Over the last 15 years, I’ve done a lot of stuff online that didn’t pay off.
I wish I’d known at the beginning what would work and what wouldn’t, and it would have saved a whole lot of effort. 🤣
But no one has a crystal ball for that.
So was it worth it?
Absolutely!
All the wrong turnings are worth taking to find the right ones.
And I still try new things, even now; it keeps business interesting (and growing)!
So don’t worry about whether your current business idea will work or not.
That doesn’t matter in the long run.
It’s just one idea of the many I hope you’ll try in the lifetime of your business.
Just keep pursuing those ideas and never stop and and you’ll be golden. 💖

NEW! GET A GORGEOUS WEBSITE IN NO TIME!
If you’re struggling to make a simple website to represent your business and/or don’t want the hassle of dealing with (and paying for) WordPress hosting, seriously consider hosting your site on Canva.
It’s super easy to set up and it’s easy to make a great looking website in an hour or two.
And with Christina’s Canva template toolkit and video instructions, it’s even easier.
Here’s an example site using one of Christina’s templates.
Gorgeous right?
Now Canva is not for you if you want to blog or put a multi-product shop on your site. It’s for simple one page sites which you can create for your business, for a product, or for a particular promo.
But I can see tons of uses for these to create special pages quickly especially as you can add clickable links to your autoresponder or shopping cart!
How about the next time you want to take part in a bundle and you have nothing?
Christina even gave me a coupon for her toolkit to take the price right down.
Just $19 with coupon code JANSPECIAL
