When supply creates demand



Do we always have to wait for someone to ask us a specific job: we offer because surely someone will buy it.

Imagine a group of, for example, 100 people living relatively isolated from the rest of mankind.

They are 50 men and 50 women, including children, adults and seniors. They live plant products that collect in the area and of the proteins obtained from milking animals and fishing.

One of them, John, produced a knife admired by several people. They would like to have it but only John knows manufacture.

The woman who lives with Peter told him that he would like to have that knife for cooking foods rich and abundant. Pedro talks to John and says he would like to buy the chuchillo. John puts a price and pays Peter, taking the knife to the woman who lives with him cook foods rich and abundant.

Now we have that John has in his possession something that does not need much: the money he received from Peter.

Soon you find that could be earmarked to buy some boots for your child. Go and talk to Susana and this shoe sells them.

recap:

Juan worked making a knife so beautiful and useful also liked other people besides himself.

This initial action resulted in John Shoemaker Susana had the job because John asked him to fabricate and sell him a pair of boots.

In other words: the proactive attitude, enterprising, industrious one (John) had caused someone working (Susana making the pair of boots).

This phenomenon is called Say's Law because it was who first said something strange, paradoxical: The supply creates demand.

In short, we can also offer before we ask.

Note: Original in Spanish (without translation by Google): Cuando la oferta genera una demanda.
