I'm on a niche that may have people interested on it who may not know that it exists. So, I decided to make some youtube videos to raise awareness, I tried to advertise the videos through reddit (no other free way to get quality viewers fast). I'm not in this for the long term, I don't care about becoming a content creator however my few first videos were good quality and I got a lot of likes and a few thousand viewers. I tried to advertise my business through the description but I had no buyers.
My goal was to hit at least 1-2 good sales. If the item/service you sell is expensive enough, you don't need a lot of sales, however it didn't work out and now I wonder if I waste my time with it. I'm the e-commerce/freelance type, I want to do sales fast, are content platforms pointless for me? Of course people don't go there to buy but still I can't believe that not even one was interested to buy…My business has stagnated a lot and I have lost a big portion of my costumers, I'm on the verge of changing my model completely.
Is content pointless if you want fast sales?

The demand of business matters the most. To put myself in your shoe, I first analyse my competitors. If your business in unique, it should be the intersection of 3 already existing well profit businesses.
How you got to ‘content must be pointless’ instead of ‘my content clearly isn’t getting across the need this customer feels/how good my product is at solving that need’ is beyond me
