This is just an example and there can be many more. Once you have identified your particular niche, think about telling people what you think. Offer ideas as freebies such as consultations where people can read about and interact with you. The best way is to blog about it. Start a blog and be interactive with your fans and do not neglect your postings. The more people know about you, the more likely they will one day require your services. It is like a pay it forward concept but in many instances it works!
