Oussama Ammar, partner à TheFamily, explique en quoi une solution n'est pas un problème... et comment faut-il envisager les problèmes pour ensuite, les solutionner. Points-clés: - Une aventure entrepreneuriale ne commence pas par une idée mais par un problème : quelque chose qui nous empêche de vivre et nous obsède. - Sont considérées ici les startups scalables - i.e. aux coûts variables très faibles et technologiques - attention, technologique ne veut pas dire technique ou complexe, Facebook n'est pas une innovation technique mais d'usage. - Les startups inventent ou réinventent leur catégorie : AirBnb attaque le problème de où dormir plutôt que de l'hotel. - Tout le monde est déjà sur des entreprises à risque usage faible et risque marché fort, il faut donc attaquer les domaines aux risques usage fort, risques marché faible : il faut tuer l'effet hollywood ! Hollywood ne sait pas prédire le futur car cherche des idées qui semblent plausibles. - Ta startup doit résoudre un problème que tu as tous les jours, il est beaucoup plus facile de vendre des anti douleurs que des vitamines. - Choisis une niche : quelque chose que peu de gens désirent ardemment et pour laquelle ils sont prêt à tolérer un produit pas fini. - Les bonnes idées sont celles qui ont l'air d'être des mauvaises mais qui sont en fait des bonnes idées. - N'essaye pas de lancer le prochain Twitter : les bonnes idées de startup ne sont pas souvent sexy et si tu veux résoudre un problème qui compte, tu dois mettre les mains dans le cambouis. - Va plus loin et apprends à exploiter pleinement tes idées avec Koudetat ! http://bit.ly/1yfECeC - Ne rate aucun événement de TheFamily, inscris-toi sur http://www.thefamily.co/education - Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SzYqtFgOXFo&index=1&list=PL_e3KIBwbAbWqdeAYu-op9bUpudfOfsz1 - Ecoute la version audio: https://soundcloud.com/startupfood/thefamily-podcast-comment-trouver-des-idees-de-startup

2. Your solution is not my (fucking) problem

3. Not Everything With A Plug Is Technology

4. Things that may be dismissed as fake technologies (Facebook,
Amazon) often resolve very challenging technological problems.

5. Amazon helped develop intelligent customer
recommendations and logistical efficiencies that allow you
to order almost anything, anytime, and get it the next day

6. Web companies that fail are the
companies that fail to exploit the
true power of the medium

7. Are There Any Real
Technologies Left?

8. The best companies create their own sectors
- They are not popular
- They are difficult to assess
- They have technology risk (but not insurmountable)
- If they succeed, their will be extraordinarily valuable

9. The best founders want to radically
change the world for the better.

10. So where to start?
The way to get startup ideas is not
to try to think of startup ideas. It's
to look for problems, preferably
problems you have yourself.

11. First and for all...
Let’s kill the Hollywood effect together

12. Organic Startup Ideas:
Advantages

13. 1. It ensures the problem exists

14. 2. You avoid "made-up"
or "sitcom" startup ideas

15. 3 - If you’re honest with yourself,
you know if you’re the right person

16. But there is an opportunity
at anthropology

17. You can either build something
a large number of people want
a small amount, or something
a small number of people
want a large amount (niche).
Choose the latter.

18. Who wants this so much that they'll use it even when it's a
crappy version one made by a two-person startup they've never
heard of? If you can't answer that, the idea is probably bad

19. But How do you tell whether something is the germ
of a giant company, or just a niche product?
Answer: it’s rarely obvious

20. The Best Ideas
“It’s a terrible idea”
*
"It’s a great idea!”

21. A good strategy: Live in the future,
then build what's missing.

22. The verb you want to be using is
not "think up" but "notice."

23. Pay particular attention to
things that bother you.

24. Worrying that you're late is one
of the signs of a good idea.

25. Turn off the unsexy filter and
the schlep (difficult) filter

26. Look in areas where you
have some expertise

27. One good trick is to ask yourself whether in your
previous job you ever found yourself saying "Why
doesn't someone make x? If someone made x
we'd buy it in a second."
You know there's demand, and people don't say
that about things that are impossible to build.

28. BUT "Entrepreneurship" is
something you learn best by doing it.

29. The two pillars of entrepreneurship:
ignorance and incompetence, so RELAX

30. Don't try to start Twitter. Those ideas are so rare
that you can't find them by looking for them.

31. Ultimately, your SOLUTION
is to SOLVE MY PROBLEM

32. Connect with your audience emotionally around
the problem, and then -- and ONLY then -- offer
your solution as the remedy to that problem

33. You are Welcome to Join the Adventure
