Back in 2013, I had already discovered my passion - personal development - and had realized writing is the best way to express myself. So I combined these and started a self-improvement blog.
Starting the blog was the best decision and not giving up on it over the years (even when no traffic or money was coming in) was what helped me move forward.
It was first just a hobby and I knew nothing about blogging. Over the years, after publishing a ton of content, gaining traffic, learning about SEO, email marketing, social media, and all the ways to monetize a blog, it became a real business.
2. Start a sporting goods store ($300K/year)
Kyler Russell from Midwest, Kansas, USA started Comfy Cup LLC almost 7 years ago, a sporting goods store.
- Revenue: $25,000/ month
- Founders: 2
- Employees: 2
- Location: Midwest, Kansas, USA
I loved playing baseball, but felt that the hard athletic cup I was required to wear was, well, a pain in the crotch. I tried almost every youth athletic cup on the market and nothing felt comfortable.
Starting a business seems like a really hard thing to do, but it is really just lots and lots of tiny steps in the direction you need to go.
Honestly, I threw a fit about wearing it before every practice and game, but I had to wear it. During one of my pre-game frustrations, my mom said, "If you don't like something. Quit whining about it and come up with a solution!"
