when SAM OVENS mentions targeting a niche market, where does one find this so called "market"?

I'm like the Minimum Wage MBA. I have a pile of degrees and experience and very little money. But this is one of the best videos I've ever seen on KZread because it crystalises a number of things from my own experience into certainty. A satisfied customer is a customer whose problem has been solved. Problem solving is a skill the greats always talk about. Well done, Sam, top notch.

I’ve been building my own coaching business for 7 years, getting certified, trained, and working with clients. Growth has been slow only because I’ve held back thinking I need to be an expert. Sam is spot on and his message helps to remove this limiting belief. I’m now talking to my market and it’s helping me be laser focused on a solution someone actually needs and willing to pay money. People pay for a future free of what keeps them up at night. Great video!

I love learning

Coming back to this video multiple times over the years. Even when you get experienced is nice to remind these things. Be careful of people excuses, self-lies, insicurities that they project on others.

One of the most inspiring and affirming videos I've ever seen! I realize now that, as I get into starting my new Amazon consulting business, I've been doing the Market Backwards approach all along, but it sure feels good to have my method confirmed by someone else, and someone who's really made it work. I've always been a perfectionist, and it's held me back so much because I never quite feel like enough of an "expert." So, I keep reminding myself of all the useful skills that I do have, and keep learning every single day. Thanks, Sam.

Love it when I was at interviews and I was told that I was over qualified for the position 🤣 I can now say that I am finally heading towards my dream job and loving every minute! Loved your Webinar the other day! Thank you so much for putting it together! You motivated me! :D

Profound insight...if someone embraces this, it will radically change their life.

This happened exactly to me I studied social communication and since I didn't want to work in a company I started on my own business but I quickly realized that nobody cared about my degree and that I couldn't solve anany real problems so I had to unlearn all the nonsense that i learnded at university and learn what I really needed to solve problems. Know i know im on the right track. Having to be and expert its a lie!!!

I felt relief after watching your video. People use to asked me "what is your credential to advice me on this"...this make me think that I'm doing something unethical. I shall keep this video for future reference. Spot on Sam

Excelent video Sam. I tend to believe that I’m stopping myself from getting ahead by thinking that I must be an expert to succeed. Yes we have to continue improving but there’s no need to know it all to solve a problem. As always great and awesome content.

Totally right. Here in Brazil it's happening exactly like this. And worst, the college here is much more easy to jump in. Your in if you have ability to pay. Period. Good video.

Great strategy Sam and way of explaining what we consultants actually do! Solve customer problems which doesn’t mean we need to be experts etc.

Such great ideas. The desire of having to “know everything” before starting anything new, definitely feeds procrastination, it feeds my procrastination. This video has helped me understand why I can feel this way and great reasons why not to.

I 100% agree to this. It's like the universal law wether in the service industry or physical products industry as well. For example, you don't sell the products you want or like or know about, instead you start researching about the product using market demand and competition. Once you have this, then you launch that product. It's similar to consulting and I 100% agree to this.

I agree, Problem-first approach trumps content-pushing approach. Partly because the former uses questions to allow the client to express what's causing them pain and what their preferred outcome looks like. The latter is what the "experts" do... pushing content because they belief is that they know best. I appreciate your insights. They've helped me make a difference in the lives of my new clients.

This was awesome! I am actually in your program and have just began direct outreach this week. But I really like this style of video because I can watch one while I'm doing a chore or something, and it refreshes my mind on key points. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

There are a ton of people trying to make money by telling others what they already know, and that is a great practice for them...but its also stealing money from you. a library is your first place to learn without spending money on bs like this.

Common sense Sam. Real Happy to be fortunate enough to find your guidance... its hard to figure such things when you run from one thing to the next. Thanks for taking time to inform and guide us lost ones. Will be enrolling as soon as I get the funds...soon

Sam, you're such a beast. Thank you for all the value you provide! I don't know if you ever see this comment, but I hope you know that we are all very thankful! Cheers man

Thank you Sam. You are an amazing person. Thank you really much for sharing your priceless knowledge, experience and thoughts. I love your weekly vlog videos. Never stop making them, please :).

