My retirement plan:

1. Find niche ideas to build from platforms like Reddit, YouTube
2. Build communities of people
3. Create beautiful products with no-code/AI
If you can do 1, you’ll do well
If you can do 2, you’ll do really well
If you can do all 3, you’ll build a empire -
My business plan is listen to what people want on Reddit, Facebook groups, TikTok and build it for them

My hiring strategy is don't hire people in NYC
— GREG ISENBERG (@gregisenberg) June 9, 2023
When I see a resume from someone from NYC (or insert expensive city), I think I need to raise my prices
I'd rather hire someone in Montreal
Average income in NYC: $107k
Average income in Montreal: $60k

Why i love this community-based strategy so much:
— GREG ISENBERG (@gregisenberg) June 9, 2023
There are tons of bad startup ideas
Ideas from subreddits etc are validated
People are literally telling you what they want
It's a beautiful thing. -
