Youtube daily plus May 5 2018

Are you struggling to find the perfect niche not so worried in this video today

I'm gonna be showing you guys with top three

profitable shopify niches that you guys can jump into right now start making money and

you stay to the end I'll be revealing a bonus secret niche that's doing very

well for me at this moment in time so let's get into it

okay so maybe you're just starting out and you have no idea of which niche you

want to get into or maybe on the opposite side of things you might be

doing well in a current niche and you want to be able to break into other

niches and find more winners so you can expand your stores well in this video

today I'm gonna be going over top three profitable shopify niches that are doing well

right now this year now they've been doing well this year last year and will

be doing well all of the time pretty much because they passed the criteria of

what I would see as a good niche now some people call it niche some people

call it niche I'm from the UK I would normally call it niche but because a lot

of my audience is probably from the States I'm going to call it niche just

for the purpose of this video and of course if this is the first time ever

watching my videos hello and welcome please do like comment

and subscribe hit the notification button so you stay up to date for when I

drop the latest videos you do not want to miss any of the value bombs that I

give away in my videos okay so firstly what makes a good niche

first the thing is obviously of course the size okay you have to have a large

enough niche to be able to make money and it has to be scalable okay you can't

have a niche which is very narrow a very small very precise and expect to do you

know astronomical days because it just won't work so this the size of the

audience is very important you have to make sure that of course there's buyers

in that audience as well because if there's no buyers or no one isn't

actively buying then you know it's pointless getting into a niche where

there is not any buyers second of all you want to make sure that

there's competition now a lot of people get scared of competition again their

thing oh there's competition there you know it's too competitive let's leave

that one alone and try and find a niche where no one is competing look if you

try and jump into a niche where no one is competing okay you see if you go one

or two ways one you've found a niche that no one is competing in and you can

make a shitload of money which is very slim or two of course the niche just

isn't profitable no more selling in there and there's no buyers in that

niche so you have to welcome competition okay and if you welcome competition and

there's a lot of competition it means that there's a lot of buyers in a

specific niche so you want to be taking competition in to consider

when you're looking at a niche as well another criteria of course is passion

okay now if you can tap into a niche where people are passionate about a

certain subject or a certain thing then of course you're gonna start making

money now with passion of course comes a motion now it's easy or a lot easier of

course to get someone to buy something using emotion and passion rather than

selling you know a generic product to any random job so let's jump into the

screen and let's get on with it okay so when inside the computer now let's get

on with things and get on with those profitable niches that you guys can jump

straight into okay so the first one is gonna be gadgets okay now gadgets are a

very large market and it's not just gadgets in the general sense okay can be

broken down into a lot of different sub sort of niches

now why gadgets okay gadgets pretty much solve a problem okay they are there

there so you know purpose is to solve someone's problem now if you're solving

someone's problem okay it's easier to sell to someone who has a problem and

you have the solution okay it goes for any sort of marketing whatever sort of

industry that you're in okay if you're the solution to someone's problem okay

it's easier to sell okay and of course on top of that stuff has to be unique

you know it has to be cool it can't just be something that is you know old or

someone you know seeing it ten times before it makes no sort of you know

benefit to anybody if it's if it's an old products okay obviously if it's not

cold it has to have what I've put down here of course a WOW factor okay now

something that people have never seen before with Google have caught up with

with Facebook sorry of course people don't go on Facebook to buy anything you

see it's basically interruption marketing so the product that you're

selling okay has to interrupt someone path like someone's pattern okay so when

they're scrolling down and they see something whether it be a picture

whether it be a video or whatever it may be that video or picture has to straight

