3 key concepts to explore to build a killer offer
- Saturation

[Thread]
Let& #39;s start with some assumptions:
1) You& #39;re not inventing something brand new (like the very first video game)
2) You& #39;re not disrupting an entire market (like Uber and Lyft did to taxis)
Don& #39;t worry - you can still build a great offer

Let& #39;s begin:
Here& #39;s what we& #39;re not going to worry about: saturation
Are some markets saturated? Yes, of course.
Thing is... if something is, or appears saturated...
Your first thought should be that the concept is *validated*

Take Red Bull for example.
Before entering the US market, they did tons of research.
The "non-alcoholic beverages" market was full of competitors.
But instead of being scared of saturation, they saw clear demand validation.

By the way... Red Bull didn& #39;t invent energy drinks
So they weren& #39;t first to market
Yet, by catering to a proven consumer desire...
And by *differentiating* their offer...
They captured billions in market share

In the tech world, they use a term called product-market fit
For our purposes, in ecom, info-products, courses, ebooks, coaching programs, etc.
Or as an affiliate for those...
What we want to think about is *offer-marker fit*

Remember: we are NOT inventing a new market
You& #39;re looking to fulfill an existing desire OR to solve a painful problem
So saturation = validation
A "me too" offer probably won& #39;t work
So we want to fight saturation with *differentiation*

If you try to sell the exact same thing, the exact same way to the exact same people...
It either won& #39;t work... or you& #39;ll be competing by lowering the price
What we want to do is raise value:
Both objective and perceived...
And capture some of that value in a fair exchange

So what should you do?
1) Choose a market
Almost everything fits into one of these categories
-Health
-Wealth
-Relationships

2) Find a subniche with a specific problem/desire
Health example: moms with baby weight to lose
Wealth example: students that need a plan to start making money online in 5-10 hours a week
Relationships: recently divorced dads that never dated online

3) Research

- Discover the various offers that seek to solve the specific problem

5) Figure out how you& #39;re going to get traffic to your offer
I won& #39;t get into paid traffic (ads) on this thread...
But I& #39;ll say it can obviously work incredibly well,
If you take the time to learn media buying and have enough budget to test things out