Ditto, Thank you Sam, I am looking in to the niche for my own business to start it.

Man this is so true. Right now trying to build the perfect bc I noticed that this probably the one thing holding me back. Tried to do pay per appointment at some time, but probably at a moment I couldn't get enough people with the permission to pitch

Hi Sam, I attended your consulting webinar a couple of weeks ago. Although I was a bit dissapointed that it was pre recorded I left with very valuable information. I'm a traveling 21 year old photographer writer, bum, vegan and whatever else you can think of who currently makes his money through commercial photo and videography. I wouldve loved to take your deal/discount on consulting classes + the Tai Lopez sale teaching but I currently did not have the budget for the generous price and now have to wait for the next opportunity to arise. Even though I don't have the funds to currently invest further in your knowledge of consulting to start my own practice I want to still thank you for giving this to us all and genuinely helping those of us who need a little help climbing higher to the top. I appreciate it Sam!

You’re so fucking smart and emotionless, love everyone of your videos. I have changed my mindset because of you after buying dumb shit courses from other “lambo gurus” but that’s my fault, I did bite that bait. Thanks for share all this Sam. You’re awesome.

youre changing lives. common sense is not always common practice. there are tons of people acquiring skills and certificates without knowing what market they want to serve or if there even is a market for it. Market first approach wins.

Thank you Ms Ovens! Such a informational + inspiring video! The Minimum Wage MBA was a reality-checker! Thank you!

Brilliant, simple and elegant. Thank You Sam.

Hey Sam thanks a lot for all your advices and motivational contents it really keeps me up to launch my business online. Cheers I appreciate that! 👍🏿

I learned another way to look at things. Good video sir!

What you say is very true, you just need to solve your clients problems and take risks developing your skills 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Great video Sam. I spent a long time trying to gather skills and got to market to realize that no one cared. Definitely a better model to follow.

Incredible...eye opening!!! Love this content!

I listen every morning and this one really sorted some things out for me. Bless you Sam!

I just discovered this channel and absolutely love it. I 100% agree with the problem solving aspect, but I am curious how this fits with the sports and entertainment industries. What problems are successful actors and athletes solving? Would that be the public's need to have fun, be inspired, or to take mental breaks from time to time? Or something else?

Thanks man i really needed that and here i was thinking to take a student loan for doing MBA next year and this advice really changes my approach to these things and i have listened the same things personally too that a person who is so smart to complete his phd is doing a job gets fired and a person who is just have BBA degree and no experience gets the job at google and that was seriously a mind f*ck to me and this really explains sh*t to me

Thanks Sam, this is great, I'm going to put this advice into action. *** 15:39 Haha! That's actually part of my plan: I want to make money, then go out and find intelligent people and give them money to just do anything (work for me, invest, travel the world, study, do their own research job, have a child...) This is the giving it back stage, not the making money stage, I'm weird, not crazy.

The money you make directly corresponds with the difficulty of the problem you solve. Great content brother!

@@cihan.a Wow. That would be absurd by American standards, let alone Brazilian standards, which is where I live. The most I charged hourly was something that would convert to about $15, and it was locally. With 50 dollars an hour you would have thousands of young Americans getting in line for the job. But can I compete with true native speakers? Does it make a difference proximity with students if the classes are by Skype? Don't get me wrong, $50 an hour is not an absurd income by itself, but you have to compare the income with the scarticy of the skill you are providing, and if I think about it, what really made my bucks with my private classes was my sales pitch. But scarcity doesn't necessarily translate to difficulty, speaking English in Brazil is scarce, only ~3% of people are fluent, but it really came to me with no effort at all, just like it came to you, you simply got exposed to it as a child (assuming you're native). So yes, you can make a decent livable income teaching English online, but don't expect to make a fortune when your competition has such a small barrier of entry.

Thats not true. I don't see how so many people can think that. $ from solving small problems for a lot of people = $ from solving big problems for a handful of people You don"t have to solve huge problems to make huge money.

