I found 3 opportunities where demand is high, competition is low, and people are ready to spend money. Here's what makes each one worth your attention.
Each one includes:
Why it's actually growing (real data)
Who's buying and what frustrates them
3 business ideas based on actual market gaps
Let's get into it.👇
1. Micro Wedding Venues 💍
9,900 monthly searches. +43% growth. People ready to book.
Why it's growing
Average wedding costs hit $33,000-36,000 in 2025. But micro wedding couples aren't just cutting costs. They value experiences and reallocating savings toward premium photography, elevated food and destinations.
Who's buying
Couples in their 30s-40s who prioritize intimacy over spectacle. The demand exists. The supply doesn't.
What frustrates them
The wedding industry isn't built for them. Caterers have 75-100 guest minimums. Venues require 150+ attendees. Photographer packages assume full-day coverage.
Business ideas
Pop-up wedding packages with rotating venues for all-inclusive 90-minute ceremonies ($3,000-6,500)
Weekday micro wedding packages filling empty Tuesday-Thursday venue slots
Micro wedding vendor marketplace connecting couples with scaled-down photography, catering, and floral services
2. Digital Planners 📔
12,100 monthly searches. +28% growth. Buyers ready to purchase.
Why it's growing
Growth tracks directly with iPad adoption. 56% of U.S. iPad users are 18-29 years old, the exact demographic obsessed with productivity optimization.
Who's buying
Predominantly female, ages 18-44, household incomes $50,000-100,000+. Use cases split between personal (habit tracking, budgets, meal planning), academic, professional, and creative.
What's oversaturated vs. underserved
Oversaturated: generic minimalist planners, basic budget trackers, simple to-do lists. Underserved: occupation-specific planners, non-English languages, neurodivergent-friendly designs.
Business ideas
Occupation-specific planners for real estate agents, nurses, teachers, or therapists ($35-50)
ADHD-friendly planners with simplified layouts and visual cues
Cross-platform planners that work in GoodNotes, OneNote, and standard PDF readers
3. Downsizing Services 🏡
590 monthly searches. +25% growth. $8.96 ad value per click.
Why it's growing
77 million Baby Boomers are aging into their 70s and 80s. 10,000 Americans turn 65 every day. 60% of Boomers are expected to downsize, and most haven't moved in 30-50 years.
Who's buying
Primary clients are in their 70s-80s, but adult children often initiate contact. Especially when they live far away or when a health event forces the conversation.
What frustrates them
Clients are overwhelmed and emotionally attached to belongings representing decades of memories. They need patience and compassion, not just logistics.
Business ideas
Digital legacy and memory preservation (photo digitization, digital account organization)
Realtor partnership models: you handle move management, they handle the sale
High-touch senior move management at the $1,500-5,000 per project price point
The Pattern
Every opportunity here shares three things: real demand exists, competition is low, and a big enough niche that has the funds to pay for a solution.
You don't need to invent something from scratch. You need to serve people already looking for solutions and not finding good ones.
Pick one that matches your skills or interests. Research it this week. Move before the crowd discovers the same data.
Till next week,
Noemi
