Endurance Product Concept

The idea of creating a simple endurance product with just two natural ingredients is discussed extensively. One proposed product is a combination of raw honey and sea salt, designed to provide quick energy and enhance blood flow during workouts. This product aims to address the market's growing interest in natural alternatives to synthetic pre-workout supplements, emphasizing transparency in its ingredients. By repackaging something as basic as honey into convenient, portable packets, the concept taps into the need for simplicity and effectiveness in athletic nutrition.

In this second part of our conversation, we talk about creating a health product for athletes with only two ingredients and how to make it scalable. We also discuss how to convert cheap construction permit data into high-ticket lead sales, as well as a unique concept for a gym for personal trainers, giving them more autonomy over their clients.

We also talk about the importance of packaging and framing ideas to increase their value, and how to create and sell market research reports for businesses.
