Niche Marketing

What is it?

Niche Market ‘a business that focuses on a niche market is addressing a need for a product or service that is not being addressed by mainstream providers. A niche market may be thought of as a narrowly defined group of potential customers…..niche marketing:An often used technique for affiliate marketers. By seeking out smaller segments of larger markets, a website can be developed and promoted quickly to uniquely serve a targeted and usually loyal customer base, giving the affiliate a small but regular income stream. This technique is then repeated across several other niche websites until a desired income level is achieved.’ Source: Wikipedia.

Meeting the demand

In marketing, a niche refers to a service or a product that occupies a special area of demand.  It is that small corner in the market that accounts for a certain kind of specialty concerning an unmet customer need.  To be able to attract a strong, solid market, the choice of a niche product should ultimately complement the website one owns.  It is through this scheme that he is able to generate a specific market for the niche product he is trying to sell.

The Strategy

Niches are involved in niche marketing, the process of finding market segments that are small but potentially profitable nonetheless.  To maintain a profitable quantity of sales, this marketing strategy relies on increasing the loyalty of customers so that their corporate objectives will be met or surpassed.  Illustrative of this is the fact that the quality of the product or service sold will generate customer satisfaction and, consequently, customer loyalty.  The result is profitability garnered through a solid market base that trusts in the ability of the product or service to really deliver.

One of the great things about niche marketing is that it encourages those who indulge in it to be unique and one-of-a-kind.  Here one is not forced into the lion’s den and made to compete against established marketers.  He is made to occupy a strong and secure position that ultimately wins him a real place in the market.  Niche marketing differs from other online marketing strategies because this particular quality allows it to operate almost autonomously and without having to contend with corporate sharks that tear each other to pieces.

Discover your niche

One of the most important things that should be thought over by those involved in this type of business is the niche business that is going to be involved in the process.  It is important to consider the type of business that one is going to work on to be able to ensure himself of the success that he hopes to have.  It is also important for him to know everything about the niche business at hand.  Learning the tricks of the trade in is one of the things that one could do to make a niche business prosper tremendously.

Being able to reach the niche market is another consideration to make.  In doing so, one should know the exact phrases that people are searching for.  The use of tools such as the Keyword Analyzer can help a lot in knowing the type of keywords that should be used to make the business profitable. Targeting the right keywords does a lot in making this type of business soar.

Customer satisfaction

Those who engage in niche marketing know that determining the potential of a niche before doing everything else is a must if one wants to save all the time and effort that might be wasted if he plunges into everything head on.  Building a niche marketing site that proves to be profitable should be done after an unsatisfied customer demand is identified, and marketing the site appropriately by reaching out to customers the best possible way is what niche marketers should consider if they want their business to reach skyrocketing success.

Niche marketing is the only system capable of filling up a gaping hole in the market by catering to the unsatisfied needs of customers - needs that are usually not given notice by those in the big league.  Through niche marketing, one is able to gain a foothold in the market by being a needle in a haystack.  From small beginings big businesses grow.

Working from home

Starting a home business

Its really not that difficult to start a small home business especially if you think about all the advantages and the tax benefits that one can receive for doing so; however it may take some soul searching and time to dig deep into yourself and find your passion and skills that you can apply online.

We all possess skills even if we are not always totally aware of them, that we can utilise and share with others. Listen to the interview with Alejandra from Italy and see how she made some big changes in her life.

Listen as YCADEMY Speaker Bianca Gubalke from S.A. digs into her past and explores her present - working from home around her family.

Alejandra Neri sets her online sails with Semiomantics XO

After having had her own Trade Booth Construction company in Germany for over a decade, Alejandra Neri decided to start a family and work smart: from home that is. And over the Internet.

Working from home gave her the possibility to have all the advantages without the stress, overheads and insecurities … and to make money from day one.

How?

