About this e-learning material

A clear niche helps the right people find you and understand quickly why they should follow. It also makes content planning easier, because you know which topics belong to you and which do not.

What this material covers
• Listing your interests, skills and experience
• Checking audience demand and existing competition
• Narrowing a broad topic into a focused niche
• Describing your identity in one clear sentence
• Leaving room to grow as your interests change

Who it is for
New creators who are unsure what to focus on, and established creators who feel their content has become too scattered.
