It Truly Pays To Do Your Research
I am a firm believer in doing your research if you intend to promote something. How can you effectively promote and sell something to people if you do not know of the benefits? This is one of the main reason why I do not recommend new members at WA to start their training doing Bootcamp.
I HAVE HEARD ALL OF THE POSITIVE RESULTS
As some of you know I have a website that provides life saving information from doctors, researchers and survivors on the successful natural cures for cancer. One of the natural treatments I started researching was marijuana and if it really worked or there was something more to the claims.
Long story short, there is a compound in marijuana that does kill cancer cells, however much of this has been bred out in order to produce a more high effect. Now that medical marijuana is becoming more legal this compound is being bred back into the plant. What is this compound? It's called Cannabidiol or CBD.
Though CBD has close to 100 scientific and clinical studies proving its medicinal qualities, many people did not know about it until Dr. Sanjay Gupta, who was totally against the use of marijuana, made it well known back in 2014. CNN did a documentary on how CBD literally cured a little girl of epilepsy.
I FOUND MY NEXT NICHE MARKET
Though CBD can be found in marijuana, it can be found in greater abundance in hemp, which is legal to buy, sell and use in all 50 states and in a majority of countries. Hemp and marijuana are two totally different plants. Marijuana can get you high and hemp cannot. This is why hemp products are legal and even certified as organic food by the USDA.
Originally I was thinking of starting an affiliate website promoting hemp, especially since it can be used for a wide variety of things from clothing to paper to food to fuel and even more. But hemp is too broad a niche. So I decided to focus solely on CBD hemp oil. I then started doing more research and what I found was amazing!
There are CBD receptors all throughout our bodies with many in the brain. Our bodies need CBD to help function properly. Here are just several disorders out of many that CBD is proven beneficial for; anxiety, chronic pain, sleeping disorders, stress, PTSD, and depression. It works so well that big pharma is trying to copy it.
THERE IS AN AFFILIATE PROGRAM FOR THAT
Naturally I went searching for an affiliate program so I could join and get ready to make money on this still emerging new natural therapy. Though I found several, l found one with great credentials and a long successful history using organic hemp from Europe, which is where the best hemp comes from.
To further my research I bought a bottle of CBD hemp oil to try myself. My doctor said it was totally safe, non toxic, and even if I were on any pharmaceuticals it would still be safe because CBD does not interact with medication since our bodies require it. I have been using it for five days, 0.5 mL under the tongue twice per day, and I feel great!!!
The pain in my lower back from a spinal cord injury 10 years ago is gone, I feel more relaxed, and I am sleeping better, waking up more refreshed. I even did an experiment in seeing if it could counteract a hangover. Yesterday after drinking multiple craft beers, while I was in an immense buzzed state, I took some CBD and I was clear headed within 30 minutes.
THE MONEY MAKING POTENTIAL LOOKS PROMISING
With the many proven benefits of CBD hemp oil, the encouraging clinical studies that are ongoing, well-known athletes touting its benefits for pain reduction, and even the U.S. Government's National Institute of Health holding a patent 6,630,507 on the use of CBD for the treatment of brain degeneration, the future looks profitable in this niche.
Though I do not have the spare time to start another niche website at this time, I can still make money with this affiliate program. I can either start selling the hemp products directly via ecommerce after purchasing them at bulk wholesale prices or I can sign up other affiliates to qualify for 2nd tier commissions.
All I can say right now is that I am very excited about this new niche I am getting into. If I feel this good after only 5 days, I cannot wait to see what else feels better after one month. I do know this personally, some of the many benefits of CBD hemp oil are true, as I am sure the others are too. It truly does pay to do your research.

