I've been reading a lot of posts here and there is so much interesting stuff on here, I hope I can get something out of all I have read, and I hope I can help some day too.

Here is my question. I live in South America, I'm Bilingual, lived half my life in the UK.

I feel really strongly that there has to be some kind of niche for Spanish speaking people. If you google "how to make money online" you get billions of results.
But if you google that in spanish, the N°1 website is absolute RUBBISH! There doesn´t seem to be any real Guru on making money in the spanish language. Maybe here is one niche?

Somethings I ask myself for example. Do people in Spain, Mexico, Brazil etc use paypal? I know for a fact where I live very few people use paypal, there just isnt the culture, people dont trust, or simple dont know how.

I posted a thread in another section. I basically but mobiles phones and resell them, and I make a 40%-50% profit. This is fine, good money regarding time invested/profit. But I want more!


Well those are some of my thoughts, anyone have any ideas, or maybe would like to partner up on something, I think I could be someone ideal for getting at the hispanic population.

Cheers,

Just found your forum! Looks like a great place!

I just finished a project I've been working on for years! I finally have product in my hand and I feel I'm at the fork in the road. That leaves 3 options and since I found a group of small business people like me, I want to see what you would do!

I created a unique way to play a musical instrument. The idea was unique enough to receive a Patent. Early versions and concepts were very pricey! My current and best versions are right where I want them to be! It only took 10 years to get here!

So, I have a guitar and bass guitar "novelty" product . It will retail $9.99 at music instrument and guitar stores that most city's have. There are also large chains like Guitar Center and and a few other big music instrument retailers. I now see places like Walmart, Best Buy and Target carrying inexpensive guitars and accessories. My target market ranges from 15-65. My system will work with over 11 instruments. I have completed the bass and guitar versions to date.

What do I do? I have a software program that makes learning how to play an instrument easy, placed in great looking packaging. We also have a few unique features that makes it really fun!

With Guitar Hero and Rock Band everywhere, all these people will hopefully make the switch to a real instrument, either way the topic is hot! I got what they need to learn for $9.99. You can get many things online for free, but these stores have to have products to sell! it's that simple! I've got cool inexpensive learning products and they have cool inexpensive instruments. Perfect match!

I took earlier versions of my product to GC HQ many years ago and the guy I met with introduced himself as the guy who's going to chew up my product and spit it out. They ended up liking my stuff and said they would be glad to carry my products. Plus they gave me a few few ideas that would be great today!

I have many ideas on how to approach this, but I want to do it the smart way, not the hard way! I'm a one man band, so let's chop it up!

Any input is welcome!!!

The reason I say January is because I don't want to have to deal with business taxes for my 2009 tax return. The other alternative would be just to wait until January to file everything.

I started up a web design business a few months, went quite well, but I wasnt really interested in it, and I decided it wasnt something that I wanted to further expand.

My passion is people and merchanting.

I want to setup a business that sells nightlife products at venues / close to venues. Id be selling things like: glowsticks, led necklaces, shutter shades etc.. all low priced decent profit margin items.

I also will be setting up a website for the business that will allow people to not only purchase from me when im out but also purchase for delivery over the net.

My main objectives would be to get some sort of deals with local clubs so I can setup a stall of some sort at the entrance desk's of the clubs, where people would be able to buy the products before going in.


If you have any ideas/criticism etc.. I'd love to hear it all.

I was serving an MNC till recently and later left my job to join my husband's venture. I am the technical lead in our firm. But I feel I am still stuck in an employee's mindset! How do I disincentivise/incentivise myself for working in our organization? I don't take a salary, there's no question of a promotion/demotion and I can't be kicked out! How then does one ensure that I work in the best interests of the company? ]]> Have a business question?
