How To Run A Successful Business While You Travel The World

Have you ever dreamed of traveling the world but you can’t because your job has you tied down or your bank balance just won’t allow it? If you have, rest assured you’re not alone. It’s the big challenge that comes with traveling. But the truth is, it’s never been easier.

Over the last 30 years, the internet has completely changed the way we work and the restrictions that normally come with a healthy salary. It has already allowed thousands of people to start their own companies that can be run from anywhere in the world. Sounds too good to be true right?

But that’s not even the half of it. The best thing about running a business online is that almost anything can be automated, giving you more time to enjoy doing the things you love. And you don’t have to be the next Richard Branson to do it either. Anyone can do it as long as they’ve got a computer and an internet connection.

Let me warn you, this isn’t one of those ‘get rich quick’ ideas. It takes some serious time and effort to build a company that can provide enough income to live off but if you work hard and persevere the mistakes and failures you encounter along the way, the rewards can be life changing.

Take me for example. My name is Charlie Centa and back in 2012 I was a failing journalism student in the UK working in a bar to try and make ends meet. I was stuck doing something I didn’t enjoy but I new that there was a world of possibilities out there. In 2013 I left university to start my own clothing brand. Needless to say, I was unprepared and within just a year it had failed miserably and I had to close down the company. It was then that I began researching the many ways to make money online.

After reading a few books and ecommerce blogs, in 2014 I eventually took the plunge and launched my own online store selling RC cars (I suggest you read this ebook if you want to find out why I chose to sell RC cars when I knew absolutely nothing about them). With just $200 and absolutely no computer knowledge whatsoever I set out on a journey to join the thousands of people successfully making money online.

The concept is simple, although it has to be properly executed. The company uses a drop shipping model which means our supplier ships directly to our customers with anonymous packaging. What does this mean? Well it means that we don’t have to stock items and we never purchase a product until it’s already been sold. Instead, what we do is provide immaculate service before and after purchase, detailed product descriptions and videos and informative guides and tutorials in our Learning Centre.

But that’s enough personal advertising from me. The important thing is that you realize that this is just one of the many of the ways to create a company that can be run from anywhere in the world. Heck, I’m writing this from a cafeteria in Madrid, Spain! Providing you have an internet connection it doesn’t matter where you are.

Why not even start a blog writing about your experiences as you travel. I recently launched a blog that talks about anything from festivals and fashion to travel and technology and it’s something I genuinely enjoy doing. All you have to do is build up a collection of articles that can be useful or interesting to people. Once you have an audience you can put ads and affiliate links in your posts and watch them make money for years and years to come. The more people visiting your website and the more articles you have, the more money you make.

But thats just the tip of the iceberg. There’s a whole world of money making ideas waiting for you to uncover.

So what are you waiting for? Start your research now and see if you too can follow your dreams to travel the world. Remember, it’s not easy but if you persevere it will change your life forever.
