Don't do it *just* for this...
As you probably know, I'm conducting a boot camp in November where I am going to give attendees a blueprint for turning their passion into profits.
For the people who don't know what their passion is, we are going to help them uncover it.
***BUT***
What I won't be encouraging people to do is to*just* start a business because they think it will make them mucho "dee-nero." Selecting a business *just* because of the profit potential is not the formula for long term success and fulfillment.
Notice the emphasis on the word *just."
You also can't start a business just because you love to do something. If there is not a market for what you are selling, then you are going to struggle.
The BEST combination is to do something you love that there is a market for. This means that you might need to "twist", "turn" and reshape what you love to turn it into a profitable business. Here's an example of what I mean.
Let's say that you love golf. Your dream job might be to be a professional golfer but if you shoot in the low 90's, the odds of you making this dream come true are slim. But what about opening up an online golf store or starting a golf information marketing business where you travel around the world playing the best courses and writing about it? (Don't laugh. There is a show on TV called the "Thirsty Traveller." This guy travels around the word and drinks!)
So figure out what you enjoy and then think about how you can turn that into a full or part time business. Now you are on your way to success.
If have a already turned your passion into profits, what is the single best piece of advice you would give someone just starting out? Post your answer to the blog.
Kick butt, make mucho dee-nero!

PPS: The other day, I was speaking with Bill Glazer during the Dan Kennedy Sales Seminar which I spoke at. We were discussing the best businesses people could start that could make them a ton of cashola in the shortest time possible. Bill reminded me that consulting/coaching is by far one of the best businesses for folks to start. If you want to discover how to make an exceptional living as a consultant, then go to:
