883: Reflections from... 16 YEARS!
Manage episode 427765238 series 2390339
What if your late-night passion project could evolve into a thriving business with millions of visitors and a full team of dedicated employees? Sixteen years ago, a heartfelt plea for Cristiano Ronaldo to stay at Manchester United sparked the creation of a soccer blog that would transform my entrepreneurial journey. Join me as I recount the serendipitous beginnings of my first business in June 2008, and the invaluable lessons learned about digital marketing, SEO, and revenue management along the way.
The journey was anything but smooth. For the first six months, we had no readers, and we made just $200 in the first year. Yet persistence and innovative growth tactics, like mastering SEO and forging strategic collaborations, led us to success. From leaving the website open on store devices to navigating legal battles and securing sponsorships from global brands, every challenge became a stepping stone. Discover how these experiences have shaped my approach to running a business and underscored the importance of unseen preparation and perseverance.
Reflecting on 16 years in the entrepreneurial world, I’ll share insights on the significance of mindset, persistence, and pursuing work that truly resonates with you. The journey has been filled with both highs and lows, but passion made it all worthwhile. These reflections highlight that enduring difficulties in business and life is part of a rewarding journey. Tune in to hear about the immeasurable rewards of perseverance and growth, and how every experience has uniquely prepared me for the future.
