What made me sign up for[Trends Pro]( was the fact I’m now working on[Ticker Nerd]() full-time. The stand-ups with other founders are interesting. You can see exactly what other people are working on, plus if you need help you can ask. The[Trends Pro]( reports are also more detailed and I find these genuinely helpful. I often reference them.” ​ ​[Luciano](=) is building[Ticker Nerd](), a premium investing newsletter that helps everyday retail investors find US stocks worth keeping an eye on. ​ What's your most important habit? Weightlifting. The benefits are too good to ever stop. ​ What are you reading right now? ​[Do Hard Things: Why We Get Resilience Wrong by Steve Magness](=)​ I was struggling with decision-making (mostly around when to stop or start something). This book changed my definition of “toughness” and gave me some tools to help me make better decisions. ​ What product are you obsessively using right now? ​[Brain.fm]() that shares music to help you focus, relax and sleep. This might be a gimmick but it works for me. ​ What are you bullish on? Boring businesses. My brothers are plumbers and I’m pretty bullish they’ll build an incredible business. AI can help them run a better business but it can’t fix a broken pipe or water heater. ​ What are you bearish on? Content/affiliate sites monetized using ads that don’t have an email list. I think these are the first to go (sorry to all my SEO pals). ​ What's your favorite Trends Report? 🕸️[Programmatic SEO](=)​ Zapier, Tripadvisor and others scaled using this strategy.[Ticker Nerd]() will be next. ​ Exclusive Deal: Luciano is offering Trends.vc readers[lifetime access to Ticker Nerd]( for only $99 (usually $39.95/mo or $199/yr).[Use this link to sign up](. ​ ​ ​💬 Join the Conversation What [Trends Pro Members]( are talking about… - (📈 Pro) What to do if your [co-founder is leaving](​ ​ - (📈 Pro) [Product ideas for company knowledge management](​ ​ - (📈 Pro) Trends Pro members’ [favorite marketing resources](​ ​ ​ ​📘 Read This ​ ​[Benefits Sell, Features Don’t]()​ Your customers buy your product because it helps them get tangible results, not because it’s cool.
