Summary
Today's question comes from Dale, who asks how to get started in a saturated niche. How do you break in amongst the noise? I talk about crowded niches with Steve Kamb on Smart Passive Income Podcast 196 (http://www.smartpassiveincome.com/how-to-level-up-your-life-with-steve-kamb/). Neil Patel shared a good strategy for evaluating your competitors on Episode #67 (http://www.smartpassiveincome.com/neil-patel-seo/).

I share an exercise from my new book on validating your idea for a business, Will It Fly?, at http://willitflybook.com. Do you have a question about crowded niches?
