Picking Your Niche P&P:
To edit File -> Make a copy
Again, to begin with, picking a niche will feel like it’s either going to make or break
your business (it won’t), it will honestly feel like the most important thing in your
business (it isn’t) and you will be completely torn on what niche to choose.
A lot of people get too hung up on trying to find the ‘perfect niche’. - I’m here to tell
you that it doesn’t exist and you should spend no more than a day 2 at the max
thinking about this. Anything longer than this is called procrastination and this
happens because people are scared to start reaching out to people and actually
speaking to people because they don’t feel “ready”
Here’s a plug and play sheet to come up with niche ideas and then to pick your
niche. Google and youtube are your friends so used them to actually conduct the
research as you will NOT be able to answer the questions as you aren’t a business
owner in your chosen niche. - You must get outside of your own self and your own
head.
Remember to go into this knowing you’ll most likely need to change your niche down
the line anyway to overcome your perfection paralysis.
