002 | Should You Have a Niche as an Accountant?

Are you afraid to niche down your accounting business because you fear that you might run out of clients?

In this week's episode of The Abundant Accountant Podcast, Luke Gheen joins us to share the evolution of his business' niche.

When he first started out, Luke's primary goal was to bring in business and revenue to the firm, but he quickly learned that working with any ol' client was not what he had in mind when he decided to become self-employed.

Luke contemplated a few different potential niches, before naturally falling upon the one that he works with now (you'll have to listen to hear what he chose!).

By choosing a specific niche, Luke has been able to create tailor made services, and charge higher-end prices for them. Which means, Luke is able to work a little less clients, and make a little more money, leading to that Abundant Accountant life we all desire.

If you're ready to start working with your dream clients in the niche of your choosing, then this episode of The Abundant Accountant Podcast is a MUST LISTEN!
