How Did It Start?
Alex is a certified personal trainer and a nutrition specialist, whereas Lauren is a dedicated vegan and highly passionate about fitness. Both Alex and Lauren were seeking financial freedom and wanted to escape the monotony of their work lives. That’s when they decided to start a blog related to their core interest, i.e. health and wellness.
What is the Motivation Behind the Business?
Alex and Lauren created Avocadu after they started challenging each other’s views on health and fitness and soon realized a massive gap in the existing health and fitness industry. They were baffled by the statistics of the dieting community of the US and the numbers of overweight citizens despite health and fitness being a prominent industry in the country.
Upon doing further research in their niche, they realized that the health and wellness industry needs a lot of work in demystifying the believes around overall health and wellbeing of people. They identified the need for providing people with knowledge of maintaining their weight and fitness with the optimum diet, hence, the start of Avocadu.
They started getting a lot of attention on their blog and eventually realized the need to share their blogging knowledge with the rest of the world as well. When they were starting with their own blogging journey, they wasted a lot of time and effort on money-making courses online ,which they later realized, weren’t up to par. This led them to start createandgo with the aim to provide real, valuable content to people.
How Long Did it Take to be Successful?
