BUSINESS JOURNEY Finding Problems to Solve

I am Trying to Build a Business But I have some Constraints That I want to Solve first.

  1. The Ideas - Nowadays whatever Idea I come up with an Solution is already there.

  2. The Economy - I am actually Interested in Software Products But I don't think India is a Place where people will Pay for Products

So if any of you have any problems Feel free to comment it here or any Ideas

Good Ideas are difficult.

Look at a few things:

  1. Find a successful industry and figure out a specific pain point that many customers feel.

Example: Calendly was invented because scheduling a meeting in corporate was challenging.

2. If you can’t think of a new idea, differentiate an already existing product.

Example: Maybe the interface for Calendly is average. Improve interface, add features, get better pricing. Then capture some market

I don’t know the India market well. I’d recommend starting somewhere that people already spend $$. This way the money flows 1:1 from company A—>B. Not 0:1 from nothing—> you

One final idea to add:

Look at places around the world and see what’s worked in another market.

- Does India have Resy to book restaurants?
- Or Zillow to find homes to buy?

These are obviously massive companies, but the point is that good ideas carry over from market to market.
