Market for new product?
I`d like suggestions on how I can poll and make sure a market exist for a new product. There isn`t anything out there like this so I don`t have anything to test demand and pricing against. It will be a collaboration of several existing technologies plus some new and laid out in a new format.
I need to be sure there is enough need. The service is B2C primarily but will also go B2B as features are added. I though about paper mailing postcards describing the benefits and leaving a link to an online survey. Anyone taking the survey gets one year free use. My problem is I`m unsure where to get mailing addresses or even if they will be good addresses. I ruled out email because of spamming/blacklisting and the extremely low return.
It would be simple to post the idea in several forums I frequent but then I contemplate someone running off with the idea.
I`m open to suggestions and would appreicate any comments.
Thanks,Brett

I`ll word the ads like a finished product, name and all. But once they reach the survey, there will be clarification of the product`s status.
Also, I will need beta testers. Once I know there is demand, I don`t want to get the same people (pre orders) to beta test. That isn`t their expectation. But maybe there is a good way to do that or should I go get a completely different group? If nothing else, where can I find beta testers?

I think being business owners, I`ll get quality survey input and then more input in replies to my post.
Gail, send me an email to `public at cygen dot com`.
Thanks,Brett
available for small companies who cannot afford to commit to our previous
30-day marketing campaign. We are now accepting only one week paid in advance
for a minimum of 2 hours per day of calling to set your appointments. The fee
is generally $30.00 an hour. However, this also is negotiable. I hope that this
will make it easier on small businesses to start their marketing on a much less
out of pocket expense. Please let me know if this is more feasible for you and
we can begin your campaign. I look forward to talking to you regarding your
exact needs and budget.
Sincerely,
