If “start a business” is on your mind but you’re not sure where to begin, this guide distills Wheon.com Business Ideas into practical playbooks you can execute today. You’ll get frameworks, validated idea starters, quick tests to avoid sunk costs, and simple metrics to know when to scale.
The 3-Part Filter (before you spend $1)
Run every idea through this fast screen:
- Pain > Novelty: Does it solve a painful, frequent problem for a specific group?
- Distribution First: Can you reach that group in 1–2 channels you already understand?
- Unit Economics: Is there a clear path to 60%+ gross margin or strong recurring revenue?
If an idea fails two of three, park it. There are plenty of Wheon.com Business Ideas that pass.