away okay interrupt the person for whatever they're doing

okay stop them scrolling there and then and then obviously if it's a video you

know explain the product and this whole solving of the problem okay and giving

it that wow factor and the benefit to the buyer of course you know again with

the picture as well make sure that the picture is engaging you know enough to

stop someone in their tracks when they're scrolling on Facebook okay

gadgets everyone was selling gadgets so you know some examples here of course I

liked all gadgets you know what we'll jump into the screen right now see if we

can try to find anything that kind of looks um fits that criteria tall gadgets

and of course you know kitchen gadgets is very big as well stuff that makes it

easier for people to cook you know no one likes meal prepare no one likes you

know cooking is a very long process but of course you know if you can offer a

product that makes things a lot more easier for the Empire then that's when

it becomes a lot more easier to sell things so let's see if we can find some

tall gadgets and kitchen gadgets I'm just going to open up a new Aliexpress

and we'll go tools

well here's one here that I've actually seen sell before so a few stores have

actually sold this this product basically it's a tall gadget where it's

like a universal wrench okay so people don't have to have loads of different

you know tall ends or actually socket should I say it's a universal socket so

it's from 7 mil to 19 mil so the problem to someone have doing toes of course is

that you know they might have that but you know what it's not when you've got

tools you pull out you've got an old box and you in your cupboard or something

like that and you've got loads of different sort of a you know ratchet

sockets and you don't know which one you you're putting it in you try this one

this one that work you try this but at this one you know and that's that's a

problem okay now this obviously here I've seen it before what happens is of

course these little nuts and bolts sorry these little pins here literally just

fit around the bolt you see so you know right about there you know it can solve

someone's problem okay all you would need is that product there and you won't

need you have to get rid of all of you you really want it's literally a

universal socket so you stick it in and you know you can sell it straight away

I'm literally giving you away you know top quality products here this products

has probably made you know a load of money for someone i personally not sold

it but i know that it made quite a lot of money with an advert that saw pop up

on my personal thing when i was when i was targeted forward it so you know

products like this only percent work and it's a kitchen it's a prime example of a

kitchen gadget and not kitchen gadgets rea at all kg okay and again with

kitchen gadgets that's very simple okay again same thing I'm not sure why use

them in there what the hell is he doing there but anyway let's click here so

this is one I have again seen people selling before basically what it is it's

a stretchy cover okay so instead of you know having to use loads and loads of

cling film okay all people do literally is they they can buy a set of these and

reuse them okay so what's the problem the problem is cause using a load of

cling film all the time putting in the bin you know if you if you're green in

your Green blah blah blah malarkey and obviously

he's saving the planet not using much wastage etc these are reusable and you

can use these over and over again okay a video you know if you can find a decent

video of this in action you know you're gonna solve someone's problem like a

cause kitchen people will have this problem again guys this is a fantastic

product that has made a lot of money for another marketer out there so you just

got to get real creative with things so that's the first kind of top niche that

I cover again there's no sort of seasonal it's not seasonal at all it

will always be there okay second of all of course is the beauty and healthcare

niche now again same sort of thing you have to be solved in someone's issue I

don't want to say problem because people you know might get upset stuff like that

