挑战
Somebody Build This (SBT) 的联合创始人劳伦·迈耶 (Lauren Meyer) 和保罗·米肯 (Paul Mickan) 发现了市场中的一个空白，即好的创意往往无法通过 iPhone 笔记或晚餐谈话来表达。另一方面，还有数以百万计的潜在企业家想要创业，但缺乏正确的想法。我们面临的挑战是创建一个可以连接这两个群体的平台，扩大人们的想法并将他们与潜在的企业家联系起来。这将促进产品构思并降低创业风险。联合创始人还想要一个能够提供投票系统等功能的平台，而他们之前使用的 Wix 和 SquareSpace 等 CMS 平台无法实现这一点。
关于客户
Somebody Build This 的主要客户是正在寻找创新商业理念的当前和有抱负的企业家。这些人可能有创业的愿望和资源，但缺乏独特的想法。他们可以通过获取“Thinker”社区发布的各种想法而从该平台中受益。该平台还为拥有创新想法但不打算围绕其开展业务的个人提供服务。这些“思想家”可以发布他们的想法，接收反馈，并看到他们的想法有可能被其他企业家转化为业务。因此，该平台具有双重目的，既满足创意产生者的需求，又满足潜在企业创始人的需求。
解决方案
SBT 是使用 Bubble 构建的，这是一种无代码工具，允许联合创始人创建他们想要的功能，而无需雇用工程师。该平台允许用户注册免费的“Thinker”帐户、发布想法、对现有想法进行投票/评论，并与 Thinker 社区互动。发布的想法范围从简单的产品建议到复杂的业务概念。该平台还鼓励企业家发布早期想法来验证他们的概念并获得反馈。未来，SBT 计划推出付费企业家功能，包括对发布的想法和主要研究功能的数据分析。目标是改变企业家寻找新商业创意和与早期目标客户互动的方式。
