Business / How To Take Action Without Living In Regrets? by Onlineincome01(m): 9:39am On Dec 30, 2019
What someone could find is that when they look back on their day or their week, there are a number of things that they wished they had done. They could spend hours wondering why they didn't do something and beat themselves up in the process.

The months are then going to go by and one is not only going to punish themselves for what they haven't done and to feel bad, but they are also going to miss out on a lot of things. For their life to change, they will need to do something about what is going on.

An Important Question

One thing that they can do, to make themselves do something, is to ask themselves how they will feel that evening or the day after if they don't do something. So one will have the need to do something and, at this moment, they can focus on how they will probably feel if they let this moment pass them by.

During this time, one will be getting in touch with all the pain that they have experienced before when they haven't seized the moment and taken action. If they can really connect to this pain, they are unlikely to feel very good.
�
A Powerful Force

One is not facing this pain just because they want to feel bad; they are facing it so that they can see that as fearful/nervous as they might feel at this moment in time, they will feel a lot worse if they don't take action. How they feel right now will pass, but if they don't go for it, they will have a critical voice and a lot of emotional pain to sit with.

If they do connect with this pain, they may find that they are actually able to take action. The pain of having to face up to another thing that they regret not doing could just be too much for them to handle.

Another Element

What one can also think about during this time is that no matter how emotionally charged and real their experience is, it won't be long until what they are going through will just be another memory. Therefore, regardless of what takes place, it will most likely be something that will soon fade away.

To really understand this, they could think about the other moments in their life where they felt uncomfortable that are just memories now. At the time, these moments would have been all encompassing but now, they could just seem like experiences that hardly had an impact on them.

Final Thoughts

What this illustrates is how important the mind is when it comes to taking action. By asking the right questions and reflecting on how painful it will be not to do something, one can get themselves moving and make taking action a habit.

One could start on the things that make them feel uncomfortable but not too uncomfortable. Starting small can allow them to see that getting uncomfortable is not going to end their life and make it easier for them to face things that make them feel really uncomfortable.
Business / Discovering The Idea That Will Make You A Milllionaire! by Onlineincome01(m): 6:57am On Dec 26, 2019
We are in a digital world where almost everything is integrated into a single system of the world wide web. We are in an era where we don't have to have a shop to sell our products, an era where we don't have to meet to communicate, an era where we don't necessarily need to follow the traditional door to door method to advertise our products but rather an era where everything is done in a simple and faster way.

With the high rising level of graduate unemployment in Nigeria, I began to think of the way out as I will soon be graduating from the University. Then I recalled listening to the point speaker at the World leadership forum emphasizing the statement "You don't need capital, what you need is an idea". I began to brainstorm about the statement for the fact that I am scared to be an unemployed graduate like the millions who are yet to secure a job.

However, with time, I began to understand that the leading world entrepreneurs never started with capital but rather an idea. Bill gate the richest man in the world never did start the Microsoft with a huge capital but rather his idea, Mark Zuckerberg the Facebook CEO who is also the fifth richest man never start the Facebook with capital but rather an idea, Steve Jobs who is also a Co-founder of Apple start the company to revolutionalize the smartphone industry with just an idea, Jobberman was created out of an idea, Linda Ikejis blog was created out of an idea and in fact, every good business that developed into a multimillion dollars was created out of an idea.

To look further into it, I discovered that capital is easier to get but no matter how huge capital is, without a good idea the capital is a waste or can be lost whereas a good idea is difficult to find and never can it be lost. so the question remains how do you discover the idea of a multimillion-dollar. How do you break from the chain of unemployment in Nigeria? Below are five tips to discover that business idea that will change your life forever.

5 TIPS TO DISCOVER A GOOD BUSINESS IDEA

1. OBSERVATION: To discover a good business idea, one has to observe things and circumstances around him. As you wander in the land of observations you need to be able to identify what people do often, what challenges they face on a daily basis, what they need, how they want their needs to be met, when and where. As you observe an ask yourself all these questions you must be able to identify the way out.

Steve Jobs will often go to the park to observe how people listen to music, Mark Zuckerberg possibly observed what if he and his friends don't necessarily have to meet on a daily basis but rather connect online to gist and share pictures, JOBBERMAN knew people submit their CV and application letter directly but what if they can do it on their behalf.

So the most important aspect of discovering an idea is to observe the market you are interested in, how do they go about doing their businesses, are they anything that needs to be readjusted and many more things.

2. IDENTIFY A PROBLEM

Your observations will be futile and unnecessary if you are yet to identify a problem in the way people conduct their business. Idea can only be realized out of the desire to offer a solution and better services to people. JUMIA and KONGA discovered a problem in marketing, so they create an online market where you make purchases and get it delivered to your doorsteps, if you are yet to discover any problem that needed o to be resolved then you are far from identifying the idea of a multimillion-dollar.

3. OFFER A SOLUTION

Now that you have discovered the problem in the way people conduct their business as an entrepreneur, you must offer a solution that fills that gap or void of unsatisfaction in the customers of such market. This can come by reading books and materials related to that niche of business.

4. MAKE A FEASIBILITY STUDY

Have you discovered that idea you think might fetch you millions, you shouldn't just ventured fully into it but rather make a feasibility study to ascertain if that solution you are to offer is viable. This entails possibly preparing a survey or a questionnaire to hear the views of your potential customers about the service you are about to offer and how they feel about it. You must, however, delink your emotions from the answers you received.

5. IMPLEMENT YOUR IDEAS

This aspect has to do with the financial aspect of your idea. Don't panic, they are a lot of people who will be willing to sponsor your idea if they found it fantastic and viable. You can obtain loans from the financial institutions here (Guaranty trust bank, Access bank, Diamond Bank, etc) here in Nigeria at a minimal interest rate, but all you need is a good business plan.

In conclusion, do you have a superb idea that will fetch you money, you don't have to wait, the time is now. Forget the fact that you need to school and come out with a good class of degree, what is important is the fact that you move out of your financial bondage and experience a world of financial freedom and independence. Remember Bill gate, Steve Jobs, Mark Zuckerberg, and many more business tycoons were dropouts at a point in time but today the world has written their names in gold, you can also achieve the same. Good luck.
Business / How To Get More Fans And Followers On Your Social Media Page? by Onlineincome01(m): 10:43pm On Dec 25, 2019
Followers play a big role these days in making ones social media account popular and profitable. Everyone knows the power of the fans, and the same goes for social platforms too. More followers mean more social presence and that in turn means more chance of increasing one's customers. However, sometimes social media platforms are not for business, in that case, they are for increasing one's presence and make oneself popular by creating great content. in both the cases having a good number of followers is really important as there is a huge competition out there. Being popular on social media can have a lot many benefits as one well known by many, one can earn money by being a part of promotions and also one can get noticed by some of the influential people out there.

Therefore, one should put their attention to increasing their followers, some of the ways that can help are:

Create an interesting profile

Every potential follower when discovers any content randomly, they will reach out and check the profile of the account holder who posted the content. This is why one should make a profile which gives out information about the account holder as well as should have links to the influencer's other works like their website or any other social media account. One should have an eye-catching username and a high-quality profile picture as well. One can also create nice and descriptive bios and use hashtags effectively.

Create good content

Content is the king when it comes to any social media platform. One should always try to post something new and fresh for their audience. Try not to copy someone else's work and always be original with the theme and content. The content should be real and should have the capability to connect the audience to it. And the most important thing is don't be in a rush to post something as by this one may lose their content quality, always give importance to quality and not just quantity.

Be active

Being active on a social media page is very important today. As there are so many social media users and influencers all around it is easy to forget someone and move onto the next popular page or account. If one will be active then they will be visible among their followers and also to the ones who are not following them. Being a regular poster on any social media is always helpful to grab a lot of attention.

Be interactive

Earning followers is not just about posting content now and then, it is also about showing engagement with your already existing followers and fans. Followers will only bring in more followers, so for that, you need to pay attention to your already existing following, so that they, in turn, can act like your campaigners. You can talk to them and hear their suggestions and try to involve them in various profile activities like quizzes, surveys, challenges, etc.
Career / How To Make $6K Monthly On Fiverr? by Onlineincome01(m): 11:46am On Dec 25, 2019
Fiverr was designed to provide users with the ability to buy digital services from an array of world-class providers.

Founded in 2011, it's grown rapidly, with over 8,000,000 "gigs" being bought through the platform in 2015 alone.

Whilst this might sound great, the big question is whether you can make money with it, too.

To answer this, I have found it best to consider the overall scope of the market, and where you're able to make any progress with it...

--

Having spent the past 5 months working with a number of people on the platform, the one thing I have found which determines if someone will be successful is how they're able to position their offer.

For most people - and women are particularly bad at this - they will basically list what they're able to "do" with some examples of previous work.

Perhaps this will work well for high-level photographers, but for everyone else - it's a recipe for disaster.

People want to know how you're going to move their business / life forward, not what you're able to do.

