Do you have business questions that are stopping you from really progressing within your market? I know as my business grew I came across road blocks, big and small, that sometimes would put me behind schedule or just stump me. In this article I will answer two of those questions on product creation.
Do you have business questions that are stopping you from really progressing within your market? I know as my business grew I came across road blocks, big and small, that sometimes would put me behind schedule or just stump me. In this article I will answer two of those questions on product creation. First question: When launching a product that includes teleseminars and monthly send outs, how much of the product should I have completed and how much lead time should I allow? When it comes to product creation and lead time, I would give yourself as much as possible and the reason being is product creation for some reason, one way or another, always tends to take longer than you expect. For example, if it is a 12 month course, I would give yourself at least a three to four month buffer and then I would stay ahead three to four months throughout the entire course. I think that way that is a real safe zone. That is the reality of product development, you never really know how long it will take you because of the unforeseen difficulties. It would be great to get products created really quickly, but usually there are hiccups along the way with delivery or packaging. You have to make sure you give yourself a buffer zone so you will be able to get the product created as quick as possible. To just get the product completed and staying ahead should be your number one focus and keeping that buffer zone will help you do just that. Here's the second question: Do you have any suggestions for a quick way to create a product to sell on a topic that I am an expert on. There are a variety of ways to do this, even when you may not be an expert on the topic. A teleseminar series is a very easy and fast method of creating a product. From personal experience, I have just started selling courses for the first time as a a teleseminar series. From those calls I can then turn them into a series of products. Those calls that not been created before, but as soon as they were conducted, those calls were transcribed and a course was built from there. This is definitely something you can do and a method that I would suggest to make things easier is to map out what content you want to teach about and put it in a modular format. This model makes it easy to create content. Once you have a major topic for a particular module you can then dive deep into all the individual strategies that fit under that category. You can really crank out a lot of valuable information pretty quickly this way and by using the call itself to create the content you don't have to have it ahead of time.
