Hello, I have been think of exploring the following ideas. Any feedback very appreciated!
A) Courses Listing Website
Need: person wants to find a course* that meets their requitements.
* Like Languages, Cooking, Financial Planning, Dancing etc etc
Problem: somebody looking to take a course in my city goes to Google. There problem is that there are a plethora of results (my city has 12M+ people) and several requirements that need to be fulfilled: location, times, dates, cost, reputation. As a result, it takes a huge amount of time for someone to find the right school/course.
Idea: build a website that is a catalogue of all courses in the city and has all the necessray filters for the requirements
Business model options:
- Charge companies for a better position on the listing.
- Paid subscription give ability to enrich their listings.
- Free for x leads/months. Paid subscription unlocks unlimited leads.
B) Information product - Using Facebook to Generate Sales and Build Relationships
Need: Small companies need to attract more customers and build relationships to the existing ones.
Problem: small business have no money to hire a digital agency normally manage their fanpages, so they end up doing it in a very amateur way. One of the biggest problems is that the content they post interests NO ONE.
Idea: build an ebook or video course.
Current ebooks and online courses focus on the tools and MECHANICS (setting up the page, paid traffic etc) while I would focus on the right STRATEGIES - what kind of content to post, how to post, how to interact with audience, how to drive audience to sale.
Such content is scarecely available in the country/language I am thinking of targeting.
Business model: give some content for free and then sell the complete course.
Thank you.
