I like the fact that he tells readers this book isn’t about “get rich quick”. And when he says he finished the book with a renewed sense of enthusiasm, that’s the icing on the cake for me.
Why? Because in a world where it seems only the loudest, most hype-ridden promises of instant wealth catch attention, it's good to know that I have managed to generate enthusiasm with the description of a more realistic goal..
The book isn’t about getting rich quick, but can still leave you feeling excited about the prospect of creating a reasonable second income from some money-making websites of your own.Here is the full text of Roger’s review.
I recommend Nick Usborne's New Path to Riches for many reasons, but--most important--I respect its realism and restraint.
For too long, the majority of books about Internet marketing have included the word "millionaire" in their title. Nick's book, however, makes no such claims.
Instead, it describes how he created a part-time, "enthusiast" site that earns him $4,000 a month in passive, or residual, income. This is a far more realistic approach that doesn't oversell prospective readers.
What I especially like is the fact that he balances the success that he's achieving with his www.coffeedetective.com site, with his admission that online success can never be "guaranteed"--that his success with the coffee site is balanced by other sites that don't produce as much income for him each month.
The above level of candor, alone, puts Nick Usborne's New Path to Riches in a class of its own.
In the book's 9 chapters, Nick provides an overview of the basics of online marketing--and the revolution that Google has created--with enough details to substantiate his claims. His arguments about the inability of traditional media to properly serve niche markets is especially strong. His example of the "garden bridge" website does the best job of driving home the power of the Internet to allow individuals to profit from under-served niche markets of any I've seen.
I left New Path to Riches with a new enthusiasm for rethinking some of my previous "too crazy to try" web marketing ideas and a desire to reposition some of my current websites to do a better job of appealing to fewer visitors.
Definitely worth buying if you're considering developing one, or more, niche websites to smooth out your monthly cashflow with minimum risk.
