Choosing a niche in real estate might seem counterintuitive at first. In this solocast, I explain how niching down leads to predictable growth in your business. Hear insights about:
Q1 is finally here and it is time to find your pace, set your goals for the year, and create an actionable plan to achieve them! We have talked a lot about lead gen strategies because business development is going to play a major role in that process. It is important to figure out exactly who you want to serve, so your biz dev efforts don’t lead to burnout. Choosing a niche in real estate might seem counterintuitive, but it will lead you to more growth than you’ve ever seen from chasing every opportunity you come across. If you can identify a specific market segment and become the go-to expert in that niche, you will build consistent, predictable results that will fast-track you to achieving your goals!
In my experience, choosing a niche creates energy that converts into action and ultimately, results. It doesn’t necessarily mean you are limiting the scope of who you will work with. It means that, by defining a target market, you can get creative with the ways you address their specific needs. When you understand the specific needs of a market segment, you will identify new ways to solve them. This process of niching down is where creative pathways to growth are discovered, and it all stems from defining who you decide to serve!
The reason choosing a niche leads to growth is because it creates a flurry of sales activity that doesn’t feel like sales activity at all! When you are focused on serving a specific target audience, you are not worried about what you are going to get out of your interactions. The only thing you need to worry about is what you are going to GIVE that subset of the community and how you can continue adding value beyond what you’re getting paid for. Identify a niche, understand their needs, and address them—this is the key to predictable growth in your business!
