Hi, I'm Amy. I like minimalist online business and time management. I've been a content creator for 20 years. I'm best known for my email newsletter (the Useletter®) which I sent weekly from 2013-2021. In it, I curated bite-sized tips about making money online, marketing and blogging.

My story

2004 - I started a lifestyle blog on WordPress. I had no prior computer or blogging experience and spent countless hours googling things like HTML and CSS. I was surprised to discover I enjoyed the business and technical parts of blogging much more than the writing part.2010 - After many requests to “pick my brain" about technical things, I quit blogging about my life and began writing easy-to-follow blogging tutorials instead. Along the way I tried many things. I self published a book. I sold digital products. I learned affiliate marketing. I built and ran an online community. I provided client services including web design, coaching, consulting and virtual assistance.2013 - I saw the potential of email newsletters and started one. I sent the Useletter® weekly for 7 years. I figured out how to generate a growing income while keeping things lean. I didn't want to work 40+ hours a week running an online business empire. I like simple, nimble, easy to pivot, low overhead, high profit margins.2021 - My love for minimalist online business paid off. My husband and I reached FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early) in 2021. It was a fantastic run. Thank you to all who followed along!
