A Good Business Idea

Your Idea

An original idea?

A good business idea could be an invention, a new product or service, or an original idea or solution to an everyday problem. It might also be:

  •   a gap in the market that you can fill
  •   a business related to the work you do already
  •   turning an interest or hobby into a business

    Whatever your idea is, you need to be sure that it fits with your needs as an individual, as well as being a viable business proposition. Ask yourself some questions about it, for example:

  •   What is it that you will bring personally to the business in terms of relevant experience and expertise?
  •   Is there a market (a need for the idea, and customers who will pay for it)?
  •   How big is the market, and how will you reach it?
  •   Who will be your main competitors?
  •   What is special about your idea, making it different from similar products or services already out there?
  •   How will you fund your business idea?
  •   What might go wrong?
