🤑 Business

I’ve always wanted to be an entrepreneur, free to work for myself and make money on my own terms. It’s taken a lot of trial and error, but I finally have a successful business of my own. On this page, you’ll find everything I know about starting, running, and scaling a business, so you can find financial freedom.

The Magic of Entrepreneurship

Ever since I was a kid designing websites in my bedroom for my friends, I’ve wanted to be an entrepreneur. I love the freedom and autonomy it gives me, especially being able to make money and live life on my own terms.

These days, I run a multimillion dollar content creation business. We make money by creating great online content, and building educational products like courses. Since launching my YouTube channel seven years ago, I’ve made millions – enough to quit my job as a doctor, travel the world, and work as and when I want to.

But it hasn’t always been easy.

The Barriers to Building a Business

Building your own business is famously challenging. You’re probably juggling another job, your family, and other responsibilities, all while trying to get your passion project off the ground. It can be years before you see results, and lots of would-be entrepreneurs give up or burn out before they see any success.

I’ve come close to this myself a couple of times, and I know how it feels to put countless hours into a business and not see any results.

Which is why I’ve created these free resources to help entrepreneurs get ahead in our modern, creator-economy driven world.

Cracking the Creator Economy

Starting a business no longer just looks like creating a physical product and finding a place to sell it. Instead, you can make money online by building a brand, selling your expertise, and monetising your community. The online world allows anyone, anywhere, to make money from their passions.

In the articles below, you’ll find out how to develop your business ideas, how to hire a team, and how to market yourself online. Whether you’re looking to launch your very first business, or grow your existing revenue into the millions, these articles will give you the insight you need to make it happen.
