Attracting Customers normally assumed to already have a product or service of excellent quality and all that remains is to find your ideal customer, know where they are, put together the right message and go get them. But today I want to talk just this part, service or product we offer.

Because no matter if we have a really good niche, if our message is perfect for that niche market and if we are to achieve and the channels we offer the best return on our investment, because it all goes to fret if the product or service is not attractive by itself.

So how must be a product or service so that it is attractive to customers? What features should it be?

Here are five characteristics that product or service must have to be attractive to customers:

1. You must solve a problem. If not fix, repair, amend, improve or alleviate a problem, pain, condition or situation, why would people want it? Why would pay for it? There must be a hefty profit, recognizable, noticeable and measurable to buy and use your product or service.

2. It should be appealing to many. You may have done the best invention of the world, but if only one in ten million people need or want, you will not have many sales. To be worthwhile, you’d have to sell at a high price and then would become even more difficult to sell. It offers a product or service that many want, and sell it will be easy.

3. It must be unique. If your product or service is the first in the industry, that’s better. The truth is that there is very little new under the sun, so your product or service should be different and offer different benefits than it does the rest. If you sell a rose a different name, no longer a rose, but if you can sell a rose that never loses its petals.

4. It must offer instant gratification. If your product or service will use it within a year, why buy now? People do not want to buy seeds, instead, prefer the tree planted grown and bearing fruit. Humans are generally very impatient, and the media have made us even more. As customers do not want the fishing rod, we want fresh fish, filleted, seasoned and served ready to eat.

5. Must be demonstrable. You could say that is a law: seeing believes. For a product or service attractive, the customer should be able to see for yourself how easy it is to use or how fast you can get the benefits. The samples, complimentary sessions and testimonials help us to this.

Analyzing these five points, your service or product … is it attractive?
