If every time when I got a question “How do you work & travel?”, “How did you start your online business?”, “Hey I saw you in the community – what do you think about XYZ course?”..if every time I would get a new follower on IG – I would be over 10K (and would have a “Swipe Up” thingy😂).

But in all seriousness – people reaching out and asking for advice about “work from home” is a clear indication that working remotely and being a “digital nomad” is on the rise.

It took me nearly 7 years to understand how to “work from home”

Yes, exactly.
There’s SO MUCH information out there that if you don’t have dedicated guidance 
it is super easy to get overwhelmed with everything and feel lost about where to get started and how do people actually work & travel the world?

I was digging Youtube, blogs, joining random webinars – just hoping that one day I’ll understand (mind you I had zero people in my physical or online environment who would be working online), so it never even crossed my mind to ask somebody

Until one day – I saw a FB ad, with 2 girls – sipping coconuts on the beach and working from their laptops and yes, it was Bucketlist Bombshells ad 🙏

 

Who are Bucketlist Bombshells?

If you’re hearing about BB Academy for the first time..

It’s a platform with online courses for women to help them start their online service-based businesses – created by Cassie & Shay.

 

When I saw their ad on FB and went through the “Discovery process” to help me understand how “making money online” works and what are their skills I need – it was a no brainer that service-based business is one of the fastest ways to get started, so I signed up for their Tech Skill course

 

Tech Skills Course

Basically this course teaches you a variety of different online skills such as:
✔️Blog management
✔️Email marketing
✔️How to build a website
✔️Social media management
✔️Webinar set up
…and I can go on & on.
You then basically can decide what resonates with you the most and be a Virtual Assistant (VA) for other online entrepreneurs or you can pick just one skill (as I did) and be an expert in a specific area – totally up to you!

What I love about the Tech Skill course it’s that it doesn’t matter if you offer all of the skills from the course as your service or not – it helped me enormously to build my own business.

Majority of the time, in the beginning, your business will be a one-woman show, so it’s amazing that you always have access to the course to which you can refer & watch how to do the techy even for your own business (even 2+ years later – I go back to the course when I need to set something up in my business) and I know it’s the latest info because girls constantly update their courses.

 

Is It Worth The Investment?

If you have made it this far into this post – I think it’s clear that I recommend Bucketlist Bombshells courses 150%, if it’s not them – you wouldn’t be reading this post right now and God knows if  I would be working online at all..

So yes – if you have been feeling the pull to sign up, just do it!
Even if you think “Oh I don’t want to be an Assistant for the rest of my life” – you don’t have to!
These courses are one of the fastest & easiest way to start generating money online and be your own location independent boss – later you can transition, start new businesses – the world is your oyster!

For example, I started in the beginning as VA doing Email marketing, Blog management, and Web design, but soon I understood that building websites is not what I enjoyed doing and my clients asked me if I could do Pinterest marketing for them.
At the time I had NO IDEA about how to use Pinterest to market your business.

Thankfully social media management is part of the Tech Skills course and Cassie & Shay were also teaching how to use Pinterest for business purposes, so without needing to search for a new course or other information – I knew exactly where to look for help with Pinterest management and quickly could understand if this is something I can do and could help my clients with.

 

Summary

Keep in mind – I started with the “Tech Skill” course and then also took the “Work & Travel” course – BB Academy also has the “Design Skills” course if you’re more of a creative person.

Also, note – Tech & Design courses are skill courses – they teach how to do the service.
If you feel you have a skill already that you’re ready to take online – I suggest you look into the
“Work & Travel” course as this is the course that teaches you how to actually build the business, land clients, business processes and so on!

I find it super helpful because some of us are starting from complete scratch in an online world and do need support in learning the skills first when others already might have skills, but just need to understand how to build a business out of it and combine it with travel.

By taking both courses – I knew I’m following proven strategies without “throwing spaghetti at the wall” and hoping that something will work – trust me I have done that for 7 years before and I’m telling you – you’ll save so much more, time & energy by actually getting the course.

Think about it – when we want to get a job we are required to go to college – why?
Because it’s obvious we need to learn information that is needed and we learn it form people who have the answers. The online world is no different.

I hope you found this blog post helpful and I wish you all the best with starting your online business. Yes, it feels scary at the beginning, but once you start it’s way easier than you think – trust me!

If you’re ready to take the first step toward creating life on your terms – Cassie & Shay have this awesome masterclass that will help you get started.

 

To your success
Kristina

P.S. Besides the immense value that you’re getting from the courses itself – you get access to BB community – I’m forever grateful for that as I have made lots of friendships & connections thanks to that, which made my online business & travel so much fun!
