Business coaching
Crowded, but the buyer has a budget.
The catch
Very crowded at the entry end, and clients measure you against revenue, which is both the opportunity and the exposure.
Who already has the raw material
- Sales, marketing or entrepreneurship
- Having run a business yourself
Background is the strongest single predictor of whether a niche works out, because it decides how long you spend building credibility before anyone pays you.
What buyers require first
- A track record buyers can verify
- Fluency in the client’s numbers
Who the client actually is
A founder or owner-operator spending company money on a revenue problem.
Work arrives through linkedin, referrals and speaking and podcasts. Picking a niche is also picking which of those you are willing to do every week for a year.
