Here's a business opportunity I promise you've never heard of.
It's got high margins, costs, almost nothing to start. The demand is growing. So I've worked in the industry before and I'm going to tell you how to copy this.
This company sells 3 million ice cubes per year at 1 to $10 a pop. You do the math on that luxury. Clear ice is a big business, but you don't have to have a lot of money to start it. This website going on behind me used to be a customer of mine. We would ship their clear ice around the country with dry ice and they sold it for hundreds of dollars.
Now to copy this business, I would start by using my free scraping guide and scraping all the restaurants area that are three to five dollar signs in price. Then once you make your ice cubes, you can stop by right before they open and give them some samples for free. Then you stop by a week or two later and try to sell them. This business is beautiful because it's recurring and you're selling water. You can still differentiate yourself by putting things in the eyes or carving the eyes.
You can do this locally. You could sell kits, you could have tasting events, you could teach a course. Or you can manufacture these yourself and sell them to weddings or local restaurants.
