ABOUT KESWIN™ ACADEMY

KESWIN™ Academy guides proactive individuals who want to the hero of their unique personal and entrepreneurship journeys.

A Brief History

KESWIN™ Academy has been through a few transformations in its lifetime, as we have researched, developed, and road tested our system and processes.  We have evolved through continuous improvement of our KESWIN™.

  • 2003:  Our founder, Deb Donnell, visualized a one-stop resource online center to mutually empower individuals to build passion-based businesses.  She set about developing her KESWIN™ and gathering the resources to turn her dream into a reality.
  • 2008:  Deb co-founded Small Biz Incubator, an online training forum helping individuals in the US, Canada, UK, Germany, Australia and New Zealand to build self-hosted WordPress blogs, and write content to market their business online.
  • 2011:  Deb and her US based business partner closed Small Biz Incubator due to the ongoing impact of destructive earthquakes in Deb's home city, Christchurch, New Zealand.
  • 2013:  Deb's vision was rebuilt from the rubble, in the form of Writing Diamonds Academy, focusing on her Diamond Publishing System™.
  • 2018:  Through the process of continuous improvement, Deb updated the training program to provide more focus on the inside-out transformative entrepreneurship journey.  The restructured program is now branded and delivered as KESWIN™ Academy, under Deb Donnell's personal guidance.
