Description: I sat down again with Sam Thompson (https://x.com/ImSamThompson), a regular on the podcast, to keep riffing on some great business ideas. In this second part, we cover everything from a tree-trimming service with a clever insurance-style add-on to a home concierge service for busy families, and even a placebo-based product line that plays on the power of perception.We also talk about using AI for stuff like recipe generation, automating the boring parts of running a business, and spotting ways to cash in on trending social media content. Missed part one?
