10 Non-Techy Digital Nomad Business Ideas that Scale

Start From Scratch: How to become a Digital Nomad with No Experience

If you are an aspiring to be a location-independent entrepreneur and are in need of tailored and purpose-aligned guidance, you’re in the right place.

Perhaps you know you’re ready to step into your unique power and design the next chapter, breaking free from the mold, but you’re not quite sure where to begin.

You’ve come this far: you know the current job or career isn’t for you, and you have this indescribable desire for more passion, greater fulfillment, and, most of all, more freedom in your heart.

The question now is, what to do with it? If only that passion could fuel your laptop lifestyle and pay the bills, right?

You’re in the right place.

I’ve been an expat for nearly 10 years and have grown my location-independent business for the past five years. I’ve built a business that travels, grows, and scales effortlessly, and I’ve supported hundreds of digital nomads and freedom seekers in doing the same.

I’m passionate about supporting you as you transition into a lifestyle where you’re the boss of your own life, can honor your integrity, act on the most adventurous of whims, and thrive as you explore the world as a digital nomad.

How could a digital nomad coach possibly help you with that, you may wonder? If you’re new here, it’s best to start with this article about digital nomad coaching.

Strategy matters a LOT. and I can give you strateg Strategy matters a LOT. and I can give you strategy, you can implement the strategy, and burn the f out only to throw up your hands in the air and find yourself ready to close it all down. Or you can expand, grow, and see your message and impact grow bigger than you. The difference is deceivingly simple: WHO are you showing up as? How good can you let it get? What are your beliefs about money and success? Once you’ve laid the foundations and know how to sign a client, so much of business growth boils down to the inner work. If you’re ready to scale beyond 1:1 clients, and if you feel ready to not only elevate your strategy, but deepen your inner work as well, we might be a fit for 1:1 mentorship. Feel free to take me up on a free 1:1 consultation to chat about your goals and how I might support you. If we’re not a fit, I’ll be sure to tell you, and if we’re are, we’ll sit to create your boldest vision yet, and chart a path forward together. ✨💸

A lot of coaches tell me: “I don’t want to bother A lot of coaches tell me: “I don’t want to bother people.” Meanwhile, their dream clients are sitting in their audience wondering: “Do they even work with people like me?” And this is where I want you to stop making sales more complicated than they need to be: Send the welcome message. Respond to the comment. Reach out to the person who repeatedly liked your stories. Start the conversation. You’re not obligated to pitch them. You’re not entitled to the sale either. You’re simply opening the door and giving someone the opportunity to talk to you. And then you pay attention to what they tell you. Because you probably have more sales opportunities sitting in your world right now than you think. You don’t necessarily need more strangers. You need to get better at serving the people already paying attention to you. I wrote more about exactly how to do that here: You Don’t Need More Leads. You Need To Get Better At Serving The Ones Already In Your World. Want the full article? Comment BOTHER and I’ll send it your way.
“I don’t think now is a good time.” This is one of “I don’t think now is a good time.” This is one of the sales moments that makes me absolutely fucking crazy. Someone says it, and instead of actually listening, the salesperson starts painting a doomsday scenario: “If you wait any longer…” “You could lose another year…” “What happens if nothing changes?” I know I’ve been on the receiving end of these bs questions. My clients tell me they have received these questions, and how disempowering that felt. And my answer is: absolutely not. Don’t do this. Not as a sales person, and not as a potential client. Not cool. And here’s the good news: YOU DONT HAVE TO USE TACTICS LIKE THESE TO MAKE TONS OF SALES! Do this instead: Honor their timing. If someone tells you now isn’t the right time, you can say: “I want to fully honor your inner sense of timing. Tell me though, what would need to be true for pursuing that goal to be the right timing for you?” That is a sales conversation I can get behind. Because now you’re not trying to manipulate them into making your timeline their timeline. You’re getting curious about their timeline, and about the fear that might hiding in plain sight. And sometimes the answer will be: “Actually, I realize I’m ready.” Great. And sometimes the answer will be: “No. There are things I need to handle first.” Also great. You don’t need to overcome a “no.” You need to guide the person toward the right decision for them. You don’t need anyone particular’s money. Even if rent is due. Even if you have five days before cart closes. Even if you have three spots left to sell. Be deeply attached to your goals. Be entirely unattached to any one person contributing to them. The outcome of that one call is not in your hands. Your job is to guide the person toward the right decision for THEM. That is sales I can stand behind. And frankly, I think it’s the kind of sales coaching this industry desperately needs. I wrote a whole article about my thoughts on this + I’m giving exact questions to ask and why. It’s a fun, hopefully comforting, and free read. Simply drop a CALL in the comments and I’ll send the link your way.
Former clients. People who’ve been following you f Former clients. People who’ve been following you for years. People who asked you a question and then disappeared. People who told you they wanted to work with you someday. People whose work you admire. People who have already told you about a problem you know how to solve. SO. MANY. PEOPLE. You probably have more sales opportunities sitting at your literal fingertips than you think. The question is whether you’re paying attention to the relationships already in your world. Ergo: You Don’t Need More Leads. You Need To Get Better At Serving The Ones Already In Your World. And that’s the title of my full article, which you can read for free. Just comment LEADS and I’ll send it over! 💕
One of the simplest sales rules I teach my clients One of the simplest sales rules I teach my clients is this: Never ask a question on a sales call that you wouldn’t ask in a paid coaching call. Read that again. Because it changes the entire energy of the conversation. There are questions that sound innocent enough but are actually designed to put you in the position of Savior and your lead in the position of Someone Who Can’t Do It Without You. 🚫🤨 Like: “And you think you can do this by yourself?” I’d hang up the call if I was asked that…still this is common practice, unfortunately. Now look at this instead: “If you knew this goal was entirely within reach for you, which inner and outer resources would you need to make it happen?” Same general territory. Completely different experience. One disempowers. The other creates a partnership and invites your lead to see their own power. And that’s the point: Your job in a sales conversation isn’t to convince someone they’re incapable without you. Everyone has the inner resources and tools necessary to build their wildest dreams. Your job is to take a stand for that possibility and help them activate what they already possess. That is a very different sales conversation, one that can transform a lead’s life whether they sign on with you or not. I wrote the full piece on why I think sales should feel like a ceremony, not a traumatizing experience for your leads. It’s free to read. And it will change the way you conduct your sales calls.

