Building a digital marketing agency isn’t easy — and anyone who tells you otherwise hasn’t done it long enough.

In this video, I break down what it really takes to build and run a successful agency based on my own experience running a high-ticket ecommerce agency. We’ll talk about why communication matters more than anything, how SOPs and virtual assistants allow you to scale, and why you should master a business model yourself before offering it as a service.

I also cover tools, systems, hiring strategies, sales funnels, automation, and the mindset required to stay consistent long term.

If you want to build an agency the right way — without burning clients or yourself — this video will give you the real framework.

So you want the digital nomad lifestyle… but you’re starting from zero and you’re overwhelmed by all the options. In this video I break down what it actually takes to become a digital nomad, how to choose the right business model based on your personality, and how to structure your day so you can work consistently while still living your life.

I’m sharing what’s been working for me as I travel, run client work, and build content systems that publish across YouTube, podcast platforms, email, and shorts. The goal is simple: build income that can replace your 9–5, then learn how to travel sustainably (slow travel), stay productive, and keep your momentum.

In this video you’ll learn:

How to avoid information overload and choose a path

How to structure your day when you’re not working a 9–5 anymore

Business models that work for extroverts vs introverts

Why automations matter if you want to publish consistently

How to think about “niche” and why focused projects grow faster

What NOT to do when hiring VAs (and how to build an A-player team)

How slow travel works and what to expect when you’re living out of a suitcase

If you’re trying to build a location-independent income, start by picking ONE model and committing to consistent daily work. That’s the difference between “dreaming about it” and actually living it.

What are the best cities for digital nomads if you actually want to build a real, sustainable online income and not just “travel forever”?

In this video, I break down the best digital nomad cities based on over 10 years of real-world experience running location-independent businesses like high-ticket dropshipping, ecommerce services, and online consulting.

I share what actually works, what sounds good online but breaks down in real life, and how different cities affect your productivity, income, lifestyle, and long-term plans.

Cities discussed in this video:

Chiang Mai – low cost of living, strong nomad community, quiet and focused

Bangkok – big city energy, great nightlife, strong skate and coworking scene

Bali – massive digital nomad hub with tradeoffs most people ignore

Ho Chi Minh City and Kuala Lumpur – underrated options

We also cover:

What kind of online income you actually need to be a digital nomad

Dropshipping vs services vs remote work

Why time zones matter more than people admit

Visa realities no one prepares you for

Why many nomads eventually choose a home base

How different life chapters change the “best” city for you

If you’re serious about building a location-independent business and not just chasing Instagram aesthetics, this video will save you years of trial and error.
