What are the four basic sources of entrepreneurial opportunities?

Entrepreneurship is a process in which entrepreneurs and entrepreneurial partners optimize and integrate the resources they have or make efforts to create greater economic or social value. The following are the four basic sources of entrepreneurial opportunities I collected for you. Welcome to read and collect.

first, the upgrade type.

that is, redesign and improve the existing products and services.

second, the trend type.

that is, follow the new trends, such as e-commerce and Internet.

third, research type.

that is, entrepreneurs need to find entrepreneurial opportunities through systematic research and analysis.

fourth, random type.

that is, by chance, it's a coincidence. Such as good ideas and ideas found randomly.

when a new industry appears, it will certainly provide many entrepreneurial opportunities and trigger a large number of entrepreneurial upsurge. However, there are considerable risks behind following the new trend. Because, it seems uncertain how big the new industry is and how to explore the potential customer demand. When the personal computer industry appeared, it triggered a large number of entrepreneurial opportunities for upstream and downstream related products and services, but not all entrepreneurial opportunities were successful.

Some people attribute the idea of starting a business to chance, which is called "accidentally planting willows in the shade". However, experts who study creativity think that creativity is only the tip of the iceberg. Without the hard work on weekdays, the opportunity would not be so coincidental. Countless people saw the apple fall to the ground, but only Newton can produce the association of gravity. The so-called coincidence or sixth sense intuition is mainly because entrepreneurs cultivate keen observation ability to detect environmental changes on weekdays, so they can form creative ideas ahead of time. For example, during the formation of the gold rush in San Francisco, countless poor people rushed to Jinshan with beautiful expectations, but the founder of Levi's company happened to see the business opportunity of "supplying durable canvas". Therefore, he immediately started the production of jeans made of canvas and sold the products to the above-mentioned many gold diggers, thus becoming a beautiful talk for starting a business in the future.

there are seven ways to explore entrepreneurial opportunities.

explore entrepreneurial opportunities by analyzing special events. For example, a blast furnace steelmaking plant in the United States had to buy a mini-type steel furnace because of lack of funds, and then there was an unexpected result that the latter's profit rate was higher than the former. After further analysis, it was found that the market structure of American steel products had changed, so this steel mill will focus its future investment on mini steelmaking technology that can quickly respond to market demand.

Explore entrepreneurial opportunities by analyzing contradictions. For example, most of the services and products provided by financial institutions are only aimed at large professional investors, but the general investment public, which accounts for 7% of the market funds, has not received due attention. This contradiction shows that the product market that provides general public investment services will have great potential.

Explore entrepreneurial opportunities by analyzing operating procedures. For example, in the process of global production and logistics system, many entrepreneurial opportunities for information service and software development can be explored.

Explore entrepreneurial opportunities by analyzing the' trend' of industrial and market structure changes. For example, in the trend of privatization of state-owned enterprises and free competition in the open market of public sector industries, we can explore many entrepreneurial opportunities in the transportation, telecommunications and energy industries. Many new entrepreneurial opportunities can also be found in the knowledge economy scheme just launched by the government.

Explore entrepreneurial opportunities by analyzing the changing trend of demographic data. For example, the rapid increase of single-parent families, the trend of women's employment, the phenomenon of aging society, the change of education level and the expansion of teenagers' international outlook will inevitably provide many new market opportunities.

Explore entrepreneurial opportunities through changes in values and cognition. For example, the change of people's cognition of dietary needs has created new industries such as gourmet market and healthy food market.

Explore entrepreneurial opportunities through the generation of new knowledge. For example, when the human genetic image is completely solved, it can be expected that it will inevitably bring many new career opportunities in the fields of biotechnology and medical services.

Although a large number of entrepreneurial opportunities can be explored through systematic research, the best ideas still come from entrepreneurs' long-term observation and life experience. Starting a business is like being pregnant in October. The idea of starting a business is constantly pondered and studied in the entrepreneur's mind until the entrepreneur feels that the time is up.

Introduction of good business opportunities

1. Beauty industry: training institutions and service providers specialized in beauty industry:

1. Beauty school: At present, the entry threshold of beauty industry in China is low, and the number of employees is still in a surge trend in the tertiary industry. According to a conservative estimate that the average annual growth rate of the beauty industry is more than 2%, the market gap of beauty practitioners is huge, and about 2.4 million people need to be added every year. This has attracted a large number of young people, especially migrant workers, to join the beauty industry. But at the same time, their comprehensive quality also needs to be improved. Therefore, it is imperative to establish professional beauty training, but now some beauty training and hairdressing training have no brand, and they are mixed. In this respect, a big brand can be established.

2. Beauty industry integration website: As far as I know, no one in the industry does this now, that is, some professional websites, such as bidding ranking or public comments, integrate all beauty salons and make market recommendations according to service quality, product characteristics, business characteristics and other aspects, because many consumers are worried when they go to beauty salons, afraid of being slaughtered, afraid of ineffective, afraid of poor service, and worried about many things. In fact, worrying is business.

Second, the catering industry:

I think there must be a market if a self-help restaurant is established, especially for the post-8s or 9s. The so-called self-help is not a popular buffet in the market now, but a restaurant with decoration features, all vegetables and ingredients are purchased, and consumers are allowed to do it under the guidance of chefs. The restaurant is equipped with a special camera and editing team. When a boy or girl is cooking, Professionals are filming, editing the dishes as quickly as possible after the dishes are finished, matching all the music, and when the other half arrives, eating the dishes cooked by the other half and watching the hard work of the other half, I believe the other half will be moved to tears, and it is very suitable for couples and marriage proposals.

Third, energy training industry:

In view of the current lack of energy management professionals in China, the demand for energy professionals in XX years is nearly 6,. However, there are no specialized training institutions in domestic universities or enterprises, and employees are generally sent abroad. With the development of energy in China, talents in this field will become increasingly scarce. Nowadays, universities only have laboratories, but there is no specialized training for energy engineers.

Four: Community:

Nowadays, people are receiving more and more information, and the gap between people is getting wider and wider. Trust has basically been lacking, and distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. Now it is just a joke, but the traditional culture of China will definitely return. This is just like many of us now like to go to the most antique places for travel and eat in the countryside, but there is a lack of culture in it. Community newspapers and community fruit supermarkets are established to sell fruits. There are many markets in this area!

Some of the above ideas have taken shape, and some are still brewing. I just hope to help those entrepreneurs who are confused. Entrepreneurs who are looking for business opportunities, some projects are just making money, don't think about going public, and some models can't be clearly expressed in words. If you are interested, we can discuss them together, but when you want to make it, please treat me to a big meal! ;
