Finding A Hot Niche - Two Ways
Do you think you'd like to start an Internet business
because of the exciting possibilities it offers
for self-directed success? What product or service
should you offer? How will you keep abreast of the
competition?
You might already have a great product of your
own in mind and you just want to test it to make
sure it would sell. In that case, check out affiliate
programs for similar products. If they're selling
well, it's likely that yours will too.
Of course, finding a way to make yours especially
attractive will help you beat the competition. You
can, for example, offer free shipping or establish
an informative newsletter that will build a loyal
base of customers and fans to help spread word of
mouth about you.
FOR EXAMPLE, HAM RADIOS
Let's say you have a passion for ham radios. You
eat, breathe and sleep them.
Now, there are quite a few ham radio equipment
sellers online, but what if you set up a mailing
list and a monthly newsletter about the latest news
in ham radios that visitors to your site could subscribe
to for free?
And then, what if you also sold ham radio equipment
and accessories at competitive prices?
Maybe even "Tell two friends about my newsletter
here (provide a handy text box for them to type
their e-mail addresses right in there on your site)
and you get $3 off your order."
Bingo, two ham radio enthusiasts come to your site
effortlessly, thus increasing word of mouth and
potential customer base.
FINDING A HOT NICHE - TWO WAYS
If you're not sure what you want to sell, eBay
and Amazon Marketplace offer two means to help determine
current "hot niche" trends by going online
and simply researching top sellers.
Once you find something you think you'd like to
sell, your next steps are similar to what you would
do if you want to test a product you're already
passionate about, as described above.
* Check out affiliate programs of similar products
to see if they're selling well.
* If at all possible, find a way to provide interesting
content that relates to your product.
* Establish a mailing list and share your thoughts
about your niche topic.
BENEFITS
Not only does this give you a ready customer base
and growth through word of mouth as one of the channels,
but it provides you a way to test new (related)
products you may be considering.
It also helps you keep abreast of what customers
like, want and need, keeping your finger on the
pulse of the market so that you can make changes
as trends require. After all, your subscribers should
represent a good cross-section of the very market
you serve.
The possibilities are endless!
