Hey guys,
I am starting this thread to track progress on my online business journey. I have joined a few IM forums, now it's just a matter of putting what i learn into practice. I know there are many guys on this forum who have similar aspirations as myself.
To clarify, freedom is my ultimate goal. Geographical, financial, And time freedom.
With that being said I am no expert. I am not a coder, quant, or affiliate wiz....I am a regular dude who is ready to take charge of his life. At the same time I have no expectation of over night success, I am ready to fail and fail again with the faith that I will learn something new each time.
Perhaps there are other guys in the same boat...feel free to join the thread.
So what is my current project? Well, I am currently leaning between two models. I would love to hear from those guys with more experience....the models I have zoned in on are niche sites and e-commerce. From my research I have found that niche sites can be very time intensive and sometimes see no return if your SEO is off.
I have chosen whitehat (legitimate offers) models because I believe the long-term ROI is significantly higher.
On the other hand e-commerce is quite scaleable, but comes with the challenges of customer service, fulfillment, etc which might be a bit much for beginners. I am rambling at this point....i'll keep you guys posted.
"You cannot navigate a stationary vessel"....this is a quote that has helped me. Perhaps it will help another start their journey as well.
