"In my opinion, a successful segmentation will be less demographically driven (e.g., net worth or income striations) and more affinity driven (tapping into a deep pool of investors who share a common passion — auto racing, yachting, the arts, religion, and so on)." writes Scott Welch of Fortigent, LLC in "Differentiating When Consulting to the Ultra Affluent," an article I blogged about on August 25.

Russ,
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting my blog and commenting again!
Personally, I can see how concentrating on a writing niche has made it easier for me to market. I can focus my marketing efforts, unlike my generalist colleagues.
