You can’t just “throw up” a website! Not if you want it to pull in visitors and build a highly profitable online business. You need to think it through, very carefully.
You need to ask yourself…
Who are you talking to?
What are your sales messages?
What do you want the visitor to do?
How easy is it to pay you and complete the order form?
Get this wrong and you’ll fail, badly.
But follow me and it’ll be easy for you to create your best website ever!
So, what’s the bright idea?
That’s it - that’s where we begin … you Need a Bright Idea!
Take a look at the “Easy” brand www.easy.com. It’s a simple bright idea around which an impressive business empire has been built.
And coming up with your next bright idea suddenly got a lot easier!
Here’s how.
You simply follow these 5 steps…
Step 1: DEFINE your idea. Instead of just asking, “How can I make money?” ask: “How can I make money with this product, selling to this target audience in this type of environment?”, be as specific as you can.
The more details you can have the more likely you’ll come up with a solution that answers question. Half the game is in figuring out the question that you want answered.
Step 2: GATHER as much information as possible about the subject of your question.
This step is crucial because this knowledge spawns new ideas as you begin to discover lots of different interconnections.
A big key to your success is to continuously question your question! Sometimes you only get a few “half ideas”, but just write them down no matter how crazy they may seem.
Allow your mind to fit the connections together. It can sometimes take a while, but stick with it.
Step 3: DROP the whole subject and put the question you’re asking out of your mind!
Let your subconscious take over. Do something you enjoy that stimulates your mind and emotions. Put on some music, go to the movies - just get away from the question.
Step 4: AMAZINGLY, out of nowhere your “bright idea” will suddenly appear. It’s likely to come to you when you least expect it, perhaps when you’re taking a shower, or washing your car. It may even occur in the middle of the night, so be ready with a notepad and pen!
Step 5: FINALLY let’s put your idea under the spotlight.
Maybe your idea isn’t as great as you first thought. Don’t worry, just talk it through with other people and make any changes that are needed to alter your idea so that it answers your original question. And that was: “How can I make money with this product, selling to this target audience in this type of environment?”
And there it is - 5 simple steps to a bright idea for your next big selling website! Let me know how you get on.
