Can you help me select a niche? I think the niches you recommend are saturated because everyone uses the same lead‑finding method.

The niches from my videos aren't necessarily saturated; even if many people use the same lead‑finding method, there are many variants of the niche you can try. You don’t have to target the exact same recruiting agency I mention—you could aim for executive recruiting agencies, or a specific sub‑vertical of SaaS companies instead of a broad SaaS target. If you feel stuck, it’s likely just fear of failure or of getting started. My advice is to look inward: ask why you’re hesitating, then pre‑commit to testing three niches for 14 days; if it works, keep going, otherwise move on. There are plenty of niches out there, and new ones appear daily. Check out my niche‑discovery exercise in Maker School (also offered as a lead magnet) to help you find something that works.

How can I confidently pick a niche for my agency?

Don’t try to fully master a niche before you start—use outreach and sales calls to learn its internal processes, pain points, and sales cycle. You can gather only high‑level insights from ChatGPT or YouTube, but real understanding comes from actual conversations. Leverage your own background as social proof: if you’ve worked in B2B LED manufacturing, you can confidently offer AI‑powered lead‑generation, cold‑email, and automation services to similar product‑based businesses, citing specific results you’ve delivered. This approach should be one of the three niches you pursue.

I'm new and particularly struggling with choosing a niche. What are the easier ones you mentioned?

I recommend checking out my updated video from 2025, which outlines three of the simplest niches: coaching, high‑ticket SaaS, and recruitment. There are other options, but those three are the most straightforward to get up and running quickly. I’ve also experimented with videography, website agencies, and real estate agents, but the coaching, SaaS, and recruitment niches are generally the easiest for beginners.

How do you choose a niche?

I understand wanting to work in a niche you have experience in, but I’ve succeeded in many niches where I had none. I look for high‑ROI opportunities and dive in using whatever means necessary. Following your heart doesn’t always lead to the highest ROI, so my strategy is simple: I test many niches based on intuition—knowing I’ll often be wrong—then I double down on the one that works. This might involve a month‑long test of sending cold emails with different offers to different groups, or simply getting as many deals as possible on a platform like Upwork to see which niche pays best. Once I see a winning niche, I focus on it.

I'm good at copywriting but unsure what to offer and who to target. How should I approach this strategically when starting a service‑based business?

I wish I had a magic formula, but the practical approach is to generate a list of potential niches and offers, then test them quickly. Pick enough ideas, throw them at the wall, and expect about a 50 % chance that any given niche is viable. The key is to avoid over‑planning; instead, focus on rapid feedback. Build a minimal product, reach out to as many potential customers as possible, gather their input, and iterate. A good starting point is the Maker School niche discovery template: list several niches, draft copy for each, and send outreach to see what resonates. Combine that with your copywriting skills and any automation templates you have, and you’ll quickly identify a market that works.