but okay someone's issue you know if they've got bags into their eyes or you

know people who have sort of acne confidence you know stuff like that

people you know those sorts of things can you know people want to feel better

about themselves all the time so while there's massive brands out there okay

making millions in a beauty be in the beauty next UK because you know people

generally want to look good you know it's just the way it's just his way

society years now so you know making people feel good about themselves and if

you've got a product that makes people feel good about themselves and you can

demonstrate that you know with video eyes like I mentioned and it's a huge

huge niche okay multi-million pound companies you can you only literally

need no point not one percent of that market to start making money okay and

he's putting the product directly input in people's face with the Facebook ads

or influencers or whatever it may be okay whereby you're gonna get sales okay

now looking at some examples of those I know everyone and their grandma must

have seen this on Facebook if not I don't know where you've kind of been but

this one here of course you know if you get any to drop shipping or you doing

Facebook ads you've probably seen this one okay this black mask

okay pulls out you pause you put it on everyone might have seen that funny

video where the woman's pulling it off and she absolutely screams a head off

this is that mask so again it solves someone's problems again someone's issue

who's got blocked pores or something like that you know they put their mask

on they take it off and they look Jennifer Lopez when they finish with it

so to say or something like that but anyway that sort of thing Sal's okay

moving on again the Pore Cleanser i think this is a machine thing again

these things here there was a video that I've seen before it kind of sucks out

people's blackheads disgusting video but again it's interruption marketing okay

people will see that now we're at a quick curious as human beings okay so

you know when we see something that doesn't look you know nice lures a bit

gory our natural instinct is is to watch it okay it critters crazy as it sounds

okay we want to watch it okay and stuff like this although it kind of songs

you're not going against Facebook's you know terms of conditions which is

showing anything so extremely graphic okay these sorts of things sound okay so

this was the Pore Cleanser machine I think it sucks out blackheads like I

mention from people's face okay so again that's the beauty niche moving on of

course pets now pets may seem cliche in dropshipping okay loads of people loads

of people do do the pet niche and like I mentioned of course competition is good

with a with with an it within a niche okay there's competition there's people

making money okay that's the main important thing and of course the size

is massive pets itself is massive but in in pets as a general you can niche down

so sort of cats you know dogs of course even horses okay listen

it's a massive niche you know and again people are super super super super

passionate about pets okay you will never find a bunch of people more

passionate than people who like pets okay and it's cooked of course with that

it has attached it evokes emotional people who absolutely love their dogs

and love their pets if you've got a pet at home you know I'm sure you love your

cat love your dog they're practically part of the family okay

so it's easier to sell to those people it still works

okay it's not saturated at all you've just got to get very creative with the

products you know you can think more about personalization as well so quite a

bit of personalized personalized sorry cat products before

you know and you know those things work that's what you can tap into you just

got to get really creative instead of selling the usual sort of cat bracelets

and those sorts of things if you're trying to sell those you know nine times

out of ten it won't work you've got to start thinking outside the box you

really have so you know I've done a real quick search you know this is unusual

I've never seen it before it's like a cat tea I don't even know what it is

it's a cat tea infuser I wouldn't know what it is good auntie believe it or not

so this is a product that can work okay looks cute cat lovers and again another

thing I'll scroll down a saw where are they

cat spoons again these were doing very well for people so these are not common

things that people will see in shops as well okay they wouldn't generally go to

a shop and see sort of things like that so when you put like cat's spoon cutlery

set okay in front of people who love cats okay it stops them dead in their

tracks and that's the most important thing that's what's valuable that's what

gets them to click through onto your product page whereby obviously your

product page is there to then sell the product okay but you've got to make sure

that the product itself is you know it stands out it's unique it's cool okay or

invokes someone's passion and emotion so these sorts of things here are cool

again relatively cheap as well and because they're so unique you can put on

a higher price to those because you know you wouldn't find it in your local shop

people won't just go to the local Walmart and find these things they have

to you know the only way they can kind of find these things is through you know

Facebook or these sorts of places where your marketing and on your website so

again very good products to to sell so I'll put down there of course you know

you can go into sub breeds as well pitbulls Doberman pugs you know cat

quickly like I've mentioned now onto my bonus niche so if you stay for the video

congratulations well done but it's gonna be babies babies and kids

okay it's a massive massive niche okay very very profitable as well understand

personally I've made quite a bit of money inside this niche

okay and it's a great one to kind of look at of course and try and get into

if of course if you wanted to again is super passionate okay and again it's

emotional now copying mention you throughout this video okay

people love kids babies okay if you've got a mom who's just literally just had

a kid a baby okay that is literally their life and soul

okay they will do anything to protect it that will do anything for okay that is

literally you know their life or so okay so selling a product which will benefit

their kid or benefit the mom okay he's gonna help you know their life their

baby's life a little bit more easier and again cute things always catch people's

attention so if you've got a cute you know babysat a cute clothing or

something like that okay people wouldn't actually click on it and it's a niche

that's always gonna be around a cake because everyone knows someone who is

having a baby or who is at least even had a baby or are expecting a baby can't

everyone sort of know someone that fits into one of those two things so it's not

gonna be one of those things that that go up will go down I'm all about

snitches that are here for good that are long sustainable the sort of trans thing

you know and seasonal niches don't get me wrong you can make a lot of money in

those niches but they're just personally not for me so yeah that quick just to do

a quick example of these ones for confine them so here's one kind of a

baby anti-roll pillow as you can see it stops the kid from rolling over onto his

belly or whatever it may be again he solves a problem you know it looks cute

as well so stuff like this works and Nancy Robert ed protects her as well I

think I saw another product which was pretty cool

as well so this thing here which is I believe is like a baby head pillow so

again look super cute super cute kid I think what it does is obviously if you

sit the baby up I'm guessing here if there's any moms watching this please do

feel free to correct me in the comments but I think if the kid lies down there

make sure that the kid doesn't hit their head okay so it solves it solves a

problem again 100% totally wrong but going from a

picture I'm guessing what that actually does so remember guys please do get

creative with things okay try to think outside the box don't just jump into one

niche and then jump into another and jump into another jump into another try

to stick to one you know or pick two or three that you want to go out and then

start looking for products within those two or three okay then obviously of

course test as many products as you can within that niche and then obviously if

it does if one of them doesn't work out it's totally fine just move on to a next

one and then put your focus into that because that way you're gonna get a lot

more feel for the niche itself and of course you'll learn more of what

actually sells and once you know what sort of product sells to a certain

audience that's when you get better over time okay

there'll be a link down below as well for my free Facebook mastermind group

good stuff so get in there get your questions answered and mingle with other

DEKU'S HERO HEART! Villains VS Quirks PLUS ULTRA! My Hero Academia Season 3 Episode 5 Episode 43 - Duration: 5:09.

