The best business ideas come from noticing what's working and doing it better, faster, or for a different audience.

YouTube
Organic product screenshots as content
Why It Works
Doesn't look like promotion when you're sharing your actual usage, creates curiosity and social proof
Prerequisites
Product that creates shareable visual outputsAudience interested in the problem spaceNatural integration with your content themes
How to Execute
1
Use your own product regularly and authentically
2
Share screenshots as part of regular content flow
3
Let audience ask questions rather than pushing sales
4
Focus on utility and results rather than features
When It Fails
Product doesn't create interesting visuals, audience sees through forced usage, over-promotion
Real Example
“Share workout screenshots from your fitness app, get dozens of comments asking what app it is, natural product discovery without looking like advertising.”
