I was on the phone with somebody the other day, talking about the market in which our company operates. The person with whom I was talking asked if the market were crowded, and my response was that there is curently far more opportunity in the space than there are companies. And with that intro, I offer a number of other business opportunities that are out there for the taking. I've also gone to the trouble of naming your new company for you. Let's get started:
1. FreeChicken.com
Food and affiliate marketing arbitrage! If you sign up for an mbna credit card through freechicken.com, we will send you a free chicken! MBNA pays us a 40 dollar affiliate fee, and we ship one chicken, the rest is profit! Also can create freeBurger.com, FreeSalad.com. What's the size of the market, you ask? who doesn't want free chicken, i say!
2. VeriMe
Human Identity Authority. Here's how it works. I create an account with VeriMe. They do an eye scan, voice scan, finger print scan. They have all my credit and bank information and personal identity data. They then assign a trusted human authority to walk around with me and prove i'm really who i say i am. Example:
me: i'd like to check in for my flight
airline agent: can i see some id?
me: I don't have any, but i'm dick costolo, you can ask him
airline agent: verime agent 4235, is this really dick costolo that you're accompaning?
verime agent: totally
airline agent: enjoy your flight mr. costolo
3. Nabiscar.
Cookies shaped like cars on the racing circuit.
4. Rebicycle
Refurbish and sell recycled bicycles
6. Uthink.
It's well documented that people don't make up their minds about political debates until they see what the news media says about who won/lost. Uthink takes this to its logical conclusion. Don't know if you think stem-cell research is right or wrong? Go to uthink.com, type in your demographic information and answer a few personal questions. Now, for $4.99, ask Uthink about anything for which you'd like to have a firm opinion and Uthink will tell you what you think! Stop "I thinking" and start "U thinking!"
