How can you find out your niche?

    I've always wanted to start a business. However, finding something that I'm so passionate about seems to be quite a problem for me. I was wondering, how do most people find out what there niche is, and how do they implement it?

    Is there any way I can find out what my niche is without knowing what I'm over the top passionate about just yet in my life?

    Sorry if these questions are odd, but I feel like I have the tools and capabilities of making a successful business, just not the motivation for the beginning ideas and pursuit. Which if I could find out what my niche would be, then more than likely it would help with those.

    Does anyone have any useful suggestions for me?

    there are a few "hot" niches, I would research what niches are selling right now and see if there is a sub-niche that you can develop from one of those.

    go for hungry niches, the one whose people are desperate to remove or solve.

    it's not an odd question at all. it may take you or anyone a few failñures to find your niche. you don't necessary have to be pasionate about it, but it at least has to be in the range of your interests and knowledge. Just think about what you browse daily, is there anything that could be profitable? checking out the marketplaces and seeing what's hot might also help. good luck!

    Well I guess the two things I've always loved is Music and Movies. So maybe I'll do some research in those areas. Unfortunately, I lost of lot of my interests in past things when I went through my "hippy" stage

    Look into areas you've always been interested in -- your 'niche' doesn't even necessarily have to be something you're familiar with, just something that you feel suits you.

    Equip yourself with knowledge and a little of interest about your chosen niche. You can start from there to avoid losing focus as you go on.

    I'm just like you TS.
    I had different type of niche getting hot traffic so I myself is confused on which niche to take ..
    I supposed we should pick one that we know we could indulge more into?
