The speaker, Hasan Aboul Hasan, shares his experience and offers practical methods to find ideas that solve real problems and have market potential, moving beyond guesswork and luck.

Key takeaways

• The Common Problem: Many aspiring online entrepreneurs struggle to find a business idea that is genuinely profitable, rather than lacking technical skills or marketing knowledge.
• Identifying Money-Making Ideas: The video distinguishes between useless ideas, "vitamin" ideas (which add some value but don't solve a core problem), and actual money-making ideas that solve significant pain points for a target audience.
• The Three Rs Formula:
  • REJ (Reverse Engineering JSON): Utilize API marketplaces like RapidAPI.com, extract example JSON responses, and use AI tools with specific prompts to discover hidden opportunities, potential problems, solutions, and target audiences within the data.
  • RPP (Reddit Pain Points): Leverage Reddit's search functionalities with specific queries to find discussions about user struggles, needs for tools, software, apps, or platforms, and search for alternatives to existing solutions. This method helps identify real, unmet needs.
  • RVD (Research Validated Databases): Explore websites like Exploding Topics, ExploriingStartup.com, Product Hunt, AppSumo, and Toolify (for AI tools) to identify trending topics, validated business ideas, successful products, and gaps in the market. Advanced search techniques on Reddit can be used in conjunction with Product Hunt to find missing features in popular products.
• Practical Application: The video emphasizes using these methods to find concrete problems and build businesses around them, with examples provided for each "R."
