Kyle's insights into becoming an Expert in your Niche
Hello friends - Happy and Prosperous New Year!
Today I finally took some time to watch Kyle's recorded LIVE webinar from last year (wow, 2017 is last year already!) and I would like to share with you the key things I took away.
Here is the link to the webinar if you haven't watched it already:

I found the presentation incredibly insightful and motivating! Kyle has been on the online world for 15 years, and I'm sure we could all trust his advice and insights seeing that he and Carson founded a successful Online University and other niche sites during all those years, providing so much help to all aspiring online marketers; plus the team in WA never stops updating their knowledge and expertise and going with the changing tides in the online marketing world!
As Kyle himself said in the webinar:
You don't need to follow conventional wisdom that says you need to put in 10 thousand hours or 10 years in order to become an Expert at something.
These Experts sometimes write books or share their techniques, experiences and lessons from their failures. And you could speed up the process of becoming an expert too, by learning from their mistakes and following techniques that led them to success. And by keeping yourself engaged with the ongoing trends in your niche.
So, the key things I took away:
- Be self-confident in your knowledge about your niche and emanate an "expert" aura already! You will grow more and more into the role as your website and engagement keep growing.
- Don't expect immediate results and quick financial success! People study in universities for 4+ years to obtain degrees that will lead them to a full-time job and high salary. And you want to make a sustainable income after working on a new skill for just 2-3 months? Get realistic!
- Don't be discouraged thinking that there are already millions of established websites in your niche. As one of my favorite travel bloggers, Nomadic Matt, says to aspiring bloggers: Take a look at your neighborhood, you'll see many restaurants that all provide food but each one has different flavors and special dishes! Should somebody passionate about food be discouraged to open a new restaurant because others exist already? No!
- Use a journal and keep track of your business ideas or anything new you could explore in your niche. Don't just assume you'll remember them again later! Millions of thoughts pass through our minds daily; inspiration is fleeting and we should record our ideas and plans in order not to lose them in the playground of our monkey-minds!
I'm sure there are many great things in store for us in 2018 in WA, looking forward to them!
Thanks again, Kyle, for this great live presentation and all the gems you shared with us :)
Wishing everyone a successful 2018 - never stop learning and working hard to achieve your goals!

A wonderful blog revealing different aspects and your personal review of the webinar. A joy to read.
Hi Nicky,
A very inspiring blog, indeed will take time but to study something new is alway a bit "stop" n "go" . The variety of our sites is what brings in the readers. Just depends on "the day" what readers want.
Lovely words.
Cheers Jae
Thank you, Jae!
I totally agree with you. And to become experts and keep those readers as a consistent audience, the key is being absolutely in love with our respective niche and provide value and help!
Thanks for your feedback :)
I watched the Webinar and got a lot out of it, especially Kyle's description of "becoming your niche" and immersing oneself in it.
As a result, I have discovered 10 blogs in my niche that I never would have thought of looking for without Kyle's comments. I have joined two of them so far. And I've also started journaling as well. Great post, Nicky.
Thank you, Carol!
I'm glad the training was of so much help to you too.
And yes, keeping a daily journal is going to be a big clarifying and motivating tool! I loved this suggestion from Kyle :)
Great takeaways Nikoleta, love the focus and direction. Best wishes for success in 2018! :-)
Thank you, Bob! Healthy and prosperous 2018 and may we all become experts and enjoy great success!
Love the key takeaways that you got from the training and those were the main points that I was trying to deliver, albeit through a few personal stories and a round about way.
Being an authority is a possibility in any niche, by anyone. It is just a matter of embracing your niche and give yourself enough time!
Thank you, Kyle, for the webinar and all the continuous, personal support you provide to us members of WA! :)
I loved the personal stories you shared in the webinar, such as the Subway sandwich insight. By "becoming" our niche we can certainly become experts - as long as we don't expect too much too soon and put in consistent work!
Brilliant, Nikoleta!
You have covered the video very well. You guys are very privileged to have an amazing mentor in Bo.
Concerning Kyle's video, it was a wealth of genuine content and information for a lifetime. Kyle is in a class by himself in comparison to what I hear online from a lot of "gurus."
We must understand the customer by being active in online forums and communities, which are similar to our niches. We must "become" our niche.
See what's bothering people online and offline and provide a solution.
All the best!

Thanks for the feedback, David!
I totally agree with you, Kyle is in a league of his own! I'm amazed by his generosity in sharing his insights and valuable information with all of us here, how down to Earth he is and how he genuinely cares about helping us in WA by personally interacting with the members.
You offered another bullet-point that should be in my post:
- "Become" your niche! Participate in online groups to interact with your prospective audience and see what solutions you can offer to their issues.
Hi Mike, yes I made a resolution to write on my journal everyday this year! In past years I was sporadically recording personal stuff every week or so. More like a diary.
But developing a habit to write in a journal every day would be extremely insightful and helpful, so I'm starting using one for business ideas as well!

Thanks for sharing you insights on kyles’s Webinar Nikoleta. Yes it is very possible for anyone to succeed with an online business. One just have to learn what it takes, dedicate quality time towards building it, and allow time for it to mature and grow. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts.

Thank you so much for the feedback, Jerome!
Yes, as long as we are patient, put in consistent effort and don't get discouraged from the time this process takes to produce results, we'll be fine!
I'm so motivated by all the success stories here in WA, and I know the process works and we can all become experts if we follow those steps! Onward and upward :)
