  • Episode 7: Transition Your Side Hustle Into A Permanent Full Time Business - With Special Guest Speaker Jonathan Mansilla

    Thanks for tuning into episode 7 of Clarity Generates Confidence where we welcome a special guest into our series, Jonathan Mansilla. Jonathan is the owner of JONY STUDIOS which is a client-focused recording studio offering audio/ video production, podcasting and marketing services. Fun fact, JONY Studios is also where we happen to record, edit, and re-master our podcast series.

    We brought Jonathan in today to help bring a fresh perspective on turning a side hustle into a full-time business, and from experience, he understands that it takes a lot of work. But many of us get stuck on the details and I’ve seen people fail because of the overwhelm of it all. My #1 tip is to make sure that you have enough money in the bank to provide plenty of runway for your side hustle. The worst thing that you can possibly do is make business decisions based on the money.  So make sure you have enough saved up and purchase the right tools that will allow you to succeed. 

    So sit back, relax, and enjoy this episode. Hopefully it will help you to gain some first hand knowledge on turning your side hustle into a full time business.