Can deku and other heroes beat this villain ambush? So what's up guys Foxen

here! For this week's my her academia episode it was gonna be really hard to

top last week's amazing episode. What's interesting is that this one started

with a recap from last episode no surprise. You had Deku and his 1 million % punch

from last week. It seemed like overall everyone enjoyed the freaking hell out

of it although I have seen a fair amount of complaints about the music choices

for Deku's big moment and to be honest I could see why. I do think the music

choice for the recap seen here in this episode gives you another taste of

another choice that works too. Let me know what you guys thought! But anyway as

for the next of this episode man Eraserhead it turns out that it

Eraserhead is not only fine but also of freakin savage and I love it!

This sensei is not pulling any punches versus Debi. Eraserhead was about to

break off all this guy's limbs but he got something interesting this episode

it seems like this guy is fire ability isn't the only thing in play here. It

seems the villains for those ambush are working more strategically which at

the same time has one of my favorite characters from the manga appearing, Twice!

Did you notice the resemblance for this character he's pretty much this manga's

version of Deadpool and yeah I've been having so much fun watching this guy

work in the manga so it's great to finally see him appear in the anime! Keep

an eye on him! As for what's going on with Deku this episode so after that

battle with the muscular this guy's body is just freakin battered but even with

those destroyed use those arms Deku right here is still thinking about the

other heroes but come on dude look at those hands!

Recovery girl is about to be one pissed off a lady when she finds out. Let's just

hope that Deku's not overdoing it. On the bright side hey Deku still is able to

use those legs for some super jump so all hope is not lost! Soon after this I

freakin love Deku smashing 2 to the guy's multi weapon sword. I'm thinking

that could have been potentially bad news but who cares what a trooper. By the

way I have seen a few you guys make a mention about this guy's sword it does

remind me of one of the ninja guys from Akatsuki from Naruto. It's not completely

the same but I could see the resemble. What do you guys think? Another Naruto

type of reference or is this one of stretch? But anyway part of Deku's goal this

episode was a success. One of the Pussycats was able to tell every student

hero then now they can use their quirks

freely. Although does it really matter I'm not sure why anyone would have hesitated

at this point right now it might as well be a life and death situation so if you

were in their position you surely do the same too. Screw the rules I got money

oops wrong series! Screw the rules I gotta save my ass first.

or perhaps like Deku save someone else. Anyway also interesting to notice

this episode was this little trouble in paradise between the villains. You had one

of the guys attacking Deku but this other guy intercepted him even though

Deku was supposed to be on this high priority kill list which is not a

surprise but I believe we new info. You got this sort of conflict happening me

since that was seen as his real hero by stain and therefore his followers. As for

some more fun this episode it was fun to see Bakugo getting pissed the hell off.

It's pretty understandable. A couple minutes ago you were told you're free to

use your quirks, then just moments later you're told specifically yourself not to do

anything. The cherry on top for all of this was them actually using "Kecchan" during

the transmission so of course Bakugo in the knew it had something to do with

Deku now. Although like previously it does it really matter? No not really

it's really not Bakugo's style to just sit things out and talking about

Bakugo it seems like someone specifically higher up has taken the

liking to him hmm Perhaps his hand dude is into blondes or the angry types? As

for the main highlight this episode they seem to showcase the b-class being a lot

more useful. You had that guy that could get hard Tetsu Tetsu and the other

girl going up against his poison dude. For some reason this guy came prepared

with a gun but didn't really matter both of them went Plus Ultra this mustard

villain kid which talked too much by the way.

Anyway asked for the end of this he had the dark shadow guy he going berserk. The

preview mentioned something about him losing control of his shadow buddy but

they did already hint about this problem way back in my hero academia season 2

Right now I'm just wondering what exactly does he do like every other

night? Does he just sleep with the light on but

anyway let me hear from you! Question of the day what did you think about this

week's villain fights? How did it compare to last week's amazing episode and is

Deku screwed now in this battle? Also let's not forget which villain and

hero find are you wanting to see? Anyway be sure to smash that thumbs up and

subscribe! I'm doing these weekly reviews for my Hero Academia and I am trying to

do some other my Hero Academia videos soon too. By the way be sure to check out

my breakdown for Darling in the Franxx later today and also episode 5 for their

SAO GGO spin-off and I'll see you guys later

What's A Kuksa - Plus Lathe Mounted Belt Sander - Duration: 9:05.

Hi, Alan Stratton, from As Wood Turns (www.AsWoodTurns.com) The club challenge for this month was to make

a kuksa which is styled after a Northern Scandinavian carved mug from birch. But, I made mine out

of walnut and turned it on the lathe. It has a flat handle unlike the ladles. It also has

a flat bottom so that it can actually sit down on something.

