Choosing a Business Niche That Fulfills a Need

 In Podcast

A lot of us dreamed of starting our own business and being our own boss, but may not have known exactly what type of business we wanted to go into. Cafes and shops sound dreamy, coaching sounds fulfilling, crafting would be a great outlet…but the reality is that these business ideas are oversaturated in most areas. If you want to not only stay in business, but thrive as you serve your market and earn the revenue you desire, you’d better have a unique twist to your offering that really makes you stand out. 

Our guest today took a different approach to going into business, by seeing a need that was going unmet in the marketplace, and creating a startup that would fill the gap.
