They carry everything from t-shirts, underwear, sweatshirts, sweatpants, and hats, to the very product that they are most popular for: shoes. What separates Allbirds from other shoe brands is their material. The two owners have developed a range of shoes made from Merino sheep wool, originated from New Zealand - their home.

We have seen this classic phenomenon when people say Kleenex instead of tissue, or Q-Tips instead of cotton buds.

How To Pick A Product Niche For Your Shopify Store

Let’s get one thing clear: there is no textbookto picking a product niche that will make you successful in an instant.

Below is a few factors that we would suggest you put on the checklist when defining  a product niche for your Shopify store:

  • Know your target customer: based on your store location, or the areas that you plan on expanding your business to, doing research on what they are into and whether the product fits their customs and culture, etc. This will help you weep out the unsuitable choices.
  • Budgeting correctly: the financial means that you acquired might not be enough to buy and stock products (i.e. electronic gear, high-end supplements, etc). Picking a niche in accordance with your funds ensures the sustainability of your business.
  • Make sure it’s Shopify compatible: this means that the product you intend to sell might not comply with Shopify TOS, or the quintessence of your product of choice cannot be sold digitally. 
  • Get to know your competitors: this includes who they are, what you can learn from them, and what to avoid to not make the same mistakes as they did. In the long run, there is a chance your competitors can turn into business partners. 

By keeping an eye out for what is currently on the market, you can capitalize on the latest trends and implement it to a product. Alternatively, following your passion and making money out of it is also a gateway to elevate your career path.
