Why we need bigger problems

By Jim Connolly | July 24, 2012

Today, we have access to more processing power and more collective intelligence than ever before. The possibilities are endless.

The world truly is our oyster.

So, as business owners, what do we do with it all?

Typically, we use it to solve uninspiring problems.

Here’s the challenge with that approach: It leads to the development of uninspiring answers.

The most enterprising small business owners today, are looking for answers to the biggest problems facing their clients and prospective clients. They have figured out that the bigger the problem they can solve, the bigger they win.

There’s some real magic behind that attitude to problem solving, for those of us who decide to embrace it!

The small business owners I work with enjoy far more sales, attract better clients and grow amazing businesses.
If you want the same, here’s exactly how it happens.
