About this course

Generalist freelancers compete with everyone on price and win on nothing. This course walks you through the proven process specialists use to pick a niche that is profitable, defensible, and a fit for you, then validate it with real market signals before you commit. You will end with a niche decision backed by evidence, a positioning statement that makes you the obvious choice, and a step-by-step plan to transition without starving in the gap.
