Five Ways to Find the Perfect Business Idea
One of the biggest struggles I had in starting my business was actually coming up with the idea. I wanted something that was scalable as well as needed in our society. I combed through hundreds of ideas before settling on my current venture. Through this discovery period, I uncovered what I believe are the five most important concepts in determining what makes the perfect business idea.
So, what is a perfect idea? Each individual entrepreneur has their concept of the perfect business. While Google is a great business for the founders of that company – it may not be a great business for others that are non-tech savvy or who do not want to run such a large organization.
Therefore, each perfect business is defined by the business owners. Keeping this in mind, let’s start on my five concepts of finding the perfect business:
Still Searching for that Million Dollar Business Idea?
The idea of starting a business is alluring to so many people. There is the vision of wealth, providing opportunities and security. Also there is pride and purpose- knowing what you’re doing is for you and your family. And of course, one of the most appealing reasons is the freedom of being able to work from home and choose your own hours.These visions are wonderful and, in many cases, attainable. In fact, according to the U.S. Department of Commerce, there are over 17.6 million businesses with one or more owners but no paid employees.
So why are so many aspiring entrepreneurs left on the sidelines?
It turns out, there are three reasons. One, as you can imagine, is good old fashioned fear. Fear of the unknown. Fear of failure. Believe it or not, fear of success. The second reason is a lack of knowledge. “Where do I start?” “I don’t have enough resources.” “I don’t know anything about marketing.” And the third reason, which I will be discussing in this article, is about the business idea, itself.
