Hey, I'm Chris Koerner - serial entrepreneur, business ideas addict, and your new ADHD business ideas best friend. I've started 75 businesses, with 10 of them being worth 7-8+ figures. I love startup ideas!
Want to make money, grow a business, or just start a side hustle? You're in the right spot.
This show covers:
- Real-world growth hacking tips
- Deep dives into cool business ideas and AI tools.
- Simple business advice for small business & startups
- Ways to make money with side hustles and home services
- How to invest in RV parks or mobile home parks
Sometimes I'll chat with another entrepreneur buddy, sometimes I'll go solo.
I've built lots of companies, run multiple businesses, and made tons of mistakes (so you don't have to).
If you love entrepreneurship, marketing, business ideas or agency life, this show is for you.
