I’m joined by Chris Koerner who owns 8 RV parks + 7 companies, as we jam on 5 ideas he would start tomorrow:
1) Content Management for underserved platforms
• Instagram Reels can be cross-posted to Facebook• FB Reels get massive organic reach (100k+ views/hr)• Clickable links allowed in comments (unlike IG)• Opportunity: Build a tool/agency to automate this for creators
2) Programmatic SEO Franchise
• Use tools like Zapier, TagParrot, Whalesync to create 1000s of local landing pages• Target undersaturated home services niches• Sell as a "business in a box" for $10k + monthly fee• Cheaper than a franchise, potentially huge ROI
3) Viral-Content Finder
• Content often goes viral on one platform, unknown on others• AI could scan for viral content in your niche across platforms• Automatically repurpose & post to your accounts• Bonus: Add viral potential prediction feature
4) "Lifetime Warranty" DTC Brand
• Inspired by Shady Rays ($130M sunglasses brand)• Offer lifetime replacements, factor cost into pricing• Apply to other niches: flip flops, accessories, etc.• Key: High margins + emotional connection to product
5) Shopify Abandoned Cart Call Center
• Human outreach converts WAY better than automated messages• Target high AOV Shopify stores (100$+)• Offer no upfront cost, take % of recovered sales
