Realizing Potential Markets

I read a lot. Every day, I read tons and tons of web related material. One of the sites I frequent is Retireat21.com.

When reading some of the older interviews, I came across one which is probably my favorite out of them all (except mine of course hahaha jk). This interview is with Sean Belnick, the owner of Bizchair.com.

When reading through the interview, you'll see that Bizchair expects to bring in close to $50 million in sales this year. WOW. That's intense.

Just to break that down into a figure, that's a little under $137,000 per day in sales. Impressive for sure. So in order to get there, I need to multiply my earnings by roughly 30 times. Hahahaha.

Who would have thought that you could bring in $50 million dollars selling office chairs? Not me. I never thought that would be possible.

So I say all of this because there are potential markets in a lot of areas. We may not realize at times the enormity of the internet. When we find ways to garner some of that traffic, the options are truly limitless.

      I agree, I didn’t think chairs were worth that much, but then again (and no pun intended) but I didn’t think a blog could be in $140k a month lol.

      i suppose almost everything can be sold online and be profitable… $50million selling office chairs.. he must have sold millions of chairs for him to be able to achieve so much..

      The best way to identify a market is to stick to what you know. If you’re a lawyer, focus on the legal industry because you know it well and can probably figure out a problem or need that exists in that industry. Then you can come up with a product or service that solves the problem or satisfies the need.

      Good find, I’ve recently started reading that site and there is some very inspirational stuff on there.
