How to Choose a Profitable Niche for Your Blog – The Dos and Don’ts

In my last post, I talked about how to start a blog and make money from it. There I shared the story of how I got into blogging, and what can be done in order to make your blog a sustainable source of passive income. And while that post is quite informative already on its own, I believe that one of the discussed topics in it deserves more attention. That topic is “how to choose a profitable niche for your blog”.

How to Write a Sales Letter That Sells: Your Quick Copywriting Guide

If you have decided to take the online business path, like it or not, you will have to learn how to write a sales letter that sells.

But copywriting is not only for those that are trying to sell. It’s actually a lot more than that. Effective copywriting is beneficial in absolutely any message that you are trying to get across, the goal of which is to get your audience to do something.

Maybe you want your audience to click on a particular link in your email, call a certain number that you have provided, or maybe you simply want to grab their attention and teach them something about a product or service. All of this can be achieved only if you know how to write sales letters effectively.

The reason why copywriting is usually thought of in the context of selling is because that is where the difference between a good and a bad sales pitch can be seen most.

Working Hard vs Working Smart: Learn to Make Real Progress

For every entrepreneur out there, it is common knowledge that in order to achieve something, you must work your ass off! Of course, this could be said more softly, but it wouldn’t get across the image of how much work your dreams really require. Any “entrepreneur” that tells you that you can make big money without much work is lying to you.

Shipping Products to Amazon FBA: How to Choose a Freight Forwarder

In this post, I want to talk about shipping products to Amazon and how to choose a freight forwarder that’s worth your money.

I always say that selling with Amazon FBA is a great business model if done correctly. It’s fairly easy to do, it’s profitable and you can quickly scale the business if you have the means to do so. But what I love most about Amazon FBA is that it’s a passive business. 

Most of the actual work happens only when I research products and get my listing up. Other than that, I put in the minimum amount of effort. I can check the Amazon seller account every couple of hours and see my products being sold and money coming in, while I didn’t lift a finger to make it happen. A truly incredible time we live in…

That being said, just like with any other business out there, difficulties and problems may arise at any given moment.
