Do you want relationships, trust, respect, name recognition and referrals? Would you like for your prospect to make the decision to do business with you before they know they will?What did I just say?People make their buying decision in their mind before they actually take action. They visualize themselves in the free car offered by your company.

Who is LIKELY to use your product or service? One of the best ways to do this is to find a target or niche market.First we'll start with product.What product are YOU marketing? It is amazing to me that the biggest problem with most marketers is they have never defined what they are selling!Your business may have more than one product. You need to decide what product or products, or product category you like the best. The products or results you get passionate about are usually your betterchoice.Remember business ownership is a product with referraland affiliate programs.Go to your company web site, catalog, whatever medium you have and select no more than three products or product categories that excite you.You've selected your products or services. Take each product separately to find your niche market's motivation.· Write down all of the reasons people want, need or desire your product.· Write down all the fears they may have associated with buying it. ( won't work, poor value, breaks easily, tried others that didn't get results desired...)· Write all the fears they may have associated with not buying it. (I will still have the knee pain, lack of energy, won't have money to send children to college, will have to work menial job after retirement, have to go back to work when the children go back toschool...I will look chubby in my swim suit)Remember your prospect wants to satisfy a motivation. Your product is just a means to an end.· Write down all the features of your product and product category.· Write down your offer and guarantee.· Write down your service that will satisfy your customer's motivations. Now, with this information you are ready to define your targeted niche market. You know what they are looking for.On the internet, just like off the internet, people see themselves as individuals and want to be treated that way. As you go out into your target market areas on the internet and build relationships you are helping them make the mental purchase. They buy where you are pointing people to get the information. Usually that is your personal web site, or through your personal web site.Do you already have a targeted niche market?Take a look at your customers. Do they have anything in common? Do some of them play sports, the same sport? Are any of them fishermen? Do they do the same kind of fishing?One network marketing distributor for a health products company looked at the demographics of her downline team partners and realized the majority were health or physical education teachers or coached at the junior high and high school levels.
