Our Burning Questions Answered


Tell us about your business. How did the idea for your business come about?


The idea came to me a while back when I wanted to learn how to start online businesses. I was trying to learn as much as I could on how to make money online. The interviews were the best way to fast track the learning curve for me. I was asking people questions and realized I am not the only one with these questions. I realized that others could learn from them just as much as I had.


Just like everybody else, I Googled how to make money blogging. Of course, it all seems glamourous at first, but nobody tells you how much content you need to write, and how much traffic you need to generate from those content to make a little bit of money.


The interviews provided exactly what I needed as a new blogger. It provided fresh content from real experts. (less writing for me) and the site grew faster because they would all help promote their own interviews.



What are the highlights and low-lights of being an entrepreneur?


For me. the highlights include:

• Books sales and reviews

• When readers reach out to me about things they saw on my site

• My name being mentioned on other blogs

• My site being featured on blogs & online magazines


And the low-lights:

Include not knowing whether you’re on the right path. As entrepreneurs, we do things with no indication that what we’re doing is going to work. It’s like working in the dark. It is exciting, but at times you just want to throw in the towel.



What helps you stay driven and motivated to keep going in your business?


For one, I like what I am doing. I get to speak with amazing people every single day. Every day I see what the site can become so I keep doing it. Another reason is that the kids are watching.


As parents, we don’t realize how much they’re paying attention to what we say and do, but they are. So, for my 12-year-old son who I encourage to read daily and learn about finances and businesses, I must do what I preach or at least let him see me try. Kids learn by watching. They tend to do what we do, not what we say.
