Niche Marketing

niche marketing

Everyone talks about it, but what exactly is Niche Marketing?

If you ask 100 people you’ll probably get 100 different answers but our definition of niche marketing is to offer a product to a very defined and specific market with a very specific need. The product offered is intended to satisfy the need of a very defined demographic.

Here’s the catch…any product is a niche. Seriously, if I am selling tires, I’m selling to a demo that needs tires more than likely for some kind of a vehicle. There must be something like a gazillion vehicle owners.

So it’s not the fact that you are selling to a niche that will make you successful as a niche marketer. You have to find an under-served, financially capable niche that is in need and has a desire for your offer.

So if I was going to be looking for a niche in the tire category, I’d be looking at narrowing the focus until I found a niche (i.e. market) that I could profitably break into, that fit the criteria I previously stated.

So perhaps I would be looking at wheelchair tires. Would that be a narrow demo who would need my product who is not served by every corner store? Yep! Are they financially capable of buying the product? Well if they need a wheelchair I would think having the tires to operate it would indeed make purchasing said tires somewhat of a priority.

You see finding a niche isn’t hard. If you spend some time brainstorming you’ll be able to find a number of niches that may make sense. The challenge in niche marketing is finding products that can make you money. If you are going to delve into niche marketing you are doing so to earn a profit.

As we move forward with our new focus of making money on the Internet we are going to delve deeply into niche marketing. We’re going to show you how to find the best niches, how to find products to serve the niche you choose and how to market your products.

I think you will enjoy the information that you will see here on Internet Money and how you can derive it from Niche Marketing.
