Gavan is in fine voice as he discusses why you need to focus on going 1 inch wide and 1 mile deep with an absolute focus on developing knowledge and expertise if you want to be an entrepreneur who makes their mark on the world.

Taking a generalist approach to try and please everyone usually results in a lack of appeal and interest from anyone so getting focused finding a niche and becoming the most knowledgeable in your area is the only way to find the right market, one where people will be seeking you out.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • You can focus on going one inch wide and one mile deep as an entrepreneur
  • When you are a generalist you don’t develop the nuance and expertise that you can grow when adopting the 1inch wide and deep approach
  • Most people take a generalist approach to try and attract the most people but this, in fact, can mean you are too vanilla to be of interest to anyone.
  • Find your area of focus or your niche market and focus on it
  • What niche can you serve best?
  • You should build your business to be without you otherwise you have just created a job for yourself.
  • You cannot be everything to everyone.
  • Focus on doing one thing really well.
  • People want a specialist; they want someone who has knowledge and expertise.
  • The more you say no the more word gets out that you are a specialist.
  • Pick an industry then pick a very specific area within it as your niche.

 

BEST MOMENTS

‘There are 7 billion people out there so there’s a market for every sort of specialist’

‘Become the most knowledgeable in your area’

‘You can apply the 1inch wide, 1-mile deep approach to all areas of your life’
