Small Ideas, Big Breakthroughs, and Bacon Cheeseburgers

Don The Idea Guy March 20, 2013

bacon-cheeseburgerNot every idea needs to be HUGE.

Some of the best ideas start out small.

Taking small steps forward frequently leads to big breakthroughs.

Spend a little time each day thinking of one or two micro-improvements you can take to make your job a little better, your products a little more innovative, or to streamline a procedure and make it go just a little faster.

Just one little idea multiplied a thousand times can result in the cumulative success of thousands (if not millions) of dollars in additional profit, customer goodwill, and increased sales.

You doubt me?

Someone had to be the first person to put cheese on a burger.
That’s just one small improvement that led to millions of dollars in additional annual revenue in the food industry.

And then someone made another small improvement and added BACON.

’nuff said!

Back from the grave!

Oh, hey. ‘sup? Yeesh. I guess the title of that last blog post turned out to be a little more prophetic than I originally intended! The prior article published on December 31, 2020 was simply meant to signify the last in a series of daily posts that I published through the entire year of 2020 […]

Don’t Lose Your Head

There are people who drive you absolutely bonkers (I feel your pain), and make you lose your cool at work. They don’t “do the work” and expect other people to cover for them, they’re constantly running their mouths all day instead of actually doing their work, they play their music through speakers instead of ear […]
