Danielle Ryan is a Vancouver-based video content creator and strategist covering small business, entrepreneurship, and the creator economy for Forbes. She has been self-employed for eight years and has built two businesses from scratch, most notably a mobile yoga service she launched in 2018 with no experience and grew into the top-rated yoga studio in her region. During the pandemic, Ryan began documenting the realities of small business ownership online, an audience that eventually led brands to hire her for content work and grew into a full-time career in video content creation and strategy. She writes for aspiring and current small business owners and freelancers building without major resources, sharing practical, experience-driven perspectives on marketing, revenue and the less glamorous sides of entrepreneurship.
