How to Cash in from Other Companies’ Email Lists (HoldCo Bros) Ep. #86

HoldCo Bros are back! Nik and I talk about three topics today. First, an update on our perfume vending machine business, now called Side Vending, as we expand to new vending machine concepts. It’s been a wild journey, and we’ve got some crazy stories to share.Then, we break down the recent shutdown of a company called The Pro’s Closet and discuss how you can monetize other companies’ email lists - 300,000 email addresses that are going to waste! Finally, we talk about Negotiations as a Service, or as I like to put it, “Only eat when you eat.”Stay tuned for Part 2 next week, where we’ll talk about GPT for Google Sheet and all the many ways you can use AI inside Excel or Google Sheets, a creative dating idea, and a business called Water Finds that we think you’ll find interesting.
