so thoughtful that they make me the offer to get rich fast without having to do anything but join their program. They will do all of the work, I will sit in my recliner at home and watch my bank account grow almost out of control!

I will be able to earn a 6 figure income (every month!) and I won’t have to lift a finger or break a sweat! I am so grateful to all of those wealthy and wonderful people who are willing to share all of this fortune with me, for a minimal fee. They will even, if I want, teach me all of their marketing techniques!

Through the years, since the public introduction of the Internet, anyone who has been watching and paying attention has seen literally thousands of ‘make money right now’ programs come —– and go. They all use the same ‘catch phrases’ and hype (which turns out to be a load of bovine fertilizer.) Promising everything and delivering nothing, nada, zilch, squat! (Except for the loss of my time, my effort and my money.) “Fire your Boss!” “Make $10,000.00 in the next 30 days!” etc. etc

There are some very skillful copywriters out there (people who write sales copy for ads and web sites.) Not only can they talk an Eskimo into investing in an ice farm but they’ll teach you how to do the same – for a minimal fee, of course. I am overcome by the magnanimity and overt generosity of these Internet Millionaires.

I decided to do a little research. (This took several months but) I contacted hundreds of these ‘armchair millionaire’ affiliates. These were, for the most part, ordinary citizens with a dream of wealth and happiness who took the bait and signed up for some of these programs. After talking for a while, I found that they had not quite made it yet but that their ‘up line’ sponsor had promised that if they stuck with it and screamed the offer at everyone within three feet of them, they would be rolling in dough in no time.

Most of the marketing techniques that these ‘up line sponsors’ teach are a load of rehashed garbage that just simply does nothing more than keep you busy while they try to get you to upgrade and spend more money. They want you to hound your family and friends and everyone with whom you come in contact to join the ‘program.’ They promise to teach you the latest ‘proven’ techniques for marketing. Some have even made millions promising to teach you marketing techniques that will ‘explode’ you email in box with people anxious to buy from you!

Can anybody relate to this? Have you seen these outrageous advertisements?

The truly amazing part of this is that everyday thousands upon thousands of anxious Web surfers fall for the hype. You see, the majority of these hype-mongers, I mean copywriters, are true experts – at getting you to spend your money. Unfortunately, what they teach you doesn’t work. They do not teach you the truth. Now this does not apply to ALL copywriters. There are some, I admit, who are spot on and truly do offer useful products and services. The major problem is how is it possible to tell the sheep from the wolves? Who is telling the truth and who is coating you with a layer of BF (bovine fertilizer) so thick that you cannot see the truth? How do you separate the wheat from the tares? How do you discern the truth?

It does not take a PhD in psychology to know that everybody can use more money and an easier lifestyle. Everyone wants to spend more time with his or her kids or to take vacations. Everyone wants a better car, a bigger home and enough cash to pay for educating himself/herself or his/her children. These are givens. Most Internet marketers know this and appeal to the web site visitors’ greed and not his need. They think that the average Joe or JoAnne is only slightly above the mental level of a chimp (with enough money to waste on buying their product.)

Well, I said all of that to say this. After all of my years of research, frustration, aggravations, spending ‘hard earned’ money, I have discovered a cold, bone chilling fact. The funny part (the strange not comical part) is that it was right underneath my nose the whole time and I could not see it! (Not to imply that my nose is too big to see over or around!) The ‘secret’ to finding success in any endeavor is NOT luck or chance. It is not even finding the most magnificent product. The secret is ‘diligence.’

No matter what you are trying to accomplish, an improved marital relationship or better parent child relationship or success in business, the ‘secret’ for you to find success in any of these projects is consistency and diligence in studying, thinking, planning and a willingness to accept ‘wise counsel’ before jumping in. If the offer sounds ‘too good to be true,’ you need to take the time to explore all aspects of it.

Diligently study and search out others who have been involved with what you are considering. Educate yourself and seek understanding of everything that will be necessary for you to succeed. There are some wonderful programs on the Internet. There are many opportunities to make a good living and improve your lifestyle. You must take the time and put forth the effort to learning what works and what does not work. Be diligent!
