The bottom line of advertising is you must targeted a niche within a broader market to target with your promotions. If you don’t implement this strategy, you are wasting your valuable time and money.
Often people falsely believe they have The Product, that everybody wants and needs. Usually this is not the case, and most average Joe’s and Jane’s do not have the means or ways to advertise to everyone in the world.
