The importance of the inclusion of ‘business’ in connection to niche is because as a Solo Business Owner it is important to consistently be kind to the mind and say out loud what is owned by the business. Just as it is with the business vision and values, the niche is the next most personal part of the Solo Business which is born directly from the Solo Business Human.

While it may feel at first to be fully personal on the page for the human, with time, the sense of something bigger continues to settle for the owner to feel focused and informed in the day to day delivery to deliver.
