On-line Business for beginners - Finding your Niche
You've heard it said before if you create your own product or service based on what you think would be a cool idea, THEN try to sell it, you've just completed the formula for failure.
Your job is only to
"Find out what they already want." If you find someting that people really want then it shouldn't to to hard to sell it. Just don't over do it on the content. They visited your site to buy, so there's really no need to over do it. Talk about the product and not what you your-self know about it. They already know what they want, it's your job to make sure they buy from you. Not the next guy that comes along.
" Find a hot target market," and see if you can make it work for you. Do some research,take at look at e-Bay's auction areaand see what some of the top products are that are selling. That might give you someideas. Of course look around on-line at other sites. You never know what you will trun up. Remember,Let your money work for you, not you work for your money.
The best market is comprised of folks who are passionate and addicted to their passion. They should have money and be repeat buyers. If you can offer them a goodprice on a great product, then it shouldn't be to hardto get them tofeel comfortable about spending their money with you, and reminding them that they came to the right place.Thats why it's importentbe able to reach these already "motivated to buy" folks easily.
You also want to know as much as possible about your starving crowd for what they're looking for and about how much they are welling to spend on your product.(you know, the going price. It's not always a bad thing to come out in the end with a small profit as long as you can get them to come back or tell a friend about this new great site he/she found. It never hurts to suggest for the to "Bookmark" your page or site. Sometimes it hard to remember the name to a web site. You want to make it as easy as possible for them to come back and visit. I have found out though my research it does'nt hurt to have a Domain name that starts with the same letter. (Dunkin Donuts- Kreispy Kream) Get the picture?
