Hey, it's Niall 👋
Weird question: what’s your favorite company you’ve never bought from?
Mine’s Liquid Death, the canned-water brand that somehow hit a $1 billion valuation in only five years 💰
I mean, think about it: canned water?!
How is that a good business idea? 😱
But Liquid Death proved that pretty much any product can pop if you nail the marketing.
Some of their clever marketing stunts…
Branded the product like a death-metal band to stand out (slogan: Murder Your Thirst).
Launched with an infamous waterboarding video (5M+ views).
Released a 10 song album composed of hate comments towards the brand.
And, my personal favorite: instead of buying a Super Bowl ad for $5M+, they got a ton of publicity by doing this…

AI
Charging $1000's Per Month Per Client For This AI Service
A recent video from Authority Hacker 👀
The service 👇
B2B cold email outreach as a way to generate sales for a client.
This is a wildly popular service which a lot of people are offering and a lot of people are paying for right now
They show one company charging between $2000 and $7200 per month for one campaign 🤑
Why is this so powerful right now?
AI lets you personalize every message you send so it feels to the recipient (if you do it correctly) that they're getting a personal email… versus all the templated crap that everyone gets bombarded with every day.
So AI gives you the opportunity to stand out from everyone else who's doing this.
They go on to break down exactly how to build and scale this service, based on their experience doing it for a client 😎
BREAKING CARDS
Father & Son Earning $50K/Month Within a Year Doing This
📝 From a recent article…
When Madden Forrest, 12, and his dad, Steven Forrest, 35, started breaking cards — purchasing and opening the sealed products to reveal their contents — it was just for fun. Pokémon cards were first, followed by football. Then Madden watched TikTok creators who livestreamed the process and sold cards to interested buyers.
Madden asked his dad if they could try it themselves, and in October of 2024, the side hustle was born.
Amazingly, they've already profited $70,000 in 2025 doing this, and reported $49,000 revenue in May (~39% profit margin) 💰
Which is even more surprising given that TikTok appears to be their main channel – with Steven presenting all the videos – and they only have ~7.5K followers on there 🤯
And it's not like this was an original idea…
We didn't know what we were doing. We saw other people doing it.

REMOTE NOTARY
$1000\Month Side Hustle From Your Kitchen Table
📝 Mike R writes…
Of all the side hustles you could ink into your calendar, becoming a Remote Online Notary (RON) might be one of the most underrated. It's low-cost, high-trust, and surprisingly flexible — as long as you're okay learning a little legal lingo and don’t mind turning your webcam into a digital witness stand.
I chatted with u/Weary_Bird_1773 on Reddit, how a first-time notary got up and running for about $500 and made just under $1,000 in their first month — working about 40 hours a month. That included remote notarizations, mobile appointments, and loan signings.
It’s not flashy. It’s not passive. But it’s steady, real, and you get to help people in major life moments — wills, closings, medical directives — all from your kitchen table…
if you ever wanted a business that literally pays you to stay at home and stay on top of paperwork?
This might just be your stamp of destiny.
Mike goes on to explain how to find your first clients and scale to $5000/month 🤑

AI
Google's 601 AI Use Cases = Business Idea Gold Mine
Google published this list a few weeks ago 👇
Interesting to see what the big boys are doing, many opportunities to do similar on a smaller scale or for a different niche 🧐
For example…
Contraktor developed a project to analyze contracts with AI. As a result, the company achieved a reduction of up to 75% in the time taken to analyze and review a contract, with the possibility of both reading and extracting relevant data from the documents.
How about vibe coding a “contract summary” service for local freelancers or small landlords 💡
Clients upload their agreement (e.g. lease, NDA, service contract), you run it through an LLM fine-tuned for legal language, then deliver a one-page summary of the key dates, obligations, and risks.
You could even do this manually at first to test demand 😎

LOCAL MARKETING AGENCY
$57,000 Per Month With His Simple Niche Agency
A recent interview on YouTube 👇
Tom runs PlumbElec, an online marketing agency for plumbers and electricians in Australia 🇦🇺
Tom has a plumbing background, picked up various online marketing skills over the years, started helping out other businesses via Upwork.
Now…
We currently have 23 clients, at around $57,000 a month in recurring revenue…
It's mainly Tom and his girlfriend running the business with contractors from the Philippines 🇵🇭
Tom works 5-6 hours/day, 3-5 days/week, mainly splitting time between Spain and Bali.
I love this business model because it's nothing fancy, not that hard to replicate with patience and consistency…
Learn some marketing skills (basic stuff business owners don't have time to learn)
Pick a niche (ideally one you have some connection to)
Start helping businesses in that niche with their marketing
Get good results
Leverage those results to land paying clients
Keep going 💪
