People are always moving to a new location at some point in their lives and for a variety of reasons. The problem is that it is quite difficult to find detailed information on the new location so the movers know where everything is, and what is there for them. You can create a guide for these people and sell them in downloadable format, print, and DVD format. Give them all of the information they will need about the new location – schools, work stats, grocery stores, department stores, gyms, outdoor activities, local businesses, restaurants, etc. You could sell a complete guide for about $40.
Wouldn't a product like this be nice to take advantage of when moving to an area you know nothing about? Many people still move to different locations with their companies, for new jobs, retirement, or new military assignments that could appreciate this information.
Almost everything that you should include in these complete guides can be found on the Internet. All you will need to do is investigate and compile all of the information that you find in a convenient package for your customers. Your research will include what ever you choose to offer your customers.
Give them all of the information they will need about their new location – schools, work stats, grocery stores, department stores, gyms, outdoor activities, local businesses, restaurants, etc. People will want to know where everything is and what is there for them. Try to provide them with a simple map if you are able to obtain one.
You can help them with their moves by offering helpful information like which residential areas report more police calls and have more crime. Provide cost averages for housing in different areas of a city or town they are moving into. Include the average cost of buying homes versus renting too, so they will know if they should look into buying or renting. If families are moving with children, the parents will want to know about all of the local schools, where they are located, and how they rank in success with educating their students.
Knowing where all of the local grocery stores and department stores are located is important information also, so be sure and include this information too. The full range of businesses, parks, entertainment, and gyms are all-important.
You might also include all of the important phone numbers that they will need to have once they are there too. Phone numbers for the police and fire departments, Phone Company, utility companies, realtors, schools, etc. so they can smoothly make the transition to their new home and area.
Sell all of this information in a downloadable format, printed, and DVD format. Let the buyers decide how they prefer to receive their complete guides. You could sell a complete guide for about $40 a piece.
Each time you research a new area, save the information for any new customers that might want your services. After awhile you will have quite a database compiled to grab your research from, just make sure that you update the information regularly, just in case anything changes.
