π£οΈπ€ TESTIMONIAL...
Kirsten and Clayton are fellow digital business owners, They live in Alberta, Canada π¨π¦ with their 2 young boys, Liam and Wyatt. Kirsten has spent the last 18 years in the aviation industry and Clayton works in software development, which typically is contractual employment. They began their journey as digital entrepreneurs almost 18 months ago and havenβt looked back.
Q. WHY DID YOU DECIDE TO VENTURE INTO THE ONLINE WORLD?
Clayton:
β³ More time with our boys without causing financial burdens! I worked away for the first 2.5 years of their lives and when I did come home, finances became way too tight. To allow us to avoid additional childcare costs, Kirsten would be up and gone at 5 am for work. If she was lucky she would see the boys for 2 to 3 hours in the evening during the week. We both felt we were missing so much precious time with the boys.
We needed another source of income, but working outside of the house would only take away more of minimal time we had with our boys. We decided to turn to the digital world to search for a passive income that would allow us to reduce our hours in our corporate jobs and spend more time with the boys.
Q. HOW HAS BEING A DIGITAL ENTREPRENEUR CHANGED YOUR LIFE?
Kirsten:
πΈ Financial Freedom and the gift of more quality time with our boys! Everyone knows how hard the aviation industry has been hit over the last 6 months. Even with 18 years of service, I was laid off in mid-May and in July was advised that I would be one of over 3k employees who would permanently lose their jobs. While in the moment the news was devastating, I quickly realized that because of our digital business, I no longer financially needed my job.
Today, I get to see our boys sleepy eyes as they wake up each morning, I get to share breakfast with them and walk them to school. I get to pick them up and share in the excitement of their daily adventures. My work schedule now revolves around my family rather than working my family into my corporate schedule.
Q. WAS LEARNING TO WORK ONLINE DIFFICULT?
Clayton:
π We knew we needed a change but the online world was so far out of our comfort zone. We always came back to one big scary questionβ¦ Where do we start? We had no business experience. While I develop software, I had limited knowledge of social media platforms and I love Kirsten, but she is the farthest thing from tech-savvy!
Our fears were put at ease from the moment we opened the training. We received step by step training, with videos and tutorials. We had a personal coach and mentor who guided us and a supportive community of like-minded business owners. We never once felt alone!
