Ah... The idea you can come with when you walk...
I was walking a bit earlier in the beautiful cold Canadian winter when I remembered a question from Peter Thiel.
"How can you achieve your 10-year plan in the next 6 months?"
Somehow, right after that, I thought about the 4h workweek. And through a series of thoughts as random as it can get, one question popped into my mind:
..."Can you build a business and make money by spending 5 hours max a week?"
And I gave it some thoughts. It is probably not possible, but if you were to do that, and not spend a dime, what would you do?
And I gave it some more thoughts to arrive to:
1. start with social media (for this case Insta)
2. pick a product that is visually appealing and that people will be compelled to like/share. Something with a feel-good effect.
3. Grow a following on Insta
4. Presell the product when the followers' count is high enough
5. reinvest in the business
I will document how it goes here and update it sporadically. I will track 3 things:
1. Follower counts
2. Money spent
3. Money made
