The first step is to identify the niche market that you want to target. This can be done by looking at your skills, interests, and passions. Look for trends that are not yet in the mainstream. Narrow down your focus to something specific. Research your competitors

The next step is to find a product that will fit into this niche market. You can do this by looking for products that are already in the niche market or by creating your own product.

Potential Evergreen Niche Product Markets

The following is a list of potential “evergreen” niche markets and product ideas.

  1. Eco-friendly/sustainable products

    Consumers today care about how the products are sourced and produced. According to a survey in 2020 by IBM 1, nearly six in 10 consumers were willing to change their shopping habits to reduce environmental impact.

  2. Pet products

    There are a lot of opportunities to develop a niche within this market across different types of pets, lifestyles, and more. Many people added pets to the family during the pandemic. This market was thriving even prior to the pandemic. In 2020 sales topped a historic high $103 6 billion, according to the American Pet Products Association (APPA) State of the Industry Report. That marked an increase of 6.7% over 2019 retail sales of $97.1 billion.  In 2020, 30% of pet owners reported they spent more on their pet/pet supplies.2

  3. Travel related

    As pandemic lockdowns are lifted, people are ready to travel.  Some are traveling for work, while others are traveling for recreation.  One niche market that is ripe is eco-friendly vacations.  Research reveals almost three quarters (72%) of travelers believe that people need to act now and make sustainable travel choices to save the planet for future generations. 3  Many travelers are also looking for authentic local experiences, convenience, and long-term trips.  Potential products include luggage, electronics as well as pet travel options.

  4. LGBTQ+ community

    According to LGBT Capital, the LGBTQ+ community’s estimated purchasing power is upward of $3.7 trillion globally. 4 There are many opportunities to connect with this rapidly growing niche market.

    The home office used to be exclusively for freelancers and entrepreneurs.  Thanks to the pandemic lockdowns, many people who began working remotely from their homes continue to do so. Keeping these remote workers’ motivations and lifestyles in mind can help you identify product ideas.   Focus on solving problems that will help remote workers and the companies that employ them achieve their goals.

  6. Health & Wellness products

    Heath & Wellness is already huge.  The health & wellness food market alone is expected to reach 162.09 billion by 2026. 5 It’s so big, it’s hard to consider it a niche market.  With that said, there seems to be a constant flow of new trends and unique products. There are many untouched micro-niche territories, which means .

  7. Beauty and health products

    Beauty and health products industry is regularly cited as one of the fastest-growing industries online. Niche market product options here are virtually endless.   In case you haven’t noticed, there are a lot more beauty products created for men and there’s no end in sight. There’s a growing number of traditional men’s beauty products like shaving creams, shampoo, fragrances and beard oil.  However, there are a lot of new products emerging like concealers and makeup made just for men.

Finally, you need to create a marketing strategy for how you will sell your product. There’s a huge difference between  marketing tactics vs marketing strategy.  Marketing tactics are things you do, like sending out postcards.  There are marketing tactics which work great for some businesses but not for others.

Different types of sales need different marketing tactics and strategy. How you advertise your business depends upon the type of sale you are making. Advertising major sale products is dramatically different than for minor sale products.

The final stage of your marketing strategy is deciding what marketing channels you will use.

How to Choose the Best Niche Market for Your Product

A niche market is a group of people with a shared interest, lifestyle, or problem. Underserved markets or those who have untapped needs are ideal.

There are many ways to go about finding your niche market, but the easiest way to do it is by using Google Trends and Keyword Planner. You should also consider the following points:

  • How much money is being spent?
  • How many people are interested?
  • What problems do the members of this niche have?
  • Can I provide a product or service to solve these problems?

How to Sell Your Product in the Right Niche Market

How to sell your product or service depends upon whether you’re making a major or minor sale.  If you’re making a major sale you need to use different marketing tactics than you would if you’re making a minor sale.

The Internet has made it easier for people to find information. As a result, content marketing is a key element in any niche marketing strategy.  In order to sell your product in the right niche market, you need to know what your target audience is and what they want. You also need to know how much competition there is in that niche market.  Who are your competitors?  Why are they successful?  Where are they weak?

Ideally you’ve found a product that doesn’t have many competitors but people are actively searching for it online. If you find a lot of competition and not many people searching for your product, then it’s time to go back to the draying board.
