Abstract

Digital transformation in the Industry 4.0 era has accelerated changes in consumer behavior and intensified competition in online markets. Under heterogeneous and increasingly saturated conditions, mass-marketing approaches become less effective, making niche market strategies more relevant as a path to differentiation. This article aims to formulate a systematic framework for independently building a niche market in the digital era through a synthesis of academic literature and a practical social-media case. The study uses a conceptual literature review integrating niche marketing theory, niche success characteristics, and social media marketing dynamics. The review indicates that effective niche market development follows sequential stages: (1) identifying specific market needs/problems, (2) designing a relevant product/service solution, (3) sharpening the target into a clearly defined niche, (4) formulating a unique selling point (USP) and value proposition, (5) conducting small-scale validation through a portfolio/MVP, (6) executing social media marketing, (7) maintaining consistent content and digital branding, and (8) performing continuous adaptive evaluation. The @foodish_mks case reinforces that content consistency and social-media utilization act as key mechanisms linking digital marketing intensity to niche success. This article contributes a cross-sector niche-building roadmap aligned with algorithmic, community-based digital platforms, and proposes a testable hypothesis model (H1–H6) for future empirical validation.
