Key Takeaways
Identify 'One-Chart Businesses' by spotting data trends moving from a minority to a majority behavior, which provides a clear roadmap for where future market demand will consolidate.
Master the 'Micro-Hustle' by applying human psychology to existing roles—such as a waiter framing a dessert order as a collective group decision—to increase transaction value.
Target fragmented service industries like hair extensions or barber shops where specialized logistics software and community-building can turn a 'boring' business into a multi-million dollar company.
