Hello, everyone, everywhere.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxPastor Bob Thibodeaux here.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxPraise God.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxIt's good to be back.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxFor those of you may not know, I had a small injury.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxSlipped and fell and injured my arm, and that made typing hard.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxAnd when you're working on a computer every day, you just got to take some time off till things work out.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxAmen.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxPraise God.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxBut it's good to be back.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxI'm, like, chomping at the bit right now that I wanted to get this thing done about a week ago and start sharing this with you.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxMaybe a week or so late, but praise God.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxGod's timing is always spot on.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxAmen.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxPraise God.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxWhere are we talking now for the next couple weeks about how to choose a niche?
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxThat's an important topic.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxYou know that.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxThat's probably what I get asked a lot when I'm helping someone just start out, I say, well, what should I go into?
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxThat's not for me to say, all right, what interests you?
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxYou know, what.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxWhat interests do you have?
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxWhat are you trying to accomplish?
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxDo you have background in this area?
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxAll these things go into choosing your niche.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxBut let's go ahead and jump into the nitty gritty of it.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxAmen.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxBecause in today's training, I'm going to dig deep, start anyway.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxDigging deep into this topic, the concern, the issue of trying to choose a niche if you're just starting out, you know, I think for most of you is trying to choose an angle within your niche that you're really trying to ask because you've got an idea of the niche.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxIt's just, what's your angle within the niche?
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxSo we could call that a sub niche if you want.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxI mean, we could call that an angle or a deeper angle within your niche.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxThe reason I'm doing this is I frequently get the question, how do you choose a profitable niche?
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxHow do you choose a profitable angle within the niche?
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxHow do you choose the profitable part of the Internet?
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxWell, folks, to be honest, I've always avoided teaching folks on this because I don't believe there's any one size fits all answer, amen, each.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxIt varies by person to person.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxIt varies depending on the type of niche that you're going into.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxAnd it varies over time.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxIt can change from month to month, year to year.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxAnd so when I do a training like this, I like it to be evergreen.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxI don't want to make it today and next week, I got to redo it again.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxI want to be something that folks can use moving forward, and I don't want to create something that's.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxThat's good for three weeks, right.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxI like to create something that's long term, a year, two years, and then you got to change it up because technology changes and all that.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxBut I get these questions a lot.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxAmen.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxNow, we also know that it's very, very difficult to give you.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxI say it's not a one size fits all answer.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxIt's actually like a tree, if you think about it, where there's three or four branches going off the main topic, it may be as many as five or six branches to give you a solution.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxThe truth of the matter is, if someone comes to me and I do a private call with them and I really dig in, I start asking them a few questions, and I can almost always, no matter what the niche is, I can almost always direct someone to a profitable corner of their niche, really, just by asking a handful of questions and digging in, they're going to be different for every person.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxThey're not the same, but.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxBut being able to really dig in, I'm able to come up with helping them find a solution to that question.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxAnd so the more I think about it, I say, well, if I can come up with it and if I give you enough information, then you should be able to find a starting point to be able to come up with it yourself.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxRight?
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxAmen.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxSo without further ado, let's go ahead and start to dig in, because there's two really two different starting points.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxWhen you choose your own niche, you may be looking for a niche or a sub niche or an angle in your niche, probably because you already have an interest in something that deals.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxThat deals with that niche.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxRight?
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxYou have an interest.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxYou know that.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxThat interest is something.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxWell, it interests you.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxAmen.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxBut you don't know what part of the business aspect of that might be profitable.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxYou don't know what part of the business that people are going to look for information about.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxAnd one of the things that's important for us to absolutely remember and never forget is we can have the absolute best information in the whole world.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxBut if nobody is looking for that information, you're never going to sell any of it.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxNone.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxPeriod.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxZilch.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxI know.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxI've lived that example.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxAmen.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxI don't shut me down when I'm preaching.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxGood.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxNow, praise God.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxSo what you need to learn is what information people are looking for.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxThat is item number one.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxAmen.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxPraise God.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxNow, next time, we're also going to be talking about diving deeper into that, but don't fall.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxAnd I say this with the utmost respect.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxDon't fall for the fallacy of the this is almost guaranteed.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxYou can go on just about any, I'll be careful how I say this.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxYou can go on almost any Internet marketing site and find some reference to almost a guarantee.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxFolks, the only thing guaranteed, as Ben Franklin said, is death and taxes.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxAnd we don't like either one of them, do we?
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxPraise God.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxBut we can say if you do this work, if you go through it with us, if you go through the training here with me, you're going to have a real good idea, a real good idea of what's going to work for you in your niche.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxAmen.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxSo join us next time.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxTill then, this pastor, by reminding you, be blessed in all that you do, stop this recording.
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxWe'd be good, right?
Pastor Bob ThibodeauxAmen.
