How to come up with the perfect Business Idea

Start With This Quiz...

The place to start is with topics based on your particular hobbies, interests, and experiences - that's the key to a successful Internet business: Build your website around a topic you enjoy, one you already know something about, and one you're eager to learn MORE about.

You'll have a FAR greater chance of success!

That's because, when you build an Internet business around something you already know about, you won't be wasting valuable time trying to come to grips with your subject.

That leaves you with more free time to concentrate on creating your online business, so you'll have it up and running, and earning profits, MUCH sooner. And if you decide to sell a product like an e-book, you'll be able to create it -- and have it ready to sell -- quickly!

If your online business is a labor of love, you'll be MUCH more likely to stay with it, and give it a fair go. You'll want to create articles, blog posts, etc, because you genuinely have a desire to learn more about the topic yourself, and a desire to share that knowledge.

So instead of being "work," your online business will feel more like your hobby (but one that you can make money with)!

Even better, the passion you have for your subject will show in your site's sales copy, and your enthusiasm should get your visitors excited about your subject too, which will convert into sales.

Finally, when your online business is built around something you know a lot about, you'll be able to talk about it with authority, which is a sure way to establish your online credibility... something that's critical when you do business on the Net.

So before you even think about what you're going to sell online, or who you're going to sell it to, take a good look at yourself:

• What are you interested in?
• What are you passionate about?
• What subject or topic do you have a lot of knowledge about?
• What are people always coming to you for advice about?

And don't go thinking that your interests or hobbies have to be "serious" or life-changing, either - successful websites can be created around any interest imaginable...!

Now, if you happen to be one of those people who claim they don't have any areas of interest or expertise, let us just say this: Wrong! EVERYONE has something they're passionate about, and everyone is knowledgeable about something... ... it may just take a bit of work to uncover it.

To help get you started, here is a 20-question quiz you can use to uncover your passions and interests, ensuring that you start your online business off on the right foot.

We recommend you take time out and read carefully through the questions, and then allow yourself time to answer them thoroughly and truthfully. Do this exercise over a few days and by the end, we're willing to bet you'll have uncovered at least a couple of ideas to get you started on the road to Internet success.

And remember: don't censor yourself! You're just brainstorming here, so there are no "stupid" answers.

Here's the quiz:

1. Do you play any sports? Which ones?
2. If you had a million dollars and a week's worth of free time, what would you do? List the first activities that come to mind.
