Hi, I’m Sean. In this article, I’ll explain why I switched from civil engineering to creating a 6-figure online education business. Let me start with my career journey.
From Engineering to Online Business
At 20, I worked as a civil engineer, earning a fixed RM2,500 salary despite long hours. This drove me to seek other opportunities.
Venturing Into Ecommerce
Years later, I entered Ecommerce with the iPhone 4 launch. I built websites, managed online stores, ran marketing campaigns, designed graphics, managed stock, and handled accounting independently.
Initially, my business thrived, making over RM20,000. But as competition increased, my earnings dropped to RM200 per month.
Exploring Property and Insurance
Post-Ecommerce, I ventured into property, spending thousands on learning and advertising. After six months, I earned RM600. Then, I sold life insurance for three years but struggled to find clients without existing agents.
The Grabcar Experience
Next, I drove for Grabcar, earning RM1,600 weekly by focusing on peak hours. As more drivers joined, my earnings halved to RM800 per week, prompting me to seek better options.
