3 Steps To Freedom

Freedom means you get to spend each day doing what matters most to you. 

That can’t be done if someone else decides where and how you spend each day.

We want adventures with loved ones.

We built a business that rewards us for following that dream and helping others.

What do you want to do?

These are the first 3 steps to your version of freedom.

1. WHY does your business exist?

Think about something you want to achieve and WHY that’s important to you.

This is WHY people should come to your business. 

For example, ALMO is about having adventures as a family. It looks and feels a certain way. 

WHY it is important to us is also the same reason WHY people like us use our site: shared values and goals.

If you start with that, the next step becomes simple….

2. WHAT problem you can solve?

Just start with one. 

Talk to people who share your goals and values. 

 

There will be reasons they aren’t doing it yet.

 

 

For example:

 

Our audience wants to have family adventures in a meaningful and responsible way. 

If the goal was simply to get kids outside, you could send them to a camp or kick them out the front door.

So, there are questions about safety and security, 
Whether it’s “Is Albania safe for kids?” or “How do we earn money while we travel”

It’s not about us being experts; it’s about understanding how the problems look and feel to our audience.

 

 

3. HOW can you help?

Imagine a conversation with someone who shares your goals and has a problem. They ask for your help; what do you give them? The simpler, the better. It just needs to work for them.

How To Redefine Success? What Does It Look Like?

We grew up believing success meant long hours, steady jobs, and climbing the ladder — until we realised it was costing us the life we wanted as a family. By questioning what work, education, and success should look like, we found a way to earn online, travel, and spend more time together. This is how we broke limiting beliefs, redefined success, and created a family life built on freedom, balance, and adventure.

Why we started an
"online" business?

When we left our career in the outdoors  to start our family, the last thing we thought we’d do is start an “online” business. 

It seemed unlikely for two people who just wanted to spend more time outdoors. 

However, after suffering redundancy after redundancy;

We had to find an alternative.

We needed a way to create security. 

We wanted a chance to do the things we wanted to do….

"Why don't you just get a better job?"

We tried; new companies, new industries, new careers, franchise opportunities. We even tried starting a traditional business again.

It’s not that they were all terrible. But everything required us to sacrifice so much time that we were missing the important things in life. 

Either that or they required money we would never have.

Years were slipping past, Our children were growing up so quickly. We were losing touch with friends and family, losing our health, loosing time to make memories.

We jumped from one opportunity to the next, hoping a solution would present itself.

We never stopped to ask ourselves simple questions like…

  • ”What do we want the rest of our life to look like”
  • ‘Who do we want to be?”
  • “What action should we be taking now to get where we want?” 
  • “How much work a we willing to put in?”
 

We were unlikely to answer these questions, working for someone else. 
We needed to build something for ourselves.

Doing it online just meant we could start. No more excuses…

Is online right for you?

The simple answer is, only you know.

The Economy has changed.

 Many of the jobs and business we may have relied on are gone or going because, 

directly or indirectly, the economy has moved online.

People have stopped using shops and face to face services. 

Everything can be done cheaper and more efficiently online.

We are questioning the need for commuting, offices and other old industrial infrastructure. 

How long is your industry going to last?

It’s not really a question of: 

“Should you work online or offline?”

It’s more a question of:

“How are you going to to live the life you want?”

Are you going to achieve it on your current trajectory?

 

A last word about online business?

Building an online business has many advantages:

  • You can build a business that is unique and personal to you. (The more authentic, the more likely to succeed.)
  • You can do something that makes a difference.
  • There are very few overheads.
  • You can work where you like.
  • Once set up it requires very little daily work (you don’t have to stand in shop or office waiting to sell something or go to pointless meetings) 
  • You can explore all kinds of avenues and create multiple businesses.
  • If you can make £100 you can make £100,000; scaling up an business online is far easier and less riskier than offline.
  • You don’t have to quit you job to start.

But it's still a business:

  • It’s going to require some investment; of time, money or both.
  • You’re going to have to learn some new skills. Online businesses make use of your attributes. but you need to learn how to channel them.
  • You’ll make some mistakes. Very few people get it right and profitable straight away.
  • A lot of online businesses fail. Usually people jump from one idea to another with no real idea of what they’re trying to achieve

Still want to get started?

It takes guts and determination to get an online business working.

However if you make it work you can create a life you probably didn’t think was possible. 

We don’t have all the answers and we’re still learning ourselves. 

What we can offer is valuable insight into mistakes we made and lessons we’ve learnt and the resources to get started.

Because that’s the hardest part: starting.
