You want to grow.

Where do you even begin?

First, you need to know what your customer WANTS are.

Rookie mistakes…

Building the thing YOU want…
Is quickest path to going out of business.

Failure to listen to the market waste valuable time and money.

Ask yourself these four questions before developing any product/service strategy.

1. Do I have an audience? Audience size matters big time.

2. Does my product or service solve the customers biggest struggles?

3. Does the market 𝐍𝐞𝐞𝐝 my product or service?

4. Does the market 𝐖𝐚𝐧𝐭 my products and services?

If you can't tap into that, you're in trouble.

The answer? Market Research.

Here are 6 simple tips to help you get started:

📈 1. Create a survey.
📲 2. Look at social media.
👩‍👩‍👦‍👦 3. Talk to people.
💻 4. Ask Chat or your favorite Ai tool
💰 5. Test before Invest
⏰ 6. Set timelines & deadlines

Don’t fall deeply in love with your product or service. Your ego will get bruised. 

Instead… Reverse engineer.

Imagine owning the best steak house restaurant in a vegan market… you’ll quickly fall to your demise. 𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐢𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐜𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐫 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐬.

Get out there and learn, dig into what your customers really want.

Then give it to them.
