I grew my side hustle into a $20,000 a month business — here are 4 tips I have for aspiring entrepreneurs"I grew up watching a lot of 'Shark Tank' thought it was always fascinating. I never thought that it could be me though," Kang toldfrom her own backyard, she worked hard to land her first tech job."I felt like I was in a bubble, that's all I knew I wanted to be part of this cool kids club," she said.

After she made that initial LinkedIn post in October of 2022, Kang started creating career content on the job-focused social media platform and coaching clients online — and thus, her"Path to PM" was born. By the end of 2023, she says she brought in a total of about $30,000 in revenue and was able to help 10 clients land jobs.

Ultimately, the stars aligned for Kang when at the beginning of 2024, the startup she was working for reportedly offered its employees an opportunity to voluntarily leave the company in exchange for three-months pay. Today, Kang has expanded her business by finding new methods to monetize such as getting brand deals on her content and receiving royalties from her LinkedIn Learning course.
