First Step To Making Money Online: Pursuing A Single Idea
When a potential student comes to me seeking advice because his or her business isn’t working, the first two questions I ask are: “What business are you in?” And, “What are you selling?”
And while they usually know what business they are in and what they are selling, the problem is that what they are selling is usually all over the map. So instead of having a single focus, they might have two, three or four!
And when that happens, they aren’t focusing their marketing efforts to make a single idea fly. Instead, they are bouncing around like a ping pong ball from one business to another diluting their efforts or running around feeling crazed not getting anything done at all because they are totally overwhelmed (which is totally understandable)! Sound familiar?
So here’s an example: they might be affiliated with a trust company that they are promoting, plus having a mortgage business, and a realty business. And so while they are all related, it’s not clear to them where they should put their energy.
So it’s important to pick one idea and focus your attention on it (assuming that you’ve done the research and you know you have the passion for it, the skills to pull it off, and a target market who can’t wait to buy what you are offering) And deciding what to focus on first can often be determined by finding out which product or service you offer that your target market is MOST interested in!

What a wonderful post. I spend days on the internet reading blogs, about tons of different subjects. I have to first of all give kudos to whoever created your website and second of all to you for writing what i can only describe as an unbelievable post. I honestly believe there is a skill to writing articles that only a few posses and frankly you have it. The combination of informative and quality content is definitely extremely rare with the large amount of blogs on the internet.
