Copywriting Podcast Episode 063: To niche or not to niche – the pros and cons of niching your copywriting business

To niche or not to niche? It’s a question I get asked a lot so I thought I’d interview Lynne Testoni, a leading content creator and copywriter. Lynne specialises in some of the most coveted topics – interior design, homewares, gardening, food, cookbooks and much more. She has carved out a niche writing career that enables her to write about what she wants, when she wants, and to work with the people she wants. If you’d like to learn how to successfully niche your copywriting business, become a subject matter authority and get paid what you’re worth, this is the episode for you.

In this episode Lynne reveals how to:

  • Find a niche
  • Monetise that niche
  • Turn your passion into profit
  • Go deeper and wider in the niche
  • Become the go to expert in your niche
  • Charge higher prices for being a subject matter authority
  • Balance a writing life with a personal life 
  • Find work without selling yourself or selling out
  • Be nice and why it’s the best strategy for sourcing referrals
