One million dollars in just one year.


Many sites have already told the story. But we can not ignore. This success story simple young man, who is now just 25 years. Four years ago, in August 2005, the English guy Alex Tew created the Million Dollar Homepage - the site in one page.
The idea was simple. Blank web page, with one million blank pixels. Tew decided to sell one pixel on this page posted on the Internet. The cost of a pixel is only one dollar.
Total for the year, the stupid idea brought a young man more than a million dollars. As a consequence, he admitted: "I was hoping to get more than 5% of the results, but apparently there was a miracle." This was not a miracle. Triggering of the new law. When there is something new in the world - it attracts the interest of many people.
On its Web page had no interesting material. Only banners, some of them more than 100 pixels. Each banner ad, leading to the advertised website. On this project, there is no harmony, just a mess of colorful blocks. But as it was not enough, Internet community positively met his business idea, and as a result of selectively make one person a millionaire.
After this project on the Internet, a host of imitators, but none of them had no such success.
http://www.milliondollarhomepage.com/ - is the address of its advertising pages. You can emulate him as much as necessary. But it is better to adopt a lesson he gave us. Find new, then what else was not and you become a millionaire. Although both ancient wisdom says: "There is nothing new under the sun, all that has already happened." Then try to open his eyes wider, and observe, observe, observe. All that we need - is to see an idea that would translate our goals into reality.

Business Idea... Money for translating business ideas


Money for translating business ideas

 Business idea - it's half the battle. But to realize it needed the money . Happens on the contrary, there is money and the desire to start a business, but no knowledge of where to invest and under what safeguards. Today, I propose, implemented a business idea in Europe. Its main principle, to find funding for your business ideas.
This "theme" can and should be even necessary to correctly implement with us.
Collective financing of projects (business plans, business ideas) is a popular destination on the Internet. Following a new trend, entrepreneurs from Brooklyn ran the resource Kickstarter, which enables artists, journalists, writers, screenwriters, producers, musicians, designers, entrepreneurs to create sources of funding for their great ideas.
The financing scheme is simple - users place a description of the idea, pointing out the deadline for collecting money for its implementation, as well as bonuses for donations, such as free T-shirt for $ 25 dollars.
By the way, the so-called "sponsors" for their donations have only promised bonuses and any share, interest of profit, etc., as well as the opportunity to follow the successful realization of this idea. The authors provide an account of ideas with the help of Amazon Payments, which will come all the money. Anyone wishing to support the project, or liked the idea of making their donations before the deadline specified by the entrepreneur.
After closing the position (when the required amount collected), all proceeds are transferred to the author's ideas. In the case if the timing of arrears, and the specified financial target was not achieved, all receipts shall be canceled automatically.
This gives a good motivational kick to the authors ideas, food for thought on why people do not want to fund the idea and stimulate the desire to communicate and to better present their idea to the greatest possible range of people. In addition, for greater motivation, project participants may Kickstarter free to use this site to test their products or selling them. The only drawback of this resource is that the proposal could benefit residents of the United States.
Therefore, local internet entrepreneurs, you can try to correct this shortcoming by creating a similar project in Russia.
Project website: www.kickstarter.com
Recommend. For all entrepreneurs is a good bookmark. Here begins the construction business: brick price . In fact, a good and functional website. Here you will be able to agree on the supply of bricks in your region.

Business Idea number ... Shop for one thing.


Shop for one thing.

The new creative approach to e-commerce came up American Matt Rutledge. He created an online store Woot (http://www.woot.com/) sells just one product name, what is fundamentally different from other similar sites. The trick is that every day, sold some new thing, and at the fabulously low price!
Every day at midnight of the day declared goods. It can be any subject - from razors to plasma TVs, but the price is sure to be dumping. Traffic to the site - about 10.000 people a day, so just a few hours of being sold all day quota.
Matt Rutledge buys goods only from those suppliers / manufacturers who are willing to offer maximum discount - because of the large wholesale, stale goods or personal arrangements. In general, would be found for "cheap" is what will sell. )) So hard to guess what will go on sale tomorrow.
For example 09.12.2008 selling men's watch in stainless steel for $ 69.99 and 12.12.2008 Home Theater 5.1 sound for $ 249.99. Photo below. If you think that these goods can be bought more cheaply, do not forget that we are talking about the United States.
On average, goods sold on Woot 40-60% cheaper than usual prices. And such an offer, you will agree, it's hard to refuse. We can say that the principle discounter built in maximum. And given the fact that the site is not reported amount of daily quota (at any moment, you may receive an advertisement, "Sorry, today, all goods sold), there is a certain excitement. - "Need to take until the end!" 
 

 Matt Rutledge (Matt Rutledge) came up with this business in 2004 when he was 33 years old. The model has earned on the principle of a snowball. Now on Woot and a half million registered users, and revenue for 2007 totaled about 117 million dollars ...
PS Name Woot - it's an acronym from the words wow (Wow!). And loot (finding, mining).

Business Idea number... Santa Claus and the business at $ 1 million?

Santa Claus and the business at $ 1 million?


                                                                                            

How Santa Claus can earn $ 1 million? What do you think, where to live the American Santa Claus? It is clear that the character is fantastic, but that is surely needed to meet the children to their questions. Alaskan Byron Rice decided that his native town of North Pole (North Pole - a good name) is best suited for the residence of the American Santa Claus.
In 2001 he came up with a brilliant idea - to send children to a letter of greetings from Santa Claus. Stamp on the letter corresponding to: the place of origin, the Norfa Pole. Yet they know that there lives Santa Claus ... The service costs $ 9.95. Ie virtually nothing for this elegant greeting. Applications are accepted on the site SantaMeyl.Org (http://www.santamail.org/)
And already the eve of the new 2002 Rice collected 10 thousand applications. What brought him to exactly 100 thousand dollars. Naturally, there were certain costs: paper, envelopes, stamps, s / n, assistant secretaries, office rent, advertising. But in any case, the $ 70.000 he made clear, in fact, up to 1 month of work ...
Every year the number of orders increased in arithmetic progression. And over 5 years was sent to 200.000 emails. Byron Rice has already become a millionaire, though he worked only 1 month of the year. The rest of the year, Rice is limited to answering phone calls and letters. And on New Year's Eve itself, he even calls does not answer. Writes on the website: "I have no time. Helping the elves to load the sleigh with gifts. "
I think this story is very instructive. All we hear complaints that all niches are already occupied, that without money and connections - anywhere, etc etc. Norfa Pole - this God-forsaken American backwater. It would seem - no money is not there, and no business to build. Byron Rice does not think so. And before us in all its glory - dressed as Santa Claus and bundles of dollars in arms.
