The status quo is optional.

Hey! I'm Joshua Dagg. I'm slightly above average at discovering opportunities to do business sustainably and efficiently.

This blog hosts my most innovative and ridiculous products, apps, hustles, ideas, and ventures with the goal of prioritizing long-term net benefit over short-term profit. Let me be clear, profit is essential to success. I just think we can do better than the status quo.

Reach out if you're interested in making something you see here a reality and I can help guide your way to profitability and purpose. Check out the services tab or contact me to chat.
