Another: WHAT, you aren't making any money? These guys are.

Thanks Gordon.

Been getting my site put together over the last few weeks. It's good enough now so I have a place to publish my creative output on mystic matters. And my techie brain is satiated enough to let other brain parts do their thing. When I have some hotsheets done I can set up landing pages for offers. For now it's blog style.

Looking around on-line there are quite a few places where people are seeking either to learn rituals or have someone do rituals on their behalf. This is true really across the board in the occult. Tarot, astrology, intuitives, etc... Some do and others want help from the doers.

I can definitely see a ladder of products/services or system to work within. Today I have gotten started on the first rung with a hotsheet.

My DIY Ritual Hotsheet (not final title) is going to be about 1-2 pages. Still working on it.

Got a paypal account, file hosting, and have an idea where to show up and intersect my value offer with their need. This is probably what I am least sure about in the process. I won't know if my value offer is of interest until people either respond or don't.

I am also not sure whether to charge a couple bucks for this Hotsheet or give it away. Ideas are springing up though for more Hotsheets so I am confident I can come up with other valuable Hotsheets to give away in exchange for subscribing to my email list. I am inclined to offer it for 2 or 3 bucks.

Hi Eric:

How did you come up with those price points?

What is your ideal crowd already paying for similar solutions?

Like you said, the response from the market is crucial. I think that's the feedback that should guide your actions.

The earlier you get the feedback, the quicker you can course-correct

P. S. I like your writing style too

Thanks unpinkpanther,

Price points were from reading suggestions about Hotsheets here on SOWPub and on the Warrior Forum. The idea of finding people willing to spend money made sense. Even if it was a few bucks. OTOH - I already know people do spend money on Astrology, Tarot, psychics, and such.

I need to hone in on my ideal crowd. Right now, I am researching what other businesses with clients are charging both for courses and services and the differences between them.

So it's not a matter of seeing whether or not there are people willing to buy in general. In this case, it's a matter of seeing if what I am offering is something people will buy and for what price.

Starting with a free hotsheet in exchange for an email gives me useful information fast. Plus, I can get direct feedback from my readers about where I am heading. Which gives me the ability to adjust what I am creating to fit what they want to buy.

Thanks again!

Eric
