Question #2: Are the people in this market irrationally passionate?

Before we ask how passionate the market is, I need to ask you a personal

question. Are YOU irrationally passionate about your topic? When you hang out

with friends or family members, do you always bring it up, even if no one else

seems to care? If so, that’s a good sign. But are there others as irrationally

passionate as you? Here are some of the things I look for to determine if my

market is irrationally passionate.

Communities: Are there online forums and message boards and social

groups dedicated to this topic? How about Facebook groups and fan pages,

YouTube channels, podcasts, or blogs with others geeking out on this topic you

love so much?

Vocabulary: Does the market have its own special language? In the

internet marketing world, you hear words like “autoresponder”, “split testing”,

and “squeeze pages”. In the health and biohacking market, they talk about

“blood tests” and “ketones”. An irrationally passionate market always has its

own vocabulary. Does yours?

Events: Does this market have its own events? They might be online or

offline conferences, seminars, summits, or masterminds. If events aren’t

happening in your market, you might have a hard time getting people to attend

webinars and training. If they are already used to attending events, you’ll have a

much easier time.

Other Experts: Does this market have its own celebrities and gurus? There

must be established experts already thriving and selling information products in

your market. You don’t want to be the first celebrity in a market. You want a

topic or niche with its own subculture already established.

Go through these questions as many times as you need to in order to find

the best market for you. I don’t want you to waste any time, energy, or money

going after the wrong niche if people in your submarkets aren’t likely to follow

you.

Question #3: Are these people WILLING and ABLE to spend money

on information? Sometimes people are WILLING to spend money, but they

aren’t ABLE; they are broke. Other times people have all the money in the

world; they are ABLE, but NOT WILLING to part with a dime. Your submarket

must be both willing and able to spend money.
