There is a great opportunity for a new type of business.
Tech-enabled businesses by smart non-tech hustler minded people.
This types of businesses are between regular businesses and startups.
This might change the ecosystem.

What they are not doing:
Building a startup.
Why?
Because it's not in their DNA.
And that's okay.
The startup builders are completely different in nature.
So the middle route is interesting.
Startups = very high risk, very high reward
Businesses = low risk, low reward

What is a tech-enabled business?
It's something that requires minimal technology, serves a tailored niche, has strong roots in market/demand and requires a lot of hustling mentality.
No money raising.
Results or nothing.
Perfect for these individuals.

Ex's:
- Product that asks you 10 questions every day and tells you how mentally/physically strong you are
- Product that helps you find real estate using people that live in your targeted neighborhood
- Product that grows your Twitter following and engagement
I can go on.

So how to go from here?
Possibilities:
1. Connect Hustlers with Techies to become co-founders.
2. Help Hustlers in tech enablement.
3. Wait for the AI to kill us.
Why do I care?
I think it's a great opportunity with world-wide impact.

Can I help in this?
F*ck yes.
I'm in the intersection of innovation, tech, business and hustling.
I will be happy to be the butterfly that triggered something small that slowly raptured.
