Mother earns £64,000 working from home: success secret from Stephen Bartlett's mentee.

From a Left Job to a Successful Business

According to The Sun: When busy mother Abby Cornell heard one of her children call the nanny 'mommy', her heart broke into pieces.

At that moment, she realized she wanted to leave her job with a £26,000 annual salary and spend more time with her kids. After finding a secret website, she earned £64,000 working from home, adjusting her schedule around her children, and even moved into a luxury home in the Lake District National Park. Here she shares her earning secret and tells how others can do the same.

In less than ten years, Abby, 47 years old, earned £26,000 a year as an immigration lawyer at a consulting bureau, working late into the night.

She admits she barely saw her children – Grace, now 13, and Illya, now 21.

“I would pick them up from the nanny, put them to bed, and genuinely felt the guilt of a mother,”

“I was unhappy and felt guilty as I rarely saw them. And one day my youngest daughter called the nanny 'mommy.'

“The pain I felt was enormous. The next day I packed my things and left my job without any plan.”

For the next seven years, Abby experimented with various ways of earning – from network marketing to several online businesses, but had no success.

In desperation, she began creating short coaching courses and selling them through Facebook, receiving payments via PayPal. But she lacked the right system to grow her business, and that’s when she found Stan Store.

Stan Store is a US platform that helps entrepreneurs launch online businesses. After registering, you receive your own bio page where you can sell eBooks, templates, and even offer online courses.

Today, the site has 70,000 users with an annual income of over £22.1 million.

Dragon’s Den star Stephen Bartlett invested in the company in May and called this deal “the biggest of his career.”

“I noticed that other entrepreneurs post links to Stan Store in their bios on Facebook and Instagram. I had never heard of it and usually didn’t want to learn about new technologies,”

“I tried to master other platforms, but they were too complicated for me.”

Abby started using the site two years ago, selling business eBooks and online courses that teach others how to create simple books for profit.

In her first year, her business brought in £22,000, and the following year – £44,000, totaling £64,000 in less than two years.

This money allowed her to move from a small three-bedroom house in Bolton, where she paid £74 a week, to a large three-bedroom house with bathrooms in the Lake District National Park, renting it for £460 a week.

“It’s very easy, and I made a ton of money,”

“Every time I post something on Facebook or Instagram, I say to click the link in my bio for more information, and it directs people to my Stan Store.”

However, using the platform requires paying fees.

The basic 'Creator' plan costs $29 (£21) per month, and the 'Creator Pro' - $99 (£73), which provides access to additional features like email marketing, discount codes, and pixel tracking. Over the year, this could add up to £878 ($1,188).

The family home is perfect for her husband Ford, 49, and two daughters – Illya, 21, and Grace, 13.

Abby pays £878 yearly for her subscription but sees it as an investment considering how her business has grown.
