How to Make Money Here is Such a Mystery! Or Is It?

Why does it need to be such a mystery? Or be so difficult?

So nice to meet you! Put in a year and your bound to succeed. Really! Put important things above the fold. I've heard it all!

It's nuts!

Listen. You're in a people business, not a computer/internet business. Here is what I visualize happening to students not earning money.

A virtual marketplace

You know the kind with lots of people walking and shopping looking to buy fruit, clothing, etc.

Ahh... I see one who wants to buy some oranges!

What luck a WA student shop (web site) is selling oranges! But he's too busy talking to notice!

To busy wishing other students luck and asking if the color of their sign is right? Now they're stacking their oranges to look more better. After all their oranges shop is designed to be self-service - using the latest technology. Customers can simply pick out their fruit and drop the money in the cash register.

The competition does it right

In the meantime, the competitor across the street has kids handing out free oranges on the street. The thankful and curious customer is led back to the shop where salesmen get to know them - calling them by their name.

Once the oranges are sold, they're up selling automatic orange peelers. There is a display rack with flyers on how to cook with oranges. The owners are visiting the local restaurants getting to know their orange requirements and trying to sell oranges by the ton.

They're peeking into every eye. Getting to know their clients.

Finally, a sale! Almost.

An occasional buyer wanders across the street to see what is going on at non-performing WA's student's orange shop. Finally. But, why should they buy their oranges?

You answer the question.
