[2023-06-24 08:58:11 AM] : Ugh, I am feeling stuck on selecting the “perfect” audience despite reading all about it. It’s scary. I want to select the perfect audience and sometimes it FEELS like audiences I belong to are not good enough.
Just sharing here because I am stuck on this for so long and it’s also written on the audience selection page that this happens.

In fact, you will probably pivot at some point in the future anyway as audience needs change.

[2023-06-25 10:56:14 PM] : I heard Amy and Alex say in the course that you don't have to be "married" to any audience. the purpose for selecting ONE right now is just for you to get the ball rolling.
[2023-06-26 05:24:34 AM] : Yup!
[2023-06-26 01:17:10 PM] : As other have said, you don't have to select the perfect audience, you can switch to a different audience in the future.
Fwiw, I started with iOS dev audience and launched a few ebooks, then switched to business owners who use Shopify, and launched a few plugins, the sales safari / ebombing skill can be carried over when you switch audience, and you might even have overlapping audience (I have subscribers who bought the iOS ebook and the Shopify plugin!), so its not exactly starting from zero when you switch audiences
