How did Netflix get started? Frustration. Frustration and anger are at the core of business model innovation and entrepreneurship.
Fortune talks to Netflix founder and CEO Reed Hastings about the birth of Netflix. It started when he had to pay a $40 late fee for failing to return a video. Annoying and frustrating, right?
What distinguishes entrepreneurs from everyone else is that while most people just complain, entrepreneurs channel their frustration into creating opportunity and potential.