Simple: running a small business from home properly and legally gives you massive tax advantages right away, whether you live in Germany, the US or South Africa. Plan it correctly from day one and you can deduct part of your rent (office space… and don’t forget your bathroom…), electricity (light, PC, heating in winter and aircon in summer to optimize the working environment), your PC and Internet connection with everything that’s connected (as that’s your home office equipment), all online programs and subscriptions, your desk, furniture, telephone bills,  part of your travel cost, cleaning service, even the glasses on your nose to see clearer (even if you type blind LOL), the trip you do to meet your partners and the champagne you drink if they live in France, especially in the Auvergne - ever heard of Laetitia Paris?

As long as it’s well documented and you keep clean books. Whether you do so for a large company or your small home business, the basics are the same… and Alejandra Neri knows what that means.

Work from Home and make Money with your Small Business from day one.
In other words: THINK & GROW RICH… if you know what I mean

From planning many different projects at the same time in the extremely hectic and competitive environment of International Trade fairs…  to focusing on one thing at a time in her Online Business has been a huge learning curve, and I would think many of us have come down the same route. Whatever our online business may be, however, we have to build or Name, our Brand, our Authority… and we have to get to the top of Google, as that’s where people go when they look up anything they need in form of a keyword or a string of keywords.

No wonder Alejandra Neri is passionate about SEMIOMANTICS XO and developing her skills to becoming an expert in the field.

Meet Alejandra Neri LIVE in this spontaneous Interview with YCADEMY Speaker Bianca Gubalke within the context of an YCADEMY GOLD Home Business Education Call on Thursday, 5th June 2008, recorded by Zo Nicholas, Head of YORGOO Global Support.

TO LISTEN TO THE INTERVIEW

AN:
I am Alex as everybody knows here.
Originally, I come from the Philippines,  but I was living in Germany - where we both met, Bianca, in the Kunstakademie where we studied Art & Architecture.

Then I opened up my own business in Messebau (Trade Fair Construction) for 15 years, where I did all the booths constructions for Japanese companies and South East Asian Companies in Germany and in Europe. That was a little bit too much work and I stopped and started my family. That’s when we moved here to Italy.
But later I wanted to work again and I started here, online. With YORGOO.

B:
How did you actually start online… what made you go to YORGOO?

AN:
Well…. I knew you! Here it’s about people. I looked around online too, and there are many programs and I tried to see what I could do online. I was thinking of what one of my designers used to do; she stayed at home and she did the autocad drawings for architects and mailed them through the Internet. I was thinking of something like that, but here it is more personal, which is what I preferred. And not depending on anybody. That too.

B: Yes - absolutely! And what would you say made the biggest change, what put you forward in your learning and your growth online. What was it that helped you most?

AN:
That from simple things… if you just focus… you accomplish a lot more than doing too many things at a time. 

B:
I mean within YORGOO and YCADEMY, with what we are doing… what was it that really opened your eyes and made you move forward with your business?

AN:
Yes, there are many things that we learned, especially during the Seminars - and of course like now, after the Seminar that we’ve been doing, from the BLOGS… it’s become a passion for me… that maybe I would like to specialize in SEMIOMANTICS. Later on.

B: Can you tell us a little bit of your experience with this ammmazing script called SEMIOMANTICS XO ?

AN: (laughing)
It is very interesting and now that I do a lot of it… I also try to analyze the script, myself, looking at the plugins and all that, and comparing things… and I think it’s really interesting how it’s put together and how it works.. Well, it’s just amazing how Yorgo put this together. And how it’s growing…

B:
So you see yourself basically becoming an expert in Semiomantics and working in that field?

AN:
Yes - I enjoy it!

B:
Yes, and your script is at the top everywhere - so it’s absolutely phantastic what’s happening there.

AN:
Also, I am trying to write better. 

B:
Yes, it’s important… your own expression when building your Authority online, that’s just part of it. So many people think we just sit and ‘inspiration’ falls upon us from the sky… and straight into the writing. In fact, we always say it’s 1 % of inspiration and 99% of transpiration.  It looks so easy, but there are always hours and hours of work involved before something of value is written. Obviously, some people have more ease with it than others, but it is something that can be learned, there is no doubt.

