OFFER DEVELOPMENT (not product development)
What is your Niche?

  • Don’t Try to be All Things to All People
  • Think “MICRO” Niche
  • The More Specific you can be, the easier and faster you can get it to be

Hard Topic vs Soft Topic

  • Make sure it’s a Hard Topic rather than a Soft Topic – example of a soft topic “how to Knit, how to lose weight, how to make money”.
  • A hard topic “how to lose weight in 23 minutes, 6 min abs, how to cross stitch for profit”   (Time or Money)
  • How to play the piano in 5 minutes a day
  • How I was able to overcome this sickness in only 3 days.

Creating your “System Outline”

What is the END goal for your system?

  • (Help people get to the top of Google Results)

Can you break it down into 7 Steps? 12 Steps? 15 Steps?

  • Table of Contents (Barnes & Noble/Amazon)
  • Modules or Chapters
  • Module #1 is this
  • Module #2 is this.. etc

Make sure steps are answers to what people are already asking

  • Research Forums to find out what people are complaining about/asking about – make sure these are in your 7 steps

Can you call these steps “Secrets” ?

  • Secrets will convert higher, but if you don’t have secrets, call them “Strategies”. If you can’t justify them as a secret, don’t use the word secrets.

Write a headline for each “Secret”

  • i.e. Step #1 – Picking the right types of piping.
  • The secrets of how to pick the right piping that doesn’t blow up in your face
