Session agenda #

• What a niche is and why specialization matters in a competitive advisory market
• How to identify who you want to work with, using your existing clients and technology (like a CRM) to spot commonalities among your best-fit clients
• How to define what you want to work on: the products, services, and areas you want your practice to focus on
• How to put it together: finding the overlap between the people you want to work with and the work you want to do
• Three strategies to become a top advisor in your niche: narrowing your marketing focus, developing market expertise, and building your brand

What you'll learn #

• Niche identification: what a niche is — a group of clients who share something in common — and why focusing on one lets you specialize, deepen your expertise, and stand out from generalist competitors.
• Client segmentation: how to use your existing clients and customer relationship management (CRM) software data to spot shared characteristics (occupation, age, income, life stage) among the clients you enjoy working with most; the seeds your niche grows from.
• Positioning and offer design: how to define your Ideal Work Profile — the products, services, and areas you want your practice built around — and find the overlap between that and your ideal client.
• Marketing focus and brand building: how narrowing your marketing message to a specific industry, client type, and offer — and consistently showing up as the expert in that space — builds a brand that generates word-of-mouth referrals.