What I struggle most - offering something "high ticket"... I sell websites like you used to do and I sell them pretty affordable in order to close clients who are sick of expensive agencies...and I feel, there is a need...but how would I transfer this into a high ticket offer or something equivalent? I really enjoy your videos btw...

Sam please release your old accelerator course, just the videos ! After that I won’t be a beginner and others like me will be able to sign up to your next program. This is what I want to do!

Thank you for such an awesome video! This was a great plan.

Great biz Philosophy, Love this!

Great insight Sam. Actually, it is common sense, not an insight. It shifted my perspective. I knew about the concept of 'solving the problem' but now I know how to turn it into real-world sense. Thanks a lot

I got so much value from this. Thank you Sam

There's a JP Sears video where he talks about his degree, obviously it's satire, he says because the best way to get started in your professional life is being 100k in debt. Then he says at the moment I'm unemployed but last month I worked for 3 days for an 18 year old tech entrepreneur, but he had to let me go because I lacked practical skills. Then he says, but I have a plan, I will use what I learned in my degree...to open a video rental store. GENIUS. You'd love that video

This was great, Sam. Easy to open the shell in mind. But question is how to make a conversation with B2B businesses?They do not reveal eir problem, usuall,

Fascinating and simple. My issue is that at a young age, I had to attempt to build a trust relationship with people who were looking to invest money. Tough to be willing to invest 20k with someone half your age.

Thank you

Hey Sam, thanks for the video! I really agree with you on solving problems. Critical to business. With that being said, what if you have solved the problem, yet customers just won't buy? My assumption is that you don't necessarily need expertise, but you do need proof. How do you create proof for the client? Also, I really like your slide decks. Any tips on create a great presentation? Do you use a template?

So if I wanted to make games, would solving a problem be like "there's not enough this kind of games" and do that kind of games?

Thanks i was scared, that i Will feel bad teaching what i know without any certificación o college degree, then i need to solve their problem, and thats what can help them

Good stuff

Makes alot of sense!

How do you go from the hypothetical “how much would you pay to solve this” to the actual, “x cost $$” pay me?

good positive talk man

very good video. cheers

sam, unbelievable value. Thank you so much

I love every second of this ❤

Overall your videos are great! But I don t share your opinion on degrees and MBAs. They are there to testitfy that you have successfully gone through the basics and advanced studies in the field you ve concentrated your efforts on. It doesn't make you all knowing, but it's a pretty strong and valid base to start with. If you believe NASA, Amazon and every corporations out there would hire people without degrees to fill in executive positions, non-executive positions, essential positions within different deparments, you re definetly wrong. For instance in accounting, they ll never hire you unless you ve gone through a bachelor (minimum). Businesses don't have time to teach you basics and advanced stuff which take years. Therefore they rely on your degrees to prove that you know your basics and that you are adequate to the job description. The system is built on this principle and it's been like that for decades. In consulting, someone without his basics covered through at least some degrees or many many years of experience will give out poor advices to his customers no matter the niche they re in. Not everyone is born a genius tbh

I think public education is brainwashing and makes us dumber. Fx doctors know how to poison people with toxic drugs so the symptoms gets hidden without adressing the cause. I recomend reading "dumbing down of america" by john taylor gatto.

I agree with you but I think this is changing, the amount of business CEOs who literally don’t give a shit about your degree is skyrocketing. Once our younger generation has all these lead positions in companies (CTO, etc) they will look for actual real life experience, travel, businesses you’ve started, social media presence, and most importantly SKILLS. I don’t think someone with an BA in accounting knows any more than someone who self-taught accounting over 4 years while working and saving money. Again, I agree but I think what Sam is saying will be 100% correct very shortly. And I’m sure a new form of education will pop up and will replace degrees as a prerequisite for any good job. :)

thank you Sam

i DEFINITELY DO NOT RECOMMEND ANY ONLINE COURSE . BUT he got a point on the market backward approach . actually this is a common practice for people in engineering who have acquired the "basic degree" but after a few years working in big corporation doing basic concrete structure stuff they left the company for some more specialized firm such as steel or glass structures . some even choose to do a phD and became not just specialized in practice but also in their academic qualification (and knowledge plus international connections that comes with the phd's exposure ) .
