Episode notes
How niche is too niche? And, how niche are you?
I know that's a lot of niches in one sentence! But it’s such an important topic that it deserves that many ‘niches’!
Any of you who listen to my podcast regularly or read my content will know that I am a massive fan of niching.
But it strikes me that a lot of people think they have a clear niche, but when I check them out, they don't. They tell me about their niche but when I check their website or social media content, they don’t show up as clearly focused on the niche they claim to be in. Why is this? Well, I think they are hedging their bets.
So, let me remind you why I think having and committing to your niche is so important.
