Side Hustle to Digital Agency: How to Build a Profitable Online Business

Digital Entrepreneur

Discover practical job ideas and career insights in digital entrepreneurship.

What if you could learn a practical web skill over a single weekend, build a simple website for a local business, and turn it into steady monthly income?

In this episode, we sit down with Matt Raad to break down a realistic path from beginner to profitable digital entrepreneurship. We talk about building websites for local businesses, creating income-producing digital assets, and growing a service-based online business from home—without e-commerce headaches, technical overload, or large upfront investment.

You’ll hear real-world case studies, including:
• A couple who left burnout careers and earned $160,000 in their first year
• A FIFO worker making $5,000+ on off weeks by offering AI automation services
• A stay-at-home mom with limited English who turned free starter websites into a family business over time

If you’re searching for a side hustle, a work-from-home business, or a practical way to make money online using web skills, this episode is a must-listen.
