Product Creation: Where do you find your info?

14 replies
Product creation can be many different things, but it's focus is usually to fix a problem and that is what I am thinking about. The question I've asked myself is, where do people find their information? Where do people find solutions to people's problems? Do you just google it and paste it all in a big document, re-write it and try making a product of it or how do you go about it?

      Exactly That's exactly what you should do. Thanks for that list, I've thanked your post, but feel I should thank you personally as well .

      I always print the posts to a PDF using "dopdf", so that I can look at them later without having to find the site again.

      As Mohammad states and Caleb reinforced, these are great ways to find info.

      I posted earlier today with some details on niche choices, but the middle of my post here:

      http://www.warriorforum.com/main-int...ml#post2534697

      gives more info on finding markets.


      You can also use the WF itself to find info about what people need/want (provided you are servicing one of the niches discussed here of course).

      Michael Oksa has a great WSO on doing just this. I don't want to link to it here, because I did that in a thread the other day and the thread was whacked. Just search for it or PM him.

      All success,

    Google trends is a great source. This allows you to see what is hot now and shows you what people are looking for in the moment.

    Ebay's best seller.
    People go to ebay to buy and to buy only. This shows you what buyers prefer and is a great place to start.

    Amazon's best selling. This is similar to ebay. Get a quick peek what people really want.

    43things. 43Things is one of the world's largest goal-setting community. You can learn where people want to go then help them get there.

    Forums and message boards are always great. I believe yahoo answers was already mentioned as well.

    Another way is to simply go to clickbank and search by gravity. This shows what is popular. Looking at what is already selling is key.

    And ... er ... books!

    Personally I've only created products in niches I know well and have tons of books on as well. So in addition to the resources mentioned ... old skool books (and magazines).

      Where do I find content?

      In addition to looking at leading books, articles & information that already exists...

      1. Look at current and past research studies. One of the main values you can provide as an infoproduct creator is to pull together the latest research on a topic (say weight loss, improving memory, fighting acne, stay motivated, etc...) and pull out the most useful and applicable parts of that research.

      In other words, you look at 10 of the most recent studies done on the link between stress and weight loss, summarize the findings and then draw some conclusions that are useful for your prospects.

      2. Ideally you can draw on some personal and/or expert opinion. Once I put together a training or step-by-step system for an infoproduct, I will look for validation - sometimes that means interviewing an expert(s), other times it means trying something myself (in the case of a marketing system or health system), or it could mean trying it out on some early adopters who can then give you endorsements based on results.

      3. What is CRITICAL when you create your info product is to a) begin with a desired outcome in mind b) research content (websites, blogs, magazines, existing books, research studies, etc...) to help develop a step-by-step process that will work best to help them acheve that end result (it doesn't have to be perfect at this point, but based on research is good), c) get support for your unique system by either getting expert opinion or content through interviews, getting endorsements, trying it yourself, etc...

      As you may gather from reading this, a system like this can produce very high-end info products as well as low-cost products and is designed to set you up in your niche for really big profits...you are creating your own unique system for helping your prospects achieve major success...and for that they will pay you well.

        This is a fine suggestion.The truth is that all of the ideas suggested here are very useful indeed.

        But you have to avoid information overload.

        Taking action and writing what you intend to write is the best way to create your info product.

        Then give it out to those who are known experts and other people who are interested in that niche for them to give their opinions which will usually be of great help to you.

    Information is everywhere. I recommend buying a product product creation like infoprodigy or look it up. Some of this info you can find on blogs and different forums but if you want it all in one package step by step, than buy a product.

    Whenever I need to find out about a specific Topic/Product/Resource or solve a problem etc, the first place I come to is here on the Warrior Forum.

    So many knowledgable people willing to help others out.

    I also agree that Google Trends is a great resource.

    Best of Luck
