is Lily cha I am a mother of five um I live in Oregon USA I work in the healthcare industry and um I um also a digital business owner so I own this page and so um thank you so much for joining us tonight I have invited a special guest all the way from Washington State who is my neighbor welcome Serena and thank you for accepting my invitation um for having me on a busy um evening but um anyway um I will give you um time to introduce yourself and just you know tell us where you're from what you do um and from there yeah first of all thank you for having me and I'm you know uh so happy to meet you first time uh it's amazing that we both are in this business for long and this is the first time we are meeting and talking actually yes so excited um and um uh yeah for people that are on your page um I'm Serena I am a former Canadian citizen uh and I moved to USA like three years ago uh due to marriage and uh um back in um back in Canada I was in retail for so many years over 22 years and I had my own gas station and convenience stores and you know kind of you can say uh offline business um and when I moved to USA uh you know I was uh you know there is a duration of the time period that we go through the immigration and you know we we are not able to work so I I had enough time to think about what what is it that I want to do and uh I don't know uh this covet was a blessing in the sky for me or not so it gives me enough time to think about what I want to do and uh um you know looking at the pandemic and all that stuff uh I decided not to start an offline business again and uh you know I turn my uh you know Direction in this online business and of course at the same time I was studying for real estate broker I'm a real estate broker as well in Washington state and yeah and that's all about me the long story but I made it short wow welcome welcome to the United States yeah I know it's it it takes some adjustment to you know when you would um move from one country to another you know I totally I totally um understand that because you know when my parent brought me to the United States I was so little and um it's yeah it's totally changed my life too um you know you start to adjust to the new people the new you know the language barriers and you know so many things you know but um I'm grateful to be here yeah yeah thanks to my parents that you know they brought me here so I'm grateful for that so um and you are in this business too so um Serena uh tell a little bit why what's your reasons why you you know you decide to um make a move to to become a digital business owner um after all those years of working as a retail and you know yeah owning your own store and gas station and all that [Music] first thing that hit my mind to think that the you know this offline business um you know kind of uh you know check the offline business and online business together and look at the pros and cons of both of them and and then you know when I looked at the uh the um and the offline business after like you know uh six months of not being in in the offline business and I I then realized that the it's a lot of headache a lot of things that you know at that time when I was in the business I I didn't realize it like for example you know I was working uh so hard like literally I was for so many years I was working like seven days and I can say easily 60 16 hours was like my daily routine it was like so easy for me sometimes even 20 hours there was some days that I if like I'm not exaggerating I work 24 hours like without even sleeping I was continuously working and then you know staff issues they call in sick the vendors issue the theft issue customer issues so many different issues that I can't even uh say it like I have to keep on going on and on but um and then and then I realized that this is the pandemic and if something like this happened you know you're in the pandemic if you notice there was a lot of businesses that were offline and they literally bankrupted right so that's why it really hit my mind so hard to think about something uh um like I I was so passionate about real estate to be honest because somebody was pushing me so hard for since I was in Winnipeg and they said you are so perfect for real estate and I had that in my mind that I want to be a real estate broker but then I wanted to have a plan B beside that you know because you never know uh you know today um just just take an example of this market right now is so slow when it comes to real estate you know people they don't want to buy houses people don't want to sell their house so things like this happen in life that make you think about what you want to do on long-term in your life and one of the main main reason that I decided to do this online business was traveling because my husband is an engineer and he travels a lot and you know we were like newly married and we wanted to spend more time with each other so uh so this was this was the only uh you know uh business that I could do so that I can travel with him uh I was uh just before I uh we turned on this video I was telling Lily that I I'm traveling with my husband we are in North Carolina right now we are in a two-week trip he's working on his business and I'm traveling with him and I'm working on my online business nice nice the flexibility huh wow I love that yes yes you can take it with you everywhere you go you know and it's Global so you know it makes makes life more convenient I I totally agree that and yeah I I resonate with you too because you know working in the healthcare um you I have a strict schedule that you know you you have to be there and when when someone call in sick you have um even though it it's your day off but you know if they needed me and to be there I I have to be there you know and so um and not just that but I live far from home uh my work it's a long commute for me so you know I pretty much gone the whole day um makes it really hard for me to you know sign my kids to you know join after school activities to do things you know and so um even you know even to to be there for them because I you know all my older kids there are um and they're young adults but you know I still have a 10 years old um daughter who still need my care and you know be there for her so it makes it really tough um not having the flexibility you know that you can you know work from home or you can you know just so that you can have more time for your family to care for them to to do other things that you know you would be able to do like a normal a normal life you know but um yes and I I I'm just so grateful to have found this yes I I totally agree with you so I know that you talk about how can you share a little bit how is your regular uh you know how your regular um business different from you know the business that now we're doing um compared to that um how is that different uh like my convenience stores business with the online business uh well uh a lot different it's like literally like a lot different I can say um as I was uh telling earlier um uh too much stress in offline business uh because you know even though uh like I was my own boss I didn't have any boss to report to um but you know uh issues that the employees have every single day you know like they don't want to come to work they want to come sick they are coming late they want race they want this so the their kids are sick so you know we had to put up with it because at the end of the day it's our business so and then if I don't care about my business who's gonna think care right right um and another issue I can say with the having an offline business is I was stuck I was literally stuck because I can say it was my fault because um I was always against having a partner in a business because uh you know I wanted to be free to be able to take my own decisions myself um so if you don't have a partner in your business offline business uh you literally have to do everything by yourself you can't take a vacation um and you're all by yourself that was another big issue versus my online business that uh you know I I can literally work whenever I want I like now I'm in the hotel I work early in the morning I'm an early bird I I get