🤔 ABOUT LOCATION REBEL 👇
For the past 14 years at www.locationrebel.com I've taught people just like you how to build a lifestyle business and become a digital nomad. There are a lot of ways we do this depending on your goals, skills and interests, but some of the most common businesses are built around freelance writing, niche sites, affiliate marketing and blogging.
Our primary goal is to help you get to the point where you're making $3-5k a month as quickly as possible, because after that? You have options.
My name is Sean Ogle, and I'm the founder of Location Rebel. I'm a location independent entrepreneur from Portland, Oregon and I travel 3-4 months out of the year and take my business with me wherever I go. On this channel you'll learn exactly how to build a similar business and do it from some pretty sweet destinations as well.

I NEED to make this happen. I've been a legal secretary for 24 years and it's sucking the life out of me. I'm an artist and writer at heart, and didn't go to college for it for personal reasons back in the day. Now, I've gotten a taste for writing business Bios/About us pages/marketing brochures for a couple friends, and I'm loving it!!! Please dear God, let me make this happen!!! I cannot stand working for lawyers another day...

As soon as you said bridge business and how you explained that it’s “for those who want more free time to spend time doing hobbies” is what I related to from the get-go. Because that’s exactly what I’m looking for. I want to spend more time doing outdoor activities, I don’t want to spend most of my life working for someone else in that way. And I feel like freelance writing for others is the way for me because I love reading and I love writing stories.

Landing on Sean's channel has been a life saver for me. I've been wanting to start a career in freelance writing and this channel just outlined everything out so clearly. Actually, step number 6 for me is huge because I didn't know exactly how to go about cold pitching in freelance writing. You simplified everything. and thanks for warning me about Upwork. No wonder I tried upwork sometime back send hundreds of proposals with minimal to no success. And it made me think that I can't make it in freelance writing. This channel has completely revamped my dream. Thanks sean!

@Dmeekification Жыл бұрын

Wow, this was really inspiring! I’ve been at Musician since I was a small child, I know so much about that, that I end up, talking myself into writing lyrics, or using my story telling skills towards that…But I’ve secretly wanted to be a writer since elementary school. Whether I’m at an amusement park, a concert, or even a date,😂 there’s always this inner narrative running, that I feel I need to express, but often don’t know where to put it. I would love to finally get this out of my system, and use it to benefit my life, (instead of just being a distraction, or a conversation with myself). Thanks!

I'm 55, and have just been made redundant (with a research and medical device background. How spooky is that, lol) so I'm signing up and putting time aside to see if freelance writing could be the answer to my digital nomad prayers :o)

I currently run a freelance illustration business and am looking to do a side-hustle in writing. The #1 thing I learned doing freelance illustration is that you really need to hunt people down who need art and offer yourself as the best option.
