Too Good To Be True? - How Do You Know If Your On To Something

2 replies
If you have a great idea for a product, how do you know if it will really work. So far I have started having my first online successes after months of failure. However, a couple of days ago I thought of a great idea for a product that I could electronically sell and to my surprise had absolutely no competition. Now i'm seriously thinking of putting my scaling on hold and starting this business.

It has no competition and a pretty big market. Is it too good to be true? How do you know that your on to something big?

while the keyword i'm targeting is not a direct "sales" keyword, I'M OR I WAS part of the demographic I'm targeting, so I know that there is surely a market for my product.

One side of me (probably the entrepreneurial side) is saying "take a risk and make it happen", while the other side of me is saying "if it's too good to be true it probably is".

Have you ever had a problem like this? If yes, what course of action did you take?

    Greg,

    Huge market..... and no competition usually means no money.... unless it is a one in a million opportunity...

    I would triple check there is real demand.... especially if it is an expensive undertaking.

    All The Best,

    Rich Beck

    Before investing a lot of time and money into this idea why don't you do some simple tests to see if there is a demand and something worth buying? Go to forums or use PPC to attract and talk to potential clients. See if it something they would buy before a full launch and SEO work.
