Niche marketing may be a new term for you, but it really means narrowing your focus to the exact clients or businesses you want to be dealing with day in and day out.

My guest this week shows us how to own your niche and open doors by sharing knowledge you likely give away daily.

Stephanie Chandler is an author of several books including Own Your Niche: Hype-Free Internet Marketing Tactics to Establish Authority in Your Field and Promote Your Service-Based Business, From Entrepreneur to Infopreneur: Make Money with Books, eBooks and Information Products, and LEAP! 101 Ways to Grow Your Business.
