Kate Kozial, president of a Chicago marketing firm, says that smaller firms can narrow their focus to a particular niche in their market - and become a much more attractive brand to potential clients in the process.

"If you narrow down to a focused market, you can concentrate on advertising to that market, doing public speaking to that market, pursuing trade or business press opportunities in that market."
