Often when people first start out in business they make the mistake of taking any client that comes along. Initially, I fell into this trap but didn't stay long. When dealing with clients that are not a good match for you, the relationship can be frustrating, demanding, and draining to you in more ways than one. As a success coach, one of the areas I assist my clients in is the definition and selection of a niche to market to. By defining their niche group, they target a group of prospective clients that they feel passionate about working with. Not only are they happier when they gain new clients, but they are doing the work they enjoy and with a group they enjoy as well. Plus, it makes their marketing much easier. Thanks for such a great post. Judith www.JudithWentzel.com Great post and you are right on target, Martha.
