New series about the business journey I'm taking! Show notes by ChatGTP:I'm Wyatt, the host of the Business Creative Podcast, and I'm thrilled to share my journey through startup mode and the exciting honeymoon phase of entrepreneurship.I recently tried out a fascinating fancy water infused with hydrogen for combating oxidative stress, and it got me thinking about unique and innovative products.Starting with a humble $500 trailer, I successfully built a profitable food trailer business and eventually sold it for a considerable profit. I discovered the high demand for food trailers in the industry and the significant costs involved in launching a food business.I'm excited to introduce my innovative idea of owning trailers and renting them out to tenants on year-long leases, similar to commercial real estate. Trailers offer flexibility and cost-efficiency, making them advantageous for mobile businesses.Helping new business owners is my passion. I'm eager to provide consulting services, guidance, and support to aspiring food trailer owners, assisting them in obtaining health permits and licenses. I'm also contemplating different pricing options and the potential of bundling consulting services with trailer rentals to offer comprehensive support to my clients.Thanks, AI. We owe you!

Can you use it for organic reach? Yes and no. It's a static (picture) - focused app that mimics Instagram and Pinterest in many ways, and allows you to browse by interest and aesthetic. Right now it's heavy in makeup and fashion, but as apps grow they tend to broaden. It's for sure worth checking out, as Byte Dance is promoting it heavily and it may grow a lot.
