Hi, I'm Amy. I like minimalist online business and time management. Here's my story.In 2004, I started a lifestyle blog on a new, obscure platform called WordPress. I had zero blogging knowledge and spent countless hours googling HMTL and CSS tutorials. I was surprised to discover I enjoyed the technical part of blogging much more than the writing part.By 2010, after many requests to “pick my brain” about WordPress, I quit blogging about my life and wrote blogging how-to tutorials instead.As I went, I tried many things. I self published a book. I sold digital products. I mastered affiliate marketing. I built and ran an online community. I provided client services including web design, coaching, consulting and virtual assistance.Fast forward to 2013. I suspected an email newsletter would be a useful addition to my blog. It was a good call. The Useletter® went out weekly for 7 years.Along the way, I figured out how to generate a growing income while keeping things lean. I don’t like working 40+ hours a week running an online business empire. I prefer minimalist online business. Nimble. Easy to pivot. Low overhead. High profit margins. This mindset allowed me to retire in 2020, at te age of 46.
