🧃This is Business Juice – built for doers, not dreamers. Here's what we launched this week.

On a mission to be the most read, actionable and fun email in your inbox.

Yo, 

You're reading the beta version of Business Juice – the BJ you know you can look forward to, rain or shine.

We're moving fast, stumbling along, and figuring things out as we go – just like you should be when validating your startup idea.

Which means, this newsletter might not hit the mark every time, and we're ok with that.

Enough waffle, onto the Juice you came for. 

🚀 FREE, Useful AND Actionable

1) Validation on Demand

Want to validate your startup idea?

Hit reply to this email with a few paragraphs about what you’re working on and we'll send you back a full idea breakdown and validation scoring report. 

2) Founder Fitness Scorecard

Worried you don’t measure up? Want to play to your strengths? Cool – that’s smart.

We offer a Full Founder Fitness Scorecard for $149 – but you can get a free version just for being a subscriber – pretty sweet, right?

[Still in work, let us know you want it and we’ll send it to you as soon as it’s fired up and ready]

🧃 Freshly Squeezed: What Happened This Week

💥 Business Juice launched Club300 + Idea Validation-as-a-Service

Mr Juice rolled up his sleeves and quietly opened the velvet rope to Club300 – a handpicked crew of 300 early supporters getting first sips of our builds, ideas, drops, and businesses you can build (👀).

Also live: Idea Validation-as-a-Service. Got an idea that slaps but no time to validate? Toss it to us and we’ll test it before you waste a weekend – or your will to live.

🎙️ MFM x Scott Galloway: “Babies are underrated”
On My First Million, Galloway went full doomer-dad: shrinking population = long recession = prepare your bunker. While flexing his love for parenting, he still casually dissed anyone under 18 months old. Sam (a new dad) and Shaan (dad of 3) didn’t blink.
💡 TL;DR: US Economic Downturn on the way. And your portfolio might suffer before your nursery fills up.

📚 Steph Smith & Cal Rosser: SYDLIS is (almost) back
New season of Shit You Don’t Learn In School is brewing. Steph + Cal promise more unsexy insights, creative rabbit holes, and deadpan honesty. It’s like couple’s therapy for builders – but you get smarter instead of sadder.

🔌 Internet Pipes: IP Digest Vol. 1
The team at IP dropped a banger: batteries, vending machines, and sky diaries. Feels like Wired and Strange TikTok had a baby, gave it Adderall, and told it to ship something weird but useful. (This is a paid subscriber only read)

⚡ Quick Sips: Weird, Useful, Click-Worthy

  • 🛡️ Club300 has a mascot now.
    Mr Juice went full Spartan – spear, shield, and citrus slice. It’s giving This. Is. Flavortown.

  • 🎤 Testing: Plaud.ai
    Trying out Plaud – a tiny AI-powered mic that transcribes convos in real time.
    The jury’s still out, but if it works, this might replace your meetings, note-taking, and that VA you keep forgetting to brief.

🔒 Exclusive Juice: Club300 is Open – And We’re Building With You

We just opened the gates to Club300 – our most no-fluff, builder-first move yet.

It’s a closed group of 300 early supporters who’ll help shape what Business Juice becomes – from experiments to equity. If you’re reading this, you’re early. If you’re in the club, you’re part of the build.

🛠️ Here’s what’s on the bench:

  • Idea Validation-as-a-Service → live now, testing every weird business idea we can throw at it

  • The Juice Lab → our private R&D garage for tested blueprints and live builds

  • Community-driven sprints → we’ll ship new tools, templates, and start-ups with Club300 before anyone else sees them

But instead of this just being some "early access" thing. It’s a co-build. Join us and you’ll get:

  • A direct say in what gets built

  • The first looks at drops, decks, data

  • And invitations to build, invest, or clone the good stuff

🎯 If you're in Club300 – you won’t just be watching from the sidelines. You'll be on the out there, doing it.

And if you're not in yet? There’s still time – but not much.

🎉 Wildcard Juice: Send Memes, Not Decks

  • Mr Juice got a spear, a shield, and a death wish this week. The new Club300 mascot is basically what happens when you mix 300, Tropicana, and late-stage capitalism.

  • If you’re pitching someone this week, consider this your reminder:
    Memes > Decks.
    Clarity beats cleverness. If you can’t fit your start-up into a tweet and a punchy JPG, it’s not ready for investors – it’s still soup.

  • Speaking of memes – we’re collecting the spiciest, stupidest, smartest founder memes for our newsletter outro section.
    Send yours to [email protected] with the subject line:
    “Juicy Meme.”
    Best ones get featured (and probably turned into stickers).

👋 Until Next Squeeze…

That’s it for this week’s pulp.

If you learned something, laughed once, or got a nudge to build – hit reply and say hey. Mr Juice reads everything (even in his war helmet).

We’re not here to play the algorithm.
We’re here to build.
We f*ck-up, have fun and always try to be helpful.

And decide if you’re with us.

Stay juicy,
– Team Business Juice (all 3 of us)
