My Business Has Been Franchised! (Preparation Met Opportunity)

Many Business Opportunities Online
I keep saying that there are many, many ways to start and grow an online business. Content & Affiliate Marketing, (what we are taught in Wealthy Affiliate), is just one of those ways.
It would be a great idea for you to play around with as many of those pathways as possible.
From Copywriting and Copy Editing to SEO and Social Media Management to AI Prompting and becoming a YouTuber.
It is all possible.
Build YOUR Brand
I was learning Copywriting for about two (2) years before I joined Wealthy Affiliate (WA) in October 2019.
The website that I chose to "practice" on was my professional firm's website. It resides in a somewhat challenging niche but I was persistent.
I defined my unique brand and I quietly marketed it on LinkedIn and through my Mailing List.

Little by little. Step by step. Each day doing a little more and stretching myself a bit further.

Then, during the 20's pandemic, I became a Certified Coach and started to develop personal transformation programs on Tony Robbins' and Dean Graziosi's Mastermind platform.
The Opportunity Arrived
Then, in January 2023, while commenting in one of the many LinkedIn Groups that I participate in, I received this message:

I politely responded to the young lady, explaining that I was not looking to turn my business into a franchise. She was persistent though.
In March 2023, I eventually agreed to have a Zoom call with one of her firm's Partners. Their business model piqued my interest and I agreed to have them "test drive" two of my programs in their markets.
After I returned from our Easter holidays, they reached out to say that the interest was overwhelming.
A Busy Q2 and Q3, 2023
Since April, we have had our heads down adapting the model and programs for Clients in new markets. Three of them, to begin with.
The legal side of things is not yet over but income generation is increasing faster than I could ever have planned.
One of the things I am trying to work out now is how to tie in WA as part of the franchise opportunity. It may be a long shot now but I think it is possible.
Change Your Script
Do not ever be afraid of making changes and trying new things. So much of what we are doing now is going to adapt further.
Do not think outside of the box.
Think like there is NO BOX, because, there isn't.
Remember, if you are not getting the results that you want . . . Change Your Script!
