This week’s inspiring teacherpreneur journey is from Ashley DiMercurio of Your Reading Tutor!Ashley is a certified Reading Interventionist, teacher and tutor mentor, podcaster, wife, and homeschooling mom to two beautiful children. She scaled her part-time business into a full-time income through multiple income streams, including an online tutoring business and online virtual summit. She’s been a featured presenter for several online events, and even launched The Reading Project podcast to help more families. Her ultimate goal is to show educators the possibilities beyond the classroom. In this episode, we chat all about Ashley’s story of leaving teaching and pursuing her first online business in network marketing. After finding success in the online space, she decided to pivot and start her own online tutoring business. She even created her own virtual online summit, Teachers Make Money Online, where she’s been able to collaborate and network with other educators. This has allowed her to really show them what’s possible when it comes to growing a business in the online space! We also dive into the importance of ‘know, like, trust’, which Ashley deems crucial for business success.  Ashley has not been afraid to try new things on her entrepreneurial journey. All along, she’s understood the value of personal connection with others. While building your online presence takes time, building connections really is the key to a solid marketing strategy.I hope you enjoy this chat as much as I did!Connect with Ashley:IG: @yourreadingtutor | @ashley_dimercurioWebsite: www.yourreadingtutor.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCeVxy3ZysLRcVKozMy3xHqQFreebie: Building an Online Presence for Edupreneurs https://yourreadingtutoronline-gmail-com.ck.page/8f12b8e136Additional Resources Mentioned:The Compound Effect by Darren Hardy  Market Scale Grow - Links & Resources:FREE audience audit call → marketscalegrow.com/audienceauditDream List Essentials Facebook Ads Course (opening end of January 2023) → http://marketscalegrow.com/dlewaitlistFree download → Facebook Ad Targeting Groups___Find me on Instagram @heyitsjenzaiaEmail Me: hello@jenzaiadimartile.comJoin the Facebook community The Market, Scale, Grow Community
