Leanne on Demand Daily with Leanne Hughes 🌴 34. Nicheless
Just worked on my latest podcast episode about niching in business - a topic that came up during a great chat with Sophia and Jade in the Corporate Box Coaching sesh on Friday.
In this episode, I break down:
- Why the "you must have a niche" advice isn't one-size-fits-all
- How I used hyper-niching with my "2 Hour Workshop Blueprint" book while maintaining broader business focus
- The concept of being your own niche (like my personal brand at leannehughes.com)
- My 90/10 split between B2B work (leadership teams, conferences, learning design) and B2C offerings
- Why passion often follows competency rather than the other way around
Key takeaways: Think of yourself as the umbrella brand with content pillars underneath.
When monetising, you can hyper-niche to solve specific problems while maintaining creative freedom in your overall brand.
Mentioned in this episode:
- Nick Gray's "The 2-Hour Cocktail Party"
- The Flipchart Group (my community of 2,800+ facilitators)
- Dan Koe's content pillar strategy
- Jenny Blake's "Pivot" framework
- The concept of "Multi-potentialites"
