Boom, shake the room, Fire Nation. JLD here, and welcome to Entrepreneurs on Fire, the only daily show interviewing the world's top entrepreneurs seven days a week. Today we'll be breaking down how to make money in travel. To drop these vibe bombs, I brought Matthew Kepnez in EU Fire Studios. Matt has been traveling the world since 2006.

In 2008, he launched his nomadicmat.com site to help others travel better, cheaper, and smarter, and he's a New York Times best-selling author, and we will talk about how over the last few years the travel creator world has changed, how to find an audience with Google's new changes, the four best ways to diversify your revenue stream, the number one tip to get heard above the noise, and oh so much more. And a big thank you for sponsoring today's episode goes to Matthew and our sponsors. Shopify is the e commerce platform behind 10% of all e-commerce in the US from household names like Mattel and Gymshark to brands just getting started. If you want to see less carts being abandoned, it's time for you to head over to Shopify.
