Niching makes it easier to build an email list

Building a list stayed hard until the writing had one specific industry to serve. Niching builds credibility, and credibility opens doors to new audiences.

For a long time, I struggled to build an email list.

I finally got traction once I started specializing in the coworking niche.

At first, I wrote a lot. Daily for a while. My blog was one of the only places that exclusively shared marketing tips for that industry.

Indirectly, I also got access to my ideal audience through conference talks, guest webinars, and podcast appearances.

It turns out, writing a lot in a niche helps build credibility. And credibility opens doors to new audiences.

Niching down makes a lot of things easier. Building a list is one of them.
