To stand out and sell — always, but especially in 2025 — you’ve gotta niche.
Happily (especially if you are a personal brand), that DOESN’T mean putting your sweet little multi-passionate self into a box for twenty years and throwing away the key.
But it DOES mean that you should create individual PROJECTS under your personal brand (I talk about that more in part one of this series here) and niche them sufficiently so as to cut through.
How? Choose a market that has in-built demand, and then to go three or four layers deep to specialise within it. In this episode, I show you how.
PS This is Part Two in a five part series to help you set up a personal brand for success. You can view Part One here, and subscribe to the podcasts for the other posts in the series to come!