For example, you may be a "world class surgeon", but how does that translate into the type of treatment you can provide to patients? What's your speciality? What have you done before that other surgeons would not touch?

In the Western world, we've reached a time where social media has pretty-much debunked the "faceless business" myth -- people want to know who they're dealing with, and want the very best services to be delivered direct to them.

To this end, when considering what you can do with the platform, there are a number of steps to go through:

--

1. Lead With YOUR Experience

The first BIG thing I found is to lead with your experience.

If you don't have any experience, you need to just say that you're eager to learn - the idea being that people will use your services because they want to help you improve etc.

Every time I've seen someone who's been successful on the platform, they always lead with their experience over everything else.

The best providers on the platform are very specific with what they're offering, because they will always mould it around the expertise they've developed in the "real world".

A big mistake of many different people is to simply try and sell a service because they think it's popular (SEO / WordPress desgin etc) - this is a very BAD way to do things, and will typically inhibit growth as you'll not provide very good results.

Whilst the initial rush of making money might be good, bad customer reviews will kill any aspirations you may have. Thus, it pays in the long run to focus on what you're actually able to do (not what you think people want to pay for).

2. Look At What's Selling

Some things will be more popular than others - whilst you shouldn't "copy" other people's work, it's always healthy to see what's popular & what isn't.

In terms of the way you do this, there are two methods:

Look At Popular Accounts
Look At Popular Products/Services
The first method is to try and identify any popular "accounts" on the platform, and "reverse engineer" how they have been so successful. This typically opens the door to looking at the various popular "markets" through which they've been selling their gigs:
Click onto Fiverr
At the top, select one of the "topics" from the navigation bar
Select a sub-topic (make sure both are fairly popular (Digital Marketing > Social Media Marketing)
From the left menu, select "Level Two" + "Top Rated" from the "Seller Rating" section
Also input at least $100 into the "Price Range" section
Make sure the listings are ordered by "Best Selling" and start clicking on the ones that appear popular
If you find anything that looks appealing, click onto the "profile" of the seller
This will give you an overview of their entire portfolio of gigs
The second method is to look for any products / services which are generally popular. Whilst you should not be generic in what you're offering, you need to be able to consider the "language" through which your audience may wish to communicate.
Click onto Fiverr
At the top, select one of the "topics" from the navigation bar that appeals to your experience
Select a sub-topic which further appeals
Ensure the listings are ordered by "Best Selling"
Scroll through and look for the small number after the start rating
For example, you may have 5 stars + "1k"
The "1k" represents the number of people who've bought the gig and left a good review
It directly denotes the popularity of the gig, and thus whether it's something to consider
As mentioned, both of these methods are only really to be used to gain a "lay of the land" - some base level research designed to give you further ideas as to what's popular on the platform.
3. Create Your Own IN-DEMAND Offers

After doing the above, you need to consider creating an "in-demand" offer.

Demand is a loaded word; the key is that most people simply want to know what you are going to do for them.

The problem is most people will simply try and tell you either what they "do", or what they think you want to hear. This doesn't work.

What works is having a system which allows you to "offer" your services in such a way that people instantly understand the underlying benefits for their business.

For example, one of my Fiverr profiles specializes in computer repair.

Computer repair isn't the most sexy, nor the most abundant market now. Back in the 90's, being a "PC repair" guy meant big money... not in 2018.

Thus, in order to craft an "in demand" offer (because computers are still used - even more than the 90's - just in different ways), you need to go with where the "demand" is:

Worpress repairs
Cloud VPS provisioning + management
Shopify fixes
Now, although these are okay - the BIG issue here is that there's not much demand for them. People don't "want" to buy them.
What people want to pay for are the reasons "why" they're using the aforementioned software packages - traffic, growth + sales.

Thus, you wrap whatever you're doing in the packaging of "growth"...

There's obviously an art to this - if you're able to do it effectively, you're able to attract orders from a huge number of buyers.
4. Understand What People Are Buying

Obviously, people buying a fix / upgrade - but at it's core, you need to appreciate that most people will not be willing to send you money for mediocre service; they want exceptional.

Exceptional doesn't mean "quality" - it means "results".

Thus, when considering the process of working with clients (if you get orders), you need to do absolutely everything to push their business / life forward.

As explained above, things like wrapping the offer in underlying results (for them), going the extra mile to help them understand what you've done or just doing more than expected - if you treat your clients with respect and energy, you'll start receiving decent reviews.

These good reviews are what *should* perpetuate the growth of the service.

5. Ensure The "Back-End" Is Handled Properly

If you want to get into the big leagues, the absolute key is to ensure your business is able to handle increased numbers of orders.

