I think we’re going to see many $25M/yr+ revenue, 1 person businesses over the next 5 years
If software can make you 100x more productive, how much more productive will AI make you?
The thread on how it goes down for solopreneurs:
- No employees, just AI agents
- No fancy website, just Webflow
- No paid ads, just community & organic
- No venture capital, just bootstrapped
- High cash-flow, low stress
- Can run your business from an iPhone and a beach, not Silicon Valley
- Multiple streams of income, often recurring revenue
- Tech-enabled, creator-supercharged
- Run as a product studio, constant experiments
- Productized services or products sold
- Digital assets or high margin services
- Low cost to start, high trust products

This is called SEO 2.0 (follow @boringmarketer to stay up to date)
How to best prepare for this future:
1. Launch many products to build "maker muscles" (build product intuition) 2. Be a no-code/AI prompt wizard (your toolkit) 3. Build audiences, create communities (your first customers)
This gives you the ultimate leverage
Why this future is cool:
1. A side-project can evolve into life-changing 2. Opportunity is global, not just for the rich 3. Not everyone wants to start a company and go IPO but some enjoy a more solo experience

Biggest lesson running an 8 figure product studio:
If your graveyard isn’t bigger than your house, then you’re doing it wrong
