Super-Fast $$ Brainstorming Tip

Published: Fri, 12/26/14


 
You need a variety of revenue sources to increase your profit potential and better serve your market online. With only 5 full days left in the year, I imagine you're busily planning out your "profit strategy" for the New Year. If not, you should be. ;-) And you'll LOVE this quick, easy tip!

Here it is:

Go to Google and type in your main keyword or phrase. For example, I have a low carb blog so mine would be "low carb". Next, click the Shopping tab across the top. If you don't see it, click "More" then choose Shopping.

This is a super fast way to find tons of product ideas in your niche!

You may find products to recommend as an affiliate, merchants or brands to work with on paid campaigns, or even creative ideas for product creation.

Next, to go Amazon and do the same thing. :)

Get creative and try a variety of keywords or phrases relevant to your niche or market. You never know what you'll discover!
 
 
 
This is even a great way to find fun social media updates. Whether you share a "weird find" or share a product they might love, like this example from my Facebook Page today:

Here's another example, just for fun & engagement (not monetized):

* Engagement is just as important as monetization! ;-)

Etsy has an affiliate program: https://www.etsy.com/affiliates and several of the tee's on that page would be fun to recommend on my low carb blog. However, their affiliate program is not open to US Residents (??). Is that a loss? NO! I'll simply contact the merchant and see if they want to JV with me to recommend their products to my audience. :)
 
Bingo! See how easy that is?


I'll leave you with that for now, and let you browse through the results and brainstorm a bit. Then come join us on Facebook and tell us the coolest, weirdest, neatest (etc) thing you found to share or recommend to YOUR readers:
