A NOTE FROM JAMES
Welcome to this edition of Spotlight on Personal and Business Success.
The PassionBiz success tip for this week is: how to move from passion to a profitable business venture – see article below.
Meanwhile my monthly free talk is scheduled for next week on Thursday and this months' topic is Become a better Marketer: How to Market, Get Clients and More Money in the Bank.
Have a blessed week.

5 TIPS TO TURN YOUR PASSION INTO A BUSINESS
1. TARGET A MOTIVATED MARKET
Your gifts, talents, ideas and solutions must be harnessed, polished and positioned to help a particular group of people with a major challenge or problem – one that they are willing, able and happy to pay to have resolved.
Most business ideas 'crash' on takeoff because of not targeting a motivated niche.
No matter how good your idea, if that's not what 'they' want, you will struggle to get clients.
From my experience – if 'they' don't want it free is not cheap enough.
Target a problem they are willing to pay to have it solved.
2. VENTURE OUT OF YOUR USUAL COMFORT ZONES
The business success and financial breakthrough you are seeking is only available in another location – a location that may be unfamiliar at first.
You must step out of the usual and the familiar.
This means a 'business unusual' approach.
Do things differently.
Do different things.
You must stretch to reach a fruit that is just above your reach.
3. TAP INTO THE HIDDEN WEALTH IN YOUR IDEA
Every idea has the potential to generate at least 3 income streams.
To make your idea profitable work to unearth the hidden wealth just lying in wait. The secret here is to look for additional + unique ways to be of service to your clients.
One possible income stream lying in wait is: teach/train/coach/mentor others to do what you do.
You only need to be one or two steps step ahead.
4. BE WILLING TO PAY GOOD MONEY FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES
If you have not yet experienced or felt how it feels to pay good money for a product or service, you will always have internal resistance to charging and asking for higher fees.
As a consequence you will not be paid what you are worth and your idea will not be profitable.
When you appreciate and invest in what others have to offer it has a positive boomerang effect on your cash flow and bottom line.
5. LEARN TO BOUNCE BACK FROM SETBACKS
It is inevitable that in every entrepreneurial endeavor you will make mistakes, wrong moves and experience setbacks of one form or the other.
The difference that makes the difference is how quickly you bounce back. Bounce back you will if you recognize what the setback really is – a speed bump.
Speed bumps are placed to slow you down, to avoid 'danger' ahead, and to alert you of the nature of the section ahead and so on.
So learn from your mistakes and setbacks, make the necessary adjustments and get back on the road of serving your clients.
Get a coach/mentor to 'hand hold' you as you navigate your way out that situation.
