By Luis Galarza - Internet Business Strategies.

Do You Think The Street Fighter Movies Failure's Can Teach You Some Product Creation Secrets?



Well, let see! If you are familiar with the Street Fighters classic video games, cartoon show, and comics, you may already know that the franchise released two movies one in 1994 starting one of the top action actors in that time Jean Claud Van Dann, and the second one was release this year (2009) title "Street Fighter: The Legend Of Chun-Li". Both films make money, but didn't hit the jockpot like they expected, which was really estrange, because the games are one of the most popular video games in the world and are consider classic collectibles.

Now is time for the good strategies and the bad strategies!



Good Product Development Secrets.

Something good you can learn from their movies failures is that they created multiple type of products that could be sold to the same and larger targeted fan based, all from one single product "The Video Game". First they turn the game into a comic, then they broadcast the TV show all over Japan and the U.S.. And them when they saw that the buzz about the franchise was still strong they decide to make a film.

This is great advice for any new or advanced online marketer who are focus on information products publishing and software development.

For example, as an infoproduct publishing company you can create an ebook or report, them after or during transaction you can offer your customers the opportunity to buy the video tutorial to get step by step demonstrations, also you can develop the software that will make the whole process even easier for your students, and why stop their, now you gut the opportunity to offer a membership base service where you and your team will do all the dirty work for them and make things way more easy. You see the picture... all started with one product!

Quote: "A successful product is never successful until you expand the profit
possibilities of such a product." Luis Galarza :-)

Well, as yo can see you can apply this same strategies to expand the profit generation potential of a product or service. Like Donald Trump said "Think Big, Think Expansive".



So Why The Movies Fail!

There can be different factors, and many experts will try to go deep into the analytic part of the situation, which is is completely irrelevant to what really happened. The movies failure can happened to any kind of information product like ebooks, reports, video tutorials, teleclasses, webcast, podcast, etc., they fail because the creators or publishers didn't provide what their audience wanted.

In the game, the comic, the TV show the main characters were Ryu and Ken, so when fans heard about the production of a movie they got exited, they were waiting for a long time, they when to watch it, and BOOM! The movie crash against the ground because they completely change the story that everyone already knew, and was expecting to see, but instead they got a different plot that put the main characters in second or even third place inside the story. let me tell you that was a killer... The movie was good if it had a different name, not Street Fighter.
