My Business Pivoted. Here's What I Learned. 11/16/2019

My Business Pivoted. Here's What I Learned. http://traffic.libsyn.com/2createawebsite/podcast26_Nov1619.mp3 In 2017, I launched Passive Shirt Profits. I knew I was venturing into a new niche that probably wasn't going to be met with instant success like I had with 2 Create a Website. It's a different time now, and I knew I wouldn't have the early Google traffic to carry me along like I did here. Nevertheless, it was the right decision for me at the time, and it also made me realize how I much I need something else in addition to money in order to feel fulfilled with running a website. Pivoting isn't always easy, but sometimes it's necessary and I've had a lot of revelations since that time. In a nutshell, don't be afraid of change! /episode/index/show/2createawebsite/id/12061556

Why My Business Pivoted & So Glad I Did! 11/16/2019

Why My Business Pivoted & So Glad I Did! Pivoting is scary because it usually means you are starting something new. After many, many years of success with 2 Create a Website, it was time to do something new. Why? Because the industry was changing and honestly, I was burned out. In this episode, I share how moving to a new niche in 2017 was scary because I knew I wouldn't have the instant success I had with 2 Create a Website. However, it unlocked a desire to learn a skill I had suppressed because I was told it wouldn't make me enough money. After two years of running Passive Shirt Profits, this is what I've learned about myself and what I NEED in business, no matter the niche. /episode/index/show/2createawebsite/id/12061343
