Accidental Entrepreneur: My Path to Business Owner
Manage episode 472610115 series 3524310
Picture me in London, juggling auditions while getting by on a few hundred quid from social media gigs—slinging posts on Instagram and Facebook to pay the rent. Then, in a gut-punch moment, I ditched the stage, sacked my agent, and bet everything on those scrappy side hustles. What started as a desperate cash grab exploded—half by dumb luck, half by diving into skills I had no right messing with, like cobbling together websites. (Pro tip: hire someone for that; I barely survived.)
In this episode I share the unfiltered scoop on how I stumbled from freelancing to running a full-blown agency. I’ll break it down: I tapped freelancers to expand the game—web design, SEO, the works—without faking expertise I didn’t have. That chaos somehow spawned a tight crew of 24 geeks. This isn’t a glossy fairy tale; it’s real, messy, and all about forging client bonds that last.
