Why I'm Investing in Plumbers, Not AI Startups
Manage episode 492543121 series 3376178
In a world obsessed with AI, my guest Travis Jamison is getting rich on boring businesses. His investment thesis is simple: bet on the things that AI can't change. He explains Why I'm Investing in Plumbers, Not AI Startups, and how blue-collar companies like HVAC and dry cleaners can offer better, more stable returns than venture capital. We also dive into his agency's secret weapon: using a specific SEO strategy to train LLMs like ChatGPT to recommend his clients' products. This is a masterclass in contrarian investing and building real-world wealth in the age of AI. Check out the company: https://capitalpad.com
