ID 10019186 300x199 Why It is so difficult to make money online for some people when it seems so easy for others

Possibly the most “relatable” story across the Internet is the one of the online entrepreneur who has tried many different ways to make money but he or she hasn’t made a dime yet.

The goal of any business is to satisfy people’s needs and wants. ID 10069215 300x300 How to Know What People Want

One of the most difficult and yet more critical tasks as a business owner is to know what your customers want.

I don’t know you, but in my case, I can’t read minds, so I’m always looking for ways to stay in touch with my audience and find out how to help them.

You can ask them directly, you can send them surveys, you can check your Google or Clicky stats to see what people look for in your blog, etc.

There are endless ways, but today I’ve stumbled across the perfect one. At least the most creative and simple of all.

It’s a website called 43 Things. Just click the link and visit the site. You will find out, for free and immediately, what people want.

It’s not magic. It’s much more simple.

You won’t regret it. I promise.

 

P.S. It’s funny that 957 people want to become ambidextrous. I didn’t know people were interested in such thing. Maybe because I was born ambidextrous icon wink How to Know What People Want

I haven’t posted any article for a while. I could say the reason is because I’ve been very busy, but long time ago I promised myself I wouldn’t use that as an excuse anymore.77900z7kndyjvnm 300x199 Purpose and Repurpose

Besides, the real reason why Optima-Lifestyle has been so quiet is that I have lost focus. At this point I don’t even know what this blog is about. I mean, Optima-Lifestyle was born with a very clear focus: to help online entrepreneurs to stay motivated, especially during rough times  -which, unfortunately, are common when you start your own business- and overcome their fears and self-limiting beliefs.

No more B.S. Nobody will give you the power

by Cristina Ansbjerg

You can’t change the things that happen around you but you can change the way you feel about them. The last couple of months have been probably the hardest in my 32 years of life. And what matters most, honestly, things are not going to work better in the next months. I’m a family person. [...]
