Digital Entrepreneur: How to Build a Profitable Online Business

Digital Entrepreneur

Discover practical job ideas and career insights in digital entrepreneurship.

What if you could learn a practical web skill over a single weekend, build a simple website for a local business, and turn it into steady monthly income?

In this episode, we sit down with Matt Raad to break down a realistic path from beginner to profitable digital entrepreneurship. We talk about building websites for local businesses, creating income-producing digital assets, and growing a service-based online business from home—without e-commerce headaches, technical overload, or large upfront investment.

You’ll hear real-world case studies, including:
• A couple who left burnout careers and earned $160,000 in their first year
• A FIFO worker making $5,000+ on off weeks by offering AI automation services
• A stay-at-home mom with limited English who turned free starter websites into a family business over time

If you’re searching for a side hustle, a work-from-home business, or a practical way to make money online using web skills, this episode is a must-listen.

About the host: Mirav Ozeri has always been drawn to storytelling and journalism, especially the stories of everyday people.

In the 90’s She founded her own video production company, producing, directing, and editing documentaries and videos for political organizations which led to a 17-year career at CBS News, where she served as a producer/editor, helped launch CBS MarketWatch, and later worked as a senior editor and segment producer until the program was acquired by Dow Jones.

During her years at CBS, Mirav developed and produced a television pilot built around a simple idea: giving people an honest look at what different careers are really like. Although the pilot was never picked up, the concept stayed with her. Years later, she brought it back as How Much Can I Make?, a podcast that explores real jobs, real stories, and the many paths people take to build a career.
