TMBA 364: Sometimes the Best Business Idea is the Most Obvious

Podcast 40:59 | Download | Stitcher | iTunes | Comment

Back in 2012, Dan and Ian hosted a two week seminar in the Philippines. It was attended by 44 listeners of this show - and Sarah Kornblet was one of them. Since attending that workshop, Sarah has set up a successful business as an attorney for online entrepreneurs.

This week's episode is really the story of what has happened in Sarah's life since 2012. It is also the trajectory of an idea, because every business starts with one (or more).

But .. sometimes we aren't ready for those ideas, or those ideas aren't ready for us.

Listen to this week's show and learn:

• How Sarah first discovered this podcast. (3:15)

• Why Sarah's first idea for a business was ultimately unsuccessful. (11:30)

• What made Sarah realize that she should be pivoting back to the legal space. (15:29)

• The challenges of turning your expertise into something that people can buy. (28:00)

  How Sarah has found unique ways to market her services. (34:00)
