I am ready to become an online entrepreneur. I have several ideas and am having trouble picking which would be best. I'm seeking a solid, concrete opinion from someone who's started a successful business. #1: A product (paper, cheap and simple). It's a very simple and unique goal-setting program that would require a monthly subscription. #2: Art lessons. I'm an artist and could build a list around a free lesson, with an upsell for monthly subscribers to join a live feed each week teaching them how to draw. #3: A membership site geared to help mentor youth. Resources for teens and their parents to help the two connect and help youth get set up for life, especially as entrepreneurs.
From my 16 years of experience of working with 100’s of successful entrepreneurs. They're is no real research on the internet to help you discover what business endeavor you would be successful at! If someone is trying to sale you that service its a scam! Becoming successful at a business takes passion, purpose and drive to impact someone or something in the world more valuable than the projected money you expect to achieve.
In order for you to discover the right business model with the highest probability of success. You must first search yourself! I suggest you take an DISC profile test to learn more about your personality. This will help you with shifting your mindset towards success. So you can understand your strengths and weaknesses. Second I suggest you do a MAPP Career Assessment to help you match your skills with a potential profession. Understanding your professional skill set will help you identify what level you want to achieve from your talents. Third you should take a Myers-Briggs Behavior Test to understand how you respond to different environments in different situations. Your attitude and response is the best piece of any business your starts success. You may need to change some behavior-sets in order to be successful in certain business models. Are you willing to do that?
These assessments with an Accountability Coach from a service such as "SMART In Concepts" can help you discover several opportunities, you will be excellent at with a greater chance of success. The best question to ask yourself is…”What do you want to do, which will bring you joy from seeing the user being happy?"
