Creating an email list + finding a niche.

Hi guys, Ben here seeking some advice from some of the members of this forum.
I am planning on starting to create a list that I can sell products to and earn off. However, I haven't found a niche yet. When finding a niche, should I do what everyone seems to be doing? [Do only what everyone is doing if it is making them money, twist and scale up] For example, everyone seems to be very into the IM niche, should I start in this niche [Only if you are comfortable and can give good insight into the niche, else expect chargebacks and what not] I don't really have much experience in IM, as I haven't earned much, but I could probably play it off and re-write some ebooks in order to show my subscribers that I am legit, would this be a good or bad idea? [Use BHW to learn about IM, especially the psychology involved in marketing and advertising, we have a section with downloads on that very subject] Or should I choose a niche that I enjoy?[I can learn to love football, basketball, swimming, science, food, arts, women, games, etc and this has no logic for choosing a niche] For example because I enjoy badminton, could I do an email list that targets badminton subscribers? [Depends on if they want to listen to you] Would I be able to profit off them as much as I would in the IM niche? [Also depends on how skilled you become in mind control] And what is a good idea to start in the beginning for getting email subscribers? I have set aside a small amount of money in order to get this project off the ground.
Solo ads? PPC? Adwords? Ad centre? Thanks for the advice!
[Solo Ads are good for testing out sales copy and presentation (also known as packaging of the product), PPC is still the best for marketing and advertising non media related products, Adwords has the biggest targeted traffic, AdCentre you need to be careful as a lot of butthole sites show up that aren't in your niche, and as for a off recommendation if you really have built up authority you can go with movie theater advertisements and commercials on TV, mainly you can use press releases, article directories news sites, youtube, and many other forms of building a audience like media buys and social signals to boost your authority, Also try CPA and ClickBank to outsource a product to. ]

Thanks for your help,
have a great day!
