IdeaDrop Podcast: Recent Episodes
Kendall Bachman & Dustin Alexander
Straight-talk chats around the 99+ businesses we would start if we had more time. Instead of interviewing successful founders, we ask incredible business builders what businesses they would want to start if they had the time. Get a creative boost and snag some insights. New episodes every Monday.
Have you been struck by the Pickleball craze that's sweeping the nation? We sure have, and our latest chat is all about riding the wave of this sport's explosive growth. With the wisdom of Tito Machado, CEO of a trailblazing predictive analytics rating system, we delve into how this simple game is creating complex opportunities. Tito walks us through his leap from Canary Islands aficionado to a central figure in the sport's competitive scene, and we dig into why Pickleball has become more than just a pastime—it's a thriving community ripe for the ambitious.
Caught between a laugh and a competitive rally, our conversation serves up a mix of personal tales and industry insights. We reminisce about rubbing elbows with tennis royalty like Andre Agassi and how such experiences inform our view of the sports world. The magnetism of Pickleball is undeniable, whether you're a newcomer eager to join in on the fun or an industry insider spotting the next big trend. Our episode peels back the layers of what makes a player more than just a number with the Dupre rating system, and how that's changing the game for clubs and players alike.
Finally, we volley over to the business end, debating the potential gold mines within Pickleball's expanding market. From paddles to the surprisingly profitable pickleballs themselves, we examine the economic spikes and strategies that could play out for entrepreneurs and enthusiasts alike. Join us as we swing through the community and culture of Pickleball, and maybe, just maybe, you'll be inspired to grab a paddle and join the legion of fans making this sport a lifestyle.
In this episode, Dustin and Kendall discuss their thoughts on the Israel / Palestine and Russia / Ukraine conflicts, the geopolitical ramifications of war, and how these factors affect global commerce as a whole.
And as usual, in traditional IdeaDrop style, they round things out with your weekly dose of out-of-the-box business ideas, from wacky to lucrative - including Ikea for Kids, Kitty Golf, Picklebets, and more.
In this episode Dustin and Kendall will share some great ideas, from Parenting apps, to Podcasts, to an establishment that is the "Top Golf" for Pickle Ball lovers.

Dustin’s problem with dopamine fasts.
- Dustin makes the case that dopamine fasts are a fad but really we need to face the fact that all future generations will face tons of noise, and we need to work on our critical thinking and judgement to be fit for the new normal.
NoCode is going to explode over the next 7 years.
- Kendall is building a NoCode department in his business - which is full of people who write code for a living. Marketing use cases for developers (web devs) will more and more need to adapt to drag and drop NoCode tools to keep up.
- Developers in FAANG (Facebook, Amazon, Apple, Netflix, Google) are currently making $500k salaries and beyond. A friend from construction re-skilled himself after 15 years and now makes $105k after a developer/designer bootcamp - a 100% pay jump from construction.
Kendall’s failed marketing agency and what he'd do differently.
- Kendall's marketing agency was closed down when he struggled to pay himself enough to run it, meanwhile competitors were charging double. If he could do anything different, it would only be charging double - allowing him to pay higher wages to talented employees, have a marketing, finance, and HR budget, and his own family enough to stay in the game.
An agency that only americanizes landing pages.
- An incredibly easy business right now would be to solely translate and Americanize landing pages for businesses overseas that are selling to US consumers.
- Researcher finds a landing page that is obviously off
- An email is sent to the company with a flat rate to redo the copy
- Rinse and repeat.
Itch-reducing boob pillows.

Business concepts in this episode:
- Buy a backpack sprayer and use paid ads to get some mosquito-spray service contracts.
- Flip books from thrift stores and craigslist using Amazon's FBA scanning app.
- Buy trucks in Oregon and sell them in California.
- Buy some land (owner finance) and plant Peonies. Sell them to wedding planners.
- Chris started an email marketing business with Kendall in 2018 (grew to 15 retainer clients and went out of business. Pricing to customers was too low).
- Airbnb's are great businesses in niche markets for a busy hustler. Consider renting, partnering, or owner financing if you don't have enough cash to go for it. Here's Chris's first airbnb, and here's his latest.
- Rent a bulldozer and go work as a firefighting contractor for thousands per day.
- Dustin provided broadcasting services (live) for fire updates by the government. It also makes huge day rates. (Find a niche, and charge for it!)

Scannable Ink. A high tech startup has completly changed the need for barcodes that can be scanned. Instead, any logo, color, or printing at all can have a subtle pattern in it that a scanner can read (and fetch product info. This means you could take a single picture and scan 100 items at the checkout stand without needing a person to scan each one.
Link coming soon.
The IRS can just take your tax money Kendall has his checking account garnished for not filing 2018 taxes yet. He is delighted by the best customer support call ever... by none other than the IRS, and regrets not calling them 3 years ago.
3D QR codes Could be manufactured to be shuffled around like a rubix cube or sliding puzzle, and then publish a custom link with the click of a botton. Think use cashes at the front of house in restaurants, or sales in retail stores, etc. No technical chops needed.

The S.E.C. took $120m in assets (first position performing owner financed real estate notes) from the founders, shut down the private equity fund I used to work at, and handed them over to a specialty law firm to divest... giving the fund's investors pennies on the dollar. Here's the formal S.E.C. complaint for you legal nerds out there
Butter Knights hold butter knives upright over the butter tray (with flair!) so that your messy knife doesn't have to be awkwardly balnaced on the butter tray edge, or unnessesarily washed a million times.
Silicon Suction Stir-Spoon Suspenders is a rip off of a common way to hold a tooth brush. Instead, someone should make tens of thousands of these in China and sell them as spoon-holders that would suction to the side of the fridge or coffee pot, etc. I liken it to these fancy toothbrush holders on Bespoke.
