Who Is Your Customer and What Problem Are You Solving?
Two important things to make sure you know are:
1. Who is your customer
2. What problem are you solving
To try and explain this a little better I will give you an example.
My first product that I promoted was a natural colic product for infants. The natural product would ease the stomach ache for babies, it would also help with the babies gas problems and this would lead to a happier baby.
I researched websites that talked about colic. I visited forums and chats where parents could talk about their issues, I borrowed books at the library... I have two kids myself so I had some real life experience as well.
What I found out was that my customer is a woman, mother, age 24 – 35... I created a profile of the typical ”customer”.
The problem I was solving was an emotional problem for the mother and the family. Not being able to help your infant is very difficult for a mother, she feels helpless and wants to do anything she can to ease the pain. The crying also puts a lot of stress on the parents and the rest of the family. So some of the problems I was solving by offering this product were:
- Help the mother feel good about ”fixing the problem”.
- Get rid of the pain and gas problems for the baby.
- Reduce the stress on the whole family
- Also around holidays when you have family events the sales went up. The parents want to be able to be around the rest of the family and relatives without a sad, crying baby.
So how did I make money with this site?

Hi I am a beginner and this is my first lesson. Thanks for the information. My question is I see "Tagged" with key words on the side of the lesson. I have checked them out and found more quality information but should I just be concentrating on the lesson for now and go back to the "Tagged items later?
Thanks
Ed

This is by far the best article I have ever read on the topic at hand. I am ever so grateful for your experience, determination, and willingness to help out the Wealthy Affiliate community. Especially with myself only having been used the site for a few hours now as a new member to the internet marketing community.

I love how you referenced a specific business venture, and broke down your target customer (Age, Demo- & Psychographics) of their lifestyle to promote the need for "mothers" who have a full-time job parenting from home. Your target customer definitely needs & wants people to relate to, "help"/friends, and has time to use the internet for daily info/news, advice, and entertainment that can't hurt to adventure out (via Websites/Blogs) to benefit their lives @ home! Extremely elaborate and helpful Veronica!
