The Simplest Way To Know What Your Market REALLY Wants

Content Creation

Here’s a thought – If your marketing is not in alignment with what your market wants -You’re headed towards failure! It’s a simple truth..

The great thing is that there’s no science behind knowing EXACTLY what they want and delivering it to them. All it takes is a little bit of work and 2 simple questions. I’m gonna make this once really, really short ’cause I gotta get back to creating Social Control for you guys..

The Simplest Way To Know Your Market’s Wants

The first thing you need to do is figure out WHAT YOU WANT TO ASK:

Here are some suggestions for market research.

What frustrates you the most about [Insert YOUR NICHE Here]?
What do you NEED answered about [Insert YOUR NICHE Here] that you CAN’T find anywhere else?
Complete this sentence: If only I knew how to ______________ I would be successful.

The next step is to figure out HOW TO ASK: There are different ways to ask these questions (FREE & PAID)

SurveyMonkey.com – They have a free account you can use if you don’t want to get a paid subscription yet. It’s a really good service.
MachForm – This is a script that I use to create my Question Forms & Surveys. It’s only $39.00 and it’s GREAT!! They offer one FREE installation of the software, too.

The last step is to analyze the results and determine how you want to deliver your market’s WANTS/NEEDS. This can be in form of:

a Product
a Webinar
a Teleseminar
a Blog Post
a Special Report
a Boot Camp Video Series

…and a few more ways. That’s it for today’s post, I hope you got a lot out of it .

Please leave me a comment below, and as always share it, tweet it, digg it, and stumble it – I’d really appreciate it.

Talk to you soon,

Hi Hector,

Thanks for sharing your feedback insight.

The best way to know what people want is to listen to them. Many times people assume, which is a dangerous action to take for a network marketer. In order to focus on the needs you must listen for them.

Hey Hector, great post. I used Survey Monkey for the first time a few weeks back to get some feedback from people, and it worked a treat. I have to say I used the free version of survey monkey just to get a feel for it and to see if it was something that I wanted to use going forward. It is awesome so needless to say I now have a paid subscription

thanks for the tips
cheers
Nat

Yo Hector,

Short and Sweet. Survey Monkey is great. I have not used it personally but I know people who have with great success.

I think it’s important to remember everyone is looking for a solution in their life. If you can tap into the emotional wants of the end user and can deliver it the fastest way possible, then you’ve got a winning recipe for success.

Hello Hector

What a great concept, deliver to your market what they want

I agree 100%, the best way to know what your market wants is to ask them.

Now you have me thinking of doing a survey

This is great info Hector!

I just learned in the MLM Launch Formula that surveys are a great way to find optimal business partners too! I’ve seen Katie Freiling flat out ask her followers the type of content they would like to receive too. If you want to know what they want, it doesn’t hurt to ask!

Thanks Hector!
