How do fish swimming upstream in the spring get through a lock? By ringing the doorbell, of course! This may sound like a kids' riddle, but it was actually a real-life problem for the small Dutch town of Utrecht. Each spring, fish swim upstream to spawn and need to pass through the Weerdsluis lock. The problem was that the lock was rarely ever open in the spring, and fish that were stuck waiting for it to open were a prime target for predators. The solution? An underwater camera and a live stream (literally - haha) video. You can watch the live stream online, and if you see a fish, you can press the doorbell button to alert the lock operator to open the lock and let the fish through. Genius! Had I been in their shoes, I don't know that I ever would've thought of a fish doorbell. And I love that the solution not only solved the problem, but it also built community - people from around the world have watched the live stream for a chance to ring the bell and help the fish. What's the "fish stuck at the lock" problem that you're facing? How could you look at it from a different angle - or even involve others - to get to a creative solution? PS - I'll leave a link to the fish doorbell in the comments #marketingoperations #marketing #problemsolving #designthinking
