About me
I studied marketing at the university and then worked for several years ‘as you do’ at various companies: from large traditional ones to smaller, hipster startups. Until I finally came to the conclusion: I want to start my own business. And so I quit my last job in October 2018.
At the moment I write for companies, I sell e-books at my wine website and I create online courses about online marketing (all in Dutch). Through this website I show you my entrepreneurial journey. Maybe you are inspired to start your own business too – if that’s what you want – or you just enjoy reading it. In any case, you are very welcome.
