What Market For Longterm Informational Product Creation Business ?

Generally speaking, it's best to wait until you've actually had some success running an online business of your own before your pursue the MMO niche. I say "generally", because some people got their start in MMO, and did just fine.

There's money to be had in hobby niches, so you don't have to go after the "big" niches.

The best advice I can give you is to go after a niche that you have a personal interest in. You'll be doing a lot of writing, so being interested in what you're writing about will help a lot.

I'll PM you in a second with something else that might help you, hang tight.

The big big lesson you got already: Don't go for passion, go for the money!

That's one HUGE step forward Jac'.

With "Follow your passions and the money will follow" advice, we got newbies here wanting to sell "How to collect rocks" guides... Not profitable.

Here is the process I always teach to my clients:

Answer those 3 first questions and create a list of niches...

1) What are your hobbies, are you really good at something?
Being passionated about something makes your products "vibrate", they are not just information, they're experience.

2) Did you get any results in a market?
Some niches require results. Would you buy a weight-loss guide from an overweight dude?


3) Do you know people who excel in a niche?
Think and Grow Rich is the most influencial success/personal development book of history (in my opinion). Yet, at the time of being written, Napoleon Hill the author wasn't successful himself.

What he did is he interview the most successful persons of his time. Digested the information, arranged it in an elegant and nice system.

HE SOLD MILLIONS. Even today you can find a copy of his product in every respectable bookstore.

You can definitely copy that approach.

Then, pass all of the niches you got out in the 4th question "filter"

4) Most important: Are people already buying in this market?
Follow the demand and the money will follow

The bottom line is: We can't decide for you, go for it and run! Take action, that's the onlyway to succeed

-- Joe Langlois

Be successful, be happy!

Some things for you to consider because I've personally created and sold thousands of informational products over the years in many markets successfully, but the premise remains evergreen.

Put the 'follow your passion' at the bottom of your list because if you've got a passion but no proven demand, then it won't work. If there's money already being made in the area of your passsion, then that's a totally different consideration, but it still doesn't mean you should jump in blindly.

Some people start by confirming what's already selling by checking reliable hangout spots for similar informational and educational products, places like Amazon, Dummies.com etc. There's also a wealth of valuable intelligence in forums where people seeking solutions ask questions...you are a typical example. Responding to those requests in the form of a product is something worth considering.

With everything that I'm sharing here, there's a lot more deeper work thatyou need to do, the good news is thanks to the internet, if you're really focused you'll have all the information you need to outline your very first informational or educational product in a day or less.

Where should your focus be? Make money online or not? That's a tough one and too many options.

To sum it up, the suggestions given so far get my thumbs up and havinf failed in starting a successful informational and educational business 3 times in a row when I first started I can tell you that you should do your research, select a model that will get you moving in one direction, and then take it from there.

I always tell my trainees, coaching students and clients that we are working together that the best advice I can give them is to FOCUS ...

P.S. Didn't spell check so any typos are a gift!

I would go to google and type in something like best online businesses to pursue. This should give you some ideas of what people are buying. Another great source is Amazon. Go to the best sellers category in different categories and that should give you some great ideas. Google trends is also a good resource.

Thought I should share something that I've made available since my initial response. I'll get to that in a moment.

But in terms of long term success, you need to make sure that the following apply, irrespective of the market you decide on.

1. ACCESS to the people who are your ideal future customers (prospects)
2. POTENTIAL meaning there's demand and also, potential for back-end sales
3. PASSION meaning that the market will be able to hold your interest over time.

I'll probably share more about this at some point but those are some key success factors relevant to your post/question that I thought I should share.

Now you can get the information I mentioned earlier on how to generate your own 100% unique product ideas here

It's all well and good getting into the big niches like weight loss and MMO but they are so overcrowded and competitive that it's tough particularly for a newbie. Plus you can't just offer general weight loss advice, it's not specific enough. You need to niche down to offer specific advice to a specific type of person, i.e. weight loss for mums who have recently given birth or weight loss for women wanting to lose 10 pounds before getting married. Or if in the make money niche then drill down into something like list building and email marketing. People think by keeping it general they'll attract more people but often the opposite is true and you end up just giving wishy washy information that doesn't really cater to anyone.

People are saying to avoid going after your hobbies as there's no money in them. This isn't necessarily true. On the surface it seems like for a lot of niches there isn't really much money to be made because they aren't typical buyer markets like weight loss and make money BUT actually there's stuff to be sold in almost every niche but you'd only know it if you were knowledgeable in the niche already or got stuck in and started getting involved...eventually when you're in deep enough opportunities arise.

Personally I think if you're going to create an info product try and create something that is evergreen and can be sold for years to come otherwise you need to continually be doing new product launches to keep money coming in.

This is a must read for anyone looking to get into info product selling: http://www.fourhourworkweek.com/blog...bs-mike-geary/
