By the way, is Trends a custom platform? I'd like to have a place to write newsletters using Markdown and have a public page to show a preview...
Looks like the page is using www.notion.so with www.super.so

Love this one and how it goes on to show that there are endless opportunities still largely untapped/unexplored if you can identify and cater to a niche. No-code makes these niche micro-marketplaces accessible to even founders without programming skills. Great report, Dru!
This was an awesome read last night. I bought my first pro report with the Paid Communities over the weekend and it was well worth the $20 โบ๏ธ
Thanks Wyatt!
Nice one Dru.
Probably my favourite edition of Trends so far. I think the rise of nocode makes all sorts of niche marketplaces economical (or at least economical to validate quickly!)
Yes! It's easier than ever to spin up a niche marketplace.
Lower costs (time, money, energy) makes it easier to justify the investment. Even if the expected return is lower. As @yoroomie says, marketplaces are great for non-technical founders.
Ooo about to dive in!! I donโt know much about this space. Excited to learn!
Is there anyone interested to buy this report with me? It looks super interesting but 50$ to get it , it is unfortunately too expensive ...
Thanks
Great as always, thanks Dru
Thanks for a new trend!
This is interesting but I really don't understand why you call niche marketplaces "micro-marketplaces". "Micro" means "very small" and a niche marketplace is not necessarily very small, and even small. It's definitely smaller than global marketplaces but a "micro" term is hardly applicable.
