If I Knew Then: Online Entrepreneurs Reflect On What They Would Do Differently

Diving into the vibrant, ever-evolving world of online entrepreneurship, it’s a realm where creativity meets opportunity, challenges shape leaders, and every setback paves the way for groundbreaking innovations. As we head out on this journey, I asked my fellow entrepreneurs to ponder on a question that ignites curiosity and fuels growth:

“If you were to start your online entrepreneurial venture from scratch today, what would you do differently?”

This question isn’t just a gateway to introspection but an open invitation to share their story, lessons learned, and the wisdom garnered along the way.

Whether it’s tweaking your business model, refining your marketing strategies, or simply adopting a different mindset, every insight is a beacon for aspiring entrepreneurs navigating their own paths:

1. Sadie Smiley: Everyone says “charge your worth” but I’m not for sale. I make all of my programs financially accessible and I lead with my heart. I wish I had someone to follow that led in the same way. http://passiveincomepathways.com
2. Julie Burt Nichols: Charge what I’m worth from the start. Even with 13 years experience in my field, I felt like I needed to charge less because I was just starting out on my own. It took me a long time to believe that I was worth more than what I was charging. and usually those clients do you work for for little to no money are the hardest to please because they don’t value what you’re doing for them. It’s a lose-lose.  julienicholsmarketing.com
