The Legal Way to Sell Fake Pills? Placebo Business & More⏐Ep. #111
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
I sat down again with Sam Thompson (https://x.com/ImSamThompson), a regular on the podcast, to keep riffing on some great business ideas. In this second part, we cover everything from a tree-trimming service with a clever insurance-style add-on to a home concierge service for busy families, and even a placebo-based product line that plays on the power of perception.
We also talk about using AI for stuff like recipe generation, automating the boring parts of running a business, and spotting ways to cash in on trending social media content.
Missed part one? Check out Ep. #108
