Proven Tips to Mastering Creating Ideal Customer. A Dive Into What Is Niche and How to Find It? |
We’ll start by discussing general meaning. Even a Google search will identify a niche as: A focused area of the market for a specific kind of good or service.
which is accurate and true.
But why am I writing this blog if it is so simple?
Let’s talk about the niche today along with some case studies, Chalo.
You could also refer to it as a target audience. Do you think a company may be operated at any time and for any person? Will that occur?
Let’s pretend that a group of people founded a business and developed a product that can be utilized by anybody, anywhere, at any time. As a result, their target market must be everyone on the earth and a 24/7 operation, also imagine there is no competition itself in that industry.
As per our imagination will that company deliver the products on time and everywhere in the world? Absolutely No. This is the biggest hypothetical imagination. Isn’t it?
I think now you got my point. Every industry must get their niche to run the business.
- Iphones are not for everyone, they are meant for the type of people who want security and also the status symbol. They also want to connect with the Apple Eco system only.
- Tata Nano is not for everyone. They are meant for only 4 people families also called Lower or Middle class people who are above the poverty line and below from the high end class.
Now you are my line. That’s how a niche will work. Let’s say according to our imagination there is a company, or even ever you thought about nestle?
By the way Nestle has almost 97% share in Cerelac industries. Sooooo big unit right?
Okay, if you don’t have your niche correct you may miss the bullseye and hit nowhere.
We can go with another example to understand it clearly.
Let’s say you are running a Fashion industry
