Codie Sanchez Reveals 4 Profitable Business Ideas Men Are Sleeping On

**Shaan Puri** (0:00)
I just got a text message that says, let's get some estrogen in this bitch. That's right, we have a guest host today. Sam is out, he had a baby, congratulations to him.
But we have Codie Sanchez here to take his place. And Codie texts me because she says, I got a bunch of ideas for dudes who don't understand the women's market.
And they're not playing these games, there's less competition, but these are big opportunities. So she said she's got four ideas that are blind spots for men, but that the women will understand. So for the four female listeners out there, this is your day. Today is your day. The moment you've been waiting for. It only took us 500 episodes to make an episode that is catered around ideas for the market for women. I can barely even say it. I don't even understand. I'm excited to see what she says. The second thing that I'm gonna do is, Codie is always on social media talking about buying laundromats. And I'm gonna ask her, I'm gonna ask her, Codie, do you really buy fucking laundromats? And do these make money? And why are you buying these things? So that's what's coming in the second half of the episode. And at the end, I'm gonna ask her about her content game, because she's built up a following, got millions of followers now.
She said she does 100 million impressions a month across all her channels. And this is all kind of in three years. So she's built an amazing social brand. But with that comes a bunch of haters and people saying that she's just like a business guru or a grifter. So I'm gonna ask her straight up. I'm gonna say, hey, what's the deal? Codie, are you a grifter? And what's your response to that? Address the haters. And we're gonna ask her to address the haters. So that's what's in this episode. Hope you enjoy this episode with our guest host.
Codie Sanchez. Okay, what's up? We got Codie Sanchez in the house, guest host. Congrats to Sam. He had his baby. He's out on daddy leave, patty leave, whatever people call it nowadays. He is going skin to skin. He's swaddling, he is diaper changing. I'm sure he's doing all those things. Haven't actually asked him because gotta give the man some space.
But I decided while Sam's out, I wanna have guest hosts. So not just a guest, but a guest host. And what I mean by that is, here's the criteria.
Somebody who I already know and like, so a friend, a friend of the house. Number two is they gotta know the vibe. So they listen to MFM, they know that what this podcast is all about is talking about ideas, opportunities, or interesting businesses that not everybody knows about.
So they gotta come prepared with that.
And it's like a host. So you're taking the role of Sam, Codie, how does that feel? Are you ready to be Sam?

Do I have to drink hose water if I also co-host?

**Shaan Puri** (2:30)
You know Sam really, really well. You've hung out with him in person. So I feel like you got his, you know his vibe.

**Codie Sanchez** (2:36)
Yeah, totally.
No, Sam's a dear friend and so is Sarah. And I think they're gonna make hell of parents. So I'm stoked. But yes, those are big, huge, giant shoes and he's a giant man to fill. So I'll try to do the best I can.

Let's take a quick break to ask this question. What if you could find, track, and close all your deals in one place? What if your schedule, your goals, your to-do list, your emails were all organized in one tab instead of dozens of tabs? What if connecting with customers didn't leave you with so many what-ifs? What if I stopped talking about what-ifs and I just told you about HubSpot's Sales Hub?

And for people who don't know, give us like the 30 seconds.
Who are you so that people understand who they're messing with?

**Codie Sanchez** (3:36)
Yeah. Well, I run something called Contrarian Thinking, which is probably how people know about me on the internet. That's a newsletter actually like slightly inspired by Sam and our other friends at Morning Brew.
