If you don’t have it all figured out, is it okay to show up anyway?
This was the question Megan Hogan wanted to ask when she gifted herself a consult with Gary Vaynerchuk for her 30th birthday. Her takeaway was this: It’s okay to learn out loud. Document the journey instead of pretending your business is bigger than it really is.
As a military spouse, Megan found herself starting and stopping various businesses because she knew moving was only a matter of time. She shares her experience of selling refinished furniture to flipping smart thermostats to becoming a home chef.
Ultimately, Megan started again and decided to put down roots. First working for tacos and testimonials to build her portfolio before developing revenue, then opening The Annex in Virginia Beach.
