3 Quick Steps to Finding the Right Business Idea

You want to start a business, but are you having trouble coming up with a business that’s right for you?

Or do you have so many ideas that you’re not sure which one to start?

Here are three quick steps you can take to find the right business so you can get started planning today.

Step 1: Answer These Questions

1. Ask yourself what do you love to do on your free time?

2. What interest or topic are you so passionate
about that you talk or read it about all day?

3. When people come to you for help or advice, what do they normally ask for?

4. What can you do that the average person doesn’t know how to do?

5. What tough experience have you been through in life that you fought, grew, and learned from? Can you now help others get through it?

6. What are you so passionate about, you’re willing to learn more information about it?

7. Do you have a talent you can use to make money selling or teaching it?

8. What hobby do you do in your spare time that you can sell or teach to others?

9. Take time to think of a product you complain about. How can you make this product better?

10. Think of a great product you use often. How can this product be better if certain things about it could be different?

11. What can you create to benefit your life or someone else’s life that hasn’t been invented yet?

Step 2: Pick the Best Idea

What’s one idea from step one are you so passionate about, you’ll love to spend hours working on it each day even for free?

The business idea you choose must be something that you enjoy doing. If you don’t enjoy doing it, the quality of the product or service will show that your heart isn’t truly in it which will then cause people to not want to buy it.

If there is more than one idea that you have in mind, choose the business idea that will take the shortest amount of time to create and will cost the least amount of money for you to start.

Step 3: Test it Out

Is this product or service profitable?
Your business idea has to be something a specific group of people will want to buy.

How is your competition doing? If there’s no
competition, there may be a reason why others aren’t selling it.

Do some market research and test the product or service out on a few people and see if it’s wanted or needed enough to become profitable.

Here are a few market research ideas you can start doing today:

– Find your ideal target market through social media, meet-up groups, gyms, networking events, etc. Ask them questions regarding your product or service.

– Give out samples of your product and ask for feedback.

– Offer your services for free in exchange for feedback.

– Look at your competition and find ways you can do it better.

– See what’s hot right now by what’s trending on the internet. Engage in the conversation.

– Read reviews on the latest books around your niche and find out what people problem areas are surrounding the topic.

Once you discover your product or service is a winner, it’s time to start planning ways to earn income with your new business!

If your biz isn’t the right one to start, go back and repeat the steps until you find the exact one that works for you and your customers.
