In this episode, @NikonomicsPodcast and I talk about a dozen business ideas that are already working across the US, from weddings-as-a-service to goat-powered wildfire prevention. I share the story of a guy doing $3M a year setting up beach weddings with no venue, and we dig into iconic tourist traps like the Big Texan Steak Ranch and Lambert’s Café that sell millions in merch but still aren’t online. We talk about the resale arbitrage behind Texas Snacks, my own Buc-ee’s-based business, and what I’d do differently today. Then we explore experiential businesses like DriveATank.com, why founder-led Facebook ads still outperform agencies, and how to find overlooked physical products or services tied to a specific region. Toward the end, I share a big personal announcement: I’m planning to start 50 businesses in 50 states in 50 days with my family and give them away. Kamal gave me the idea and it got picked up in a Ryan Trahan video, so we’re going all in.
