How To Choose An Online Business Idea (That Will Make Money)!

Author: Shane Sams October 5, 2021 Duration: 51:36

Today's guest on the podcast is Flipped Lifestyle community member Mike Buchanan! Mike is in software development, has created multiple products over the years, and he now wants to move into online business and create a membership, but he has a dilemma: too many ideas!

Mike and Shane Sams will try to figure out which of Mike's three ideas provides the best path to a profitable online business. Focus on the one that has the best chance to succeed by going all-in. If you try ideas A, B, and C at the same time, you make it more difficult to see what works.

Brainstorming, choosing which idea is quickest to get to market, and using SWOT analysis will give you clarity on which idea you should pursue.

In today's episode you'll learn:

How to decide which online business idea to try

Don't let your biases or assumptions get in the way

How to prioritize and go all-in on one idea

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.
