"People said to me, I love your buy list. Is there a way I can invest in that? And I said, no."

Market Gap

Investors struggle to access curated stock portfolios.

Many investors express a desire to invest in curated lists of high-quality stocks but find it challenging to access these investment opportunities. Existing funds often require large minimum investments or are not aligned with individual investor goals. Eddy Elfenbein's experience shows that investors want simple, accessible ways to invest in a curated selection of stocks. The lack of products that cater to this specific need creates a gap in the market. Without a dedicated platform, smaller investors miss out on potentially high-return opportunities presented by expert-curated lists.

Summary

Creating a platform that allows individual investors to invest in a curated ETF based on a high-quality stock buy list could fill the gap for those seeking expert guidance. The platform would leverage Eddy Elfenbein's concept of a buy list, which features a selection of well-researched stocks that are expected to perform well over time. Investors could participate with lower minimums, thus making it accessible to a broader audience. This ETF would be marketed as a way to simplify stock investment for individuals looking for quality over quantity, thus addressing the common concern about stock selection and portfolio management.

Great question! For a saas idea like this, I'd recommend starting with these validation steps:

  1. Customer interviews: Talk to Subject Matter Expert to understand their pain points
  2. MVP approach: Build a simple landing page to test demand

Yes, and what about the technical implementation? Should I build this myself or hire a team?

Diversified ETF Selection Platform

The business idea is to create a platform that simplifies the selection of diversified ETFs and mutual funds for individual investors. This platform would allow users to easily compare funds based on performance metrics, fees, and risk levels. Users could input their investment goals and risk tolerance, and the platform would generate tailored recommendations for funds that meet their criteria. By focusing on user experience and providing educational resources, this service would help demystify the investment process for individuals who may feel overwhelmed by the plethora of options. The target audience would include novice investors and those looking to enhance their portfolios without extensive financial knowledge. The platform could utilize algorithms to aggregate data from various funds and present it in a digestible format, similar to how some financial planning tools operate.
