Your Business Plan In today's competitive market, you've got to separate yourself from the pack by identifying  a niche. For your business to be a success, this means distinguishing your business from  everyone else and attracting the right customers. Unfortunately, in today's  cyber-consuming world, products and services that customers have to choose from can be  overwhelming. Therefore, you can no longer simply compete against everyone in a similar  field; you win by being perceived as special, unique, or one-of-a-kind. You have to  determine if the niche is large enough and profitable enough to justify a business.

This effort requires detailed market analysis and the right research tools to identify your  market, your customer base, your competition, and your niche. This workshop will  examine various approaches and techniques for brain storming your niche ideas. This  class is being taught by a local SCORE counselor and a Reading Library reference  librarian, using the various modules of referenceUSA - an interactive, business and  consumer database for research and analysis . With available information on over 20  million businesses and 220 million consumers, this worksho p applies to start-up ventures,  existing businesses, and entrepreneurs.
