Greetings !

Today's newsletter features a video that explains the Reduction pattern in my new book, which made it onto the NY Times Best Sellers List again for the month of April. If you haven't picked up your copy, buy it HERE now to get $250 worth of FREE extras from Trend Hunter (each book has a special code that unlocks all a variety of free trend research).

In the video, I share the story of the company I Do Now I Don't, a brand that found opportunity in failed happily-ever-afters by reselling engagement rings. I Do Now I Don't is a key example of the pattern Reduction in my book and the concept of uncovering opportunity in an untapped niche market, such as recent divorcees.

REDUCTION innovation includes: simplifying a business concept or focusing it more on a specific idea. Includes: specialization, removing layers and steps, fractioning, crowd- sourcing, subscriptions, localization, and efficiency.

IDEAS AND QUESTIONS TO ASK YOURSELF:
1. What parts of your business do consumers actually CARE about?
2. How many ways could you imagine a SIMPLER start-up?

Enjoy!
