🟠 Your Niche Isn’t Narrow—It’s Premium.

How narrowing your focus helps you raise your rates, attract better clients, and stand out in a crowded fractional market.

When I first started, I resisted the idea of narrowing down.

I wanted to stay “open.”

Different industries.
Different services.
Different types of clients.

The logic?

More options = more opportunities.

But here’s what actually happened:

➤ My messaging got vague
➤ My proposals got bloated
➤ And my dream clients? They couldn’t find me in the noise

Because if your offer tries to speak to everyone… it resonates with no one.

What changed everything?

I picked a lane.
I got specific about who I served and what problem I solved.
I let go of “generalist” mode and stepped into being the go-to expert.

And the result?

My rates went up.
My clients got better.
My pipeline got simpler.

Turns out, the more focused your niche, the more premium you become.

Because the clients you actually want don’t hire “well-rounded professionals.”

They hire specialists who own a clear problem—and solve it better than anyone else.

So no, narrowing down isn’t limiting.

It’s liberating.

In tomorrow’s email, we’ll talk about confidence—and why your credentials might be the very thing holding you back from landing premium clients.

(And if you missed the one about why frameworks matter more than variety, you can find it HERE.)

Fractional powerhouses aren’t born. They’re built.
