Why do the most boring businesses quietly make the most money? In this episode, Mike Terkanian and Gummi Sigurdarson break down why laundromats, pest control, and even septic tank companies can outperform flashier startups — and how real entrepreneurs find profit in the “unsexy” corners of business.
They also dive into the rise of AI in small business — from a 60-year-old carpenter catching hate online to the blurred lines between creativity, automation, and copyright.
Topics include:
- How “boring” businesses win big by solving real problems
- Why sales is the most valuable entrepreneurial skill
- The danger of ignoring marketing when building an app
- When equity beats cash in small business deals
- The truth about AI creativity and copyright law
