Hey!
Most freelancers struggle with finding a place where they can really stand out, charge more, and be picky about who they work with.
I think that’s because too many of us take a singular path.
We build our careers in spaces where things are straightforward…but that’s what everybody does.
When you look for cross-disciplinary spaces—spaces where two (or more) niches intersect—that’s where you can really shine.
Take me for example. I’m a content person in healthcare B2B SaaS. If I’d done flat healthcare or just B2B SaaS, I wouldn’t really be anything special. Instead, I’m pretty sure I’m just about the only person who does what I do. (Maybe they exist, but I haven’t run across them.)
So, while you’re discovering your niche, look to see if you can’t find where your employment history intersects with your interests, or even business trends.
If you need some help figuring that out, come over to the Mighty Networks group!
