Kelly Lee, has a passion for shopping and writing. As a staff and freelance writer, Lee always dreamed of having her own publication. “I wanted to start my own magazine but had neither the funding nor experience to really do so. Online seemed to be the wave of the future so I decided to explore the idea,” she says. She started BussBuss in 2004, a site that is the go-to source for online shopping and style trends. “As a vaguely unemployed freelance writer, I was spending a lot of my time shopping online. I though, instead of buying all of these amazing finds, share them online with a daily blog and newsletter.”
Sharing her vision with her 40 of her closest friends and family, Lee loved the fact that this was “sort of an experiment and project as well as a way for me to keep writing daily without being beholden to an editor who would decide if my writing would be published or not.” Now, BussBuss is read by 10,000 daily subscribers and receiving over a million hits per month. Lee has been recognized and branded as an expert in online shipping, fashion, style and design. “Not only did I get to create my vision, but it helped create who I am as a writer and editor.”
Lee loves that “she can do what she loves and work from anywhere in the world. My husband and I travel a ton both for work and pleasure and BussBuss has helped afford us this rare and wonderful lifestyle.” Along with a busy schedule Lee and her husband have supported a lot of new independent designers and companies over the years which she finds very fulfilling. “When you can help make someone’s day and play any positive role in helping them accomplish their dreams that is a good thing.”
