HELLO,

I would like to publish a buyers guide. Unfortunately, I'm having difficulty gathering info and pics on products(new and exclusive). Does anyone have any advice for me?

Thanks for responding.The buyers guide would feature men's clothing, urban and conservative. It will also provide info reguarding new electronic devices(hopefully b4 it's released). I know what market I'm targeting, but no idea where to start.(frowning) pleeez help.

Well, let's start at the start . . .
How come you want to publish this Buyer's Guide? What unique purpose do you feel this guide would serve? Who do you envision reading it, and what do those people currently need or want that only this guide would offer (or that it would offer "better" than any other source)?

I guess what im really asking is referring to content resources. I dont know how to get content. For example: There are several denim labels that are going to debut limited edition jeans. How would i get Pics and info about those jeans b4 they are released to the market. I need a heads up on Hot prodcuts(clothing and electronic). Im currently tweeking the buis plan and I have partial funding. My main issue is having a continuous flow of venders to feature.

Ah, I see -- I think you'll really want to start attending the relevant trade shows. For example, I've been to the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas as a speaker. It would be an essential event for you to attend if you want to gather and publish information about new electronics products. For more info, visit:

I'm less familiar with the clothing industry, but I'm sure someone in the community could recommend the appropriate trade shows for that.

Hope this helped a little.
