What business would you build on Mars:

I’d approach it like I’d approach anything here on earth. The first thing I’d do is understand the current landscape: What’s available? What’s on the market? What do the martians need that they don’t have? Understand what those needs are first and try not to push a product or a service on them. 

Surveys and interviews, as boring as they sound, are super helpful to either validate the assumptions that you already have… And understanding where the martians are consuming their media? How do they like to be spoken to and making sure you’re bringing a message to them - making it as easy as possible. The “so what” factor is important in this as well...

Not underestimating the power of testing. Whether it’s iterating over and over or ABCDE XYZ testing. If you approach it that way, me and Elon would be very successful.
