So what is a niche?

By definition, a niche is a small slice of a much larger market. Because niches are small (sometimes tiny), many marketers won’t bother with them. That means there is money available to those who find these little niches and create niche mini sites for them.

In fact, you could be the ONLY person who creates a website for that multi-word key phrase. If so, then you would get ALL the traffic from those Google searches. Lucky duck!

By using your website to promote an affiliate product from CJ.com or ClickBank.com or your favorite affiliate program, you can turn that traffic into cashflow.

The fact is… Micro Niche Finder can easily put you onto a never-ending supply of attractive niche markets.

Here are examples of the niches he finds in the first video.

** lookup area code, lookup address by phone number, lookup a phone number

You’ll find these next two in the second video, which shows how to create single page niche mini sites to promote affiliate products.

** world of warcraft jewelcrafting guide, world of warcraft jewelcrafting

Then in the 3rd video (which is about creating residual revenue through AdSense sites), he finds these…

** teak patio set, teak patio sets, teak bedroom furniture… and many more.

In the 5th video (it’s about Squidoo), you will see how he found these Good Niche Markets Can Be Found:

** download psp games for free, hoodia rapid gels, hoodia walmart, hoodia high blood pressure, hoodia results

NOTE: Even in markets like Hoodia (which many people think of as over-saturated), you can still find good market niches.

At first glance, big picture thinking and customer focus would seem to be mutually exclusive terms. After all, the first phrase connotes a farsighted, panoramic view of business, while the second implies an intense, laser-beam-like concentration on the customer. Yet as revealed in Magnifying Customer Focus: A Study of Current Trends and Future Possibilities 2006-2016, a global study commissioned by American Management Association and conducted by The Human Resource Institute, the terms are not only compatible, they are inseparable.

The study finds that customer focus is a top strategic concern for many businesses today and is ranked as one of the most important needs concerning issues ranging from leadership challenges to ethical behavior and innovation. Yet it also reveals that there is a wide disparity between what activities companies practice when it comes to customer focus and what they should be practicing.

The study asked respondents to rank a variety of strategic actions in each of five areas environment/culture, communications, HR practices, measurement and organizational practices in terms of what their companies are doing now and then to rank those same actions in terms of what their companies should be doing. Here is a closer look at the results for each of the five areas.

In environment/culture, having the support of top management ranked number one in both the should-do and doing-it-now categories. On the surface this would appear to be a heartening result leadership is doing what it should be doing.

But that good news is undercut by the number two should-do action: having leaders set the example with customer-focused behaviors. This is only number four in the doing-it-now category, meaning that while leadership may nominally support customer focus, it is not necessarily supporting it with its actions. Perhaps that helps explain why including customers in our corporate value statements ranked number two in the doing-it-now category but only number six in the should-do category; mission statements are all well and good, but its action that counts.

In the communications area, Magnifying Customer Focus finds that companies are falling short of communicating the customer focus message internally. Respondents ranked the action of having an internal plan in place to communicate customer insights number four in the should-do category, but only number seven in the doing-it-now category, suggesting that many companies are missing this crucial component. Its important to note that this doesn’t simply mean leadership handing down memos. It means employees at all levels of the organization must share their perspective and facilitate feedback from the customer so the company can get a true picture of the state of its customer service.

Companies are placing too much emphasis on market share as an indicator of customer satisfaction, according to respondents results in the area of measurement. Regularly measuring market share ranked third in the doing-it-now category, but eighth in the should-do category, strongly suggesting that respondents believe this particular metric is of little value when it comes to gauging customer satisfaction. Bain & Co.s Fred Reich held has gone even further in questioning the relevance of market share as a reliable measurement of customer satisfaction. Reichheld maintains that although companies may capture market share and generate considerable revenue from dissatisfied customers, it is actually more costly than profitable in the long run to do so.

When it comes to HR, expecting employees to anticipate customer needs ranked number one in the doing-it-now category and number three in the should-do category. It seems that while the respondents believe this strategic action is important enough to be included in the top three of actions that should be taken, it is not the overall most important action. That distinction belongs to providing customer-oriented employee training, an action that ranked number one in the should-do category and number three in the doing-it-now category, a surprising result considering the number of customer service training programs currently in place. The takeaway from this seems to be that while companies may think that they?re addressing customer service training needs, they are in reality falling far short.

While the organizational practices area is a broadly defined subgroup with substantial overlap with the other four areas, it did produce some interesting results of its own. For example, responding to demands for customization and personalization ranked eighth in the doing-it-now category but ranked only twentieth in the should-do category. Customization and personalization have been hot topics lately, with many proclaiming them the next big thing, but clearly the survey respondents consider them overrated as a customer focus issue.

Conversely, the tactic of being customer-focused at all customer touch points, not just sales training and customer service ranked fourth in the should-do category and twelfth in the doing-it-now category, revealing a large disparity between its perceived importance and the extent to which its executed.

That point an urgent reminder that customer focus needs to be instilled throughout the organization and not isolated in one or two departments serves well to sum up the entire survey.

Recently we have received quite a few emails from people wondering how they can watch TV on their computer. With the internet becoming a true media center, it is now possible to find just about any TV channel on your computer - we thought we would put a quick article together to show you how this is possible.

Many people aren’t aware of the benefits of catching your favorite TV shows online. Compared to cable or satellite services, you can find a lot more right on your computer.

With cable or satellite service there is always some restrictions on what channels you received. Usually there are extra fees you have to pay if you want certain specialty channels such as movie or sports packages.

Watching television online is a lot different. The services that offer TV online don’t have the same programming restrictions to follow so they can offer a lot more selection than cable or satellite providers.

There are two main options when you are looking for online TV services - let’s go over each of them.

Option Number One

You can find certain websites that claim to offer free TV - many people try this as their first choice. However, there’s a lot of downsides to using this type of service.

With free online TV services there aren’t very many channels to choose from. You may find some of the basic channels but the premium channels, movie channels or sports packages aren’t available.

The picture quality is usually quite poor since there is no money being invested in these websites. They just don’t put any money into bandwidth or technology so you will often that the video streams break up or you get disconnected easily.

We can’t really recommend these sites because of the problems that come along with them - there are a lot better options.

Option Number Two

There are websites that offer access to thousands of different TV channels. This includes all of the major networks, sports packages, movies channels and other premium channels.

As you can imagine there is a fee for using this service, but it isn’t expensive. You will be asked to pay a one-time registration fee which then makes you a lifetime member at the website. All the software is included and there are never any additional fees that you have to worry about. Just to warn you - there are a couple of TV services online that charge a monthly fee. Stay away from them - you are much better off finding a service that only charges the one-time membership fee.

At the bottom of this article we included a link so you can learn how to get a free trial at some of the most popular services. All the software you need is included when you register.

A great feature for anyone with a laptop is that this service works anywhere in the world. No matter where you are you can watch all the channels right on your computer.

Since these services usually run about $50-$70, there’s a lot of people that have lowered their monthly cable charges and watch other premium channels on their computer. It’s a great option to have and you don’t have to worry about paying any fees besides the registration fee.

Watching TV online is a great way to keep up with your favorite shows, sports teams or movies and it’s quickly becoming part of many people’s entertainment systems. It’s the perfect way to always be able to catch your shows with the best part being you won’t get any monthly bills! Enjoy!
