As we kick off 2019, many people have included as part of their New Year’s Resolutions: to make more money. Now if you’re one of those people, have you asked yourself: How do I go about making more money? Let me ask you this: Do have a side hustle? Do you have multiple steams of income? Do you have a hobby or a passion that you’ve always felt could turn into a small business? Most people work 9 to 5 jobs and have little time to do much else, let alone have time to turn your passions or hobbies into a side hustle. My guest on this episode, Eric Rosenberg, was one of those people who started his career like everyone else. He went to business school, graduated, and got a job at a bank. A short while later, after deciding this particular bank wasn't for him and spending a few months as a restaurant server, he jumped into corporate finance and accounting for the next 10 years. While working a full time job, Eric started freelancing as a blogger and slowly building income. He started making small profits at the time, but then he started getting $25 and $35 per article on a regular basis. And then his income grew exponentially, earning $40,000 per year on this side hustle in 2015. So in 2016, with a 6 month old baby and stay-at-home wife, he quit his high paying, stable job in finance to write blog posts from home. This was a huge and scary risk, yes, but it turned out to be the right decision. He went from a part time blogger to a full time blogger. Now, as a freelancer earning a six-figure income, living the lifestyle he had always wanted, he is focusing on building his own brand all while continuing to earn big from my diverse client base. I love Eric’s mantra as it relates to work life balance which is “Live to live, not live to work.” Were you inspired by Eric? Are you inspired to go FIND YOUR ICE CREAM? I know I am!
