There is something that is blocking many people trying to start an online business in a specific niche, it is that they think that nobody is going to pay attention to them because they are not experts.
It is true that when you need help in a specific field you go for the experts, because they have experience and know a lot about that field.
But if you think that you have to be an expert to make money online and this is holding you back, you have to change your mindset immediately or you’ll never make money.
How are you going to make money from a niche if you do nothing? You must take action.
Those who are experts today were not experts when they started, nobody knew them at the beginning…They created their first product, then the second one, the third one and so on. And one day they discovered that the market was paying attention to them.
May be you are not an expert in that specific field but you have skills and knowledge. Then, you have to acquire experience to become an expert – that’s the reason why I recommend to start your business in a field where you have knowledge and you love.
You can make money even if you are not an expert, the point is to position yourself, therefore you have to use your skills and abilities.
The first step is to create a high quality product/service and allow people to get and use it for free…It can be a special report, a free consultation, etc. Remember to capture these people’s names and e-mail addresses and follow up them with high quality newsletters.
Give information, advice and tips for free, you can use forums, blogs, articles etc. You have to keep doing this work consistently.
Generally the experts’ products/services are expensive and not everybody can afford them. If you create your high quality product/service and sell it for a low price you can penetrate the market.
In this way you develop a presence on your market that can’t be ignore, your target market will begin to know you and talk about you. It is word of mouth and it is viral. You’ll see that your name will gain popularity and once you are popular people will pay more attention to you.
Understand that you have to penetrate the market, it is a progressive process and takes time, but you’ll achieve great results.
Put the fear and doubts to rest and start doing NOW if you really want to make money!
Thanks,

Hi PV!
You make really good posts.
It’s true. I’ve just seen a great example for that some time ago. Someone in the internet marketing niche has created a report about membership sites, what possibilities there are to set one up, with different softwares and so. He really has done extensive research and put that all in the reort, so anyone who reads it, is good educated about the possibilities and can make a good decision about how to set up a membership site.
People were very interested in it, and he sold a bunch of copies immediately, and people liked it and gave great feedback.
EVERYONE could have done that, every newbie that’s green as grass behind his ears!
So, it’s really not about being an expert from the beginning, but about looking where’s a problem that I can solve, what questions are people asking, how can I give value.
Cheers,
Andy
