With almost every product niche being filled with dominating products that are super hard to compete against, are there any product niches left for solo founders?

Dominating products is great. They can't compete against smaller niches. So much opportunity. Take newsletters for instance. Mailchimp is extremely bloated, trying to do everything, but end up doing nothing really well. So huge opportunity there to find a niche they do bad and can never do great, and then expand. We talked about this the other day. Geo located newsletters. Send newsletter to a persons geo location at the time they are most likely to read it, aka morning on Mon or Tue. CC @busmark_w_nika maybe also has more newsletter ideas, as she is mapping out the topic this week on PH.

@cristian_stoian_urzica yes, that's one of the categories that has some scope.

Ah, the quest for the elusive untapped product niches! It's like searching for a rare Pokémon in a sea of Pidgeys. Fear not, solo founder! Remember, even in a crowded market, there's always room for a fresh twist or a unique approach that can make your product stand out like a unicorn in a field of horses. So saddle up and embark on your entrepreneurial adventure!
