Your Questions About How To Do Share Business Online

Robert asks…
How Do I Learn The Strip Club Or Club Business ONLINE?
I know online forums and websites exist serving the communities of:
(a) strip club fans
(b) strippers aka exotic dancers
and
(c) the business end of clubs and restaurants for owners and managers (non strip club).
These three things are all separate and independent of each other, They have no cross-over nor should they. Each has parts that as a whole would be what I need to find. But as they are, they do NOT address or share the issues and information I need to explore.
I am hoping an online community exists for managers and owners of strip clubs as I am considering joining this industry as a strip club manager. If hired, I will have gotten the job due to outstanding accomplishments not related to strip club managment. I have no “hands-on” experience as a strip club manager and may need to know a lot, quickly.
Any insight or suggestions will be appreciated.
Thanks!

If you have a myspace page there is a group called Strippers Unite. You can just ask questions there, somebody will definitely answer. I’ve seen questions about managing a strip club there before.

How do I put together a business plan for share trading?
I have been trading on and off for the last 7 years, this unstructured trading has not been as efficient as it could have been, this is largely because I have no plan in place to follow.
Having a sound structured plan would help greatly increase the prospect of making a profit. do you have a business plan that you follow for online trading? can you give me an idea of how to put one together?

Jere answers:
I know there are some strategies that hedge funds follow that might make them money. I don’t know if a strategy is going to improve your returns. Maybe you have a strategy and don’t realize it. If want you are doing now isn’t working, then my first suggestion would be to increase your knowledge of the market. Read a lot of books on the market (I like “The Little Book that Beats the Market”). Listen to a lot of conference calls – these always give you insight as to the optimism of the company’s executives. Read a lot of quarterly reports. Read a lot of news stories on the market. News.google.com is a good place. Study what the best investors are buying and selling. For this information, check out http://www.top10traders.com – this is a free site that lets you create a portfolio of stocks with $100,000 in “play” money. Each day the site ranks the best performing portfolios, so you can see how your picks perform compared to other investors. You can also read posts on investing from the best traders, as well as share your own investing ideas. There is also a charting feature , so you can see how your portfolio performs compared to the S&P 500.

Maria asks…
online wish-list business… can it be successful and how?
I am in the process of starting an online wish-list business where you would be able to make a wish-list of any gifts you want for any occasion… birthday, wedding, anniversary, and so on. Once a person makes this list of gift ideas… they would be able to send an e-mail invitation to any friends or relatives. This would be a free service but the question is how do I make money doing this? Maybe arrange some kind of partnership with local stores to advertise on the website? Does anyone have any ideas? I am also open to any other similar online business ideas if anyone would like to share them with me. I am a web designer myself so I plan to do all this on my own… the ideas are the hard part.

Jere answers:
If it is free, the only way that you can make money from it is through ads. You should also consider, running google ads for other types of ads that you are paid when someone clicks the ad. I think it is a poor business model to offer this as an entirely free service. As a business owner you must make money somehow and unless you have advertisers that are already lined up to pay for ads, you will be hemorraging money. Problem is that advertisers only want to advertise where there is already proven traffic of their target audience.
Good Luck!

Richard asks…
What online business idea should I choose?
I really want to make six or more figures online. I have a few online business ideas but I am not sure if you think any of the ideas are profitable and could make me six or more figures a year? The online business ideas are….
Idea 1. The first idea is a website where I sell office chairs. I would get the office chairs from a dropshipper and drop ship the chairs, or I would get them from a wholesale company and ship them myself. Since many home businesses are starting, more people are buying office furniture for their home business. Office furniture is a billion dollar industry. I heard of a kid named Sean Belnick who grosses 24 million dollars a year from selling office chairs online. I know there is some competition in this industry, but not too much. Do you think this online business idea could make me six or more figures a year?
Idea 2. The second online business idea is a website on songwriting. The website would contain a ton of content through articles, how–to‘s, and reviews on the topic of songwriting since I have a lot of knowledge about the topic. Once I get traffic, I would ad some ads, google adsense, and relevant affiliate products on my site to monetize. Do you think this online business idea could make me six or more figures a year?
Idea 3. This idea is cool, but since there are already sites that do this, it could be challenging. The third idea is a website where users can buy, trade, and sell gift cards for money. I would make profit by charging the seller a small fee if their gift card makes a successfull sale. Do you think this online business idea could make me six or more figures a year?
Idea 4. I like this idea a lot. The last idea is a website where users who sign up for free can submit their origninal songs (that they must have rights to). Other users can listen, rate, comment, and share songs with friends. Submitted songs can be entered into the top 10 list by having the most hits and best rates. Users can also friend eachother and chat in a chat room. Say a user submits a new song, he can choose the option to have all of his friends notified about the song. So basically the site is an online community where users can listen to new music, share, comment, post original songs for feedback, and communicate with other members. The site would be free to use, but I would make money from ads. I am getting a quote from a web design firm right now, but I would probably be paying 5-10k for this site to get up and running. Do you think this online business idea could make me six or more figures a year?
Out of all the ideas, I think Idea 1 is the most profitable since I would be making $100 dollar profit per chair, but I want to hear what you think. Do you think any of these online business ideas could make me six or more figures a year?

What is your first sense when you meet some program that promise you to give money just for joining with no other efforts? “It is too good to be true” – is that? In prevalence it IS too good to be true.
The Internet is overload with all kinds of on-line business stuff. There are many usable programs either. But as far as I know by experience there aren’t way to earn money without investing your efforts. Firstly you must learn a lot to succeed in that field. Secondly you must implement what you learn. Without these main things every program that you join will seem scam.

James asks…
starting my own online business, need some pointers?
i am going to start my own online business(like everyone else out there! lol). i would like to sell my homemade natural soaps and bath products, as well as cloth baby wipes, menstrual pads, and anything else i fancy.
should i buy my own website and sell items that way, or sell them on ebay or hyena cart? i like the idea of having my own website to myself, but it costs about $30 a month…at first i might lose money, but if i keep up with promoting and build a good customer base, i’m sure it will pay off.
should i maybe start with a hyena cart type account at first and see how well i do before venturing entirely on my own? the purpose of my business would be of course, profit, but also because i love doing my hobby and want to share it with others.
please give me your input! thank you. 🙂

Jere answers:
Hi. It is a fair idea. If I were you, I would first try to spend a week or more browsing through topics on strating your own business and the like at this US Gov web site http://www.sba.gov
It should give your idea a better form and will trigger some thought process as to whether you are ready to venture into that. I will refrain from comments on hyena carts, e-bays and the like as these are just conduits or, if you wish, technicalities to conducting operations. The major challenge with the online business is getting noticed. Hope you will find some decent answers at the web site I have recommended. Good luck