There is a propensity to say “let me ask GPT” befo There is a propensity to say “let me ask GPT” before we even take a moment to power up our own synapses because, trust me on this one, they do still exist, and they are still functional. And as a result… Generally, the entire coaching industry is moving closer and closer towards a collectively vanilla-fied language. DO NOT BE A PART OF THAT ‼️ Because our job as coaches is exactly this: to notice patterns and point them out. And the same is true of our marketing. We’re supposed to notice what is happening in our business, in our market, with our clients, and then make meaning from it. Sure, we’re in a saturated market and it gets harder to get clients and all…but is that really because of the ‘market’, or because of how we, who are the stewards of the market, behave? Coaching clients buy from coaches because of our point of view, perspective, experience, empathy. None of that comes from a market analysis run by AI. And as leaders of our business, we’re supposed to notice when the thing everyone else is doing doesn’t make sense for our business. We’re supposed to make decisions. And I’m starting to think that one of the biggest risks of AI isn’t that it will replace our work. It’s that we’ll get so used to asking it what to do that we stop developing the part of ourselves that knows how to decide…and THAT will be the ruin of our businesses. Inside my Substack membership, you’ll gain access to live conversations about leadership and how you need to make decisions now to keep growing your business. You also gain access to sales trainings, right down to reviews of your sales calls and scripts. Comment LEADER to join for $11/mo.
A lot of coaches have one bad sales month and imme A lot of coaches have one bad sales month and immediately start rebuilding the business: New price. New niche. New funnel. New content strategy. New offer. Meanwhile… They had 3 sales conversations last month. 1 call. 0 offers made. And then they’re sitting there wondering why sales are down. Sorry not sorry if this is tough. But chances are your offer is just fine…you’re just not selling it often enough. You cannot diagnose a sales problem by staring at your offer in isolation. If you were my client, before we change the offer, I’d want to know: → How many new conversations did you have? → How many relationships did you nurture? → How many people did you follow up with? → How many calls did you have? → How many actual offers did you make? Because if you’re not creating conversations, following up, inviting people into the next step, getting on calls and making offers… your offer may be completely fine. You just don’t have enough activity happening upstream to create the sales you want. This is one of the biggest mistakes I see: people keep rebuilding the business when what they actually need to do is get back into conversations. Look upstream before you burn the whole thing down. I wrote more about this in my Substack article. Comment CONVERSATIONS if you want to read it for free.
