A must-read entertainment book for wantrepreneurs and woulda-coulda-shouldas! It’s like having a season of Shark Tank on your coffee table.
Everyone loves spit-balling about business ideas and pitching to friends their half-baked, half-serious “million dollar idea” that they have little intention of ever actually pursuing. These ideas are entertaining to listen to and even more fun to debate. The Lazy Entrepreneur: 37 Half-Baked Million Dollar Ideas is a collection of these brilliant ideas all in one place, illustrated and written about in an entertaining way. Over twenty different contributors are featured in this collection that is sure to amuse and inspire with ideas like:
* DaycAir, an airline that devotes a portion of every plane to a professionally staffed, sound-proofed daycare seating and play area. Parents sit in front, unburdened by anxiety and alienation. Kids are in back, safe and sound, and free to act their age.
* The Wedding Tree, a decorative tree that celebrates the engagement and impending nuptials of a loving couple. This fabricated new wedding tradition is like the Christmas tree – wedding gifts accumulate under the tree as the big day gets closer and are finally opened once the couple is officially wed.
* Sleeping with Friends, a subscription bed linens service that delivers clean sheets directly to your home. Busy moms, lazy college students, and washer/dryer-less city dwellers will never have to wash their own sheets again!
* FaceSpace, a company that sells advertising on the pollution masks that people wear in China. Pollution masks are worn by over a billion people every day. That’s a lot of valuable unused media real estate.
* …and over 30 more!
“I often dream about starting my own company, until I realize how much work that would take,” said practically everyone. The Lazy Entrepreneur is filled with real ideas from real people who aren’t pursuing them. This book began as a project intended to be equal parts thought-provoking and entertaining. It’s like having a season of Shark Tank on your coffee table!
