    A focus group is a group of employees or current
    customers that discuss and brainstorm new ways
    to improve different parts of your business.


    1. They can give you new ideas on how to advertise
    and market your product or service to your targeted
    audience.


    2. They can give you ideas that could help improve
    your current product or service. For example, you
    could make it smaller, faster, heavier, etc.


    3. They can give you ideas for new products or
    services to develop and sell. For example, a new
    gift wrapping service for your products.


    4. They can help you solve lingering problems with
    your business. For example, you could give your
    employees incentives to solve slow production.


    5. They can give you new ideas on how to cut costs
    and save money. For example, you could recycle
    damaged or old products instead of trashing them.


    6. They can find new ways to improve your current
    customer service policy. For example, hire extra
    operators so you don't have to put anyone on hold.


    7. They can give you new ideas on how to get the
    most and best out of your employees in the less
    amount of time.


    8. They can give you news ideas for upsell, back
    end and add-on products to sell. For example, you
    could upsell a video when selling your books.


    9. They can help you find new ways to stay ahead
    of your competition. For example, you could give
    your customers free shipping.


    10. They can give ideas for raising your employees
    morale. For example, you could hold a party, give
    them a holiday bonus, give them a free day, etc.
