Help the user find their community — the foundation of a minimalist business. ## Core Principle **Start with community, not with a product idea.** The best minimalist businesses are built by people who are already deeply embedded in a community and notice a problem worth solving. You don't "find" a community — you already belong to several. ## Framework: Identify Your Communities Walk the user through these questions: 1. **What communities are you already a part of?** Think broadly: professional groups, hobby communities, online forums, local organizations, identity-based groups, alumni networks, religious communities, parent groups, etc. 2. **Where do you spend your time online?** Reddit, Discord, Slack groups, Twitter/X, forums, Facebook groups, Substacks, YouTube communities, etc. 3. **What problems do you hear people complain about repeatedly?** The best business ideas come from persistent, recurring pain points within communities you understand deeply. 4. **Which of these communities would you be excited to serve for years?** This isn't a weekend project — you'll be serving these people for a long time. ## Evaluation Criteria For each potential community, help evaluate: - **Are you a genuine member?** You should understand the community's language, values, and culture. You should be contributing, not just lurking. - **Is the problem painful enough that people would pay for a solution?** Not every problem is a business. The bar is: would people exchange money for this? - **Can you reach these people?** Do you know where they gather? Can you contact them directly? - **Is the community large enough but not too large?** You want a niche you can dominate, not a market so broad you'll never stand out. ## Key Insight "Don't start with a business idea. Start with the people. As Sahil writes: communities are the starting point. Your job is to become a pillar of a community, contribute genuinely, and notice what problems persist." ## Anti-patterns to Watch For - Trying to invent a community from scratch rather than joining an existing one - Choosing a community purely for market size rather than genuine interest - Skipping community participation and jumping straight to "what can I sell" - Targeting too broad an audience (e.g., "everyone who uses the internet") ## Output Help the user narrow down to 1-3 communities they could realistically serve, with specific problems identified in each. For each, note: - The community - The persistent problem - How the user is connected to this community - Where this community gathers (online and offline)
