Starting an online service is a great idea to generate recurring residual monthly income for any internet business owner who is worried about "how do you make it happen again next month?" Before we get to what the best services can be and how to start a service, we need to eliminate some important formalities.
IS YOUR IDEA LEARNED TO LOVE IN CASH?
What I mean
is whether the service idea of Online
detailing services you
are thinking of or an idea you found online or through a friend lends itself to
repeatability. Will it be stable in fluctuating consumer requirements? Can you
wash, rinse and duplicate your work for the same or new clients and get paid
regularly?
Answering
these questions should give you a better idea of the sustainability of a service
you might be considering.
·
Is
there a built-in need for ongoing support? Can you collect an amount regularly
as a utility bill and make the consumer willing to allow it? [It should NOT be
that once you have solved a particular requirement, they no longer need it].
·
Are
there a large number of people who need this service available online? If so,
are they easily accessible and are they willing to pay for their expertise?
·
If
consumers are available online, are there services in the same industry that
work well? [Do you have competitors? ONLINE COMPETITION IS GOOD.]
·
Are
your consumers desperate for a solution / service? When they come up to you,
will they be willing to give it a try or will they see its price and try to get
dirty and solve the problem themselves? [Your price must be reasonable for the
service you will provide].
·
Are
you really interested or will the service get boring after 3 months and make
you want to quit?
If you
answered positively to the questions above, then you are in a position to start
setting up an online service and making it successful. These are some of the
most popular online service models:
continuity information or coaching
This is
about self-help services. The most popular niches are dating advice, dog
training, income generation, health, fitness, nutrition, and sample trade (such
as model train exchanges, golf swings, etc.)
You can be
the expert advisor yourself OR go to interview sites where experts post their
names to be interviewed. You can talk to someone in the niche your service is
in and even BUY AN EXPERT. He could be the face of your service while handling
web setup and marketing. Then generate cheap e-books and audio training and
sell them at the right price.
Outsourcing and Freelance Services
You may need
to hire some programmers of indusdesignworks
beforehand for this. Don't worry, you don't need a lot of money. You need
brain. Most freelance online jobs require content journalism, sales copy
writing, or software assistance. BUT, these are not all skills that you have to
jump with. Oh no. What you need is a PORTAL that you can easily manage.
There are
tons of freelancers sitting at freelancer.com who are fed up with their pay
schedules full of irregularities and the uncertainty of income. This is the
result of the nature of independent programming and design. Find a couple of
good ones and come to terms with them.
