Notes from Chris
Episode 1878
Today’s episode is part of a new feature we’re doing in 2022 called ‘Your First $1,000.’ As you might surmise from the title, this is all about how someone made their first $1,000. How did they get to that point? Not their first $100,000—that’s cool, but it would probably be a long story. One thing I’ve learned is that once you begin to earn real money, the steps required to go to the next level—whether it’s $1,000 to $2,000, or even to $5,000 or $10,000 are often easier than that first real paycheck. With that in mind, today’s feature comes from Kelan Kline. We first featured his project, TheSavvyCouple.com, back on Episode #1620. As you’ll hear, that blog is now a multiple six-figure business that he runs full-time with his wife. But of course, it didn’t start that way—and in fact it took a while to get going. So what about their first $1,000—how did they make that happen, what did it feel like, and what did they learn? Listen to today's episode to learn more...MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:
