Find the Market If there is any 'catch' to using this strategy it's in the research needed to find a niche that offers little competition but high profitability!

Establish Your Brand Once you find a niche you need to establish yourself as being both knowledgeable and trustworthy!

When you consider branding is used to help you get heard above the 'noise' you'll find it easier to brand yourself in smaller markets due to the lack of noise! In any event the idea is to become the big fish in the small pond and a credible brand will certainly accelerate this process! The best way to gain recognition and establish a relevant brand is to give freely through publishing useful or otherwise interesting content. By establishing your 'roots' in this way you will tremendously boost your marketing effectiveness and influence throughout the market. Maintain Presence The strength of your 'dominating' image is to be ever present which more deeply embeds this image within others while also projecting a certain reliability! You want the reputation as the 'go to' guy and/or gal and by maintaining it this will make your efforts more profitable when you do promote any goods or services! Now if the niche seems to be trending downward keeping a presence is no longer as important and it is likely time to move on!
