Can I productize before I have a niche, or is that backwards?

I keep circling productizing my frameworks because I want time back, but my membership audience is broad and I know it. I tried turning one workshop into a paid self-paced offer—sold a handful to current members, then nothing. Has anyone productized first and let the niche come after, or am I about to burn another quarter?

CONTEXT AT PUBLICATION

What a useful answer should help achieve

A go/no-go rule for productizing broad IP without another failed launch.

Already tried

Turned an existing workshop into a self-paced offer; a few members bought, then sales stopped.

Constraints and unknowns

Broad audience and no clear niche; limited time to build before client work pulls her back.
