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?

    We saw a distribution gap between manufacturers and online retailers like Amazon.

    There are certain products which have a stupid high demand (ex: Speed Stick Deoderants) on Amazon, and there was money to be made buying said products from distirbutors at wholesale costs, prepping them, and retailing them on Amazon. (Commonly known as 3rd party sellers or Amazon FBA)
