Turning Hobbies into Niches: Finding What Excites You
Everyone’s got something they mess with just because they like it. Baking. Playing guitar. Getting lost in video game mechanics. Reading a rabbit hole until 3AM. But here’s what this book is about: You can take that thing and turn it into something people actually care about. Something they might even pay for. You already do this for fun, why not do it with some intention?
Initially, your niche is one of the most important choices you’ll make if you’re trying to create content that lasts. Because when you're into it, you're not forcing yourself to show up. You don’t need a productivity hack. You can just keep going because your brain won’t shut up about it. So how do you know if something’s worth building around? Start here: What’s the thing you get lost in? The thing you do for hours and forget time’s even moving? What topic hijacks your attention online to the point where you’ve dug deeper, maybe too deep?
Then look around. Are people asking you about this thing? Are you the go-to person for sourdough tips? Camera setups? Weirdly specific Excel formulas? If folks keep hitting you up about it, that's a sign. You're not the only one who cares. You’re just the only one who's gone deep enough to have answers. Anything you’re getting genuine compliments about is a viable option here.
Next: What does your thing do for people? Does it solve a problem? Kill stress? Teach them something? Makes them laugh when they’re about to lose their mind? All of these add value. And value is the only thing anyone’s ever paid attention to, ever.
Also, does this thing match how you actually operate? If it’s creative and you love making stuff, great. If it’s more technical and you like digging into how things work, that’s perfect too. Just make sure the thing you choose to build around isn’t at odds with how your brain functions. The goal here is to align what you already care about with what other people care about too. If you get that right, everything else is way easier.
Evaluating Market Demand: What People Are Willing to Watch, Read, or Buy
Turning your passion into a profitable niche is only half the equation. The other half, and arguably the most critical, is ensuring there’s an audience for what you’re creating. Evaluating market demand is the process of understanding what people are actively seeking out, consuming, and, most importantly, spending money on. It’s where personal passion intersects with external interest to create a truly viable content strategy. To start, look at what’s already working.
Platforms like YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and even Amazon are treasure troves of information on market demand. Search for topics within your area of interest and analyze the performance of content in that space. Are certain videos racking up millions of views while others barely break the hundred mark? Are particular types of posts or products consistently receiving likes, shares, or positive reviews? These metrics serve as early indicators of what people find valuable. But don’t just look at the numbers, look at the comments, too. What questions are people asking? What frustrations or needs are they expressing? These are clues to what your audience wants but isn’t fully getting yet.
Use keyword research with tools like Google Trends, YouTube's autocomplete, or dedicated platforms like SEMrush to help you identify the topics people are actively searching for. For a gardening passion, you might discover that “low-maintenance indoor plants” is a highly searched phrase. This insight tells you not only that people are interested in your niche, but also the specific angle that grabs their attention.
