Consumer Research

One of the keys to having any successful business is to be in touch with your clients and find out what they really want.  Many entrepreneurial coaches have developed products and services in their coaching business and then discovered there was not a demand for that product.  Talk to your clients first and find out what their biggest problems are.  Then design a product or service that solves the most important problem for them.  Here is a humorous video that was recently sent to me that makes this point.  Even the very best ideas will not help your business if your target market is not interested.
