Stuck for ideas? Maybe you can use someone elses?

I was just checking up on Pete Williams blog ( He's the guys that sold the MCG for $500 - We have an article over in our successful australians section Chceck it out - http://www.aussietycoon.com/showthread.php?t=76 )

He discusses a great topic on leveraging existing ideas rather than trying to find the next greatest thing, he mentions how guys like Bill Gates, Richard Branson, Ray Kroc all used someone elses idea to build on and make thier fortunes, its a fantastic read.. check it out below..

So what do you think? I am really keen on this type of business, there are so many times that I see businesses and ideas, and I think to myself '.. I could do that so much better..' But I guess it takes the action to do these things..

so how many of you think you can make someone else idea a success.. and what is it? Or maybe you have already!

Thanks Brendan, it is so true.

There have been so many times where I have seen an idea executed poorly and still worked, and I imagine how well it would work if execute even better!

Thats a great read, it certainly hammers home that you don't necessarily need to be original in what business idea you have, but just make sure the way you execute it is done as innovative as possible.

Competition is healthy.. :)
