We get into why this plugs directly into everyday behavior, how repeat usage turns fuel into predictable revenue, and which customers really make the model work. Korey shares how he started this on the side, how the business compounds once people build the habit, and where it’s headed next. He’s now in his third year and on pace to do over $1 million this year, which makes this a great example of a straightforward business executed well.You can check out Juiced Fuel at https://juicedfuel.com and follow them on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/juicedfuel.Enjoy! ---Watch this on YouTube instead here: tkopod.co/p-ytAsk me a question on or off the show here: http://tkopod.co/p-askLearn more about me: http://tkopod.co/p-cjkLearn about my company: http://tkopod.co/p-cofFollow me on Twitter here: http://tkopod.co/p-xFree weekly business ideas newsletter: http://tkopod.co/p-nlShare this podcast: http://tkopod.co/p-allScrape small business data: http://tkopod.co/p-os---

I talk about how land that looks ugly, rural, or overlooked can actually become a serious income engine if you think about it differently. From renting out raw land for camping, parking equipment, or RVs, to placing sheds, tiny homes, or storage containers, I break down how people are making money without overcomplicating things.I also share ideas around subdividing land, master leases, portable self storage, tree farms, firewood, pallet businesses, sheds, sports courts, and even some weird but surprisingly profitable niches most people never consider. The big theme of this episode is optionality. Once you own land, especially land no one else wants, you suddenly unlock dozens of ways to monetize it.The goal here is to show that you do not need perfect property, massive capital, or years of experience to get started. You just need ideas, creativity, and the willingness to look at unwanted land as an opportunity instead of a problem.Enjoy! ---Watch this on YouTube instead here: tkopod.co/p-ytAsk me a question on or off the show here: http://tkopod.co/p-askLearn more about me: http://tkopod.co/p-cjkLearn about my company: http://tkopod.co/p-cofFollow me on Twitter here: http://tkopod.co/p-xFree weekly business ideas newsletter: http://tkopod.co/p-nlShare this podcast: http://tkopod.co/p-allScrape small business data: http://tkopod.co/p-os---

She shared how she bought pallets of school books for $1, which is what she usually pays, used eBay and ChatGPT to sort and list the inventory, and turned that into roughly $5,000 in revenue. We talked about why curriculum is the real money maker, how book arbitrage actually works, and why this is a business almost anyone can start with just a phone and very little upfront cost.
