Niche Strategies in Performance Marketing
FAQ: niche strategies in performance marketing
Is a niche strategy only sensible for small companies?
No. Large companies also benefit by splitting their campaigns into several niche segments. Instead of one big generic campaign they run a portfolio of specialised campaigns – each with its own audience, messaging and landing page.
How do I find the right niche for my performance marketing?
Start with your most profitable existing customers. Which industry, company size and which problem do they share? Then validate the search volume and competition for niche-specific keywords. If there is sufficient demand at a manageable level of competition, you have your niche.

Can I serve several niches at the same time?
Yes, but start sequentially. Prove profitability in one niche before building the next. Each niche needs its own landing pages, its own ad copy and ideally its own case studies.
Which KPIs measure the success of a niche strategy?
The most important KPIs are: cost per qualified lead (not only cost per click), conversion rate of the niche-specific landing page, ROAS per niche segment and the customer lifetime value (CLV) of customers won through niche campaigns.
