How To Get Clear On Your Perfect Profitable Niche

If you’ve ever struggled to get clients to invest in your services, or if you’re hearing a lot of “I can’t afford it,” you’ve likely stumbled on a key problem that holds spirit-driven entrepreneurs back from making the money they deserve: an unclear (or unprofitable) niche.

Your niche is the combination of the people you serve, and the situation-specific problem you solve for them.  While you don’t need to have the “perfect” niche to start getting clients (and indeed, you don’t want to wait!), it’s no secret that to create a 6-figure business, your niche has to be compelling.

When it comes to niche, spiritual entrepreneurs are often in a tailspin of over thinking.  But getting clear on your niche is almost always about your mindset than anything else!   Before you spend one more minute trying to “figure it out” in your head, use these tips to uncover what you’ve been missing… and gain the clarity you seek!

1. Look to your life experiences.

One of the biggest questions I hear is, “What do I have that they will PAY for?”  My answer: first, look to your life!

Spiritual entrepreneurs – especially women – are notorious for discounting and undervaluing their life experiences and keeping their personal stories under wraps in their marketing.  Goddess, it’s these things that your clients want the most!

Clients want to work with someone who has walked in their shoes.  What challenges have you personally overcome in your life?  What big problems were you struggling with, and came out the other side? When you find yourself saying, “Nobody wants to hear about that,” take that as a sign – you might be looking at a very profitable niche opportunity.

2. Think outside of the box.

One of the biggest things that keeps entrepreneurs stuck in the “niche loop” is getting attached to what they THINK it’s going to look like.  Truth is, your magic (the deep work) can be applied to dozens of different scenarios you likely haven’t even thought of yet.   What groups of people are already investing to solve a specific challenge you could specialize in?

3. Go with the flow.

Are your ideas/services already present within the culture of the group of people you are considering?  Are they already investing money in what you’re offering?   Changing minds in your marketing is a major uphill battle.  You want to be “in the flow” of the mindset that already exists.

4. Get into action.

The only way to know if you have a profitable niche (one that you love) is to TEST – i.e., get out there and get a client or two!

You don’t need a website or a big list.  You DO need to create a short program on your topic and tap into an opportunity to connect with your ideal potential clients, such as a networking meeting, speaking opportunity or small local workshop.  (Hint: you don’t “find” the opportunity as much as you become aware of it and say yes.)

Outlining your program, connecting with potential clients and having conversations will tell you so much more about the potential of your niche than you could ever figure out on your own, churning in front of the computer.

Above All, Get Support

It can be very difficult to pinpoint your perfect niche opportunities, especially if you’ve been struggling with it for a while.  Enlist the support of a coach, mentor or mastermind partner who can be your “fresh eyes.”  (This is especially important when considering your life experiences.)

With the help of your support team and a commitment to move forward, you’ll quickly move through the discomfort of choosing your niche and finally get to the fun part – working your magic for people who love you and will pay you richly for it!

Ready to discover your perfect 6-figure niche?  We kick off the Income Acceleration Academy with a brand new “Discover Your Perfect Niche” virtual intensive, then you’ll put your new (or refined!) niche to the test so you can get paid to figure out your niche, once and for all!  But hurry – you’ll need to register by DECEMBER 23 at midnight Pacific for a generous $500 savings off the program investment.  Get all the details and register here: http://www.incomeaccelerationacademy.com

I’m sharing my 5 best secrets to get new ideal clients this month!

You’ve probably heard that if you want to get clients,  you must get clear on WHO you serve and WHAT problem you solve.  (In other words, choose a niche.)

Problem is, for most spiritual solopreneurs, the whole niche thing creates all sorts of drama.

“But… what I do is deep.  Like, really deep.   It can’t be put into words!”
“But… I help people with so many different problems.  I don’t want to limit myself or turn anyone away.”
“But… I have so many passions.  I want to bring them all together.”
“But… if I choose a niche, I’ll be stuck with it forever and ever.  Argh!”

Sound familiar?  Guess what – every single one of these has come up for me at some point or another!  (Especially those last two. ;) )

Now, while I wouldn’t be the 6-figure coach you expect me to be if I said you can just ignore the whole niche thing (you can’t), I do have some pretty sweet news.

You DON’T have to give up what’s important to you.

You DON’T have to box yourself in forever and ever, amen.

You DON’T have to turn people away.  (Unless they’re not right for you – the Divine Feminine Gift of Boundaries in action.)

You DON’T even have to choose your niche to get clients!  (Halellujah!)

Here’s what you DO need to do…

You simply have to make a decision (i.e., choose your WHO and your WHAT) for the duration of your 30-day “get clients” campaign.

I like to call this, “Not a niche, but a next step.”  And whether you’re just starting out (and the niche thing is really “up” for you), or you’ve been around the block a few times, this practice is really useful for you.  Why?

One of my first mentors says that marketing is just “guessing and testing” – making a best guess and trying it out. The very best way to get clarity on your niche (or refine a niche you already have) is to get some clients and see what happens.

Fact is, you’re never going to “figure it out” by hiding out in marketing or staying in your head.

Cool part is, when you decide and take inspired, deliberate action (instead of churning or flailing around)… you get paid to “get clarity.”  :)

So here’s my invitation to you.  On Tuesday, February 15 at 8pm ET I’m hosting an all-new high-content training call, where I’ll share my best, specific strategies to help you go get clients in the next 30 days… or much less. (Most of my clients who implement what I teach get clients in less than a week.)

If you need clients, want more clients or better paying clients, you need to be there.  Here’s all the information…

Would You Like To Learn My BEST Strategies To Get 3, 5 or even 10 Clients THIS Month?

Over the past year, I’ve become known as the “go-to” gal for spiritual women entrepreneurs who are ready to stop struggling and and get a flood of clients NOW.

Why?  Because I know the path all too well!  Back when I was first starting out, I spent 2 YEARS floundering and nearly quit!

Then I made the decision to focus on the shortest, simplest and fastest path to enrolling clients who truly valued me and were ready to change their lives.

Result? 9 clients (and $20k in biz!) in 30 days… a 6-figure business within the year… and thousands of women transformed through my work.

That experience is the “big why” behind my work with so many Divine Feminine Entrepreneurs… and my latest brand new NO-COST training call:

March 18, 2010 at 7pm EST

Registration: http://budurl.com/spiritrichlaunch

Many spirited, heart-centered entrepreneurs believe that you have to have a huge list to successfully launch a new product or program. (And why wouldn’t they? It’s what all the marketing gurus tell us, no?)

Thing is, it’s just not true!

Over the past year, I’ve had multiple 5-figure+ launches of new programs and services. The kicker? My list size is still well under 1000 – yes, really!

In this call, I’ll reveal a few of my best kept secrets, and yes, bust a few myths along the way. You’ll learn:

1) The biggest “launch myths” most spirited entrepreneurs buy into that set them up to fail

2) How to beat the “Ta Da!” syndrome (where you pour your heart and soul into a new offer, present it to your peeps with a “Ta Da!” and nobody buys)

3) The one thing your launch MUST have to be successful (without this, it’s just not happenin’)

4) The 5 key mistakes that keeps spirited entrepreneurs from making money from their launches – and what to do instead

5) How to set your launch numbers (what’s realistic, what’s pie-in-the-sky)

6) Simple, empowering mindset shifts that make the difference between a launch that fizzles and a launch that sells out
