Nick Calder and I recently launched the niche show to address a very specific need in the online business community…
How to pick a niche and see it through
You might be in the same boat as I was a couple years ago when it comes to niche selection. How do you pick something that will be successful? How do you know if it will be? How do you drive through setbacks and keep on rolling? Nick and I have experienced all of this and we’re out to share it with you.
We also regularly interview people who have JUST made it over that hump and are making money online. We’ve got some great interviews posted or in the can for upcoming episodes. Who better to talk to about how to get over that first and real hurdle of earning income online? We’ve got some really great stories to share, so stick with us!
Cutting Through Hype
Nick and I are natural skeptics. We participate as consumers of “Gurus” and other information marketers focused on the Internet Marketing space because there, in among the hype, is useful marketing information. We’ve all spent way too much time in among the BRIGHT RED HEADLINES and insanely long sales pages just like you. What we try to do in the Niche Show is cut through that hype and talk about what is absolutely necessary and fundamental to getting your business launched.
We Are Selling Nothing
We have no information products. No list. No nothing. This is just a podcast about Online Business. Surprised?
We have no designs on being gurus of Internet Marketing. We simply want to present a skeptical, valuable and entertaining message without hype and shilling.
It’s a refreshing view on a sometimes shallow and self-serving topic. If this sounds like a view that interests you, please visit our new Online Business and Internet Marketing Podcast, The Niche Show.

@CADmeum Thanks! The show’s a blast to do.
We have actually 2 shows in the bag and being edited right now.. They’re a pair of really great interview shows with people who are in the process of making it happen. Cool stuff, but some tough editing and we had problems getting them out the door as a result.
Anyway, no worries.. we’ll have another one up in a few days!

Shaun. Looking forward to this site. My wife and I love the design of your LearningIndonisan.com site.
Would love it if you could post a little more on how you secured traffic, converted to sales and how long it took you.
Thanks!
Jeff

@Jeff. Thanks! I’ll definitely use this blog to discuss those topics. I won’t be speaking about the exact sites, or other specific traffic sources, but I can definitely speak about the methods behind it. Nick and I will also discuss a lot of this over the course of The Niche Show if online business podcasts are your cup of tea.

Hey Shaun– just heard you on the 5/14 episode of IBM. Thanks for sharing your expertise, it’s so helpful to those of us trying to narrow down our list of possible niches!
