Hello Otatade Okojie here the first thing I'd say is lean in on your strengths and research, research,research. Research your niche. Research what your interested in, which markets you would like to deliver a product to, what you see as your strengths and how you can cater to a gap in the market. What is your unique selling point? For example Max has a passion for blogging and delivering content. He decides he likes we design but also he'd like to learn how to design templates and themes for blogsites and websites. So he does some research first,does a course, masters his craft, creates his own website and starts developing a database of clients. What are his potential clients looking for, what could he use to attract them, and have them engage him in a dialogue about his offering. Where can he find them? Through an add campaign,through a social media reach out, advertising in groups, advertising in magazines, chat groups, engaging them in the comments, posting links, introducing his services in chatrooms.

Hello Otatade Okojie here Marketing and sales will always be a profitable niche because they are relevant, they are key and in consistent demand. A marketing course on udemy with bitesized manageable and animated syllabus engaging content, illustrations, including one with sales , some data, and some analytic, how to strategy tips, and ideas, pitch ideas, how to turn around rejection ideas, how to close ideas, how to Monetise products on different platforms, and work the algorithms, will always be a hot sell. Audiences love this type of content. Sales challenges them, it forces them to engage, it forces them to connect, to step outside the bracket and outside their comfort zone.

Make sure it's bringing in revenue. Ideas and concepts are fantastic, and investors rarely, I've had two experiences where investors offered business loans or funding for a project. Yet in general most entrepreneurs would have to create a business concept with a plan both marketing, and plans for interactive enagement both off and online bringing in regular capital.The more revenue your company brings in, the more your likely to get a return, make sure you have a good lineup of revenue so the investor can see returns, business community, clients, partners, jv's joint ventures , colaboration partners. Have a ready business eco system if your smart. A great business is one that operates like a community, and has an active network. It will always be seen as a resource, it will always be needed and seen as an asset in one way or another.

Things I'd recommend.
Like other people's posts back. Comment and show genuine interest and insight, provide resources where you can, the Google algorithm and their algorithms will rank you higher. The more you show your an active member of the community the more you get seen. Show up to stay up. It's that thing where you go to church and all the regular church goers get special treatment,because their active participants, or the teachers pet at school is always getting out forward for stuff and getting extra credit, because he's doing extra stuff. Algorithm likes busy on any platform . Content is always king. Yet you must research the algorithm, know keywords, SEO, and research all the best ways to rank higher in the search engines. The higher you rank, the more you'll be seen, the more profile you'll get, the more profile, the more revenue.

Hello Otatade Okojie here a good place to start is by researching your candidate and looking for a gap in the market. As you are looking at ed tech, you want to create a platform where you can engage the audience and quickly capture the data quickly. Have a strong strategy for sourcing content and engaging your key target audience. What is the theme of the platform?
What are the topics? What areas of education are your niche audience focussed on ? Who is your demographic? What will they be learning on the platform, what will your platform be providing that they won't be getting anywhere else? Is it speed learning? Certificates? Access to work placements, apprenticeships, internships? What is your offering? What are the strengths of the platform? What is its unique selling point? Have you thought about the different processes. Have you planned it? From brand design, inclusion of logo, market strategy, engagement, content pitch,.promotional content and hooks that could encourage influencers and candidates to share promo messages.

Hello Otatade Okojie here it's all about content, engagement and shares. The videos are supposed to be minimum 10 minute videos.

I think the trick to crowdfunding is to make it interactive and have a good offering. If you have a magazine, sell advertising space, if you have a brochure or a flyer sell a space in there for businesses to advertise in, do an event and get paid for it, hold a dinner and get paid for it, host a speaking gig that is themed, a webinar, hold an econference ask people to sponsor you,do a podcast, sell some books, create a club and offer membership to it, hold a series of roundtable networking events.
Also actively utilise the power of social media, promote and ask others to share your articles post and content, tag people, engage people through messages. Ask to have sit downs through zooms, and do research and producing viral content. Remind yourself that there are people out there who would want to submit funds to my campaign, they just need to see my campaign. Go for ultimate visibility. Videos on YouTube, linkedin and all the other platforms. Videos are more engaging and more emotive be a storyteller.
