How to Know If Your Product, Service or Idea Is Destined for Success | SmallBusinessNewz
So, you've got a terrific idea for a new product, service or business. But how do you know if it's going to sell?
That's a question I hear quite a lot from my entrepreneur clients—and from random people I meet who find out what I do.
Now, some ideas may seem like winners right off the bat. And they may be. But you don't want to invest a ton of time and money based solely on an assumption. Because we all know what happens when you assume anything. ;-)

DEMAND FOR FOOD-SAFETY PRODUCTS PROJECTED TO INCREASE
The demand for products that help ensure a safer food supply may see accelerating growth in the next three years, according to research by The Freedonia Group. Disinfectants, diagnostic products, smart labels and tags, software, and tracking systems are among the sectors expected to see gains as consumer reaction to food contamination cases and stricter safety regulations contribute to growing demand.
Worldwide, demand for food-safety products grew at an average of 7.8% per year between 2004 and 2009; Freedonia projects this to increase to 8.1% per year between 2009 and 2014.

Global Warming of Lakes
Temperatures of the world's 167 largest lakes have increased by an average of 0.8 degrees Fahrenheit per decade during the past 25 years, according to NASA researchers using satellite data to measure surface temperatures.
Though the trend is global, it is more pronounced in the Northern Hemisphere; the most warming has occurred in northern Europe, note the researchers.
Water temperature changes affect such phenomena as algal blooms, which can make lakes toxic to native fish or more hospitable to invading nonnative species, the researchers warn.
