Joining me is Sam Parr. I’ve watched him build The Hustle over the years, which started out as an email newsletter with a few thousand subscribers.

And it just became massively successful because he targeted an audience of entrepreneurs.

But at some point last year, he said, “We need to add a new element to our business.” And he came out with a subscription service called Trends, which picks up on trends that lead to new products that could lead to new businesses.

I want to find out how he built up his business, how much revenue it’s generating, and how the whole thing started with a basic email newsletter.

Sam Parr is the founder of The Hustle and Trends.co, which picks up on trends that lead to new products that lead to new businesses.
