What in the world is 'Infopreneuring'?
Infopreneuring is the new buzzword on the Internet. It's an
exciting combination of an entrepreneur and information creator.
The term 'infopreneuring' refers to the actions of creating (or
having created) valuable information resources which are then
monetized in entrepreneurial ways.Think of an expert writing a book. A specialist delivering a
lecture. An artisan developing a documentary showcasing her
skill. A teacher delivering lessons over the Web.They are all infopreneuring their way to massive wealth. And
they are doing it by tapping into the incredible reach and low
cost offered to us all by the explosive growth of the Internet. So how would YOU like to start infopreneuring today? Like the
idea, but don't know where to start? Don't worry, that's where
the vast majority of hopeful beginners are.To get started on your infopreneuring voyage, you'll have to
follow a simple step by step process.1. Search your knowledge-base. Before infopreneuring, think
about what you can share, teach or explain to your audience. It
would preferably be something you know well, are an expert at,
or can become one quickly.2. Think about your audience. Far too many infopreneuring
failures happen because the infopreneur got caught up in what
s/he wants over what the audience does. Remember - in
infopreneuring, your market is king (or queen!) 3. Choose a format. Infopreneuring involves writing, speaking,
drawing, recording, meeting - or any combination of these
methods of sharing information with your market. Pick the one
best suited for your needs and skills. 4. Draw up a plan. Infopreneuring won't just happen. You need
to devise a plan of action, develop a strategy to follow. You
wouldn't start a journey without a roadmap - so don't start
being an infopreneur before you've made a plan. 5. Take massive action. Infopreneurs are entrepreneurs. And
entrepreneurs are, above all else, massive action-takers.
Positive thinkers. Firm believers. You should be the same.
The one differentiator is that your 'product' is your
information - and that's why what you do is called
infopreneuring.6. Educate yourself. Do it continuously. Infopreneuring is
new. It will twist and turn in many exciting ways. You want to
be ahead of the curve, not behind the crowds. And that means
studying the specialty. Keeping abreast of developments.
Expanding your knowledge.Infopreneuring is fun, even if it isn't easy. Infopreneuring is
simple, even if it isn't effortless. Infopreneuring is
profitable, though you won't get rich in your first week.Enjoy the journey, and look forward to arriving at the
destination. The price you pay will be well worth it just to be
called 'Infopreneur'
