My Journey in Online Business
My name is Jason Holloway, and my journey in online business started back in 2017 when I began working with my brother on his business, Scrap the 9 to 5. It was an affiliate marketing venture promoting online training, and within just three years, we hit seven figures.
During that time, I met so many new business owners trying to find their footing eager to succeed but struggling with building websites, setting up funnels, and handling the tech side of things. I started offering my help by building websites for them, but I always wanted to do more.
After moving on from Scrap the 9 to 5, my wife and I built our own successful online business, Uplevel Academy, a six-figure English tuition business. Through smart systems, automation, and keeping overheads low, we were able to work just 30 hours a week between us—while still making a great income.
