Default Re: My best advice.

Gordon,

if you were trying to sell an info product (e-book) to a specific language and Country where pratically no one is selling e-books on that language and on the Country, what niches you would try?

Not these answers:

- Sell information on other format, like free Youtube videos with advertising;
- Sell to worlwide in English;
- Forget sell information, sell instead physical products;
- Forget digital, do it physical print book;

Thank you.

MikePT

I would ask myself WHY?

Maybe it is about what an info product is? I've found travel guides, places to stay, places to visit, BEST OF, must see and all kinds of travel information...on even the smallest countries of the world.

Maps. Events. Even coloring books or puzzle books fall under info product umbrealla.

But if I knew a country didn't buy ebooks, I'd have to ask myself why I was pursuing it...especially after a couple of years.

Other than that, I have nothing to offer.

Gordon

Default My two cents worth...

Hi Mike,

I think, at least when it comes to self-help type of stuff, most people buy similar stuff the world over...

They all have the same problems...
- romance / relationships / marriage
- money / debt / bad credit rating
- health / illness / pain

...and there are plenty of others...

By the way, I was curious to find info-products being sold online in Portgual (via "direct response" type methods)...

I did find this page, which I think originates from Brazil (where they also speak Portuguese), but according to Facebook, this was also advertised on Facebook this month to people in Portugal...

https://www.cursoapometria.com/curso...e-apometria-v5

This is the Google translation into English...
https://www-cursoapometria-com.trans..._x_tr_hl=en-GB

From what I can tell, this is some kind of course on apometry (which is apparently some kind of psychic therapy)...

The course seems to be a combination of pre-recorded plus live classes to answer questions...

Anyway, I thought it was interesting... (It wasn't easy for me to find, given that I don't speak Portuguese...)

Strictly speaking perhaps not from Portugal (as it's from Brazil), but they seemed to think it was worth also advertising in Portugal...

Tchau...

- Dien
