Researching & planning an info product
Find the best topic
First of all you will need to find a topic and niche for your product. Find a topic that you know well. Find a niche that is profitable. If you have knowledge about a particular topic, then you will be able to provide better information which will decide the quality of your product. If you already have an established website or blog, then you can leverage the traffic and content. If you are a new Internet marketer, then it is better, you can start anything you want.
Find a topic that you enjoy and not very wide. The topic may be anything. I you like cooking, the it may be on dining and cooking, if you like gardening, it may be on gardening, if you like computer, then it may be about various computer related topics.
Do a lot of research
Once you decide the topic and the niche, you need to perform lots of research into it before you create your product. Research is very important for many reasons. It helps you to find out the scenario in the niche and the topic, the competition, the available topics and products, the opportunities and so on. How do you do research? You read blogs and sites, perform surveys, participate in forum discussions, talk to prospects, talk to users of other information products, read books and magazines.
How research helps and why do you need it?
Research helps you to find out what people actually want and pay for. Now research will help you to find a position which is strategically the best for you to position yourself as the best. You should have an expert status or have information that no one has which will bring in the customers and the revenue. Does lots of research before you create your product, so that you do not waste time later after creating the product?
Identify your target audience
Do you remember in the first section of this post, I talked about choosing a topic and niche? Now listen one more interesting point- you need to find out your target because you cannot create something for everybody. After you decide on the specific topic, you will need to segment your potential customers.
The targets may be different for you or even for different information products you create. Some of the segmentation variables are – age, experience, geographic, location, society, culture. (During my MBA I felt attracted towards marketing and specially targeting and segmenting markets to create a marketing strategy. If you want to know more about Marketing read Philip Kotler’s “Marketing Management” book). Do you want to create a product for experienced people or for newbies? If you choose fitness, then you may want to create information product for expert bodybuilders or for people who recently joined the gym. It may be for women or for men. It may be on weight loss of perfect abs or for gaining size.
Once you decide the topic and find your target customers, then make sure to create a product that is very much specific to the need of the customers. For fitness you can create an information product such as “Perfect Weight loss guide for women after child birth” or “Getting perfect abs for new gym joinees” etc.
