How to Get Rich Doing Boring Things | Nick Huber

Listen Later

Entrepreneurship doesn’t have to be sexy.

In today’s episode, Nick Huber, author of The Sweaty Startup, talks about how to get rich doing boring things.

Instead of building the next AI tool, how about a painting business? Or landscaping? Or HVAC? Or one of the hundreds of services that everyday people need?

Topics covered include:

  • Finding your next business idea
  • Why Shark Tank is a lie
  • The easiest way to tell if an idea will work
  • Getting your first customers
  • When to “legitimize” your business
  • Marketing strategies that actually work
  • When to start scaling and branching out

    • and more!

    This episode covers a lot, so get ready to take some notes.