Whilst it may be nice to get 5 new orders, if you want to sustain your momentum, you have to think about what handling 500+ orders will look like.

To this end, one of the best things you can do is focus on how the "back-end" of your business is managed.

Such things as integrating Trustpilot, creating a YouTube channel, Facebook page, Twitter feed, etc are all small things to keep clients in your "loop" (and thus have the ability to continue delivering your "in demand" services at a later date).

In the sales world, it's known as a "funnel" - the deeper the client goes, the more valuable they become.

Obviously, you have to respect everybody's ideas etc - but from a purely pragmatic perspective, you need to be able to consider how you're going to keep "recycling" the buyers that Fiverr brings.

If you do this effectively - which may include everything from setting up a CRM system to integrating email marketing campaigns into your services - you'll end up with exponential increases in sales.

The way you handle this growth is dependent on your experience / temperament - but the core is that business is out there if you're willing to focus on demand.

As mentioned, I earned $2,500 in my first month with my friend on Fiverr - and have since worked on a number of offers across two of my own profiles.

If you follow the above steps, you'll be ahead of 98% of people starting on the platform.

The problem is most people will simply try and tell you either what they "do", or what they think you want to hear. This doesn't work.

What works is having a system which allows you to "offer" your services in such a way that people instantly understand the underlying benefits for their business.

For example, one of my Fiverr profiles specializes in computer repair.

Computer repair isn't the most sexy, nor the most abundant market now. Back in the 90's, being a "PC repair" guy meant big money... not in 2018.

Thus, in order to craft an "in demand" offer (because computers are still used - even more than the 90's - just in different ways), you need to go with where the "demand" is:

Worpress repairs
Cloud VPS provisioning + management
Shopify fixes
Now, although these are okay - the BIG issue here is that there's not much demand for them. People don't "want" to buy them.
What people want to pay for are the reasons "why" they're using the aforementioned software packages - traffic, growth + sales.

Thus, you wrap whatever you're doing in the packaging of "growth"...

There's obviously an art to this - if you're able to do it effectively, you're able to attract orders from a huge number of buyers.
4. Understand What People Are Buying

Obviously, people buying a fix / upgrade - but at it's core, you need to appreciate that most people will not be willing to send you money for mediocre service; they want exceptional.

Exceptional doesn't mean "quality" - it means "results".

Thus, when considering the process of working with clients (if you get orders), you need to do absolutely everything to push their business / life forward.

As explained above, things like wrapping the offer in underlying results (for them), going the extra mile to help them understand what you've done or just doing more than expected - if you treat your clients with respect and energy, you'll start receiving decent reviews.

These good reviews are what *should* perpetuate the growth of the service.

5. Ensure The "Back-End" Is Handled Properly

If you want to get into the big leagues, the absolute key is to ensure your business is able to handle increased numbers of orders.

Whilst it may be nice to get 5 new orders, if you want to sustain your momentum, you have to think about what handling 500+ orders will look like.

To this end, one of the best things you can do is focus on how the "back-end" of your business is managed.

Such things as integrating Trustpilot, creating a YouTube channel, Facebook page, Twitter feed, etc are all small things to keep clients in your "loop" (and thus have the ability to continue delivering your "in demand" services at a later date).

In the sales world, it's known as a "funnel" - the deeper the client goes, the more valuable they become.

Obviously, you have to respect everybody's ideas etc - but from a purely pragmatic perspective, you need to be able to consider how you're going to keep "recycling" the buyers that Fiverr brings.

If you do this effectively - which may include everything from setting up a CRM system to integrating email marketing campaigns into your services - you'll end up with exponential increases in sales.

The way you handle this growth is dependent on your experience / temperament - but the core is that business is out there if you're willing to focus on demand.

--

As mentioned, I earned $2,500 in my first month with my friend on Fiverr - and have since worked on a number of offers across two of my own profiles.

If you follow the above steps, you'll be ahead of 98% of people starting on the platform.

Business / Always Be In The Money Mode!! by Onlineincome01(m): 6:30pm On Dec 21, 2019
Every day you should be doing something to make money. Making money can become a habit, just like not making money. It is important that you cultivate and develop the money-making mindset.

If you have an email list send them valuable and information information on a regular basis. If you are creating content to get links back to your website, create it every day. Do something - an article, a press release, a video, a blog post or comment. Do it every day.

Do something every day to bring in money. Get obsessed and addicted to making money. Put your focus on making money, not TV and other non money making time wasters. Making money absolutely must become your new lifestyle.

