Companies that give away information on your topic absolutely free

There are countless companies out there giving away free information on their sites.

These folks are not in the business of selling information products. They typically sell a physical product or a service... and give away free content to build their e-list.

It can be challenging to compete in a niche where a lot of good free content is published by companies that treat it as a marketing strategy. After all, why should your customers pay you for your content when they can get it - or something close to it - for free elsewhere?

One strategy to use against this type of competition is to establish yourself as a guru in your niche.

Consumers want authoritative information from experts, and are willing to pay a premium to get it. For instance, anyone can compile information on conservative issues and politics. But only Rush Limbaugh can publish and sell The Limbaugh Letter.
