It takes time and money to make something new and there are ZERO guarantees that you\u2019ll find a substantial audience at the end of it.<\/p>\n<p>That doesn\u2019t mean you shouldn\u2019t attempt to turn your idea into a product \u2013 in fact, you may have already done so \u2013 it simply means you need to avoid resting the entire future of your success on a single creation.<\/p>\n<p>In the past, we\u2019ve talked about the \u201cOne and Done\u201d phenomenon, where online business owners attempt to sell their main product during the first contact with a prospect. Some will buy, the vast majority won\u2019t \u2013 either way, you get ONE shot and then you\u2019re DONE.<\/p>\n<p>By contrast, if you entice your prospects onto your mailing list via a high-value freemium, you get multiple opportunities to close a sale.<\/p>\n<p>But \u201cOne and Done\u201d comes in lots of varieties. Resting all your hopes on the product you\u2019re creating is one of them. Being entirely dependent on an untried, untested product is not only a recipe for disappointment, it\u2019s also unnecessary.<\/p>\n<p>The formula we laid out in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.genesisdigital.co\/blog\/learn\/marketing\/traffic-advertising\/formula-for-successful-business\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">previous article<\/a> grows your mailing list and generates income even if you don\u2019t have a product of your own to sell. This is one of the reasons why promoting products is such an essential foundation. It brings in some income to keep you afloat, while building a relevant audience of prospects that you can eventually introduce to your product.<\/p>\n<h3><b><i>The question is\u2026 When?<\/i><\/b><\/h3>\n<p>How long should your prospects sit on your mailing list before you introduce them to your product?<\/p>\n<p>I recommend, at minimum, <b>you wait 30 days<\/b>. You need at least that amount of time to build authority and earn the trust and respect of your audience.<\/p>\n<p>Jump to your main product any earlier and you also risk degrading the perception of your freemium. Remember that your freemium should be so good that your prospects should need time to absorb and use what you\u2019ve given them.<\/p>\n<p>But if the minimum is 30 days, what\u2019s the maximum length of time you should wait?<\/p>\n<p>And the answer to THAT question is that there really isn\u2019t one.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019ve decided to create your own product, don\u2019t feel as if you have to be in a rush to bring it to market. If you\u2019re constantly creating new funnels, the period of time in which you wait is serving to grow your list of subscribers and develop your relationship with them.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, waiting a little longer than you might otherwise increases the likelihood of your product finding success.<\/p>\n<h2><b>Market Research \u2013 Better Than Free <\/b><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3608\" src=\"https:\/\/www.genesisdigital.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/stack-the-marketing-deck-in-your-favor.jpg\" alt=\"Stack The Marketing Deck In Your Favor\" width=\"1628\" height=\"1167\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.genesisdigital.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/stack-the-marketing-deck-in-your-favor.jpg 1628w, https:\/\/www.genesisdigital.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/stack-the-marketing-deck-in-your-favor-600x430.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.genesisdigital.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/stack-the-marketing-deck-in-your-favor-1024x734.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.genesisdigital.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/stack-the-marketing-deck-in-your-favor-300x215.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.genesisdigital.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/stack-the-marketing-deck-in-your-favor-696x499.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.genesisdigital.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/stack-the-marketing-deck-in-your-favor-1068x766.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/www.genesisdigital.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/stack-the-marketing-deck-in-your-favor-586x420.jpg 586w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1628px) 100vw, 1628px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Although the success of a new product can never be guaranteed, some entrepreneurs attempt to stack the deck in their favor by carrying out market research.<\/p>\n<p>In its simplest form, this involves surveying potential customers to find out what their problems are, and what they\u2019d be willing to do (or pay) to solve them.<\/p>\n<p>Research doesn\u2019t ensure success but it allows the savvy business owner to shape their product and present it in a way that better fits what the market wants and needs.<\/p>\n<p>The only drawback is that this can be a very expensive process. Firms that provide market research services can charge tens, even hundreds, of thousands of dollars.<\/p>\n<p>But it doesn\u2019t have to cost you a fortune. The segmented lists that you\u2019re building through your growing collection of funnels are a perfect data set through which to answer the kind of questions that market research provides.<\/p>\n<p>This can be done in two ways\u2026<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><b>1. Talk to your audience<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Once you have a relationship with your audience you can ask questions directly by surveying your subscribers. Nothing wrong with doing that.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">But a more useful method of learning about your audience\u2019s needs and interests is by engaging them in conversation directly. Try inviting a cross-section to take part in a focus group or a closed forum discussion. You can even give them access to a Beta version of your product and invite feedback.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Even better, if you\u2019re <a href=\"https:\/\/webinarjam.com\/?utm_source=genndi&amp;utm_medium=blog&amp;utm_term=how-long-to-wait-before-going-to-market&amp;utm_content=&amp;utm_campaign=wj\">using webinars as a means to engage your audience<\/a>, you can hold live Q&amp;A sessions on every event.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">This is the main group of people that are going to receive the first invitation to purchase your product. Why WOULDN\u2019T you take the opportunity to find out how interested they are in what you\u2019re creating?<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><b>2. Sell related products as an affiliate<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Affiliate marketing is more than just an opportunity to generate some income while you prepare to bring your product to market. It\u2019s also an opportunity to discover WHAT your prospects are willing to spend money on, and HOW MUCH they\u2019re willing to pay.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">You need to think laterally \u2013 there\u2019s little sense in promoting an affiliate product that will eventually be a direct competitor to your product. For example, if your product is a private coaching course on movie editing, you probably shouldn\u2019t promote a book on the same subject.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">You might, however, find it insightful to discover how much appetite there is for movie editing software.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Market research that ALSO makes you money. That\u2019s BETTER than free, right?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">***<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3609\" src=\"https:\/\/www.genesisdigital.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/track-your-marketing-results-.jpg\" alt=\"Track Your Marketing Results\" width=\"1531\" height=\"1241\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.genesisdigital.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/track-your-marketing-results-.jpg 1531w, https:\/\/www.genesisdigital.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/track-your-marketing-results--600x486.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.genesisdigital.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/track-your-marketing-results--1024x830.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.genesisdigital.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/track-your-marketing-results--300x243.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.genesisdigital.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/track-your-marketing-results--696x564.jpg 696w, https:\/\/www.genesisdigital.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/track-your-marketing-results--1068x866.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/www.genesisdigital.co\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/track-your-marketing-results--518x420.jpg 518w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1531px) 100vw, 1531px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>However long you decide to wait, once you do launch your product and offer it to your prospects, be sure to track your results (click-throughs, purchases, etc.).
