In 2019, Jamie Stark Inlow left her 9-to-5 higher education job and moved to a mini farm in Scottsville, Virginia, to spend more time with her husband and son.
Inlow's side hustle-turned-company now oversees over 120 rentals and inns throughout Virginia, and brought in just shy of $2 million in 2022. This year, Be Still Getaways is on track to bring in $3 million, according to documents reviewed by CNBC Make It. But the investment paid off: That year, the company finally brought in six figures and soon, Inlow was able to quit her other jobs. She started paying herself a regular salary the next summer.
The rentals' success attracted more business partners, and by the end of 2020, Inlow managed about 20 properties. She was working upwards of 80 hours per week between her three jobs — sometimes with her toddler physically strapped to her chest — and still wasn't earning enough cash to replace her $50,000 salary.
