Joel has been working as a solo entrepreneur since 2013 and has used his skills in the fields of animation and video production to start his own business, JumpStartVideo.net. In just a few short years it grew from a side job in the corner of his bedroom to a thriving business that now generates 5 figures a month, and I did all this through good ol’ fashion hustle and online gig platforms like Fiverr.com where he is a top-rated seller an award-winning SUPER SELLER. Our conversation will be even more relevant given the global pandemic that the world is experiencing right now.

“The internet and online communication is the window into your world – but real life, in person communication / connection is the door.” – ― Rasheed Ogunlaru
Even amidst the chaos that is happening around the world, there is never a better time to be alive than it is today. The numerous opportunities that abound far outweigh any set back we could ever face.
On this episode of The Entrepreneurial You podcast, Joel Young shares his online entrepreneurial journey, providing insight into some of the opportunities that we can tap into as we “coronavirus-proof” our businesses.
Here is a snippet of what Joel shared:
“Something I try to remind myself of everyday’s that I live in one of the most accessible and, and dynamic times in the history of humanity. And so I think we sometimes lose that in the middle of all this stuff because we just think about what we’ve lost or what we’re losing or, or the difficulties in front of us. And we forget about the opportunities. And to me, and I gave this advice, advice to my YouTube audience just yesterday, to me, there’s no better time than when the world world shuts down, to hit the gas, start something new or press forward hard on something you’re already doing. Because right now is a time when many people are either working less working differently and trying trying to figure it out, or maybe not working at all because either they can’t or they’re just not sure what to do. So that’s an opportunity for people who have real ambition and drive to do something, maybe new do something more. This is a time when they’re faced with probably more free time than they’ve ever had before.”
