So i've been going through old E-Business threads, and I came across this. I am sure this has been restated on this board a million times, but I just would like to bring it to the front again because I feels it's that important. One of the things that has been holding me back is looking for that "one idea". I feel this really puts it into perspective!
You guys are a little too concerned about your "idea". An idea means very little. It doesn't matter what you come up with. Chances are that someone else has already come up with the same idea.
What DOES matter, is how you execute and market your idea.
Friendster came up with an idea, but they are not nearly as successful as Myspace and Facebook that pretty much copied the idea.
One of my companies sold a product that thousands of companies all over the world had sold for decades when I started. I just decided to market it a different way, and within two years had the largest company in the world. The second largest company had been around for more than 25 years at the time.
Bottomline, it's very little about the idea and very much how you market that idea.
