After that the hustle team built trends.co which was the premium subscription newsletter,Getting into trends.co costs a whopping $299 but trends stood out from it's competitors through the community engagement feature, unlike other premium newsletter the subscribers can engage with other founders and people in their community.

I don't wanna discourage people from trying to make side income with AI novels done with ChatGPT/Claude, or coloring books done with Midjourney, but that's literally the lowest hanging fruit.

I really like the one I recommended above. If you are looking to invest a little I think the best possible one is trends.co but the only issue is that costs $300 a year or something. Source: 12 months ago
