Internet Business Ideas
These stories will likely stir up new insights into your online business opportunity, help you create new internet business ideas, and will likely renew your faith in your own abilities and wisdom.
I told you in STEP 3.1 about my own experiences, and the Alaska fishing vacation site.
Here are 14 other demonstrations of people who WORKED the Gold Route, explained in STEP 4. Enjoy their stories and learn from them.
The stories are excellent illustrations and solid proof why the GOLD process works so well. These people concentrate on doing their business, instead of focusing on website technology.

Case Study 1: Elad... The Infopreneur
Elad’s story (Opens new window) shows how to convert knowledge of a certain subject into e-business. He is... the Birthday Dad... and a "pure infopreneur".
Elad’s site is fun and entertaining. It drives traffic from the search engines, and then Elad converts this traffic into money without selling a product or service. He has an information-based business.
Elad's case study is further illustrated and explained by this infopreneurial business example about "Arenac County Real Estate". Use these
examples for your own internet business ideas.

Case Study 9: James... Network Marketing
Network Marketing is all about... (1) recruiting new leads and relationship-building, (2) sales conversion, (3) ongoing consumption of products and/or services, and (4) replicating yourself through downline motivation and training (building a team of downline distributors).
James (Opens new window) shows you how to REALLY do network marketing online. You can create all kind of internet business ideas from his case study.
It's so very obvious, yet almost everyone is doing it wrong and failing.

A Way Out
Wow. What an inspiration these real life success stories are!
Some of these people were tired of the rat race. They wanted no more worlds to conquer. All they desired was a way out. The Generation 4 Internet Revolution (see STEP 2.5) would provide that escape route, in a way that would astonish them all.
They started with their internet business ideas. They focused on building their online businesses, and outsourced all the behind-the-scenes technology and complexity of building and marketing their web sites.
Their success stories will help YOU build your own online business. I read these stories again and again, and create new internet business ideas from them.
Moving Forward...
