Who are the best sales people? Doctors. Why? They ask you questions, can get you naked, and make you cough funny in a very uncomfortable setting. (Oh and for some, they make you take pills that, with the wrong combination, can kill you- talk about a salesperson.)
How does this relate to finding an opportunity? If you ask questions you will find a Niche. (A Niche is a part of a market that is untapped).
Asking the right questions can be difficult so, KNOW your world. Once you understand your world – either by watching or reading or listening the news- you will be able to start asking the right questions. Question your own environment that is surrounding your world.
Once you find an idea ask these questions and answer them thoroughly:
1. What is the Industry?
2. Is there really a market need or did you invent one?
3. How big is the total market?
4. Who are your competitors?
5. How will you succeed?
6. How will you make money?
7. Are you sure your original?
8. What is your concept?
