Often when we hear the term "multiple revenue streams" we might think, having multiple businesses, investment properties, investing in stock, or joining a MLM.

Although I admit I'm a multi-passionate entrepreneur, I can honestly say, this is not usually the most efficient use of your time. Adding these types of revenue streams can make it more difficult when you're trying to get your primary business off the ground.

Today on the show, I'm talking about about how you can diversify the business you already have and ways to add additional revenue streams - in an easy and organic way.

We have some changes happening around here! Starting next week, we are kicking off a 4-week series where I have amazing creative entrepreneurs come in and share their stories. That got me thinking. If I am asking all of these other creative entrepreneurs to be vulnerable and share their journey, then I should probably be the first one to do the same.

So, here I am. Sharing my journey as a creative entrepreneur. I’m so excited to bring you my story today!
