If you’ve been dipping your toe into the ad space lately, you would have been hearing that a lot has changed.

In this episode, we...

Today, we want to talk about what it takes to build a sustainable business. One that is focused on making income for the long term, and some of the projects that we are focused on internally that we think are just a little bit different to what we see other online business owners spending their time and energy on. To continue with our analogy from last time where we talked about your “Tinder date"...
