1. Business idea of the Week: Build a Meme Template Newsletter
I donāt have kids.
But when I do, I know Iāll need to make a lot of changes to my house.
Gates at the stairs, softening corners, plugging up outlets, etc.
Thereās a lot of stuff to do to make a house āsafeā for kids, and I probably donāt even know a fraction of it.
So, since most people arenāt experts at this, what if you could just hire one?
The idea: A home baby proofing service.
This service is ideal for any parents who have small children or are expecting a child.
It will come into their home and ābaby proofā it to make sure it is safe for a little one.
But in order to offer this service, you need to become an expert. Kids lives are at risk here, so when it comes to baby proofing, you need to know it all.
Things like cleaning products locked up, electrical outlets and cords hidden, etc.
Anyhting that might not be obvious to someone else, but a āprofessionalā would know.
Getting Started
Training and Certification: While not always required, obtaining a certification in childproofing can give you credibility. Organizations such as the Association for Child Safety offer certifications for childproofing.
Get Your First Client: Offer your services for free to friends or family members with small children or someone expecting a child. Document your work with before-and-after photos and ask for a testimonial. Your first 1-3 projects will be extremely important to build reviews and case studies off of.
And since parents talk to other parents, theyāll also be a great source of referrals.
Build your website: Build a simple website and a Google My Business profile to start ranking in your local SEO results. This is a low competition service so you should be able to rank quickly.
Local Facebook Groups: New parents love Facebook. Utilize local Facebook groups to find leads and let people know about your service.
The Money $$$: Kids are expensive, and this can be a premium service. You can charge by the size of the house, the number of tasks, or the amount of hours it takes you.
The baby market in the US was $12.6 Billion in 2022.
Get yourself a piece of it.

3. Business ideas from Twitter
I spent an hour scrolling Twitter trying to find business ideas.
Hereās a few I found. š
This is more of a feature than a business, but I love the pain point here.
Finding a time that works for multiple people is a huge pain.
Someone needs to solve this problem once and for all.
I think some of this is a bit far fetched, however there is a big trend of people looking for ārealā food.
This includes real dairy, honey, etc. All things un-processed.
A food place that uses only real dairy and no seed oils would hit home with a specific type of crowd.
Most likely would need to be in a progressive place like Austin TX.

Iāve seen an unreal amount of tweets that start with āmy uber driverā¦ā or ājust met an uber driver thatā¦ā.
Itās only right that these drivers get compensated for the amount of content theyāve genertated.
See you next Sunday.
