Having an online business is a wild, beautiful ride!
In 2012, I quit my 9-5 job as a shop worker and started an online graphic design business. I had no financial help, no degree and no marketing or business experience to help me - just my own determination to make it work.
Now, I’ve built an online business that has allowed me to work 20 hours a week and travel the world.
I’ve gone from:
Being stuck in a hometown I used to hate.
Getting £6 (ish) per hour for my work.
Having a boss I didn’t like and was scared of.
Only being able to travel for four weeks per year.
To…
Having the ability to live anywhere I want!
Working 20 hours a week and earning 18x what I made at my day job
Being my own boss *whoop whoop*
Traveling the globe and spending months in New York, Nicaragua and Asia (as well as taking smaller trips to places like Bali, France, Italy, Austria and more!)
If I can build the business and freedom-filled lifestyle of my dreams, so can you.
I’m not special. I don’t have some X factor that helped me do it. I’m a regular girl who had no real business or marketing experience (besides a failed attempt at an Etsy shop) and I come from the fourth poorest town in the UK, according to Google.
Regardless of who you are and whether you have or do not have the money or experience to start a business, I believe you can. And in today’s video and podcast episode, I hope to inspire you to believe that you are capable and you CAN run your own business.
