Finding a niche is an essential part of being a freelancer.
00:10.210 --> 00:15.490
It helps you to define your business clearly and sets you up as an expert for your future clients.
00:16.090 --> 00:20.650
This presentation will guide you through the most important reasons why you should make the choice to
00:20.650 --> 00:23.320
narrow down your business and find a niche.
00:24.430 --> 00:29.920
When starting a freelance business, you will, of course have decided what it is that you will be doing.
00:30.370 --> 00:33.910
Whilst a broad business idea can seem compelling in the beginning.
00:34.180 --> 00:37.960
Over time it should be narrowed down to a specific niche.
00:38.800 --> 00:43.210
There are many reasons that finding a niche can be beneficial to your freelance business.
00:43.510 --> 00:50.490
If you do not have one yet, it will not be too much of a detriment if you are still new to freelancing
00:50.500 --> 00:52.450
whilst you work over time.
00:52.810 --> 00:55.960
Consider targeting your content towards a specific niche.
00:56.140 --> 00:59.560
Once you have decided what you want to do, no rush.
01:00.580 --> 01:05.140
Nevertheless, you should still be thinking about it first.
01:05.350 --> 01:10.780
The ultimate reason to find a niche is that you want to be doing something that you are both good at
01:10.780 --> 01:12.220
and passionate about.
01:13.120 --> 01:16.660
Figure out what your expertise is and make that your niche.
01:17.200 --> 01:22.390
Playing to your strengths is the best thing that you can possibly do for your freelance business.
01:23.230 --> 01:28.720
The key to success is finding something that you are both good at as well as being passionate about.
01:29.230 --> 01:34.360
This will lead to a better quality of life for you, as well as better results for your clients.
01:35.590 --> 01:42.640
Secondly, a specific service is easier to market rather than broadly marketing a freelance service.
01:42.850 --> 01:47.560
You will be able to specifically market your niche, especially towards your target clients.
01:48.190 --> 01:52.600
You can market a niche service in the locations where people within that niche will find it.
01:53.170 --> 01:57.970
This leads into the third reason for defining a niche your target clients.
01:58.570 --> 02:01.150
Once you have found people who will align with your niche.
02:01.390 --> 02:05.050
Work with them and build a positive reputation within your industry.
02:05.770 --> 02:10.900
This will lead to notoriety on your part and cause your clients to recommend you and your business will
02:10.900 --> 02:11.320
grow.
02:12.290 --> 02:16.310
Once you have found a niche, there will be less competition for your services.
02:17.240 --> 02:21.230
The broader your business, the more people you will have to compete with.
02:21.950 --> 02:28.160
Narrowing down your freelance business will also decrease your competition, strengthening your position
02:28.160 --> 02:29.750
as a leader in your niche.
02:30.790 --> 02:35.110
Having a knee issue makes you more reputable and more recognized in your area.
02:35.620 --> 02:41.380
This is a huge form of free marketing to cement yourself as an industry leader in your specialization.
02:42.450 --> 02:48.000
Finally, once you have a niche, you are able to charge a premium price for your services.
02:48.450 --> 02:54.510
The more specialized your niche, the more of an expert you seem, and therefore the more you can charge
02:54.510 --> 02:55.560
for your services.
02:56.040 --> 03:00.780
You may have to alter your business and your services to better fit your niche, which is a natural
03:00.780 --> 03:01.920
part of business growth.
03:02.490 --> 03:04.950
It is a sign of success in the freelance world.
03:05.490 --> 03:10.380
In conclusion, your niche can become more specified as your business grows.
03:10.740 --> 03:14.760
You do not have to commit to something incredibly narrow right away.
03:15.240 --> 03:19.050
Over time, narrow down and define your niche more clearly.
03:19.230 --> 03:21.090
To grow your freelance business.
