Monica Little believes Etsy is the fastest and easiest way for small business owners like you to get in front of as many people as possible in the growing online shopping world.
Monica got a business degree, got out, took a corporate job in marketing.
She was working 40, 50, 60 hours a week, learning a lot but getting burnt out faster than a blunt in Snoop’s studio.
On the side, she was creating this little organic skincare line.
She started posting about it on social media and then made her way onto Etsy.
Justin Cao looks like he should slide his aviators down his nose and pinch some salt onto my steak from an awkward distance above it.
Doesn’t he?
What’s this Kmart Salt Bae doing in my feed?
Christ, don’t tell me it’s another Amazon FBA course.
I thought we decided that business model was done, finito, kaput.
Costs too much, takes too long, and if you somehow manage to make a sale, copycat competitors ooze from the woodwork to undercut you by a penny until you’re in an all-out sprint towards zero. No?
Elizabeth Hanes is the Bed Bath & Beyond cashier who sniffs your candles, nodding if she approves, side-eyeing the shit out of you if she doesn’t.
No, wait, she was your old science teacher, explaining how atoms are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
Actually, scratch that.
She’s the nurse who took your blood pressure, pressed the ice-cold stethoscope to your chest, and told you to “take a deep breath in… hold… and let it out” right before the doctor strolled in.
Caitlin Pyle started proofreading for court reporters fresh outta college. Three years later, it was her full-time gig.
In 2014, she launched Proofread Anywhere to teach others how to build a proofreading business.
She scaled the living hell out of it for nine years before exiting for $4.49 million. Now she lives in a van and sells coaching at SelfTransformation.com.
The new owners still use her in the marketing for Proofread Anywhere, which is weird.
Has the program lost the magic that made it successful? Is proofreading even a solid side hustle these days?
Rhen Bartlett can help you double your wholesale business in the next 90 days. And then, after that, scale to levels you never dreamt possible.
Rhen’s supposedly an eight-figure wholesaling coach.
His speciality? Growing wholesaling companies, creating and facilitating the opportunity to eliminate blind spots and install a proven process for profitability.
Sorry… what? I blacked out halfway through that sentence.
Are we still talking about wholesaling? I guess we are.
Kyle Henris used to fall asleep to sirens and the rhythmic thumping of his neighbor’s headboard up against their shared wall. Now, all’s he hears is his money counter.
Kyle’s a professional portfolio manager, million-dollar funded day trader, and makes a killing off his InvestCEO Skool group where he teaches his methods.
But let’s rewind.
Kyle grew up in Saginaw, Michigan, played baseball through college, graduated, became a CPA, did that for a year, hated it, switched to financial planning. Right?
So now he’s 24, working as a financial planner, cold calling like 100 people a day trying to get clients.
Jacob May stars in today’s episode of This Is Stupid and I Hate It, because nothing boils my blood like a guy whose entire identity is “I paid Grant Cardone a fortune for the privilege of building his brand.”
Why would anyone do that?
Maybe because he’s young and dumb and doesn’t know any better.
I mean, the kid flexes his Ford Mustang 5.0 on social media like it’s a Bugatti. What’s one of those brand new – $55k?
Quick:
Somebody call the valet at Olive Garden, we’ve got a billionaire pulling up for the Unlimited Soup, Salad, and Breadsticks.
Samantha Hurst over there looking like 13 out of 5 stars. I’m just saying, I’ll bet she’d get catcalled by construction workers on scaffolding.
She’s an ecom OG with two decades of experience starting, scaling, and selling ecommerce businesses.
Her book, The Speedy Start-Up, recently got a glow-up – updated and extended to keep pace with today’s fast-changing world.
She’s also the founder of Click Start Digital, an Australian-owned company that’s been helping thousands of people launch and grow their own ecom stores for 13+ years through expert coaching and bomb-ass training.
