To know your market means first you have to not only know who they are, but also the size and if it is realistic to go into. These are some steps that will help you figure out what market is going to be right for you to squeeze into and if you can make a killing with your home based business opportunity.

The biggest thing you need to do is make sure that your competition is improving on their revenue. In order to figure this out you need to go to Google Adwords Keyword Tool and use this as a barometer for your niche. It will give you a universal feel of what the market looks like and although it might not help as much with an offline business, it is still a good way to read your interest.

First thing I would do is check out the average big prices on Google Adwords free keyword tool. This will give you a good idea as far as how many people are searching for that keyword monthly. If you have a keyword that is over 100,000 searches then you are getting into a big niche and that is probably a good place to start.

Second you should check the average cost per click to see if your business competition sees a lot of value in your area. You can make a boat load of money if you see that the cost per click is above $3 or even $5. Many people will see this as an opportunity to jump into the market, but don’t worry as long as you know the customer you will do fine.

You want to see how many sponsored links are showing up for your keyword when you type it into Google Search on the top and side of the search results. The more the better for you because that means that more people see money opportunities in that field. If you are seeing at least 10 then that is a great sign.

Next I would go to Paypal shops and check out how many different books exist on your topic. If you have a whole row then that is good. If it is only a couple then I would look to expand into a bigger market first.

Then when you have done this don’t hesitate to move on your product. It might seem hard at first, but with focus groups and surveys you can narrow your companies focus down and find the right customer.

Keep track of your results and use them to help start identifying your market. This will make it so much easier down the road and you will appreciate the information that much more.
