Hi Guys,

I hope you’re all well today and I wanted to share with you a big change that I am making towards my own personal online business and I am already putting the jigsaw pieces in place to what I believe is going to be an incredible journey over the next year.

Yes you heard me right ‘THE NEXT YEAR” that’s 2009

We all know there is money to be made from the web but how many of us really make any significant money or even money that could let us give up our day jobs???

I bet if you are reading this then you can feel where I am coming from.

Well, to be honest i have had enough of just doing something just for the sake of money, I sat with my wife a couple of nights back and said to her “Darling, I am going to transition away from the business I am in now and move into online publishing” and she said “WHAT!!!, but haven’t you tried this before?” ” I know you’ve made some money but not a lot”

And you know what she is RIGHT!!! I have not made a lot of money online and recently I have found out why…………….. because I was treating it like a hobby and not a business.

So right now I am putting together a budget and a business plan for this new online publising business and I will be sharing my successes, failures, mistakes and triumphs here on the blog and I hope you come along for the ride.

So what are my goals??? Well I have thought about this and here goes in simple format.

“I will be developing and promoting my own NICHE PRODUCTS and then turning subscribers into members of different types of membership and continuity sites” pretty simple Ehhh.

The reason I am choosing this model is that it makes simple sense. Sell Once - Get Paid Multiple Times.

So my aim is to set up 5 of these sites in 2009 and then add more in 2010 and 2011.

I am currently in the research and set up phase for this business and am doing this on  a shoestring budget so it will be interesting to see what I can achieve.

My ultimate goal is that within one year I will have proven both to myself and to some of you guys that this can work for anybody and when I have done that I will produce an online coaching programe to show others how to do it as well.

To be honest I am sick and tired of buying all different types of products about internet marketing for them to not really show how to build a business.

I hope you enjoyed this post and the openess in which I have written it.

I look forward to your comments

Richard
