I’m new to this sub and I’ve done some poking around. It seems that the unanimous advice in this sub for people looking to become an entrepreneur is ‘find a problem and sell the solution’.
I’m from a poor family and I’m just a simple working folk. I’ve been trying to think of a way to break free from that life most of my adult years but have never found a way to make it happen.
So my question is. Since I’ve been trying to find a problem to solve for most of my life and failing to do so. How can I make a shift to really find that problem I can solve? It seems most people in here have businesses. What problem did you solve and how did you figure out that problem to begin with?
It’s not easy to get a market to buy a solution to a problem you have to tell them they have. What is obvious is when a market is buying solutions to an already identified and accepted problem from various sellers where none stand out as a leader. THIS is an opportunity.
TL/DR: start a business that solves an existing, obvious problem and do it better than the disorganized competition.
