However, niche is different. Niche actually targets a subset of a broader market with distinct customer needs."\n\u2014 Julie\n\u201cIt's not just about having an amazing offer. It's about having someone in your world who truly wants what it is that you're selling them and they're willing to invest in it."\n\u2014 Julie\n"It's not about forcing someone to buy something that they don't want or need. Because selling at its core is relationship based. And that's why when we're just selling all the time, we don't even realize that we're selling. Because it is service based. It is relationship based. When we come from that lens, it's about genuinely helping people solve a problem or achieve a goal."\n\u2014 Julie\n"Are you reaching your ideal buyers effectively?
