We all know that knowledge is power. When running your POD business knowing your niche and your audience can make the crucial difference between making a sale or drowning in the sea of the competition. But, of course, doing good and thorough research takes time. So why not outsource it?
Knowledge is power
Not everyone has the time to get a business degree. The Heidorn Report is more than a way of outsourcing your research needs. It is also a way of increasing your knowledge about how to run your Print on Demand business.
Of course, only you can know what your business needs are. You have to take the responsibility for your short-term and long-term business strategy. Nobody can do it for you.
And yet -sometimes- it is helpful to get someone else’s perspective and expertise.
