Mastering Niche Marketing: A Definitive Guide to Profiting From Ideas in a Competitive Market

Review

“Hi Eric, it’s Terry Telford from TerryTelford. com. I just wanted to write you a quick note to compliment you on your new book, “Mastering Niche Marketing. ” Although I was very impressed with the detail you’ve given, I think you got the title of the book wrong. I would suggest, “If you read this book and apply the principles, you will make money . . . Period. ” Although my title is a little longer than yours! In all seriousness, Eric, this book is a must read for anyone wh

    It’s the BIBLE for Online Marketers! This is available in both eBook and Hard Copy versions – I read the (6-Phase / 12-Chapter / 245-page) eBook. ECONOMIC CRISIS – with our (global) economy in grave condition as I write this – and with JOB losses soaring – more and more people are searching for alternative ways to generate more reliable income sources. Add to this, the power of the INTERNET, and a potential solution emerges. HOME BUSINESS – As a Financial Advisor, Business Consultant and Home Biz Coach – I see employees, professionals and small business owners everywhere liking the idea of running an Online business from home – IF they can get the ‘right’ education plus the necessary marketing skills. And thus, the world of Internet Marketing tied to running a profitable Online Home Biz — enter this new book – - – MASTERING NICHE MARKETING – this gives enormous value to the reader – both beginner and experienced. It’s release is also perfect timing, given the economy. This book truly under-promises and over-delivers. It takes you step-by-step through the whole process of developing a marketing niche. It’s the most detailed, comprehensive and exceptional guide to creating and marketing a product Online that I’ve ever seen or read – bar none. The author removes all the guesswork. In my opinion, this book gives the reader (the potential Online business entrepreneur) a wonderful “foundation” for pursuing a successful Online business from home. There are far too many “failures” in this industry – because of not being able to ‘find’ the right niche – or because of the lack of (or poor) training — this book can change all that as I see it. ERIC VAN DER HOPE – its author, has high credentials behind him. Perhaps more importantly, he gives a list of his mentors at the beginning, including Ted Nichols, Anthony Robbins, Joe Sugarman, Mark Joyner, (the late) Corey Rudi, Shawn Casey, Frank Kern, Mike Litman + many, many other top marketers – a formidable mastermind group. Some observations. . . NICHE MARKET – Eric defines this as “a small but potentially profitable market segment for which it is possible to design and provide a form of custom-made product or specialized service. ” It involves ‘targeting a group’ using information about their specific preferences, which might be a group interested in – exotic vacations – real estate – tennis – gardening, etc. NO BULL – he ‘tells it like it is’ in terms of becoming successful with running any Online business — that there IS a huge market out there where good profits CAN be made — but, that you’ll need MONEY to do it — that you’ll need to take ACTION — that there’s intense COMPETITION — that you’ll need to intelligently ‘identify’ your market, etc. This approach impressed me. SPECIFICS – he goes into extraordinary detail with – “Finding the Niche” — Creating the Product” — “Developing the Offer” — “9 Effective Business Models” — “Top 10 Niche Sourcing Methods” — Case Studies — Explicit Pictures, Screenshots, Graphs, Diagrams, Charts, etc. Amazing. VIRTUAL STOREFRONT – you’ll learn of the requirements for your Online biz (choosing Domain names, FTP accounts, Autoresponders, Merchant accounts, Hosting, Video, Audio, etc + Upselling [back-end products], Advertising, Keywords, Social Media Marketing, Testing, Traffic generation – on and on. These are only tip of the iceberg. :-) BLOGGING – this is the ‘only’ part (Section 2. 9) where I have a tiny disagreement with the author :-) Since developing a BLOG (for profit) can be of tremendous value in these times (as a business by itself) – and whereas he suggests using FREE Blogging platforms (like WordPress. com and/or Blogger. com) – I (personally) strongly recommend using a platform where “you” have the full control. The Free versions give you only limited scope, and they can even be “shut down” on you. The ones where ‘you’ provide the hosting are far superior in my opinion. I’m referring to WordPress. ORG (not the “. com” Free version). WordPress. ORG – although a little more complex – when it’s tied to a good hosting service (like Hostgator. com, or those listed on Eric’s page 91) – is considered the top Blog platform by most experts I believe. ACTION STEPS – what I really liked was the way Eric ended each Phase with a set of specific Action Steps – designed to get you “in production” ASAP. RESOURCES – he provides SO many links to great tools / systems / websites. This only expands an already rich book on the HOW TO of Internet Marketing. It removes the confusion, the overwhelm and the technical obstacles that hinder so many people that are eager to move forward in this challenging but worthwhile and potentially lucrative industry. All in all, a magnificant contribution to the world of Internet Marketing. My thanks to the author for this timely masterpiece – it’s a classic. Without question, I give this a full “5-STAR” rating.

    “Eric, why didn’t you release this manual 13 months ago? Probably that’s a regret I will have all my life! You see, over the last 13 months, I have completely concentrated my energies building niche websites. Although It has been a delightful experience, I made a lot of mistakes and lost a lot of money and time doing the wrong things. Only if I got hold of “Mastering Niche Marketing” 13 months ago, I would have EASILY saved a couple of thousand dollars and around 6-7 months of my time (that I think is more important than the money I wasted). And not just that, I would have got double the results, by putting in half the effort. When I started reviewing this manual I was really flabbergasted with the amount wisdom it contained. This course (yeah, it is nothing short of a complete course!) contains 0% Hype, 0% Filler Content, 0% B. S, 0% “I’ve read this all before”, but 100% pure solid meaty content. I am hooked! It is all about working smarter . . . by taking the right step in the right direction. This book will be your friend, philosopher and guide through your Niche marketing journey. “ Abhishek Agarwal [. . . ]
