I’m very happy about this interview, because I got the chance to speak with one of my idols in Internet business.
I interviewed Chase Reeves, who’s the co-host of Think Traffic and Fizzle.
Chase teaches some great stuff inside Fizzle and his videos for Think Traffic are simply brilliant.
We’re going through a case study about building an Internet business that will provide you long-term income.
Resources mentioned:
Instead of trying to get rich quick, you should start building an internet business that will support you with long-term income.
Chase names 3 pillars you should take care of when you’re building an Internet business:
You don’t need to have all three in the beginning.
Just start writing about a topic that you’re really passionate about and that won’t bore you next year.
Over time you’ll grow your knowledge and become an expert in your field.
So there’s no need to be scared of not being an expert. You’ll become an expert just through blogging about your topic.
After you gained more knowledge, you can start building an internet business and find a way to make money with your knowledge.
Putting your personality into play will grow your audience just naturally over time. And then you’ll have people tell you what they want from you.
Personal branding is a topic with lots of buzz these days.
That’s why I wanted to know from Chase, how he thinks about personal branding when somebody is building an internet business.
The essence was, that personal branding isn’t something that you can get by using a sleek theme, nice images and lots of overhyped content.
Instead personal branding happens almost naturally when you’re putting your personality into play – somehow that sounds reasonable, doesn’t it?
Just focus on the content you’re putting out and on the benefits for your audience.
Then you’ll see that your personal brand just develops over time.
There’s a lot more content in this interview than what I just wrapped up here.
I can’t wait to hear your thoughts about this interview, I personally think that it’s the best interview I’ve done so far!
Cheers,
Jan

September 15, 2013The idea of 6 months of writing every day seems overwhelming, but I like that he promotes working hard. Thanks for the great interview. I got a lot of it and I hope to join Fizzle soon.

September 16, 2013Hi Jason,
thanks for the kind words!
Working hard is the one thing that I hear most often when it comes to being successful. Chase isn’t the only one preaching this, Gary Vaynerchuk is saying this almost in every interview he does.
Though it’s not something that we all want to hear, we all dream of the quick success 😉
Fizzle definitely is a great community with lots of excellent videos. They’ve invited only the best online entrepreneurs like Leo Babauta, Scott Dinsmore or Pat Flynn to teach what they’re best at.
Cheers,
Jan

This is an awesome interview, loved it!
And yes, this is by far the best interview you’ve done so far, and it’s damn good! So much value in there, and Chase is great. I need to interview him for my up and coming podcast 🙂
Keep up the good work!
All the best,

September 18, 2013Hey my friend,
thanks for your kind words!
I definitely need to thank you for encouraging me to join Fizzle!
That’s the only reason why I got Chase on line for an interview. It’s incredibly easy to reach out to people after you bought one of their products.
And Fizzle is even providing far more value than just opening the doors to the creators!
I’m happy that you like the interview. And yes, you definitely want to have Chase on your podcast!
Best wishes from Germany!
