FL 125 – We help Bill decide which niche to focus on for his membership site

Author: Shane Sams January 10, 2017 Duration: 35:24
Need ideas on how to focus on your target niche in your online business? Listen in as we help today's guest on focusing on his target niche to get his online business started. We have a super, amazing guest on air today! He is someone who has inspired many (including us) with his down-to-earth personality and has helped hundreds of clients through his unique approach in handling Small Business Internet Marketing and SEO know-how. We have Flip Your Life community member, Bill Parlaman. Bill is married and is the father to 5 fantastic kids. He got involved in the online business scene back in 2006 and founded Radical Marketing Solutions right from his basement. He specialized in getting client websites more traffic, leads and sales. He made processes very easy to understand and delivered high yielding results. He was able to leave his full-time job as a Risk Control Manager because of his agency's huge success. A few years later, he joined one of the largest marketing agencies in Philadelphia, and is currently serving as their Chief Digital Officer. It was an offer he just couldn't miss. Things were going smoothly, until June 2016, when he was diagnosed with colorectal cancer after going through a routine annual exam. It was this life changing event that forced him to rethink his priorities and focus on making huge lifestyle changes for the sake of his family. He managed to try several diet styles like the Paleo diet, and found that the Ketogenic type diet was what worked best for him. Throughout this transition, he has lost more than 60 pounds and has felt a surprising, steady flow in energy because of his commitment and determination to healthy living. After a successful major operation in September 2016 and having taken several weeks to recover from the biggest battle of his life, he is now 100% cancer-free. (Note: he was back in the forums after he had his surgery!) Now, he is looking into starting a membership site where he can invest his knowledge and have passive income that he can eventually use for his retirement. Join us as we discuss the angles we need to analyze in order to get the foundations of his membership site started. You also don't want to miss Bill's inspiring journey. Ready?

Hosted by Shane Sams, the Flipped Lifestyle™ Podcast is a conversation about building a business that actually fits around your life, rather than the other way around. It’s born from the real-world experience of Shane and his wife Jocelyn, a family who created a million-dollar income entirely online. They focus on the practical mechanics of selling digital products and running membership sites-essentially, creating valuable information and community that people are willing to pay for. This isn't abstract theory; each episode digs into the systems, mindsets, and sometimes surprising tactics that worked for them as they built a location-independent career. You’ll hear candid discussions on the challenges of shifting from a traditional job to a self-directed online venture, managing family dynamics alongside business growth, and the ongoing work of sustaining success. The aim is to provide actionable insights for anyone feeling stuck in a conventional routine and dreaming of a "flipped" reality where work supports life on their own terms. Tune in for a straightforward, often humorous look at the entrepreneurial journey from a couple who is still actively living it, sharing their lessons so you can chart your own course.
