You don’t pick your niche.
You are your niche.
Whats yours?

Everyone wants easy.

Start there.
People spend months debating what car they’re gonna buy, but decide the 5 biggest decisions of their life on a whim:
1) person you marry
2) city you live in
3) neighborhood you live in (yes, different)
4) who you work with
5) what you do
Highest ROI decisions out there.
You don't need to "disrupt an industry" to build a business.
Find antiquated industries, slow companies, and poor service
