My guest today is Brian Casel who is giving us the 101 on productized services and this is a great option for anyone who is wanting to create a location independent lifestyle so that you can travel the world without being tied to a desk. If you are looking for something that won't require you to trade your 50 hours + work week for the same thing in a different place then now is the time to get familiar with the different business models out there that will allow you the freedoms you deserve. Brian dives into what a productized service is, how you can take a service you are offering and scale it in a way that gives you more time, freedom, and money, and, of course, we get into travel and the round the States trip that Brian and his family have been on. Plus we talk about him launching a business while they were on the road and why setting up constraints for yourself can help succeed, do the things you want to, and still be cognizant of time.   Are you interested in building a location independent life? Are you wanting to learn more about business models that can make this happen for you?  Send me an audio message (please) or shoot me an email over at Jason@ZeroToTravel.com.   I am so excited to partner with HomeExchange.com who makes it possible to see the world without paying for accommodations.
