MBA865 Starting a Business in a Crowded Marketplace

from The $100 MBA Show · host Omar Zenhom

Creating demand for a kind of product that doesn’t exist is an uphill battle, to say the least. Having a customer base that’s already seeking solutions— that’s an advantage!Today, we discuss how businesses have earned incredible success by “niching down.” They didn’t have to invent the wheel.

We discuss how to identify that need, and how to position your business as the solution.
