Niche
Now is the time to think about your niche (the word no one knows how to pronounce!). Niche describes the process by which you sell to a specific group within your market. The easiest way to visualize this is to create an Ideal Customer Avatar, or your ICA.

People invest in your artwork because they feel a connection to YOU. As you evolve as an artist and business owner, your niche may evolve as well. Just remember it doesn’t need to be perfect, you just need to get started. So, let’s have some fun and get going!
