Web design & SEO. My employer at the time needed a website and said “you do graphic design, make it!”… I didn’t even bother to correct him and just said ok! Haha.
Loved it ever since.
how has your SEO journey been? were you always in marketing from the start
Video projection - branded content / corporate / social media stuff. Got into it by talking my way into a production company as free labour back when that was legal. Worked at a night club to fund. Later got offered full time and stayed until I was ready to go freelance. 3 years freelancing and it was time to set up a company and hire staff. £1m turnover this year and it’s going well. Not as fun as it used to be though due to the high amounts of admin and management, where I used to just film and edit.
Right now I do retirement and love it.
I started in Jan 2022 when I was 58.
I got into it by working my ass off for 35 years. I started in office products and furniture sales, spent 27 years in telecom selling wan, cloud, professional services and the past 7 years I owned my own clean and restoration services company.
Retirement sounds like a nice activity. 😅
My family all advised against it for no real reason. I heard what will you do? You’re too young. You’ll be bored. Are you nuts? I think you’re making a mistake.
I haven’t had one single boring day. I’m busy doing “stuff.” I picked up new hobbies and days fly. The biggest surprise to everyone is how little TV I watch.
So what’s that “stuff” that you enjoy doing.
I have a passion for photography. I take pictures of everything and anything at all angles. I walk about 2 miles each day, I read a little. I enjoy researching investments, I collect coins; Australia Koala and China Panda coins. I flip small antiques. I restore vintage and antique furniture. In the warm weather, clip the bushes and maintain my small garden.
Thanks for sharing us your passion.
My husband and I have an awning and sign business. We met at another small business and he drug me kicking and screaming into a business. Overall, I like the work I do but it can be very overwhelming knowing the buck stops with me.
I have a fairly good size ATM business, been doing it for 15 years. I really enjoy it. Worked for a bank deploying ATMs prior and figured I could do it for myself. Everyone thinks it’s a passive business, but to scale it does take work. My only regret is, 90% of my income comes from that one business - I should have diversified, which I’m trying to do now.
