    i'm a programmer and i'm thinking to create my own software and sell it. my idea is to create a weight loss diary. because i think weight loss products are hot marketing topic. the software saves records, plot graphs, calculate calorie burn, predict the weight loss and give tips to the user, etc etc. as marketing experts what do you think about this idea? will this software be popular, what kind of changes that i have to do?(in marketing side) and do you have any other idea about this kind of software?

    Im also a programmer and I think there are already too many websites and otherwise dedicated to losing weight as it is.
    If you do decide to spend time coding that however, gl.

    Go to a health Club and ask there members what they would like to have in such a Software...
    In Return you can Offer them a free Subscription for 1 months or So..
    This way you will get a ton of ideas :)

    For sure...the online niche marketplace is saturated with weight loss products. In my opinion, you're going to be dedicating a fair amount of time coding a product that most likely already exists...so I guess the big question is:
    Is your software REALLY going to be SO unique that people will want to use it and recommend it to friends & family?
    If not...then I think your programming skill could be used elsewhere.

    Best of luck either way!
