Crystal, a non-techie, turns her passion for cooking into a successful online business. It all started with some emails to friends about easy dinner ideas. Now this WAHM, with four teenage kids all in sports, loves how she can work whenever and wherever she wants.
“While I loved my career when I was single, I found the stress of working long hours when I had small children was very taxing. I no longer feel stressed when one of my kids needs to stay home from school. I can take care of them and still work on my business. I wake up excited every morning. There is nothing like the sense of accomplishment that I feel when I learn something new or master a new skill.”

Gerhild Fulson Solo Build It! Review
JustLikeOma.com
“How hard can it be?” Gerhild Fulson thought when she volunteered to build a web presence for the ministry she and her husband had founded in Germany. She chose a recipe site as her “training ground.”
A few years into her webmaster career, a lightbulb went off in her head. Her recipe site had enough business potential to raise all necessary fundings for their ministry — if she only treated it as a business.
Once she switched her mindset from “building a website” to “building a business,” profits started to soar. She redesigned and rebranded her web presence, grew a massive following on Facebook and Pinterest, added a store, and is now selling more digital cookbooks than ever before. She also started selling print-on-demand items, like T-shirts and mugs.
“Most importantly, since I really do enjoy all that I do, I’m just going to keep on doing it, together with my hubby. With an online business, as long as there’s internet, there’s no telling where we’ll go.”
“The alternative? Since I’ll soon be 70 and hubby 80, should we be sitting in those proverbial rocking chairs? I think not.”
