📈 SalesA focused live community: Sales for people who want results, not another feed
Interest in the sales community is evident, with the top search term "cold calling" generating 10,000 monthly searches in the US and 35,000 worldwide. The combined monthly searches across the category's tracked terms total 14,450, indicating a solid level of engagement. However, pricing in this space is mostly unpublished, as only 2 of the 18 indexed communities provide a monthly price, with none being free or under $25 a month. This presents an opportunity for you, as anyone who clearly states a price is already unusual. Your format of live sessions and video can cater to this interest, and your first members will likely come from your warm audience, allowing for a focused approach even with under 5 hours per week dedicated to this initiative.

14,450 searches a month across these terms. Ranking difficulty 18/100, unusually soft for a topic this size. Search volume measures interest in the subject, not willingness to pay for a community about it. Treat it as the size of the room, not the size of the business.
The gap: Pricing here is mostly unpublished: 2 of 18 Sales communities show a monthly price, and 0 of those 2 are free or under $25 a month. Anyone who states a price plainly is already unusual.
