With my first Agency, I was the CTO of a Web Development and Social Media Marketing firm; I started with my best friend (2015).
A bunch of stuff happened and after 6 years in business we had to scuttle our studio, go our separate ways.
I've since started a second Agency (2021), and I now tour out of a minivan with my wife.
Specifically so I can see more of this world, meet my Clients where they're at; but also to keep my own Expenses and Agency Overhead down. This allows me to be flexible with the demographic of who I can gift my services too; as it's more never JUST about the money.
As a Marketing Mentor and Brand Developer, I do 1:1 work, workshops, retreats, AND the actual Asset Fabrication.
We're Entrepreneurs, that means we pivot, do the unconventional thing, pivot, make our own luck, and create Opportunity.
Being squeezed in this economy has really encouraged our Digital Nomad lifestyle. I've had the opportunity to meet so many fun souls and creative clients this way; I want for little.
How do you make the failing dollar go farther? Cut out the bullshit, the extra overhead, and live an unconventional life. In short; learn to do more with less; and be happy doing it.
Money grows on trees, of human connection; so who do you need to meet today?
