In a podcast episode with Jane Lu, Nick Bell, a mentor on Shark Tank Australia, shared his experience of launching a digital marketing side hustle. Starting from his bedroom, he cold-called businesses across multiple Australian cities, which resulted in receiving a $10,000 cheque just three days into his new venture. He discussed the importance of outsourcing work to manage his growing demands and revealed how the unexpected financial success catalyzed rapid growth for his business.
I started a side hustle, which was digital marketing from my bedroom. And, thankfully, within three days, someone sent me a cheque for $10,000. I was like, oh, here we go.
And I'd choose an industry every single day. So I... could sell, but I couldn't do the work. So I would do the account management, do the finance, do the sales, and then I would outsource the work to India initially.
So after that, when I earned some capital, I hired people. Before that, I started it from my bedroom.
Got the money. Things just went crazy. So, yeah, it was completely unexpected.
