Black Friday Deals Don’t Change Your Life. Ideas Do. (50% Off)

This weekend is loud.

Everyone is buying more stuff, more gadgets, more clothes, more noise.
Every inbox is trying to convince you that if you buy this one thing, your life changes.

But Black Friday has a hidden truth:

It’s the best weekend of the year to invest in yourself instead of everyone else’s business.

Tools are cheaper.
Knowledge is cheaper.
The excuses disappear.

So here’s ours:

From today through December 1st, NTE Pro is 50% off with code BFNTE50

Today, NTE Pro has over 6,000 startup ideas across every category you can imagine.

The thing no one tells you is this:

Black Friday isn’t just valuable because you can save money.
It can be valuable because you can also save time.

It can shortcut the hardest part of starting something, the part where you stare at a blank page trying to figure out:

• what to build

• where the opportunity is

• whether the idea is already taken

• whether the timing is right

If you’ve been thinking about it…
If you’ve been watching from the sidelines…
If you’ve ever said, “I should build something”…

This is the moment to move instead of wait.

You don’t need to catch the perfect idea.
You just need one spark.

So while the rest of the world buys things they won’t remember next week…

Use this weekend to build something future-you will brag about.

50% off NTE Pro with code BFNTE50 ends December 1.

After that, we close the window and go back to building.

Now let’s give you a few Black Friday Ideas

Last Time the Market Was This Expensive, Investors Waited 14 Years to Break Even

In 1999, the S&P 500 peaked. Then it took 14 years to gradually recover by 2013.

Today? Goldman Sachs sounds crazy forecasting 3% returns for 2024 to 2034.

But we’re currently seeing the highest price for the S&P 500 compared to earnings since the dot-com boom.

So, maybe that’s why they’re not alone; Vanguard projects about 5%.

In fact, now just about everything seems priced near all time highs. Equities, gold, crypto, etc.

But billionaires have long diversified a slice of their portfolios with one asset class that is poised to rebound.

It’s post war and contemporary art.

Sounds crazy, but over 70,000 investors have followed suit since 2019—with Masterworks.

You can invest in shares of artworks featuring Banksy, Basquiat, Picasso, and more.

24 exits later, results speak for themselves: net annualized returns like 14.6%, 17.6%, and 17.8%.*

Post-Black-Friday Price Insurance

The Problem
Nobody knows if they bought at the right moment. Prices drop again two weeks later and you feel scammed. Fear of “missing the better deal” kills conversions.

The Solution
A one-click price insurance add-on that pays you the difference automatically if the item gets cheaper anywhere in the season. Like travel insurance, but for discounts.

Why It Needs to Exist
Dynamic pricing and “surprise sales” rewired consumer psychology. The next era isn’t coupons, it’s protection from regret.

The Counterargument
“Retailers won’t like it.” Initially, you don’t need them. Start like Rakuten or Honey then layer on top.

The MVP
User uploads receipt. System tracks price changes. If it drops → instant payout.

Example: Buy a $600 TV. Price falls to $450. You get $150 back automatically.

The Resale-Backed Black Friday Store

The Problem
Holiday purchases feel like a gamble. Buyers end up with expensive stuff they regret and returns are a nightmare.

The Solution
A store where every product includes a guaranteed resale floor. If you don’t want it later, the platform buys it back.

Why It Needs to Exist
Consumers want flexibility. They want the right to change their mind more than they want the product.

The Counterargument
“Won’t the platform lose money?” Not if the floor is smart. The risk is priced in.

The MVP
Start with one category: fitness, premium electronics, or outdoor gear. Build inventory velocity.

Example: Buy a Peloton for $900 knowing you can sell it back for $600 anytime.

The Black Friday Ghost-Cart Marketplace

The Problem
Millions of abandoned carts are hiding insane deals, wasted buyer intent and wasted discounts.

The Solution
Turn abandoned carts into a marketplace anyone can buy from. Same product, same discount, same store.

Why It Needs to Exist
Checkout is the biggest failure point in ecommerce. People don’t want to search they want discovery.

The Counterargument
“Will people buy someone else’s cart?” If the deal is good, yes. They don’t care where it came from.

The MVP
Start with Shopify or just scrape and match product-deal combos.

Example: Someone bails on a $299 Apple Watch deal. You buy it in one click.

Black Friday 2026

A year from now you’re going to be in one of three places:

You built something.
You’re still thinking about building something.
Or someone else built the idea you had.

Let future-you be the one who moved.

If you want the unfair advantage like the ideas, the inspiration, the categories you don’t see anywhere else, NTE Pro is where people go when they want to stop planning and start building.

NTE Pro is 50% off with code BFNTE50 until December 1.
After that, we close the discount and go back to building.

Here’s to stepping into the next version of yourself.
Here’s to momentum.
Here’s to the builders, not the spectators.
