    Wow I feel old. I was 27 in 2008. Well done for starting a small business.

      I started my small pet sitting business in 2011. When I was 30. I had no money as I had just been made redundant suddenly for the 2nd time. In the credit crunch financial crisis, no jobs around then and the ones I applied for I either didn't get an interview or someone a bit older and more experienced than me got the job. So I went back to babysitting and then got asked to pet sit for one of those families. My business was hit hard by the pandemic and I just about got through it. I'm still going but it's completely changed and people have cut back on what they will spend on for pet care. I lost a 3rd of my business. As my dog walking side of it completely dropped away as people moved away, got family or neighbours to do it for free or undercutting me. Even though I was at a midrange affordable price for a reason. To make sure that the people with lower budgets could still afford me. I still have pet sitting and per daycare customers and new ones too. Before the pandemic I was close to being able to employ someone to help with pet sitting or dog walking. But now I can't afford to do that incase I don't have enough work to share out. It would be part time for that person but I wanted to be able to give them enough hrs to make it viable for them and me. Now I have had to make hard decisions and turn down work that would take me away from town for too long as I have to keep my cleaning jobs going too.

      There is nothing wrong for having enough income to travel. If I was rich I would have taken my children to travel the world too. I guess if we want the same we could also find ways to have high income instead 😊we can do it too!

    Thank goodness you brought this up! Truly, investing has changed my perspective on how one can succeed in life; working multiple jobs isn't the optimal way to attain financial freedom and unfortunately, we discover this later in life. Currently earn as much as 10 grand weekly and this has improved my financial life. Great piece!.

      What people do not understand is that you can't just put things in an Etsy store or on TikTok and make money. Learn about SEO. SEO is everything in the online world. Then in a couple of years when you learn about SEO, if you want to add SEO to your Etsy store and or your TikTok it will have a much better chance at doing well. Even this video you just watched has SEO on the back end of it. The internet revolves around SEO. Good luck and keep us updated!

Been discouraged by a lot of people, mostly people who I thought were friends. Hearing your story made want to try and sell my crochet items again.
