Summary of "How to Find Your Niche"

Key Strategies to Find Your Niche

Focus on a Specific Group

Narrow down your target audience to a very specific subgroup rather than a broad category. For example, instead of targeting “men,” specify groups like: - Male athletes - Entrepreneurs - Stay-at-home dads

Identify the Problem You Solve

Understand the specific problem your niche faces and offer simple, effective solutions tailored to them. Examples include: - Physical therapy advice for male athletes’ muscular issues - Time management tips for male entrepreneurs - Cooking and meal planning tips for stay-at-home dads

Highlight What Makes You Different

Define your unique qualifications or qualities that set you apart from competitors. These can include: - Formal credentials (degrees, certifications, awards) - Unique life experiences or personality traits - Skills such as writing or a deep understanding of your customer - Distinctive personal branding elements (e.g., a memorable name)

Use the Value Articulation Statement

Fill in the blanks in a statement format to clearly define your niche and purpose. For example:

“I help [target audience] [achieve a goal] so they can [desired outcome] because my purpose is [your mission].”

This helps clarify your niche and messaging.
