Everything in life has fallen in place and I've gathered up the courage to try e-commerce again, I want to do it the zend***phin way this time though.
Somewhere, a long time ago, Zen has said:
1) Find a market (not 'a product that sells')
2) Find out what thing(s) they want
3) Find out how you'll get to them
4) Provide
Now, from an e-commerce model standpoint, I know the process of 'finding a product that sells.' But this time I want to 'find a large group of people with a common set of problems that I can cater multiple solutions for.'
Model will probably be what JasonR is doing, ish.
QUESTION? Does anyone have any basic pointers on how to go about doing that? I won't ask for an essay, merely for pointers. Everything I've read on google about 'market research' has been about 'go to terapeak to check if solar powered lightbulbs have a high sell-through ratio/follow your passion.'
And don't hesitate or pull punches if you think that I'm thinking about this the wrong way.
