Season 2: Episode 93: The Business of Play: How Nic Breedlove Turned an Overlooked Industry Into Opportunity

Most people are chasing crowded markets, trendy ideas, and “sexy” businesses and getting nowhere. Then there’s Nic Breedlove. Nic is the CEO of NVB Playgrounds, a company that’s quietly building high-quality, community-focused play spaces across the country and turning a niche most people overlook into a real business opportunity.  In this episode, we dig into what it actually looks like to build something from scratch in an industry you didn’t come from, without a roadmap, and without anyone handing you the playbook. We talk about scaling in a low-margin business, standing out in a space most people ignore, and why some of the best opportunities aren’t the ones everyone’s talking about. Nic also shares the behind-the-scenes realities- the challenges, pivots, and moments where things went sideways…but ended up leading to growth.   What you’ll learn: How to build a business with zero background or blueprint  Why “boring” industries can be the most profitable  How to scale in a low-margin space without burning out  The role of creativity, design, and innovation in standing out  Why resilience matters more than strategy early on    If you’re serious about creating income streams, this episode will challenge you to stop chasing trends and start looking where nobody else is.   Find Nic Breedlove at https://www.playgroundequipment.com/  Biography of Play: A CEO’s Perspective of Running through Seasons of Disruption in an Unfamiliar Industry of Commercial Playground Equipment- https://amzn.to/4e5tmJZ    --- Click here to change your life- http://eepurl.com/gy5T3T   Hit me up for a one-on-one brainstorming session- https://militaryimagesproject.com/products/brainstorming-session-1-hour    Check out my Linktree for different ways to rock your world! https://linktr.ee/ruggeddad    Check out the sweet Hyper X mic I’m using. https://amzn.to/41AF4px    Check out my best-selling books: Rapid Skill Development 101- https://amzn.to/3J0oDJ0 Streams of Income with Ryan Reger- https://amzn.to/3SDhDHg Strangest Secret Challenge- https://amzn.to/3xiJmVO This page contains affiliate links.
