Episode notes
Monetize Niche Passion With Products + Community
- Launch niche physical products and promote with targeted ads to move units quickly.
- Add a paid community or recurring offer to extract more lifetime value from a passionate audience.
Micro-SaaS Needs Constant Work
- Micro-SaaS has low barriers but also low longevity without continuous improvement.
- Passive 'set-and-forget' expectations are unrealistic because competition demands ongoing work.
Pick Digital Scale Or Local Cashflow
- Choose between digital (scale) and local physical services (fast cash) based on your skills and goals.
- If you want quick profit, sell high-ticket local services instead of low-dollar subscriptions that require large CAC.
