any nurse entrepreneurs outside of nursing?

Published

I just read a really great article about a former nurse who started a hair care product and now sold in target. Any nurses who have businesses outside of nursing niches? I did read some posts on here that a few nurses in real estate.

Kinda... I'm a co-founder, but now more of an advisor, to an On-Demand staffing App/platform for non-medical home-care and Nursing facilities. More business development, streamlining, and coding than actually utilizing my clinical skills.

Anyhow, I'm taking my digital marketing experience in bringing it back to the clinical side as I obtain experience as an NP and open up some sort of multi-location practice.

Fullefect1 sorry for the late reply. How did you get started in digital marketing? I enjoy learning about social media marketing and i know that digital marketing and social media go hand-in-hand.

Yet, I simply did not have hours to spend watching youtube videos and taking digital marketing courses online.

I love my Nursing job and benefits, but with working 3, 12hr days. I use my 4 days off selling Real Estate. I have been a license realtor since 2006 and have flipped 1-2 houses a year. Its the best of both worlds.

I think i read one of your posts a while back SeaH20RN. Thanks for the update. I knew a RN who worked with a plastic surgeon and did real estate on the side. She would go on month long vacations to places like China.

Thanks nice to know. Nursing was not a passion of mines as well even though I love teaching. However I see so many avenues and ventures how nursing can be outside bedside. I am still in school so that is my priority first to finish :)

This is me right now, I have one more year of school to go but I already have severe back pain when I walk up and down for a 12 hr shift. I'm only 26 and clinicals have already wore my body down. When I'm not on clinical however it seems that my pain vanishes and I am a different person.

I am a freelance writer, VA and social media manager and I like to work with Nurse Entrepreneurs. Chronic illness took me out of bedside nursing, so I've been thankful to find these other ways of using my knowledge!
