Picking a niche is HARD (or at least it was).
What if you really enjoy different experiences, learning new things, not going to the same place doing the same thing, day after day?
This blog post is my notes from a video that was really helpful in outlining some specific action steps to help focus my messaging and start moving towards a specific niche as a small business – serving other professionals.
So without futher ado, here’s the notes hopefully organized in a helpful way.
