Joseph Schumpeter (1883-1950) was an economist, one of the best intellectuals of the 20th century. He is best known for dynamic economic growth, the theory of creative destruction. Creative destruction is defined as "an ongoing product and process innovation mechanism, and a new production unit that replaces outdated products." But the key to Schumpeter's theory is the role of profit to stimulate innovation. In Schumpeter's words, "Profit is a benefit of making innovation a success, it is temporary, gradually disappears in the process of competition and adaptation." Therefore, creative destruction should produce imbalance. It will be "threatened and in defense".

Joseph Schumpeter and creative destruction The roots of JTBD can trace back to the appearance of Joseph Schumpeter and his creative destruction for at least 75 years. Schumpeter acknowledged that new technological innovations steal customers from existing products and ultimately replace them. For a while, horses and boats were the main means of transportation. After all, the train replaced the horse, but after that the car and the aircraft superseded those trains and ships. The client's work also incorporates another wonderful insight from Schumpeter, which has been almost overlooked. Schumpeter believes that competition should not be measured only on products of the same "type". He argues that competition can happen from anywhere. You might think that you are on the market alone or have superiority in the market, but unknown competitors may steal your customers. The only indication of your problem is to reduce sales.
