Show Notes

S.U.R.G.E – Power of waves.

Niche important but not enough. Customer is always moving.

S – Separate

U – Unifying needs

R – Rally

G – Gather

E – Expand

Start by picking a niche. Look for imminent waves. Evaluate waves as they approach. Customers speak truth through their wallet.

Niche – resistance points are that it is risky and need to fire clients. No industry disappears over night.

Unify – understanding the needs of customers. Requires curiosity. Ask enough people.

Rally – wave starts to carrying you. Unifying message – reason to exist. rally cry becomes a filter. Know purpose. A distinct rally creates momentum.

Gather – pocket of wave – most energy of the wave. Perfecting offering, make adjustment, tweak the offering. Observe behaviour.

Expand – $10 to $50 million. Take it to another niche.

Key Points

Identify niche.

  1. trust people wallets over words.
  2. which clients do you like
  3. what intrigues you
  4. Test the niche at conferences and influencers in the market.
