Comments on: Friday Q&A: 2 Ways to Come Up With a Profitable Business Idea Today https://www.groovehq.com/blog/friday-qa-june-02-2017 Sat, 16 Feb 2019 11:41:09 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.5.1 By: Mohit Mamoria https://www.groovehq.com/blog/friday-qa-june-02-2017#comment-610 Tue, 06 Jun 2017 15:08:51 +0000 http://www.groovehq.com/blog/?p=725#comment-610 If I can add to this conversation, I’d tell that I failed at first 2 businesses that I built because I was trying to solve someone else’s problem. I desperately wanted to start a business and was actively looking for ideas. And the threshold to measure the quality of an idea was to ask myself the question, “Can I build it?”

I have realized that it is not a good question to ask. I ended up making products that I could build but users didn’t want to buy. Bad state to be in.

Then, I started reading a lot and noticing my day-to-day life. And then I started realizing the problems that really required a solution. And on top of which, profitable businesses could be built too.

(Also, to give back to other smart creatives, who love making things, I started a newsletter that curates all the problems worth solving. It is my personal side project. If any one could benefit from it — https://unmade.email)
