Why Amanda Switched To Build Remote And Succeeded

Amanda Villanueva was a full-time Director of Nursing, working back-to-back 12-hour shifts. Now, she’s built a $13K/month Build Remote business—without quitting her job.

Living in Phoenix, Arizona with her husband, Amanda spent her 30s building a successful career in healthcare. As a Registered Nurse and Director of Nursing, she worked long, grueling hours—often three 12-hour shifts in a row. She was proud of what she did. But the emotional and physical toll of her job, along with the time sacrifice, left her craving something more.

Amanda didn’t want to leave nursing—but she did want options. She wanted to create a new stream of income, gain time flexibility, and stop feeling like her life was permanently tied to the hospital schedule.

She tried Amazon FBA. She tried Etsy. Neither worked. Each left her feeling more frustrated and less confident.

I was skeptical. But Build Remote gave me everything I needed—and it worked.

Skeptical But Hopeful: Why Amanda Finally Said Yes to Build Remote

It took Amanda six months of watching Build Remote from the sidelines before she finally committed.

What changed? The difference-maker was clarity. Build Remote wasn’t just another DIY course or get-rich-quick hustle. It was a structured system that actually did the heavy lifting—launch setup, funnel buildout, Facebook marketing, and even ad optimization. Everything she’d struggled with in the past would be handled.

She signed up. She followed the steps. And within her first 7 days of launching—Amanda made her first dollar.

That quick win was all she needed to believe again.

I was intrigued by Build Remote, but hesitant. I didn’t want to fail again.

Her early months were slow—but forward-moving:

Anybody can do this because Build Remote provides everything for you.
