Make $9 While You Sleep

Here is the deal: All you need is an Alexa device in the same room that you sleep.  Every night at 2:30am, when most people are deep in REM, Alexa starts whispering subtly and gently.  What she is saying is very convincing suggestions that try to influence your subconscious.  This could be political ads, product placement, or whatever ad buyer wants to legally broadcast.  The point is the hour long dream hacking ads would net you $9 every morning when you wake up.

Everything about this idea is possible to do today.  Program an Alexa app, sell and create ads, verification system that the ad was played, etc. All I need now are volunteers to try this. I want to call the company DreamWashing.  I asked my team if they would sign up for this service and all of them said yes.  They just added up how much money a month they would make and they sold me their sleeping mind. The reason this feels different than advertisements made while you are awake is that those seem to always get blocked by multitasking and other ways to ignore. When you are sleeping, there is a chance a one hour hypnotic ad telling you why Toyota is the only car that makes sense for the family you love if you want them safe. It could just be hour of deep programming of the subsconciense.

What would you do?  Need more money?  Would you do it for less?

I want to share way more ideas with you all. They get weirder than this.
