Of course you do because if your niche can sense that you are �one of them' your sales conversion will increase. So a great strategy for you is to be relatable to your customers and find out what goes through their minds.

It is a good idea to hang out with them in online forums, message boards, blogs, etc., on your particular niche and get a feel about their thinking patterns.

Think about it; if your customers sense that you are their friend that truly understands their deepest fears and desires, how much more effective will your messages be to your niche?

Maybe you've narrowed it down even further and found out that they are furious about girls laughing at their pathetic, flabby bodies. This in turn frustrates them that they are labeled as �runts.'

Then you found a forum where they hang out and find out that they all talk like Andy Stitzer from that wonderful movie 40 Year Old Virgin.

And finally you've found out that they stay up all night because their sexual frustration is built up to a peak. So they lock their doors, get some lotion, and stay up all night surfing the internet for some�video games! What else relieves more tension than pounding at a video game control pad?

Now that trust and relationship is established, give them more of what they want, fitness products! They did mention their frustrations with being runts remember? There are many other ways you can go about this, but the bottom line is to have a deeper understanding of your niche before you market to them!
