    “This is actually something a lot of people struggle with on the Internet. In fact it could be one of the main reasons many newbies get frustrated and quite even trying to succeed. What I’m talking about is when people go to shallow in a niche and too broad.

    I blame all the so called gurus for hyping the system up. Nothing can be done with a click of the mouse and an Internet business is still a real business. Depending on how you look at it… doing this will take work, but most of the work you do is becoming the expert… it gets much easier after that.”

    “Yes, the Information Age is dead. We stand at the cusp of a new era. We used to live in the Information Age, but you know how it goes when everyone jumps on the bandwagon. Too much of a good thing became a bad thing. I know you feel it. We both know that everyone is glutted with more information than we know what to do with. You surf the web and there is page after page of information, right? But how do you sort and sift through it all and solve your problems? How do you get what you need quickly?

    We used to want information, but now we want something better. That is why we are at the dawn of a new age. The Recommendation Age. People don’t want information. They want solutions to their problems, and that means they need information filtered through the expertise of someone who has gone before them. And that’s going to be you! You will write your book and become a noted expert in your field.”

    Read this article from The Buzz.

    “Musicians develop their own labels for many different reasons. My reason is partly because of a challenge I took on at a young age, to take what I was told was an unmarketable instrument, the violin, and create music that expressed emotions, touched hearts, and ultimately, sold. Whatever the reason for creating their own labels, musicians sometimes forget the advantages they hold and focus instead on the multitude of challenges.

    As a gentle reminder to artists as well as their potential customers, I’m sharing my personal favorite reasons why I enjoy having my own label, and why music lovers should consciously choose to buy music from independent labels.”

    “The last thing an expert will ever call themselves is an “expert.” Rather, they will tell you that they learn something related to their line of work every day, particularly when providing a service or applying knowledge they have gained throughout their career.

    The key to gaining recognition as an expert is not just knowing the right answer, but also knowing how to utilize the resources available to obtain the right answer. An expert can always be relied upon to use sound judgment and persevere in the face of mounting challenges.”

    Read this article from Get Niche Quick.

    “Back in the early days of the web, it was commonplace to submit your site to thousands upon thousands of search engines.

Some companies charge you a fee to list your site on these search engines, but even then, there’s no guarantee you’ll be listed – much less for the niche keywords you want.

    So what’s the solution? You can have the search engines come to you.”

    “When it comes to marketing your services, two facts hold true.

    One is, when things are important to people, they buy — or at least attempt to buy — from a recognized expert.

    So why don’t more people market themselves as experts? It’s simple. It’s only because they do not believe themselves to be worthy of the title.”
