Pain Point #1: "Hey everyone, I need some help with a really frustrating issue. I’m trying to log into Facebook, but it’s asking me for the six-digit code from Google Authenticator. The problem: Facebook is not showing up in my Google Authenticator app. I don’t recall deleting it, and I have no backup codes saved. I reached out to Facebook support, and they said there’s nothing wrong on their end and to contact Google. Contacting Google feels impossible; there’s no straightforward way to get someone on the phone or live chat." Opportunity: Develop an emergency access recovery tool for authentication apps that securely backs up authentication data and provides easy recovery options in case of app issues or loss of codes. Justification: - Demand: Many users report frustrations with lost access to accounts due to issues with authenticator apps. This is a repeated pain point for individuals and businesses reliant on two-factor authentication. - ROI: Offers a clear value by preventing business disruptions, saving potentially lost revenue or service downtime in case of authentication lockouts. - Scalable: Can be integrated across multiple authentication services and platforms, with a tiered subscription model for individual and enterprise customers. - Purple Cow/Controversial: Offering a solution that big tech companies like Google or Facebook haven't addressed directly places this product at a unique advantage. It's both a proactive and reactive solution for a widespread issue. --- Pain Point #2: "We have so much impact on the businesses we help, how are we at the edge of collapse?!" Opportunity: A platform that helps service providers track and quantify the ROI of their services in real-time, offering proof of value to retain and expand their client base. Justification: - Demand: There is a frequent realization among service providers that despite delivering significant client value, they struggle with retention and growth. Many are unable to articulate their impact quantitatively. - ROI: By equipping businesses with data to showcase their impact, they could enhance client satisfaction and retention, thus increasing their revenues without proportionate increases in overhead. - Scalable: This platform can be expanded by integrating AI and analytics tools to cater to varied service industries and offer personalized insights. - Purple Cow/Controversial: It challenges traditional service delivery by adding a layer of transparency and accountability, pushing companies to quantify and understand their value proposition continuously. --- Pain Point #3: "I started making products for the van conversion market and I'm starting to pick up some traction as more people have begun to order and then share their positive comments on the various Facebook groups." Opportunity: A niche e-commerce platform exclusively for DIY van conversion kits and components, aggregating resources and community support for van life enthusiasts. Justification: - Demand: Growing interest in van conversions as more people seek mobile, minimalist lifestyles. The community-driven validation such as positive comments and orders proves interest. - ROI: Customers can see savings and value through bundled kits or exclusive products not widely available, supporting their conversion projects. - Scalable: The platform can expand with user-generated content, partnerships with manufacturers, and include marketplaces or how-to guides. - Purple Cow/Controversial: Offers a specialized marketplace in a niche sector often overlooked by generalized e-commerce sites, leveraging community feedback as a core component.
