Business Opportunities Weblog

My next participant in the 30 Second/One Question Interview series is Chuck Huckaby. I asked:

One man’s trash, is another man’s treasure. What product or service have you imagined would be a good business opportunity, but you’ve rejected because it’s too off the wall?

Chuck responded:

The more I think of it, I’ve never rejected a business idea simply because it was “too off the wall”… I’m the guy who published a newsletter reviewing MLM opportunities remember? (At least before the Internet came around so that anybody who could create a replicating web page thought they had created a viable business!)

I only ever rejected an idea because it seemed there was not enough demand for the project for the business to gain critical mass… like opening a Starbucks in the middle of the Sahara or some similar improbability. I have this urge to pay the bills you see.

Being an opportunity junkie, I had to learn to control my fascination with businesses of every kind by choosing to write about them instead of trying to DO all of them!
