1. E-commerce
This means that customers buy directly from a website
This could work for you by creating seller profiles on established e-commerce websites -like Amazon, eBay or Aliexpress. Another approach may be to create a website for yourself and accept payments in exchange for your products or service. Websites for dropshipping also fall into this category.

3. Subscription
This means users pay to access all or part of that content. This is popular among news sites -like the Wall Street Journal and The Financial Times. And creatives -with websites like Skillshare, Patreon.
One key thing to note is that a business can have two or all of these business models. But as an entrepreneur, it’s safe to stick with clarity and focus on one for a start, you can then expand later.

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
