My magazine venture

[MayaMagpie]

Hello Fastlaners,

This is not a traditional progress thread, more maybe like a brain dump... Please be kind!

So... I love hearing other entrepreneurs' stories, how they started, what they learnt, what their plans are, and I know that others do, too. That's why I started a digital magazine where I interview solopreneurs who are happy to share their stories. Indeed, I am happy to say that our very own @PaulRobert agreed to talk to me about TieMags. Thanks again, Paul!

My magazine is called SoloPursuits, it's a monthly pdf that I sell on my website. The first issue came out on the 1st of August and was positively received by the handful of people that read it.

Other than Paul, it features a lovely lady who sells jewellery on Shopify, a guy who launched his business within three days after getting an idea off reddit and a few more awesome solopreneurs as well as a couple of articles.

What I do is interview down-to-earth people, people that we all can relate to, as opposed to million dollar start-ups from Silicon Valley with their angel investors etc.

If you would like to take a look at the mag, you are more than welcome to download the first issue here.

If you feel extra generous and think you have a good story to tell that you would like to share, just let me know. I'm always looking for material - can't promise much in terms of exposure just yet, but I will do whatever I can to make it worthwhile to you.

I will update this thread from time to time and share my thoughts and bits of progress.

Thanks for reading!
