After 26 Failed Ideas I'm Finally Making A Living With My Side Projects
What's your backstory and how did you get into entrepreneurship?
I have a Bcom degree in Informatics but while studying I started dabbling in Yahoo Geocities where the site-building bug bit. There was no looking back.
After a short romance with Adobe Flash and Dreamweaver, I discovered WordPress and that set the stage for a good decade of spinning up WP sites for clients all over the globe.
However, I was always building little projects/tools/apps on the side - scratching my little itches - one being a collection of Single Page websites to convince my clients they didn't need a 5-page website.
Fast forward to a few years ago, and after a TON of experimentation with various monetization, I leaped full-time maker as my side project income surpassed my Cape Town expenses.
