Selling Our First Website

I have some exciting news to share today:

I sold a website!

Well, okay–Alex and I sold our first website together.

(Technically it’s our second website, but we don’t count our first failed website for obvious reasons.)

I’m so excited to share with you the journey of how we went from starting our first website, to finally deciding to sell it, and all the highs and lows along the way. 

If you’ve been following us at Create and Go for very long, or if you’ve taken any of our courses, then you’ve definitely heard us mention the blog we’re talking about today–Avocadu, our health and wellness blog.

When we started Avocadu, and during its peak, I never would have imagined I would end up selling it.

This website is truly my first business baby, and deciding to part with it was no easy task. 

Avocadu changed both of our lives forever, and launched us on a trajectory that we never would have followed if it weren’t for the financial freedom and success we gained through creating Avocadu.

It’s the reason we started Create and Go, and why I’m able to talk with all of you today, on this podcast. 

So join me today as I take a look back at this journey, and how it changed my life.

I’m also sharing some helpful tips and resources for those of you who might be thinking about buying or selling a blog, including our favorite marketplace for doing that.
