Join me, Nik (https://x.com/CoFoundersNik), and my business partner Chris Koerner (https://x.com/mhp_guy) in another brainstorming session packed with unconventional business ideas!

We dive into how to spot emerging trends and combine them for unique opportunities, even if it sounds a little crazy at first, like the sourdough and microplastics concept. We also explore overlooked distribution channels, particularly the United States Postal Service, and how its unique economics can be leveraged for marketing.

Plus, we tackle some bigger questions about government efficiency and the future of data collection with AI.


Questions This Episode Answers:
How can combining two mega-trends create a viable business idea?
What's a surprising marketing channel that is currently being heavily subsidized?
What's a potentially more effective (though harder) way to find off-market real estate deals?
Why might the government not be capitalizing on its existing distribution networks for revenue generation?
Could AI revolutionize the survey industry and create new income opportunities for individuals?


Enjoy the conversation!
