"Even those professionals that really welcome change and are energized by it also find it difficult and stressful to deal with." –Hank Paulson, chief executive of Goldman Sachs Group and U.S. Treasury Secretary nominee.THE PROBLEM: Although some people like making changes, no one likes being changed.Generally, change management issues focus on employee groups. But what about the managers that are supposed to lead the change efforts? Recent studies show that they often dig in their
But you know who never lost money? The real-estate agent. I would work for months constructing the house and lose thousands of dollars. The real-estate agent put the deal together... and always made a profit. She got the finder’s fee.
Finders keepers... Losers weepers.
The idea of finder's fees may give you visions of fast moving, high-stakes business deals generating millions of dollars in profit. These scenarios certainly exist. But generating good income from finder's fees does not have to be so 'Hollywood' in nature.
In reality there are opportunities for generating referral income all around us. And more times than not, one referral opportunity leads to others. And the good news is…
It is not as complicated as you may think.
A Very Realistic Example Let’s say you live in a beautiful, though not too well-known quaint little part of the world. It is a very popular vacation spot for the locals. But it remains unknown to the rest of the world. The locals, of course, like it that way. But you see it as an opportunity.
You are not the only one who smells opportunity. A local hotel owner thinks that by creating a website the world will beat a path to his door. But there is one problem. No one is looking for his hotel, or his website, or for him. His beautiful masterpiece of a website dies a lonely death.
You also think creating a website is a great idea. But you know one thing the hotel owner doesn’t know. You know that people are not looking for his hotel. What are people looking for?

Fear of failure is a creature of imagination and like most creatures of imagination, it disappears when looked at in the clear light of da

And they do come. They come to your little website. In fact they come by the thousands. Why? Because you gave your niche audience exactly what they were looking for.
But some of them actually want to come to your backyard.
Where will they stay? At the hotel, of course. And so you recommend the hotel… for a fee.
How will they get there? They will fly. On which airline? The airline which is one click from your website. And you get a commission.
They need a car…
Where will they eat?
Where will they shop?
What if some people want to settle there? Where will they live?
You get the picture.
What Do You Love? Creating a travel website is only one scenario. The possibilities are numerous. What do you love? What can you share with people that would benefit them? How can you create business for other people simply by writing about what you already know?
Only you can answer these questions. But of one thing you should be certain. Everybody has at least one good niche within them. It just takes a little work.
But there is another bonus. Collecting finder’s fees is not the only way to profit from a niche website. In fact once you create your niche there are numerous ways to profit. With some time and effort you may be surprised at what you can create.
