What’s your pain point?

What if you clearly defined an annoying pain point you have?

What if that pain point represented a pain point of your tribe? Like baby boomers? Millions of people with the same pain point.

And you could solve or just ease that pain point?

Just brainstorm what this pain point and solution could mean. A pain point (or a solution) could be a discomfort, an annoyance, a faster cup of coffee, a morning reading plan, a 15-minute exercise routine, a pleasant blog post to read every morning, a podcast for your afternoon walk, a Bible quote. Inexpensive gift ideas for grandchildren grouped by age and cost.

If you have some ideas, just take this moment to list them on paper. On in a notepad on your phone.

Now you have a list of pain points and solutions.

And maybe. . .

Maybe you have just created a product that meets the need of a niche market.

And that is how creative people create things that solve problems and serve a marketplace.

If you want to put a dollar figure on this, then you have just created a solution for a marketplace that could make a sizable living for you.

Today look at the next “new thing” that you buy. The creator of that product or service started with an idea and list like you have.

They clearly defined a pain point and solved it for a specific market.

Someone is doing that right now.

Why not you? Why not now?

What’s your pain point today? What’s the solution.

Now start a plan to bring that solution to your tribe.

It all starts with you seeing your pain point differently.

Seeing your pain point as an opportunity.
