A writer buddy of mine
told me
she was writing cozy mysteries.
Being an avid buyer
of cozy mysteries for a loved one,
I gave her some insights
on the market.
She then shared her story idea.
Her story wasn’t a cozy mystery.
It was a paranormal cozy mystery.
That has a completely different target market.
I told her to scrap my insights.
They not only didn’t apply
to her true market.
They could have greatly decreased
her odds of success in it.
Know your market.
That should be
one of the first things
you uncover
about your product
and service.
Ensure you know it
before you ask for advice.