If you truly want to be successful and make your living online it is time to sacrifice your normal time that's dedicated to other things, and shift that time and focus to creating cash flow.

Start with where you are right now, start with the knowledge you have right now. Start with the resources and assets you have right now. Don't wait until you know it all because you never will!

Your income is going to come from how much product/service you sell. You have to change your focus and how you use your time.

Full time marketers (or those who want to be full time marketers) focus their time and attention on "making money"... they focus on selling stuff. It's not rocket science my friends.

Too many distributors spend their time on making changes to their website, changes that will have little effect on sales. Don't get caught up in this. Stop worrying about making your store 'pretty' and trying to get everything perfect because you never will! I don't care if you have only one product or 200 products... spend your time promoting what you have!

Focus on those things that will make you money like driving traffic to your website, building your list and selling to your list.

At the end of each day always ask yourself "What did I do today to make more money from my store?" Whether small or large always do something daily to make money. That is the reason you have your store, to make money.

If your store is to satisfy your Ego or impress others kill it right now and find a regular job!

Do whatever you can to get visitors to sign up on your list. Give your list members valuable and informative free stuff like written articles and reports, videos about your niche and videos on using your products, surveys... anything that bonds them to you. You give people FREE and valuable helpful information and they will reciprocate by giving your orders.

Your long term GOLDEN GOOSE to making you tons of money online is building a huge email/newsletter list and making them loyal followers and then SELLING to them!

Like I said, it's not rocket science people, it's plain and simple BUSINESS! Now go and let making money dominate your thoughts 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and 365 days a year!
Career / How To Start An Online Business And Get Floods Of Free Traffic! by Onlineincome01(m): 6:14pm On Dec 21, 2019
I hear people all the time asking, "How to start an online business?"

In this article, you will learn about:

The different kinds of traffic.
Why some traffic sources are better than others.
How to make sure you attract as much FREE traffic as possible.
Traffic sources to avoid like the plague.
The first thing you must understand as you embark on your internet journey is that the internet is all about information. When you do a search let's say on growing tomatoes, it is no fluke that the first page of the search engine response is exactly about growing tomatoes, not cucumbers or a sale on cultivators.
This is exactly the same as any search term. This matching of search terms with the exact best website answering the search term has made some people very rich.

There are many sources of traffic:

Solo ads are ads you pay for people to put your ad on their mailing list. The traffic you get can be lukewarm.
Pinterest pins are free or you can pay for promoted ads. This traffic is tightly focused.
Facebook ads are quite cheap, but you have to really know what you are doing to get them to accept your ads.
Google AdWords are the little ads you see on various websites. They are cost-effective and generally deliver hot to buy traffic.
There are quite a few other sources of traffic, but for this discussion, I am going to focus on FREE search engine traffic.
There is more than 1 reason to understand what the search engines are looking for when assessing your website in order to send you organic (free) traffic. They have many criteria for judging a site.

How many pages does it have on various aspects of the site's main theme?
How long does the average visitor stay on-site? (The longer they stay, the more useful information they must be getting and therefore the higher quality your site must be).
How many inbound links go to your site. The more than other sites link to yours usually means that they view your site as an equal or as an authority site on your subject. (This is pure gold for you)
Does your site sell unknown (maybe risky stuff) or do you offer quality links like Amazon or eBay?
Apparently, they have hundreds of things they look for, but they are hidden in the secret search engine algorithms.
Traffic sources to avoid are those offering tons of traffic for next to nothing. These usually have really low-quality traffic and you stand a good chance of the search engines banning your site. This is bad news.
Some places offer content spinning software for you to create content for your site very quickly. These are to be avoided like Ebola because they take a simple piece of text and "spin it" many different ways. What you end up with is terrible text. The search engines can smell a rat and declare your site a poor place to send free or even paid traffic.

The search engines are all about the quality of the content on your site. They even judge it when you buy traffic. If your site has a poor page ranking, they will charge you more for the traffic they send you than if your site is ranked highly for the quality of its content.

How to start an online business? Always keep in mind what your visitor is looking for.

An excellent example of this was someone who had an excellent site on anxiety attacks. He wrote an excellent eBook on the subject, but nobody was buying it. Its main theme was how to deal with an anxiety attack.

In desperation, he did a survey of his visitors. He found out that what they were looking for was NOT how to cure an anxiety attack, but "AM I HAVING AN ANXIETY ATTACK?"

He rewrote the eBook to satisfy the actual need of his visitors and his eBook is now selling briskly.

Traffic is the lifeblood of your site. Make sure to attract traffic that is looking exactly for what you offer.
