Hey, it's Niall 👋
Here's something I hear a lot:
I know AI is important… but I still haven't figured out how to actually make it useful yet.
Most people use AI like a search engine. Type a question, get an answer, move on.
No wonder they came away thinking that's it? 🤔
But that's maybe 10% of what it can do.
Without knowing the right tools and techniques, it just feels like a fancy Google.
There's a free 3-hour AI Masterclass that fixes exactly this – and it's genuinely good.
It’s focused on real-world AI use cases you can actually apply straight away.
And when you sign up, you'll also get 1,000+ ChatGPT prompts to help you work smarter and faster.
Check it out below 👇
Then stick around for today's business ideas.

RESALE
Accidental $10K/Year Hustle Flipping Facebook Marketplace Finds
A Reddit thread about flipping cheap secondhand stuff just blew up 🔥
It started with a $25 solid wood dresser someone grabbed because the seller said it was "too heavy to move."
I wiped it down, tightened a couple loose handles, took better photos in daylight, and listed it again mostly as an experiment.
Someone bought it two days later for $140.
The comments are packed with similar wins 👇
One person bought 26 original artworks at an estate sale for $160. Flipped individual pieces for $30 to $75 each.
Someone found a $5 hand-loomed blanket at a thrift store. Sold it on eBay for $240 🤑
Another commenter lives at an apartment complex and picks up stuff people leave by the trash...
I've sold golf clubs, weights, dog crates, etc by doing basically nothing aside from taking a few pics and posting. Easy money.
One Redditor says they pulled in just under $10K in a year from garage sales, estate sales, and Marketplace browsing in their free time 👀
As someone else puts it...
It changes the way you think about literally everything. You see value in most things and begin to realize how much great stuff that has value goes to the trash.
To take this to the next level, add AI to the mix: $145 in 1 Day Reselling Free Items On Facebook 🚀
AI-BUILT APPS
Copycat $4K/Month App Strategy From the Philippines
A developer in the Philippines shared a straightforward approach...
Find apps that are already making money.
Clone them with AI.
Make them slightly better.
Undercut on price.
I can run a business on a $5 subscription while some dev in San Francisco or London needs to charge $30 just to pay their rent.
That's how I kill the competition.
He's built two fitness apps so far – a GLP-1 medication tracker and a workout logger. The workout app drives 70% of his revenue.
Claims to be at $4K/month from the two combined 🤑
No Stripe proof was shared, so take the $4K claim with a pinch of salt.
But the strategy is clearly resonating – another commenter says they're doing the exact same thing and also at $4K/month 🧐
Our Philippines dev adds...
I used Claude Code to build these 10x faster than I ever could manually. Don't get stuck being a perfectionist.
Build fast, ship it, take the feedback, and improve.
Pick a category where the existing products are overpriced or outdated, and build something better – AI makes it possible in a weekend 🔥

EGG HUNT
How To Make $1000 This Weekend (Easter Side Hustle)
Some parents are too busy to hide Easter eggs. A 14-year-old saw a business in that…
Last year I started a small business where I hide Easter eggs filled with chocolate in people's yards for their kids. I ended up doing around 11 houses and made about $350–400.
The packages: 25 eggs for $20, up to 100 eggs for $65. Total cost per filled egg – about $0.21.
Reddit's verdict? Way undercharging 👇
Your eggs cost about 21 cents each. That does not mean you price based on 21 cents.
Parents are paying for:
Not going to the store
Not stuffing eggs
Not hiding them at 10pm
Seeing their kids excited
That is value.
Another commenter adds…
The eggers around me charge a minimum of $50 for 25 eggs and more for premium candy, glitter, etc.
"Egg My Yard" is a whole thing now – Girl Scout troops, church groups, and solo operators run versions across the US 👀
One established operator charges $30–85 per package.
This kid only used two marketing channels – a parent's Facebook page and a local community group. Two channels, 11 houses.
Easter is April 5. Hide eggs in 20 yards at $50+ each, and you've got yourself $1,000+ for a few evenings' work 🤑
