Hi, my name is Alen, I am a 42 year old father of two beautiful kids. I fell into the online world having had zero experience in this industry and having never worked on camera.
I started looking for opportunities to do something else after the company I worked for in finance started to lay off staff almost on a quarterly basis and I didn’t want to start looking for another job.
Thankfully Greg and I are close family friends and he was already in the online scene so he showed me what he was doing with affiliate marketing, YouTube, email marketing short form content etc. and from there I learnt as much as I could about affiliate marketing and email marketing and I then created my own YouTube channel called Smart Money Tactics which is in the make money online niche.
It has been almost 5 years since I started my first YouTube channel, and after 2 years I was able to leave my 9 – 5 job, my wife also left her 9 – 5 and now helps me with our online business.
That channel now has over 400k subscribers, I have also started another YouTube channel called Smart Video Tactics which has over 60k subscribers. Combined, these channels make well over $300k a year in YouTube ad revenue.
