I Helped Them Stop Wasting Money on the Wrong Audience⏐Ep. #247
Check out my newsletter at https://TKOPOD.com and join my new community at https://TKOwners.com━HoldCo Bros are back! In this episode, Nik and I dig into a super interesting business idea — Porta Courts, a portable pickleball court company started by Nik’s brother-in-law. We break down how he can turn it into a real business, from testing demand with PickFu surveys to running Facebook ads the right way.We go deep into how to identify the right target audience — from hardcore pickleball players and luxury homeowners to schools, hotels, and local entrepreneurs who could rent these courts out like bounce houses. I share a step-by-step framework for setting up ad campaigns, building high-trust landing pages, and using data to figure out what messaging actually converts.We also talk about how this could evolve into a local franchise-style model and why every new product launch should start with real validation before spending a dollar on marketing.Try PickFu and get 50% off your first poll with code TKOPOD at https://www.pickfu.com/#_r_tkopodEnjoy! ---Watch this on YouTube instead here: tkopod.co/p-ytAsk me a question on or off the show here: http://tkopod.co/p-askLearn more about me: http://tkopod.co/p-cjkLearn about my company: http://tkopod.co/p-cofFollow me on Twitter here: http://tkopod.co/p-xFree weekly business ideas newsletter: http://tkopod.co/p-nlShare this podcast: http://tkopod.co/p-allScrape small business data: http://tkopod.co/p-os---

We Tried Building a Money-Making App in Under an Hour (No-Code)⏐Ep. #246
Check out my newsletter at https://TKOPOD.com and join my new community at https://TKOwners.com━I sat down with Brandon Doyle (https://x.com/_BrandonDoyle_) again, and this time we tried to build a money-making app in under an hour using Emergent, a new vibe coding tool. We let a random word generator decide our idea, landed on a lawn care quote generator, and then raced to see who could build the better version faster. I focused on the backend logic and real-time pricing, while Brandon went all in on clean design and live deployment. We ended up building two working web apps for about $10 each, both ready to launch instantly. We compared prompts, strategies, and credits used, and talked about how simple these AI tools make it to build real businesses fast.You can try the apps we built here:Brandon’s app: https://mowmaster-6.emergent.hostChris’s app: https://mowbid.emergent.hostEnjoy! ---Watch this on YouTube instead here: tkopod.co/p-ytAsk me a question on or off the show here: http://tkopod.co/p-askLearn more about me: http://tkopod.co/p-cjkLearn about my company: http://tkopod.co/p-cofFollow me on Twitter here: http://tkopod.co/p-xFree weekly business ideas newsletter: http://tkopod.co/p-nlShare this podcast: http://tkopod.co/p-allScrape small business data: http://tkopod.co/p-os---

We Turned Random Words Into $20K/Month Businesses Ideas⏐Ep. #244
Check out my newsletter at https://TKOPOD.com and join my new community at https://TKOwners.com━I sat down with Sam Thompson (https://x.com/ImSamThompson) again, and this time we tried something completely different. We used a random word generator to come up with totally random words and then challenged ourselves to turn each one into a real business idea that could make $20K a month. What started as a fun experiment turned into one of the most creative brainstorming sessions I’ve ever done.We came up with ideas like an Office-themed chess set, a blue-collar Stoicism community, and even a nightclub marketing agency called Full Lounge. We debated which ideas would actually work, which ones could scale, and how fast each could become profitable. Sam also shared why most people overcomplicate online businesses when simple local plays like garage cleanouts can hit $20K a month with just one person running them.We wrapped up talking about how important it is to start small, stay consistent, and focus on momentum instead of waiting for permission or the “perfect” idea.Enjoy! ---Watch this on YouTube instead here: tkopod.co/p-ytAsk me a question on or off the show here: http://tkopod.co/p-askLearn more about me: http://tkopod.co/p-cjkLearn about my company: http://tkopod.co/p-cofFollow me on Twitter here: http://tkopod.co/p-xFree weekly business ideas newsletter: http://tkopod.co/p-nlShare this podcast: http://tkopod.co/p-allScrape small business data: http://tkopod.co/p-os---
