Sherece.com - Spencer Heckathorn's Blog

Do you have issues with this? It's crazy to think that I am talking about a situation where too much opportunity is causing stagnation... Opportunity is Everywhere I'm not bragging when I say this, but opportunity is everywhere. I think most people become immune to seeing it around them. Then there is another group completely that has the issue I have, I'm good at seeing the opportunity but not so good at picking which one to go with. Every Opportunity Seems Damned Promising Currently, everything I'm looking at seems awesome. Now I must admit from the time I started this post till now some of these opportunities feel more right than others, but the same problem persists because the ones that "feel right" are the hardest long shots of all of them. Could I be too optimistic? I mean I certainly think it's possible. Breakdown of Current Opportunities Hektech and Better PC Health - these seem somewhat obvious, but I have made some key changes in the last month to Hektech, and I have planned for months to do the Let's Build a Business for Better PC Health. Growth is slow and in the future sometime I will explain some major problems I have. If you don't know what Hektech and Better PC Health click the links of each to find out more YouTube - This is really a small part of a bigger whole at this point, however, it could be a great opportunity. Right now I have my personal channel, Hektech, and BPCH along with another random channel that I have not done anything with but have plans to make some fun top 10 type videos on. YouTube does allow for people to make better than an average living but most of the people who are doing this have been on there for years and make high-quality videos. Blogging - I have met a few people in the recent months that make more than you or I could possibly imagine from blogging... We are talking about over $100k monthly. I don't think I write anything that could make that kind of money, but I could see myself doing that for sure. Sherece's Stores - Last on this list is Sherece's stuff, Sherece.com and Baking Is My Yoga (Facebook and Website). We are looking at doing a Kickstarter for the latter and we already have Sherece.com running. I want to give her enough attention so that she can be successful as possible. This leaves out the other people I am working with... It leaves out CL Harmon and The Mannford Reporter, it leaves out NJ and our planned PTA site, and at least 3 more people I can think of without trying!!! How I Look at Each Opportunity Well without trying to sound like some kind of nut (I likely do) I look at them damned optimistically. Hektech or Better PC Health could be extremely successful beyond the limits of "owning a freelance job"... wildly I am telling you. They are both businesses that have completely automatable systems. They could be staffed by people with minimal skill and they both would provide huge value for their customers. YouTube, if you didn't know it, creates millionaires. No Joke. Finding whatever it takes to make some videos that get to 1 million views monthly. I think I would only need 1 or 2 videos to do that monthly to live very well... I have heard many people get side gigs and other work from their YouTube videos, I do hope for that. Blogging is one of those things I have always said I wanted to do, but just never really did the "right" way. People want to see consistent material of a certain quality. Last on this list is my lovely wife's stuff. She really has some stuff that looks like it has huge potential. But I still Feel Stuck... When it comes to BPCH and Hektech; I just can't seem to figure out how to get it rolling like it should. I think that is the main reason I am doing the Let's Build a Business on YouTube. Which brings me to my next point YouTube I see as a very long shot and not something I am banking on at all. It is kind of like blogging, however, maybe I can get it right this time around. I don't expect to make any direct money from this. Much like YouTube, I could see how it could generate income in other ways. With Sherece's stores I feel like I can help a lot, but don't know all that I need to know. I for sure don't feel I can give her the time and attention she needs or deserves. With all this opportunity, in a way I feel stuck on two sides; which do I pick and how do I do it right? What I end up doing is just everything, which actually seems to help, but it is hard to think this is the optimal way of doing things.