Besides, we get so much help from the different feeds and the way we link everything and work together - so I think it’s exciting that you will concentrate on SEMIOMANTICS : BRAVO for that and we wish you Good Luck!
Thanks very much… and give us that final famous Smile: Alejandra Neri’s Smile!

AN:
Oh dear! [laughing... with Alejandra's Smile]

Who is….

Today, while answering emails I came across an article which absolutely confirms what  our LIVE Seminars and daily calls have been advocating,  personal branding, presenting yourself to the world.

This is exactly what the new Semiomantics.net is helping all its participants to achieve - branding and authority. ‘Semiomantics Network is a network of sites that build publishing power for all participating webmasters. We are not interested in building publishing power for Semiomantics.net but for the websites which will be empowered by Semiomantics Network participants.’

Be more successful: Create "ME INC." 
by Karla Brandau
 
Would you like more…
- …"Achievement Minded" status in your organization or with your clients?
- …Of the right kind of projects or clients?
- …Earning potential?
 
Then take three steps to develop an image that brands you! Start today to create "ME INC."
 
In our chaotic lives filled with confusing messages from a plethora of competitors, a personal brand makes you impossible to ignore and prevents you from becoming a commodity like wheat, sugar or coffee beans. Commodities are bought and sold every day on the world market with their prices determined by supply and demand forces. The brand with the best perceived value has the advantage and achieves greater results.
 
The days are gone when you could just show up, do your work, and expect to get noticed.  In our global economy, bright and brilliant people all over the world compete for the same positions. Many are willing to work for commodity like prices. Developing your "Me Inc." will brand yourself and create a distinctive value enabling you stand above your closest competitors. This is true whether you are an entrepreneur, a small or mid-size business owner, or an individual pushing for a promotion to the executive suite. 
 
Personal branding is a natural aspect of how people evaluate one another. You don’t need a master’s degree in marketing to put it to work. Personal branding lets you control how other people perceive you. You’re telling them what you stand for but in a way that’s so organic and unobtrusive they think they’ve developed that perception all by themselves. 
 
Personal branding, creating "Me Inc.," takes your skills, personality and unique characteristics and packages them into a powerful identity that increases your visibility in crowded markets. It starts with the way you walk, talk and dress and includes your education, profession, car, friends, and choice of neighborhoods. Atlanta Mayor Shirley Franklin has found a unique way to brand her physical appearance. She wears a colorful flower on the left side of her suit, creating a unique branding perception to that is easily recognizable.
 
Complete branding, however, is not just good grooming, polished shoes, the car you drive or how you present your business card. After these physical, outer branding characteristics, creating "Me Inc." moves to the heart and soul with attitudes & emotions. To more fully develop your brand:
 
- Exhibit enthusiasm and a positive attitude
- Demonstrate persistence and the ability to follow through and lock in commitments
- Live with integrity and honor your commitments
 
Which of these branding virtues describes you? Did you realize that others can brand you as…negative or positive…as undependable or dependable?
 
After branding your physical appearance and your attitudes, move to the final step: your nature and brain.  Accomplish this third step by distinguishing yourself by branding your innate talents, knowledge and skills.
 
- Innate talents – What is easy for you? What do you like to do? What behavior when repeated seems to be executed like magic?
- Knowledge – What do you know that could be branded?
- Skills – What skills have you practiced over and over until the gap between potential and actual is hardly recognizable?
 
As an example, if you want to be a better sales professional, you need an innate talent for persuasion then in-depth product knowledge and a quiver filled with sales skills and techniques. Perfect your step three by practicing your skills whether selling your ideas inside or outside your organization and focus on your closing techniques. The good news is that which is practiced, improves. In summary: 
 
Innate Talents + Knowledge Learned + Skills Practiced = More Complete Self Brand and Results 
 
Creating "Me Inc." distinguishes and differentiates you and enables you to shine through the crowd of people vie for promotions or competing for the same customer. As you develop your brand and operate from deep inside, you will become a virtual magnet, pulling people to you who want to do business with you or who will be willing to give you more responsibility in your organization. Through this process, you catapult yourself into an elite league of achievers.
