Side Hustle Hero 159: Popcorn Profits: Making a Living in Just One Day a Week
Welcome to a rebroadcast of a popular episode featuring Jonathan Schuit, who makes a comfortable living selling popcorn… just one day a week.
But this episode isn't just about popcorn - it's about smart business thinking, small changes that lead to big wins, and spotting opportunities hiding in plain sight.
Whether you're already running a side hustle or just looking for one that works, Jonathan shares insights you can apply to almost any business.
You'll discover,
- How Jonathan turned a teenage side gig into a high-profit business
- The small pricing change that boosted revenue by 50% overnight
- Why fewer options can lead to more sales
- The psychology behind lineups, product pricing, and buyer behavior
- What most farmers' market vendors get wrong
- Why simple, low-cost businesses (like snow cones!) can outperform "cooler" jobs
- The real-life numbers behind a one-day-a-week business model
Stick around after the main interview for a bonus convo on how a snow cone stand could pull in $20K in five days… ..and the margins? Seriously impressive.
