How to Spot Untapped Markets Before Anyone Else: Jeremy Delk’s Playbook Part 1
Manage episode 483845752 series 2849829
Dan Rochon sits down with serial entrepreneur and venture capitalist Jeremy Delk to reveal how to identify business opportunities hiding in plain sight. From losing $2 million in four days to building multi-exit companies, Jeremy shares raw lessons about pattern recognition, authenticity, and why most people never make their ideas real. This episode is your backstage pass to understanding how investors really think and how you can get in the room.
What you’ll learn on this episode
- Untapped markets aren’t always new sometimes they’re old industries approached differently.
- Most people fail not because of bad ideas, but because of a lack of belief and clarity.
- Business success starts with solving people’s problems, not chasing trends.
- Pattern recognition is learned from losses, not textbooks.
- Transparency in leadership attracts capital and people masking your weaknesses repels both.
- Markets reward disruption especially when others say “that’s how it’s always been done.”
- Real growth starts when you stop pretending to be perfect and start owning your gaps.
At the heart of this conversation is a simple truth: real business success comes from clearly communicating value and solving real problems. If you're working to sharpen that clarity in your own business, Dan’s upcoming book Teach to Sell offers a practical framework to help you attract clients and opportunities by leading with what you know.
