Here’s a little story and lesson behind Evan’s “No Business Competition” principle.
Sometimes it can be a bit tricky to convince people to be on your side. Will niche-competitors trust you? Will your online competition see you as a friend or as a foe? It can be hard to convince your competitors that you’re not out to get them!
Working with business competition is not a walk in the park. See what Evan has to say about his experiences with niche competition and partnership.

Almost always, you can turn your competitors into allies.
This is a HUGE idea. It can change your business and your market altogether.
If you feel that you have too many competitors, then you need to change your mindset . A successful business owner will take strides to eliminate competition by creating business connections and join ventures with the very people they’re in competition with.
“Internet Marketing is a solitary business”
This is a common misconception and a destructive principle that can turn your work into an extremely frustrating ordeal. We encourage you to open up and talk to other business owners in your market. Open up to your competitors and work together with them. It’s the most positive way to dominate your niche.

Let’s talk about another significant secret that not a lot of people know about.
There’s been a shift over the last few years in how Evan handles his domains. There’s a big difference between buying domains and buying websites. If you didn’t know, it’s actually possible to buy an online business (and it’s domain) and make it your own.
This is a powerful Internet Marketing Strategy…
Typically, these online businesses are inactive so you can just buy them up and tailor them to your specific Internet marketing needs. You can re-activate them! This enables you to avoid a lot leg work and time that’s normally required to setup sites and build stores.
Lets talk about the difference between buying websites verses domains. Feel free to check out websites such as Flippa.com or SnapNames.com
