To make a six-figure income as a writer, to need to be a professional. You need your name to jump to people’s lips when a particular job or challenge comes up.

“Direct mail for software? You should get in touch with Bob. That’s what he does.” put in your own name and specialty where suitable.

You can’t get that kind of attentiveness or referral if you’re someone who just writes about anything in any medium. Nobody is going to consider that you are a reliable specialist in completely everything.

So how do you determine a viable ‘niche’? You have three different types of choices…

1. Niche by industry…
That is to say, work within a particular industry. For years I worked with pharmaceutical clients. All my clients were drug companies. I wrote direct mail, brochures, sales aids, video scripts. I wrote anything, so long as it was about pharmaceuticals. That was my niche. And my clients knew that I was well-informed in that area. So they came to me.

2. Niche by medium…
In this situation, you make a particular medium your specialty. After my years with the pharmaceutical industry, I decided to specialize as a direct mail copywriter. And for that period, about fifteen years, I ONLY write direct mail and associated media…like inserts, fliers, postcards etc. I was a direct response specialist. And I wrote for all kinds of different industries – financial, cable TV, magazine publishers and more.

My specialty, my niche, was as a direct response copywriter. Other writers have built their occupation around writing annual reports, radio scripts, white papers etc.

3. ‘Double-Niche’
When you double-niche you are building a specialty of serving a single industry through a single medium. For instance, writing direct response for the financial industry. And ONLY writing direct response for the financial industry.

In conclusion…

As I said at the start, you can’t be an expert at everything…not within every industry, not with every medium. So you need to take some steps to find your niche.

How do you choose? First, know yourself. Know what you are good at. Know what you like. Also, be clever. Create your niche where the money is. Find your niche where there is a sturdy market. And be smart about the size of your niche. Don’t go so narrow that you’re forever starved of work. Don’t go so broad that people view you as a Jack or Jill of all trades, a generalist.

Are they aware of the top online career sites? Do they offer a service to post displaced employees resumes on these top online career sites? Do they have the ability to distribution resumes electronically to a select group of employers and recruiters?
