eBiz Insider Business Ideas Newsletter
Hey, it's Niall 👋
You usually get this newsletter every Tuesday and Friday.
But, given the time of year, I'll be skipping the next two Tuesdays.
The schedule…
❌ Tuesday, Dec 24 = no newsletter
✅ Friday, Dec 27 = newsletter
❌ Tuesday, Dec 31 = no newsletter
✅ Friday, Jan 3 = newsletter
After that, we'll be back to every Tuesday and Friday as usual.
Alright, let's get stuck into some fresh business ideas.

SUBSCRIPTION BOX
Subscription Box For Cats = $30,000 Per Month
😻 Alex Brittingham tweets…
CatBox has crossed $30k in MRR! 🚀
CatBox is a subscription box for cats.
Each delivery contains toys and treats.
Plus the box itself…
An added bonus for your fur baby to sit in. If I fits, I sits!
The founders – Alex and his partner Dani – look quite young, perhaps still in their 20's.
And Alex is bullish on the potential of the business…
CatBox is gonna be a 7 figure brand next year
Mark my words 🫡
I'm thinking this business model could work for other pets.
Could also be worth trying in other countries, since CatBox is only available in the USA 🇺🇸
More generally, think about a subscription box service you wish existed.
How about creating it yourself? 🤔

How to launch an email course (step by step)
In this in comprehensive guide, Will Steiner (creator of Master the Email-Based Course) partnered with beehiiv to share everything he knows about email courses. It’s a master class in selling more online–by teaching through email.
Over 1,000 students have taken his course (but he’s sharing the best way to get started here).
SOFTWARE CONSULTING
Earning $10K Per Week as a Consultant
📝 A recent post on Reddit…
Officially had first $10k week
I have been hovering around $20k a month for the past 5 months and right now a lot of things in the biz are starting to come together all at once.
I’m shooting for my first $30k month in December…
💬 Then in the comments…
I run a small NetSuite consulting company
NetSuite is a big complicated enterprise software.
OP probably worked in a company that used it, then became a consultant, helping companies make the most of the software.
Goes to show that you can make a lot of money if you know your way around software like this 🤑
Other examples…
AWS
HubSpot
Jira
Salesforce
SAP
Lots of enterprise software have free training and certification programs (eg. HubSpot Academy).
Pick one you already have an interest in, get trained and certified, then hang your shingle 💪
SELLING TEMPLATES
$100,000+ From His Template Business in 2 Years
Michael Andreuzza tweets…
✺ Lexington has smashed past six figures in sales!
He's referring to Lexington Themes…
Premium multipage themes and UI Kits…
Beautifully crafted with Astro.js, and Tailwind CSS — Simple & easy to customise.
Looks like Michael launched that 2 years ago 🚀
Nothing fancy here, just doing the work and tweeting about it every day.
Consistently and persistently.
I've shared before how people are making good money making templates for platform like Framer and Squarespace 👇
Michael's templates aren't built on any particular platform, so they can be used anywhere.
These kinds of templates are much easier to build nowadays with the help of AI 🤖
Michael apparently uses Copilot.
You could try building something with that yourself. There is a free version.

VISA PROCESSING
Try This $780,000 Business in Another Country
🔥 #19 on the latest Gaps Income Report…
StampMyVisa.com raised a Pre-Series A funding round of around $780,000 (converted from rupees) in November.
The business allows any travel agent in India to effortlessly handle the visa requirements of their customers who wish to travel to countries like Malaysia, South Africa, Singapore and beyond.
Essentially, they take a tedious job and enable companies to easily outsource it to them.
To date they’ve helped process over 5 million visas with a 98.5% success rate.
… I could totally see people modelling this concept around the world.
How about trying this elsewhere? 🤔
More broadly, what businesses have you seen work well in one place that you could emulate in another?
MICRO INFLUENCERS
Sponsored a Micro-Influencer, Got a 20x Return
Cesar Gil is the owner of Symphony Advertising, a digital marketing agency 😎
He shares on Reddit…
Last Month, I sponsored a Micro-Influencer for $120. All this person did during their post was say "If you need Web Design or Markeitng Services, contact Symphony Advertising".
Earlier this week, I got a call from this company that is looking for someone local to Houston, that can speak spanish, and also knows about marketing. They were interested in our $2,500/month package.
Had the consult, did an audit, and today they agreed to move forward. I have to say, $120 for $2,500 is a heck of a return lol.
A few ideas off the back of this 👇
Sponsor micro-influencers to promote your own business.
Manage micro-influencer sponsorships for your clients.
Help micro-influencers find more sponsorship opportunities.
Build a database of vetted micro-influencers and sell access to it.
