I headed over to The Entrepreneurial Endeavor yesterday for the first time in a couple weeks and found a nice series being run by Brian. He read the article at Business Week entitled “Small is Beautiful — and Lucrative” and I supposed like all good entrepreneurs it got his mind going (as did mine- more will come on this later).
Anyway, Brian took it upon him to start doing some research and looking for products that are small and lucrative, such as cuff links, as done by the entrepreneur in the article.
Anyway, he put together a bit of a series on what he has found and I suggest taking a look at the posts.
Researching Niche Products – Part 1
Researching Niche Products – Part 2 – Mens Wallets and Billiard Balls
Moving From Research to Selling – Niche Products Part 3
Thanks for the link. Just to let people know, I plan on adding more research on different products.
If people have ideas for products I would be glad to do the research for them and post it on my blog. Just send the ideas to me at brian@brianbalfour.com.
No problem Brian! I love the research that you have already put together for just those couple of products. I look forward to seeing what else you come up with!
I have be surfing the net looking for articles on cuff links.
The article is right on regarding niche markets and I have been starting to get involved in the designer cuff link market.
I have high hopes that cuff links will make a comeback.
