Blogging as a Business | Kelan Kline

Today's episode features Kelan Kline, one half of The Savvy Couple. Kelan and his wife Brittany have built a multi-six-figure online brand that now completely provides for their family, but it wasn't always this way... Originally, Kellan had plans of building a career in law enforcement but after spending some time as a jail officer, he knew that wasn't his destiny. Kelan and Brittany would grind away in the off hours to build their blog and one day Kelan landed a $50 sponsorship. That small seed gave him the confidence to go full-time into The Savvy Couple. Fast forward to today and now they've built a team and are starting to expand to other sites. The sky is the limit with these two!