You may notice that I have a glove on my hand. I had a minor accident and had a couple of

stitches in my thumb. The doctor said to keep it clean and dry. Well, how do you keep it

clean in a dirty woodshop, especially when you're working with walnut. I'm using

this food service glove. They come in a box of five hundred. They are cheap and they may

not be high fashion but they do the job. The other thing I used significantly in making

this especially in forming this flat handle and blending it in was this sanding setup

that attaches to my lathe since my big belt sander has been broken for some time. It consist

of, thanks to Leon out of Cedar City. Essentially it is a three inch square tube with the top

cut off with a hole drilled in the back to hold a bolt. Leon gave me this. I drilled

and threaded this steel rod to serve as the tool post. He gave me some inner tube that

is the right size. I mounted a piece of maple to a faceplate, turned it with a dome so that

it would track properly. This is on the lathe with the live center brought up behind it.

A small 3" by 21" sanding belt. Then a bolt through a poplar platen with graphic

cloth on the top to reduce friction. He helped me make that; it is anchored here on the back

and this is the direction of travel. It worked pretty well. It is low speed; it does not

have a lot of tension to it. But it served admirably on this project and enabled me to

do the detailed sanding around the handle on this kuksa.

So. Let's go ahead and make this kuksa. My chunk of walnut is only about 2 ½ inches

thick. Since I will be turning a sphere then hollowing, this would make a very small mug.

I've glued some pine to the top and bottom of the walnut in the area where the sphere

will be. Although I will eventually turn off the pine, this will enable me to maximize

the sphere without having to deal with cutting air. After rounding, I'm cutting a tenon

on the handle side. Actually, my handle end now looks way too

long. It would hang out too far from the chuck. I'm cutting a new tenon and wasting off

the extra wood. Now that the wood is mounted to the chuck,

I'm parting off some from the sphere end that I don't need.

When I turn a sphere, I like to guide my eye by first making an octagon. I measure the

diameter and mark the same length for the length of the sphere. Then consult my sphere

cheat sheet to find what the side measurement for an octagon of that diameter. I'm cutting

the end down to that diameter. With that end well defined, I can re-measure the length

and true it somewhat. I cannot go all the way to the same smaller diameter because of

the handle. Then after consulting my cheat sheet for the

distance from the end to the next corner, I can mark these two lines from their respective

ends. I also check the distance between them since that should be the face length.

Next cut the corners off each from the marked line to the small diameter I cut on the end.

For the handle side, I approximated the cut. Now split each face by marking a line in the

middle of each face. Then proceed to round off everything into a sphere. With some more

shear scraping, I get pretty close to a sphere. For this project, I cannot make it a perfect

sphere – close is sufficient. Now I'm power sanding at moderate lathe

speed up through the grits. Now I'm ready to form the cup part. But

first, I have to cut a new tenon., I'm mounting the wood on the face of closed chuck jaws

with pressure from the live center. Then cut a tenon.

Now I'm reversing the kuksa onto the new tenon. The handle is still too long so I trimmed

it a little on the bandsaw. I don't need that end tenon any more.

Now I can drill a depth hole to guide the hollowing. This is a long drill bit with a

handle for this very purpose. And I can proceed with hollowing. I'm removing

some wood with a bowl gouge before switching to a box scraper. Then to even out the bottom

corner, I'm using a round nose scraper. After sanding the interior, I'm applying

a mixture of beeswax and mineral oil since theoretically, this could be used for drinking,

I want a food safe finish. Now a trip to the bandsaw to shape the handle.

Followed by the drill press to drill a couple of finger holes.

My camera operator did not press record while I used my wooden jaws as soft touch jaws to

turn off the bottom tenon. But here's the aftermath. I left off one jaw to accommodate

the handle. I recessed the jaws to just a little less than the cup's diameter. Then

opened the jaws for the cup. They held just fine.

Now for the nasty work – sanding the handle. Thanks to Leon from Cedar City, I have a lathe

mounted belt sander. I made the platen with a fairly sharp radius. If I need a different

radius, I can make a new platen. I cannot put a lot of tension on the belt so this is

a low speed light touch sander. That's fine with me.

For fine sanding, I'm using a two inch disk mounted to the lathe. Then apply beeswax and

mineral oil all over the kuksa. There's my kuksa. It's very similar to

a scoop but a lot more sanding to have a flat handle. Gluing the pine was worth the work

to maximize the cup size and make the turning easier. At least I did not have to turn a

lot of air. I'd rather turn a round handle and avoid the sanding. But, I have to make

at least one to prove to myself that I can do it. The lathe mounted belt sander saved

my day. That's it for this walnut kuksa. Please
