#863 How One Side Project Built a Ten-Year Business
About this episode
Hannah Wilnau shares how a side project evolved into a successful ten-year business.
This one's a bit of a TMBA throwback — a story about how to leverage the skills you already have to build a business and life that fits your goals. Hannah Wilnau co-owns Wilnau Design, a web design and digital marketing agency serving independent financial advisors — fully remote, built over ten years alongside her husband and co-founder Greg. It started with a side project she almost didn't do. That one project became her first client, which became a referral, which became a ten-year business. In this conversation: the specific savings number she and Greg used to decide when to make the leap, how she thinks about niche selection and why the right niche should align with the life you want to build, and how she's now engineering a sale — and what the financial discipline that requires looks like day to day.
