This is valuable information to anyone in any business. Finding a niche and then learning all you can about that niche is the way to build any business.

I found your blog through the mom blogs. Great post.

Teresa, thank you for highlighting our industry so much!

For the first 2 or 3 years I really didn’t know who my ideal client was – I looked after anyone who came along. But over time I found I related well to business coaches and professional speakers and my skills were well-suited to their needs. I almost stumbled upon this by accident. Association Management was also something I did – looking after not-for-profits (for 10 years). All three client types have the same needs – databases, newsletters, broadcast emails, events co-ordination, websites maintained and so on.

While most of my client base are actually in my state, some are also national (Australia) and others are overseas, so I get a good variety.
