I just dropped 22 minutes on the exact framework I use to spot automation opportunities that make money.
Key takeaway: Not all problems are worth solving. Some = $100. Some = $5000.
Here's how I tell the difference:
**The 4-Step Validation:**
1️⃣ **Is it REAL?**
Ask 5 people: "Do you have this problem?" If 3+ say yes → it's real.
2️⃣ **Is it URGENT?**
"Would you pay $500/month to solve this?" If they hesitate → not urgent enough.
3️⃣ **Is it SOLVABLE?**
Can automation handle 70%? If yes → build it. If it needs humans constantly → skip it.
4️⃣ **Is it REPEATING?**
Weekly = worth it. Daily = DEFINITELY worth it. Once a quarter = don't bother.

**Real example:**
Client: "We spend 4 hours/day answering intake emails"
That's 20 hrs/week = $4000/month value
I charged $800/month
ROI in 1 week ✅
This became Floxo.

**What to do RIGHT NOW:**
1. Watch the video (link below)
2. Pick 1 industry you know
3. Ask 5 people in that industry ONE question: "What's annoying you about [process]?"
4. Write down the top 3 answers
5. Share in comments
