We get paid for helping solve these problems. Often we are so caught up in our businesses that we don't have time or take the time to think about problem solving. Thanks for the insight. Justin,

My mind took off and started making ways to induce enough people to try setting fire to their hair! Now there's a marketing challenge !! Then my mind sped to "perceived need"and how marketers over the ages have worked this very well to broaden the spectrum. In the 1930's and early 40's a clever Aussie company sold a body building proposition to average blokes when there was really no market of consequence in that era(we'll pass on the "depression" word,eh?). News media ads showed a comic strip impression of our regular bloke sat on the beach with a couple of nice looking girls. Next pic shows a strapping bully kicking sand in our bloke's face and the girls copping an over spray!! Not a good look!! Next pic shows the girls looking at our bloke embarrassed and outraged, whilst he is just sits there with the" wishing to die look" !! . Then comes the headline :- DON'T LET THE BULLY KICK SAND IN YOUR FACE . LEND ME YOUR BODY FOR FOURTEEN DAYS . All to sell a spring loaded exercise device which I wont try to describe here. It apparently worked and suffice to say they sold heaps !! Plus the headlines entered into every day parlance for ages. I've taken up a lot of your space Justin. Hope the "perceived need" concept is of help in support of your thought provoking article. ... Hooroo for now.... G’day Justin,
Your “hair on fire”/”bottle of water” scenario certainly gains my attention mate, and illustrates your proposition in your natural “to the point” fashion. My mind took off and started making ways to induce enough people to try setting fire to their hair! Now there’s a marketing challenge !!

I hold it in my belief that ever niche has that hair on fire sub niche, it's just a matter of deep research to find out what it is. In the make money online niche you got the people who are right about to lose their job, their wives have given them a deadline to success, or they are one week away from having to get a job again. In the relationship niche you got the people wanting their ex back, or widows, or were just caught cheating. Just have to step back and really think about who is having problems and how can you help solve them.

My instructor was once on vacation showing a guy how to do a spinning back kick. The problem was he was on the beach so the sand didn't let him spin correctly... When the hips spin full force and the ankle doesn't follow it's not a good thing! He was alright in a couple weeks. OUCH! My instructor was once on vacation showing a guy how to do a spinning

I dunno the shoulder pain guys would probably disagree. All pain just sucks. Also I dunno about pouring salt into the wound, but just bringing a solution to their problems into view can be all you need.

And yes, I do laugh when someone gets hit in the nuts or stung by a bee. Just rambeling! You know darn well that it won't work. Wes I had a stupid thought cross my mind.

Lets face it everybody has a back ache or a neck ache when sleeping in a wrong position. I remember throwing a spinning back kick and spraining my ankle.
