Are You Exploiting Your Opportunities?
Two and a half years ago I started a website to help others learn about camcorders and editing. It was a side project and postings were sparse. In early 2007 I started writing 2-5 articles a week and saw the number of visitors to my site increase 200-300%.
It was nice to see, but my heart wasn’t really into it and money was the motivator in sitting down to write articles. Three months into my big push to write consistently I let it slide again.
The motivation to write just wasn’t there.
I read an article awhile back where Shoemoney said he “exploits every opportunity.” Exploiting is a powerful word and I hadn’t really exploited every option for this website.
I’ve decided to expoit an opportunity out of my dud because I don’t see the site growing unless I do something different than all the other sites, especially since the consumer camcorder market is slow. As the idea moves forward I will report on it later.
But for now, what opportunities can be exploited by you?
