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?
Have you seen the video posted the other day of how door dash was invented ? It was 5 guys who came together and simply asked a question. They went around asking restaurants in the Bay Area what they needed and after doing a ton of interviews over 100 they narrowed down a problem that needed solving. So it basically comes down to being open minded and letting the customer dictate the problem through the exploration phase