up like at five o'clock in the morning I open my laptop I'm working on my online business and then during the day I game you know I dropped my husband to his work and come back and go and go around and do my you know window window shoppings and well I like to meet people uh um one downside downside to this business is you know this business you just do it by yourself you don't meet too many people outside even though you meet it like I'm meeting people nice people like you on social media but then there is no one that you meet face to face right so um I love meeting people face to face that there's a downside with that so yeah a lot of uh good things uh you know I'm My Own Boss and it's funny because as I said I was always not in favor of having any uh business partners and guess what in the online business I have over 130 000 business partners wow more than you can imagine right absolutely but you know the the amazing about that is that you know um they're there to you know lift you up you know and so it's it's just so wonderful with the amazing Community you know we have so many people with big heart you know and they're there to lift you up they're there to cheer you um and to you know actually you know uh walk with you through your journey so you know that that's the amazing part about this business and this community is that you know um exactly we we're there for each other and no matter what you know um and we always lift each other up so that and and that refer back to what you're saying earlier that you know when you don't have a network with um other people you know um sometimes you have questions you can't find the answer to it right but in this business you know if you have a questions you know all you do is you know reached out and someone someone will step down to help you and to you know even though like for instance like you and I um we might have business partner from another country like um in France right and so if you um if you are not able to help me you know my other business partner over there you know if she's still up um she she um she can help me you know and so you know it's there's always someone there that it's available to help you uh and due to the time change right you know the time zone that we have um different time zone um you know while we're up you know other people from the other side of the world they are sleeping but someone might be you know still up you know and they will respond to your um questions so um there there's always someone there to help you and that's why you are doing the business for yourself but you're not doing alone and that that's the beauty of this too yeah so um I know that you touch you know um a lot of the benefits about this business um how has um how has this basically do you have any struggle actually when you first started this business and how has how how have you overcome that question um I yes yes to be honest I had some struggles when I first started and uh oh you brought my all my memories back and you know just like uh just like everybody else when I started I was thinking you know uh that okay now I'm starting a business and boom like the money is gonna like come in my account like next month right which was not the case um I mean I I have literally seen people uh so so successful right from the months like first month and I've seen people like starting their success in the three months so I was the one with the first three months the first three months was tough for me because and not that I wasn't a computer savvy I didn't have any like computer issue I um I I I was so comfortable working on my computer um I I had my Facebook before you know there is people that they come and they don't even know what is Facebook and I have to teach them how to start you know signing up for Facebook um I didn't have that kind of issues but there was some some stuff that came in my path um you know during my advertising and all that stuff and you know it's all become because uh we all um are are not coming from the uh you know marketing background so um you know some people they they really do well and some people they struggle to reach to their goals so um I I think I was one of those that really struggled but but I didn't give up that was the good thing that everyone even my coach is always like telling me that the hats off to you you uh you really uh did your best to overcome all the issues and actually uh just today I I got a text from somebody she she was saying that what is the success to your um what is the story of your success and I replied to her I said this to my story is to be positive all the time and I was like so positive and about this business and I said um if this person can do it why can I right so I never give up so that was uh um that was one thing uh but yeah I overcomed all the issues I had and um I there was so many people I I thanks uh I have this opportunity on your life to it I'm sure they're watching uh later they will watch this video but I I really want to thank them for supporting me uh because you know just like you said earlier without our team support uh sometimes we feel so lonely and we feel like oh my God this is the end of the day you know the life and I'm gonna you know stop doing this but the you know all the support that I had from our business partners really boost me up and pushed me forward to to the success for the business wonderful yes and you know um not everybody is a tech savvy or you know have a um have business experience even myself um you know I'm not a big you know tech savvy um but you know because you know the business like you mentioned that you know in marketing you know they use different platforms they use their there's so much that you know we learn from this business you know like the training right we have free training that you know we uh attend and um we learn from it the you know although you're not a tech savvy or you don't know how to you don't have any experience no problems because you know we have the training that you know are laid out step by steps that you can learn um and and so it doesn't matter what background you are and it doesn't matter um whether you are a um um computer skills or not you know you can always learn as long as you have the desire to learn then you know we are here to teach you and to help you and so you know um this is one of the one of the best business that I have found that you know actually you know um you can you can uh have a network with you know Partners although you are doing your own business but you're not doing alone you have the community there to support you and to guide you and you know with all the training that are there too to help you um and to succeed you know and so you know this is amazing um besides that um I my last but not least my last question to you is before you say the last question when you were talking it's something pop up in my mind I would like to share that sure you know um uh because of the uh I can't say struggles because of the mistakes that I did in the beginning in the first two months of my uh training um of course in the first when when I was in it and I was like getting uh you know a little bit edgy that why this is happening to me and why me and blah blah but now uh after the like two years or so when I go back and think about it and look look at the look at it in a different way and I'm happy I'm so happy that I did all those mistakes because now when all the new business partners they come and I tell them I tell them that hey you know what this is what I did wrong here they said don't do this you don't do it so I make sure that they don't do my mistakes yes so it's good sometimes you do mistakes and you correct other people and help them yes um you know make mistake doesn't mean that you're a failure you know exactly yeah so you know you always learn from it you know and it's oh it's good to have Mystic too because otherwise you wouldn't know what you did wrong right exactly you know so yes um so my um so the last thing I asked you is um what what advice do you have for our viewers tonight and for those who will be watching later um that we play laters um is there any advice that you have for
