How to come up with a good idea for business?

It is quite natural that when we constantly hear how it is good to be a good businessman, many people may want to start business. But for many of people business is still the mystical concept. Business needs an idea. Even if the idea is copied hundred times and used, you still need to somehow come up with exactly what to do. What to sell? What services to provide?

Once upon a time, at the end of university I did not have a clue what I could do as an entrepreneur, so I chose a career in the company. At present I already have business ideas and know from where they came. To implement them is my second step.

First of all, perhaps it is not possible to come up with good business ideas if not try anything. For example, laying in bed, looking at the ceiling and suddenly hits the idea – I will go and provide SEO optimization services for web pages. For that you need to know what SEO is. Even if your idea is to trade potatoes online – you must know what the potatoes are, what is Internet and that for some reason these two things in combination would be interesting for many people.

Do anything. Ideally if you do what you want – it will not necessarily become a business, but it will be good source of ideas. Even if you are faced with a problem and solve it, think maybe you can solve such problems for others?

Another source of ideas is the people around. Sometimes being alone, even if you know the problem, you cannot come up with a solution, possibly because you lack of knowledge or understanding.  Furthermore, in order to know a lot of all sorts of problems in matching the business, you need to accumulate a lot of experience. But when in one place gather a lot of people with a lot of experiences, they begin to talk about afflicting problems to each other, they begin to suggest ideas for each other and thus businesses are born.

Go and get acquainted with actively creating people. It does not matter where – in the  events, seminars, online or on the street. Business ideas are born in communicating and sharing problems, emerging in activities.

Of course, there is a third source – simply copy.