It's been banned in South Australia thanks to big pharma! It's illegal to buy, sell or consume hemp oil.
https://www.hemp4health.com.au/product-sellers-lobbyists/
Yes, I heard about that. And it is very much about the money because CBD hemp oil does not get you high and is not addictive. It is totally safe but far more effective than any kind of pharmaceutical.
The owner of the company I became affiliated with is also the CEO and founder of Hemp Foods Australia. He can freely sell all over the world except in Australia and some products like the oil in NZ.
Normally it is the U.S. that is behind the times when it comes to the use of natural medicines, but it is quite shocking that Australia is still dealing with corrupt money hungry laws.
Hi great post, I have just started using WA to build a hemp cbd business, I have been researching Hemp cbd for over 20 years and its potential is massive, as a plant and income opportunity, good luck and maybe we could give each other pointers if needed
Paul
That is awesome to hear Paul. There was another WA member a couple of years ago that started a CBD website and he blogged about how he made $3.1K in sales within 60 days at WA. See link below. Hopefully you and I can do the same if not better. $3.1K in Sales 60 Days on WA!
Did you know that it is also being used for people who suffer from PTSD, and you can get it in gummy (candy)..it is more of a body high than a mind high...relaxes the body completely! You could probably do some research on that for your blog! :)
Yes, I know someone with PTSD that is going to try it because of all of the medical studies proving its benefits. Hopefully she buys through my affiliate link. :-)
Actually CBD does not produce a high of any kind, it does the opposite and calms down the nervous system and modulates body functions.
I am going to make my blog strictly on CBD and industrial hemp. Though there are some medical benefits to medical marijuana or cannabis, CBD hemp has far more benefits without making people high.
Great!! :) I use the gummies when I really need them, and that's what I meant by a body high..it relaxes you completely, and not like the mind high where I used to get paranoid! lol
Yes, the paranoia was the one thing I did not like about marijuana. But the more CBD in weed the less paranoia it will produce because CBD counteracts the THC which causes it.
But I like the cinnamon taste of the CBD oil I am using and because I place it under my tongue I can feel the therapeutic effects within 30 minutes. GREAT STUFF.
If I am not mistaken hemp is a agriculture crop here where I live, or they plan to make it legal to do so. I had always heard of hemp, but never knew what it was. Now I do. Thanks! : )
Yes, hemp is an agriculture crop that is legal to grow as long as it has no THC which is found in marijuana. Hemp can be made into clothing, produces more paper than trees, is a superfood, can be made into a biofuel, and even cars and car parts can be made from hemp. But too many people think hemp and marijuana are the same when they are total opposites.
I am really amazed at how well it works and how great I feel. The best thing is that it has nothing to do with marijuana or any of its psychoactive effects.
Thank you Gordon. I am really excited about getting this going in the near future. Right now I am so happy at the health benefits I am receiving after only 5 days of using the oil.

Hello, Robert...
Nice detail on how you went through the process to come up with this great niche. Whether you build it out or not, it shows just how to go about getting ready to do so.
I had heard about the medicinal value of marijuana, but not that the active chemical was also available from hemp. That is very exciting news actually...
The other thing I like about what you have discovered is that it is legal, important if you want to avoid some of the potential pitfalls of crossing the line legally...
Isn't it strange how one door closing opens another? Good can come out of bad, and the terrible thing you and your family went through has led to who knows how many people being helped...
'Hut auf', as they say in German...It means 'Respect'....
Cheers!
Dave : )
Yes, I do believe in the one door closes another opens theory.
The main reason why marijuana has medicinal qualities has to do more so with its CBD content than its THC. Where THC has about a handful of medicinal benefits CBD has 20 times more.
And though there are many promoting cannabis oil, which has some THC, CBD hemp oil has none if not less than 0.03%, which makes it legal.
But when people hear hemp they still think marijuana and they are totally different. The relationship between marijuana and hemp is the same as an orange and a lemon. Both are greatly different but come from the same plant family.
Interesting how both marijuana and hemp have been maligned by Corporate interests influence on Governments...Long ago I read a history of the two, how it came to be banned, outlawed, and criminalized. etc.
Personally I stick with the stuff that will not get me in trouble, like beer, but when I was a youngster, I did inhale. Once I got married and had kids, all that was past...
I have posted videos on Facebook about the positive effect marijuana has on some maladies, and you can see the effect right there in front of your eyes, so I have no doubt that both can be helpful...
Hopefully more informed legislators will make the changes necessary to get the products or derivatives to the people that could use them plus decriminalize using them too, it just is a big drag on society, and at a far higher cost than any detrimental affect using them has (based on what I know anyway, no hard data on this)...
Sensitive subject with some, especially if they own stocks in the for profit prison companies out there or if their next election is paid for by big pharma (hmmmmmm I wonder why they do not want to take action/want to push back time to the 80s no matter the facts)...Let's see, who might fall into this category...Many unfortunately...
Cheers!

YUP, all of the misinformation on both marijuana and hemp has everything to do with the protection of profits for the pharmaceutical, petro-chemical and paper industries to name a few.
The hypocrisy of it all is the U.S. government, which many other western governments tend to blindly follow at times. The government continues to list marijuana as a schedule 1 drug, meaning it has no medicinal value.
However as I mentioned in the blog above, the U.S. Government's National Institute of Health, NIH, has a patent number 6,630,507 on the medical use of CBD from cannabis for the treatment of brain degeneration due to trauma.
It makes me angry that there are all of these natural plant-based medicines that have been used for centuries quite effectively but the majority of western governments censor the knowledge and make people continue to suffer all for the almighty dollar.
Fortunately for me, most of my family and many of my friends, we are wise to the misinformation and take our health care into our own hands. It's safer, less expensive, and more effective because it goes after the causes and not the symptoms.
