Happy Sunday and a very warm welcome to all the new subscribers! I’m thrilled and honored to have you as readers and truly appreciate your thoughts and feedback 🙏. Each edition of 3 Things will contain a dive into 3 rabbit holes I’ve found myself going down recently and associated business opportunities. Subscribe to get each week’s edition straight to your inbox and if you enjoy it, please share (I suck at self-promotion so can use your help)! This past week I’ve been thinking a lot about:
Another banger Elaine! "Furniture Arbitrage" particularly resonated with me. I had a startup in that space called Rumgr (mobile friendly Craigslist). We were based in Las Vegas but saw a constant stream of Los Angeles <-> Las Vegas people moving back and fourth. I always thought it would be a good idea to put 1 warehouse in each city and just let people buy and sell (consignment style) on either side of that corridor as they move. Then use Lugg or Dolly to handle delivery.
The key to growth would be to ingest interstate (or intrastate, ex. Bay Area <-> LA) moving data and launch a new warehouse in the biggest moving corridors.
