Episode notes
Start With Your Existing Skill
- Start your one-person business by selling a professional skill you already have to clients outside your employer.
- Freelance that skill, then scale to consulting and productize the work into digital offers over time.
Use Profession, Pain, Or Passion
- Look for problems you've personally solved (pain) or things you love (passion) as business ideas.
- You only need one of profession, pain, or passion to start and the internet makes niches scalable.
Any Niche Can Scale Online
- With social media and the internet you can find hundreds to thousands of buyers for very niche topics.
- That reach means almost any niche can scale to six figures in revenue even if profitability varies.
