WHO WILL BUY?
The first place to test your newsletter is with associates and
colleagues. And, you don't need their subscription, just their
input. What do they think about your ideas? How much would they
pay for a newsletter delivered to their office or home on the
subjects that are vital to them?
The target you're aiming at is simply, anyone who will benefit
from the information you have. Not only are people in a specific
profession hungry for news,, but there are people in all sorts of
related jobs and organizations seeking specialized knowledge.
Everyone is interested in making or saving money. Although you
don't have to focus on investments--there are many such
newsletters already--you can point out the benefits of your
inside tips on how to find the easiest, or the least expensive,
or direct-to-the-source methods of attaining materials for
pursuits or sports.
Generally, you have a small audience target--about thirty to
fifty thousand people. But even a small percentage of that target
will make your newsletter profitable.
Extremely successful topics are new trends where people can't get
enough information. Manufacturers, advertisers and entrepreneurs
are all searching for the new to exploit. Depending on the
subject you choose, tap into those potential subscribers.
