🧠 3 Idea Thursday
Every week, I spend dozens of hours searching for the best business ideas.
Here are my favorites this week!
🧠 1: YC for Creators
Free business idea: Coaching platform for wannabe content creators to book sessions with allstar creators.
I love this for a few reasons.
- Don't need VC money to build it
- Allows established creators to monetize their knowledge & decrease ad dependence
- Makes the journey… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…— Alex Lieberman (@businessbarista)

This is a cool idea, but I’ll take it a step further.
Someone should create the YC for creators.
Creators are like less capital-intensive startups:
Growth is their primary objective early on
Connections to other creators drastically increase the odds of making it
Mentorship 10Xs progress
The cash-for-equity model won’t work - most of these businesses won’t become $100M+ empires.
But, you could set up a rev share model so there’s upside for both parties.
A quick word from our sponsor:
Stop Giving Your Money Away to Taxes
The secret is out at Nomad Capitalist Live 2024. It’s not about earning more, it’s about
what you keep. If the thought of handing over less to the taxman sounds good, you’ll want in on this. We’re sharing the playbook the wealthy use.
🧠 2: Mint 2.0
Free BIG AI startup idea:
Mint 2.0
I want an AI agent that can analyze my personal spending and coach me with some personality.
"Damn, Greg you spent $2k this month eating out. Relax"
Or you're driving by a Costco on your way to Whole Foods and it says:
"Greg, you probably… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

If you haven’t heard, Mint officially shut down a few weeks ago.
There are now millions of customers looking for a solution to fill the gap - from what I’ve read, there aren’t a lot of good options.
Mint Shutting Down + Consumer Facing AI = $$$
Timing is one of the most critical pieces in startup success. If you’ve ever wanted to build a consumer finance app, the time is now.
🧠 3: Luxury Porta Potties
These portable luxury bathrooms collect a lot of 💩 but also a lot of cash DAILY💰
They aren't like 5-star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ casino bathrooms, but…
You can rent them for anywhere between $700 and $1,500 a night. (And no, I'm not exaggerating)
If you finance them for a 240-month… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Had you told me that at the age of 30, I’d want to throw away my tech job to start a porta-potty business, I’d have called you crazy…
But here we are.
That’s all for this week. Please leave me feedback and let me know what you think!
