Go Niche or Broad? What Works in Consulting.

Most consultants say their biggest challenge is how to communicate their value. Here’s the solution:

Go deeper, not wider.

Consultants like to hedge their bets. They take on any client that comes their way because they don’t have a steady pipeline. But this does one major thing: it wrecks their messaging.

How can you possibly have a clear message when you do 10 different things for 10 different types of clients?

I know I’ve said this a hundred times before and it’s almost become trite, but I’ll repeat it because most consultants still don’t get it:

Specialize.

🎯 What is your core expertise?
🎯 Who specifically is your ideal client?
🎯 What urgent problem do you solve for them?

If you don’t go deep, you’ll never clarify your value. Your message will be lost in a sea of sameness.

The clearer your positioning, the easier it is to attract clients.
