I’ve been trying to figure out the best way to make money online, and I keep getting stuck on the same thing—ideas.
Every time I find a business idea or solution that looks promising, it’s already being pushed hard by internet gurus. Digital products, AI automation, dropshipping, by the time I see it, there are already tons of videos, courses, and people copying the same model.
It makes me feel like I’m always late.
So I’m trying to understand how people get ahead of that curve instead of following it.
If gurus are pushing it, is it already too late?
Is the real money just in selling the idea, not doing it?
Right now I’ve narrowed it down to:
Digital products (templates, guides, etc.)
AI automation (tools, workflows, services)
Both seem like they have potential, but also a lot of competition and hype around them.
Main Questions:
How do you find ideas before they get picked up and saturated by gurus?
Is digital products still worth it, or too saturated?
Is AI automation a real opportunity, or mostly hype?
How do you validate an idea before wasting time building it?
If something is being pushed by gurus, is that automatically a red flag?
Would really appreciate real input. Thanks in advance!
