💭 Free Business Idea (Up for grabs lol)

From talking to users, I’ve found a glaring problem in the content marketing space.

Problem: Promoting content to people that will find it helpful and valuable is difficult.

I know SEO is a way to do this. But here’s another solution I’ve thought of:

  1. Find online communities (subreddits, newsletters, websites, etc) that would find the content relevant and valuable.
  2. Post the content in a contextual, non-spammy way that provides value to the community

It requires lots of schlepping unless someone can think of a way to automate parts of the process with tech.

@matthenderson was the closest I’ve seen to having a solution to this with his Exclamation (https://www.hiscribble.com/exclamation) product.

There’s also a site I found recently called Missinglettr (https://missinglettr.com/) that has an automated way of doing this but they post to Twitter, Facebook, and etc and try to find the relevant people using hashtags which is probably effective as well. Never used it so idk

So yeah, that’s the free idea. I hope 🤞 someone finds this useful and runs with it. There seems to be a good deal of demand for it.

I’m scrapping my blog writing business, so I’m done with the space. But from the info I’ve gathered + my intuition, the person or team to solve this problem can bear great fruits 🍒🍎🍌🍉🍓✨
