Do A Rapid Search For Music, Games And Dvd’s

Aug 26th, 2007 Posted in Eclectic Advertising | no comment »

Too bad I didn’t find this site RapidSearch before I purchased my last dvd because they have a collection of music, games, and dvd’s all organized in alphabetical order and below wholesale. They also have software at reasonable prices too.

I could have bought Wild Hogs new for $11.88 and I paid $20 something and that was at Walmart prices. I didn’t think it was worth what we paid for it. I was expecting it to be hilarious and we wanted our own copy so we could watch it whenever, but it was only mildly entertaining and hokey.

We like to ride on the weekends and we normally watch anything with motorcycles in it. I found 4 Orange County Chopper dvd’s and it’s one of our favorite shows because we love to watch them build the bikes and we think Paul Jr is cool. The old man is irritating though.

They were at a bike event we went to a couple years ago and people stood in line for hours to get an autograph. I like them, but not that much.They had their cool choppers on display and we enjoyed seeing those.The dvd’s are reasonable priced so I guess I’ll ask Bill tomorrow if he wants me to order them.


So You Think You Want To Be An Entrepreneur ?

So you think you want to be an entrepreneur? I know that’s what I wanted to be and I have worked so hard,This is my 4th year and I’m still here, not with blogging I’ve only been blogging since Dec, but selling info products and doing affiliate marketing. I have taken advise from many gurus and I’m still not wealthy. I had so many dreams and I’m sure you do or did too, but you do realize that there is a minority that actually creates real wealth.

I have tried visualization and other mind psychs, I know that stuff works, but sometimes it happens way down the road and some people get beat up pretty bad on the Internet and lose their dreams of being an entrepreneur and go back to that ho-hum life of 9 to 5 just to pay their bills.

Usually when we start an online business we are thinking about making money of course, but do you have other motives, such as trying to fill an actually need and help people? People that are trying to sell you a system are supplying a need and that would be yours, because your desperate to make money, but the only people making money with these systems are the people selling them.

Have you done any research into any niches yourself or are you just taking someone elses word for it and buying their products hoping you’ll get lucky?
If you can come up with a product idea and know how to market it then you could make money, but it will have to be something unique in my opinion because it seems like the market is so saturated with the same products over and over with different packaging. If you can fulfill a need for your customers then you will make money.

It takes more than just the desire to make money, it takes a plan and goal and it is not smooth sailing just because you decide your going to do. It takes focus and determination and staying power. Many people throw in the towel after a few months because it didn’t go the way that they thought it would. You really do need to be focused and ignore all the business opportunities, money making programs and all the scams and hype that is advertised.

Believe me many people are disillusioned every day. It’s everywhere just visit any forum and all you hear are the problems people are having trying to make money from the Internet. So if your starting a business just for the money do not believe the hype of getting rich over night because it just doesn’t happen.

Being an entrepreneur takes a lot of time and effort. The minority of the truly wealthy did not achieve that over night, but most started when it was young and it seemed to be easier then. I often wish I had started in the beginning when everything was new, but I had no desire to even have a personal computer until 1998.I’m still catching up on obsolete stuff, but now a days, (just check your in-box) what’s hot today is cold tomorrow.
