    Thanks Gillian. You confirmed what I''ve been saying for years and that's knowing your customer is not something that happens before you start your business. Everyone says that it's necessary to know before you start, but that has never worked for me. I learned just what you stated, you start, see who's buying and engaging and keep growing and serving that audience. You are heavenly dear. 🍵💯📚💖

    Fantastic. You’re the first person that makes sense of this topic and I’m glad to say I did exactly what you said which is I focused on the product and the value… and the people kind of defined themselves.
    In fact… I think I defined the audience niche by defining the value one of which was… “helping people lose weight for life without needing to hire a personal trainer.”
    And then those who didn’t want to waste unnecessary money for life, and those who were motivated to change their life, naturally gravitated towards me, and they ended up being CEOs, business owners and high performing professionals.
    I will keep doing this for my new courses, thanks dear!

    This was a superb alternative explanation on how to define niche and yes, niche is definitely one of those weird abstract terms that means different things to different people.
    Niche is definitely not where you start... not even where you end up. Instead, I see it as a narrowing developed focus over time along with your mastery and understanding of the types of problems you solve.
    It's something we all tend to overthink, for sure.
    Thank you for the insights.

    @nicolinawerther ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Thanks for this. I have to say, I really hate niching. As a coach you can help people with so many things because we are changing mind- and emotional set which in return influences everything from personal to professional life - I sometimes joke that I could be facilitating organisational change, as well as personal trauma healing, as well as e.g. getting out of debt, childcare, starting a business and most of the other examples you gave. And it isn't even not true. I am trying hard to stick to a niche, but honestly - I wish I wouldn't need to.

    Great advice! I always hear that you should first niche down when opening up a shop. And it's hard to choose! It's good to hear that it's okay to not go narrow down the niche esp in the beginning, but still picking up a broader direction as to where the business should lean to. This would be my game plan. Thank you!

    This was really helpful and valuable. I'm wondering what your advice would be on how to proceed if one was proceeding without choosing a niche because of it being too early. Like, what things to do to ensure that although you haven't chosen a super narrow niche yet, you can still know you're targeting your messaging to the right people, in the right ways, based on how they would actually describe their problem.
    How do you find clarity on what problem you're solving before actually knowing that your system works for other people?

    No matter what you achieve, so far you are at the approval of others (capitalism / economy of popularity / survival of the fittest ) you will never any real have dignity. The only real dignity is to live off of the land that you personally occupied and defend, not depending on anyones approval. You are basically sevring other people, not your own ideas, because you have to sell yourself.
