This is not a predictable tactic that would yield a viable SaaS idea, this is a gamble "go dive into the ocean, maybe you will find treasure"
- panorama 5y agoThis tactic is exactly how I found our idea. Of course you won't strike gold on the first person you talk to. Be smart about it, talk to people who work in an industry you would like to serve (doctors, lawyers, marketers, mechanics, etc.) and figure out the inefficiencies in their day to day life. It's not as hard as you've made it out to be.
- dinkleberg 5y agoThere is no predictability in starting a business. If we could easily predict the idea for the next big unicorn everyone would be going in on it. Starting a business is a gamble. If you don’t have some risk tolerance, starting a startup is not the right path.
- yibg 5y agoAre you expecting a predictable formula for starting a successful business?
- lazide 5y agoThere are some folks selling some, only $499.95 up front, hah.
- paxys 5y agoThere is no "predictable tactic" for being a successful entrepreneur.
- lazide 5y agoIf there IS no predictable tactic, and anything is going to depend on the skills, connections, and approach you bring to the job, then saying 'go dive in the ocean' will at least help someone find treasure, compared to saying nothing, or something so vague no one could be sure if it even applied? It's up to the recipient if they find it useful or not.
