My Moneymaking Schemes That Failed
When you’re trying to make money, you make a lot of mistakes, and sometimes the entire business is the mistake. This taught me that it’s important to know when to quit. The worst thing you can do is keep doing something that will never work when you could be investing time into something else.
*All of these businesses were created in a time span of roughly 2 years.
Blogging
I started a blog just to practice my writing and marketing skills so I could eventually get a job in the field. I eventually turned my blog into a marketing service, and somehow got a job in a marketing agency even though my site was terrible.
I did get some clients and it was more of an advisory service than anything else. I’m still confused as to how I got any traction with this.
I eventually transformed my website into a health blog. It was a hard switch but because I was still relatively new, I thought, fuck it.
I did start to get some traction but I didn’t see myself doing this long term and I wanted to try something new, something I could do long term. So guess what, I made another hard switch with the same website.
This time I went to selling clothing.
