3 Ways To Make Money In Your Town Nobody Talks About — Ep. 29
Local business ideas and side hustles are everywhere, but most people overlook the easiest opportunities right in their own town or city. Ben and Jon walk through three local business ideas that can generate real revenue without experience, a big budget, or anything complicated. They dive into how a local TV ad network works, where you place screens in bars, waiting rooms, and small businesses, then sell ad space to local companies. They also cover building a local email newsletter that aggregates everything happening in your town and monetizes through ads. Finally, they get into a simple service business helping restaurants fix bad photos that are costing them customers, and how that can turn into a higher value marketing offer. Topics covered: • local TV ad network business model • how to sell ads to local businesses • building and monetizing a local newsletter • simple service businesses you can start quickly • fixing restaurant photos for profit • how to spot overlooked local opportunities These are not complicated online businesses. They are simple ideas hiding in plain sight that most people ignore because they are not flashy or new. Business is simple. People are lazy. https://lowbarpod.com/ Join the private Low Bar Pod community and hang out with BK and Jon plus all of our other awesome members! — https://low-bar-pod.circle.so/checkout/membership Sponsor: Sleep like you’re dead (in a good way).
