We&amp;#x27;ve quickly learned that the best way to increase sales is to have a large variety of designs rather than a smaller selection of high-quality designs. She can make $30 selling one high-quality replica of a historic landmark that took her weeks of painstaking modeling time, but she has to find the one person who wants that print. Alternatively, she can mass-produce refrigerator magnets of birds, flowers, and animals that take just a few hours of modeling time and output them in such a variety that she can easily sell dozens in a day at $5 each.&lt;p&gt;It&amp;#x27;s what makes Amazon so profitable and AliBaba such a threat. It&amp;#x27;s the &amp;quot;longtail&amp;quot; business model, but for ideas. Like Linus Pauling said, &amp;quot;The best way to have a good idea is to have a lot of ideas.&amp;quot;</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Stop trying to ‘be original’ and be prolific instead (2016)</title><url>http://prolifiko.com/prolific/</url></story>
