Hey, I'm working on this idea ...

It's a subscription site for entrepreneurs, offering all sorts of digital tools like tutorials, templates, business trends, case studies and business guides for maybe $97 a year

Think of it as a one-stop shop for business resources. I plan to offer a community as well, and I have been reaching out to mico content creators, and coaches to provide courses and content.

As an entrepreneur, would this interest you?

I'd love to get your thoughts on it!

Yeah, it's a grate idea. But you have to offer them something to integrate them with you

[–] macaoidh_@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

If you can show how you have used these tools successfully, or provide some evidence based case studies on how effective these tools and resources are then sure. Otherwise I think there are plenty of other resources like this out there, some of which are free.

Makes sense, thank you.

Too generic, get more specific.

[–] OutboundEveryday@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Content is free. It's on google, youtube, everywhere. For FREE

The only kind of people you can target with this offering are wannabe entrepreneurs.

Anybody who's serious about this is going to pick info products, courses and guidance, probably expensive ones, and likely very specific to the current problem they are facing.

The only people who'd want to read generic advice on various entrepreneurship related topics are people who are thinking about it, want to stay in the loop, but don't actully want to to commit.

These people are likely to be very price sensitive and even $97 a year would feel a lot to them (this is comparable to premium YouTube wich can presumably fill any future entrepreneur with enough content to keep indefinitely busy).

You would need something very specific - either an underserved niche, or a very special voice, or a crazy amount of credibility to make this work. I imagine someone like Alex Hormozi can charge that for a paid newsletter, but he's super famous in these parts and has been putting out quality original content for many years.

I voted maybe, but after thinking and writing this out I now lean towards a pretty strong no.

It depends how you present the content, but I'd recommend looking into alternative markets, for example, there may be a nice use case for mid-sized companies to offer their mid-level executives learning resources.

smart. Thank you!!

[–] MarketingIdeas-com@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

It really depends on the quality of your content. I think $97/y is pretty low for *really* good guides. Check out Reforge.com - they charge $2,000/y

I'm not an entrepreneur or pretend to be. But this sounds like every platform out there selling content.

A good idea doesn't get popular alone.

[–] EntrepreneurThen0187@alien.top 1 points 9 months ago

You are right, just need to find a unique angle.

[–] digitaldisgust@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

If youre not successful then no lol

[–] SaltMaker23@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

I'd only buy into it if YOU are en entrepreneur that makes at least 10x my yearly revenue

Around 1x if you already made exits or your businesses are much sexier than mine. (arbitrary)

I'm currently at 5M-10M$ yearly so I'm not very eager to pay to see things from people less successful than me obviously.

I'm definitely not a successful guy and definetly not "there" yet. So it has value what you are trying to offer.

But are YOU the guy that can offer it ?

Wantrepreneurs will most likely like your idea so there might be a huge audience over there.

[–] -oncore-@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

If I were you, I would attempt to create an MVP as a free newsletter. You can test the idea out and try to gain an audience that way. If you start getting subscribers, you can always use your free newsletter to promote a paid newsletter or website.

I tend to agree with the others that someone would pay money for someone with actual experience versus paying for curated content. But you could create a paid Discord where you have experts as mods or part of your team.
