Show notes

HoldCo Bros are back! In this episode, Nik and I are discussing "IGenius," a segment where we analyze business ideas found on Instagram, focusing on how to turn viral trends into real-world opportunities. We brainstormed various ideas, including experiential businesses, such as a coffee shop with a sandbox, a kids' play area with a high-end parent area, and a live fish vending machine.


We also explored mobile businesses like a mobile bookstore, and the importance of being "indistractable" in the physical world. Additionally, we considered unique product businesses such as a wart removal kit, and the business potential of the microplastics trend. We also discussed frameworks for creating businesses that capture attention, and ways to make it harder for parents to say no to their kids when making purchases.
