I Coudn’t Wait to Escape from the Corporate World.
When I was an insignificant cog in a giant corporate machine, all I dreamed about was having my own business and having control over working on projects I cared about. I wanted to build a one-person business without a capricious boss who cared only about the next ‘win.’
I learned the hard way - by being laid off or having my ‘position eliminated’ — corporate-speak for being fired without cause— five times in my career. As my experience grew, so did my salary, and when economic trends were challenging, I was first on the chopping block.
The workplace is changing. Fewer young people are opting for corporate work in favor of creating something meaningful like a one-person business that makes a difference in people’s lives and doesn’t simply sell the latest widget for a corporate behemoth.
Is there anything you can do to escape while you still can? Yes, there is. You can start small while you’re still working your 9-5 and build the foundation for a Tiny Little Empire.
I was laid off five times by corporate employers and always without notice. Sometimes, even without severance pay. Fuck them.
What’s a Tiny Little Empire?
A Tiny Little Empire (TLE) is a one-person business that lives inside your laptop.
It allows you to work 2-3 hours/day max and brings in the supplemental income you need, all by identifying, packaging, and sharing the skills and expertise you already possess.
Just think…your TLE could be your ticket to a solvent retirement, extra monthly cash, or (if you’re still working and hate it) a replacement for your current job.
It might be how you pay for Junior’s orthodontics or how you fund your travel or golf vacations.
I’ve built a Tiny Little Empire with email courses based on the skills and expertise honed over my career, and I can teach you to do the same. Getting the first two chapters of my book, Tiny Little Empire, is the first step.
