Today’s guest is Skye McLain, a self-employed virtual assistant
who has a side hustle as a lifestyle blogger. In part one of my
interview with Skye, we talk about:
- The most important thing Skye did to get her first four virtual
assistant clients.
- The two things that helped Skye take the leap in starting her
own business.
- Why looking at what other people in your space are doing can
keep you stuck.
- Why “Perfection is the Enemy of Done”.
- Why Skye is grateful that she was fired from her day job.
- How Skye’s long-time hobby lifestyle blog turned into a side
hustle to her VA business.
- Skye’s breakdown of exactly how bloggers make money from her
perspective as a lifestyle blogger.
- The blogging monetization tactic that can make you the most
money.
- Why you can still make money online even if you’re not teaching
people how to make money online.
- The one thing that will help you start seeing results from
using affiliate links.
- Why being “authentic” and “transparent” isn’t a strategy.
And you’re not going to want to miss part two of my episode with
Skye as we get deep into topics like personal finance, self-worth
and giving a deeper meaning to lifestyle blogging.
