In this post, I will share a tool that you can use to uncover topics and industries that are exploding in popularity during COVID-19. You can use this information to:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Pivot your product so it starts selling again<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Start a brand new business\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Create a new service to fill an obvious need in your market\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The COVID-19 lockdown has shut down many industries. But it has opened up dozens of new opportunities. We used this tool last month to identify areas of new growth in the market. Then we adjusted our product positioning. And as a result, March 2020 was our best month of sales ever!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    How can you use it? And what is the tool?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Step #1: Discover topics that are exploding right now<\/b><\/h2>\n

    Exploding Topics<\/span><\/a> is the tool. And it\u2019s free!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    It searches the internet, search queues and more to find topics that are quickly rising in popularity. Then gives you a simple to use interface to find them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Example: This morning I used it to find these 6 hot markets:<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Delivery Services (instacart, doordash, delivery)<\/span><\/li>\n
    2. Baking (bakers yeast & bread recipe & bread maker)\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    3. Fitness Training (high-intensity interval training, tracksuit, whole 30, resistance bands)\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    4. Cycling (Cycling shorts, Peloton, Zwift)\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    5. Yard Work (robotic lawnmower, lowers, plants)\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    6. Face masks<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Spend 30 minutes using this tool and make a list of 6 or more topics that catch your eye.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

      Step #2: Brainstorm 2-3 ideas around each market\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n

      Now you have a short list of topics that you know people are very interested in, brainstorm product ideas for each market.<\/span><\/p>\n

      Ask these 5 questions to get your ideas going:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

        \n
      1. What is an online course I could create?<\/span><\/li>\n
      2. What is a service I could provide?\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
      3. What resources could I create?\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
      4. What app could I make?\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
      5. What coaching service could I provide?\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Let\u2019s look at a few examples:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

        Example #1. Delivery Services\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
