James Dooley shares the red car theory to explain how business owners can train themselves to spot opportunities they previously missed. Craig Campbell explains why basic questions like “what niche should I go into?” are weak, and why stronger questions should focus on partnerships, monetisation, skills, opportunity spotting and risk appetite.
