By following trends, you can make money.

A large portion of niches have trends. For example, in the make money online niche, trends tend to center around the newest methods, the latest social media fads and whatever is hot during the month. Look at JVZoo to see what’s selling and the Warrior Forum for what people are talking about, and after about an hour of research, you’ll know what’s hot right now.

There is a lot to be made by watching trends and jumping in quickly. After all, money indeed loves speed.

You pick a trend, do a day or two of research, write or record your product, and launch it. Yes, there are already a dozen products out there on this trend, but guess what? If you do a halfway decent job of creating and promoting your product, then yours will sell too, right along with everyone else’s.

You can even offer resources related to the trend or fad, rather than teaching about the trending topic itself. As an example, you could write about how to start that type of business using free online tools. Or you could create a directory of service providers on Fiverr that offer related gigs.

Watch the trends, see what’s selling, and then jump in. The most you can lose is a couple of days work, and you might, in fact, profit greatly.
