I will continue
with part 3 of our series. If you are just joining
us, you can read
part 1 and
part 2
before reading the rest of this story.
After all was said and
done and the final contract was put into place, I
started training with Jeff the previous owner. Since
our online product is web sites, I had to learn the
technical aspects of building a website.
With twelve years of programming experience behind me, I
felt ready for the new challenge. Putting web
sites together, and everything behind the scenes, is not
quite the same as programming.
This opened up a whole new
world for Todd and me. There is so much to learn
in the internet world. Since we purchased an
existing business, which already had customers, we had
to learn fast.
I started taking HTML classes at the Community College.
I never really thought of myself as 'older' until I was
talking to another student in the class that told me he
was 14 years old. Anyway.. I also learned
FrontPage and started using other applications to help
me with making web sites.
While I was busy in my own
little technical world, Todd spends his time on the
business side of things. So, needless to say, we have spent
quite a few late nights with the new business.
We had to jump right in and
take some chances. Of course, we made some
mistakes along the way, but this is how we learn what
works and doesn't work.
After gaining some
experience in the web biz, we decided to see what the
"Top Marketers" had to offer. We went to Vancouver
Canada to the World Wide Seminar hosted by Randy Churach.
In addition, these top internet marketing guru's also
gave expert advice on various topics.

The seminar lasted from 7 am
Friday until 4 pm Sunday afternoon. There was an
over-abundance of information. If you have never
attended a seminar, you should highly consider it.
Many of the people who attended, had never owned their
own web site. No matter what your level of
understanding, you will benefit from a
seminar such as this one.
The audio/video tapes from
the seminar we attended are available for purchasing. If you
purchase the these tapes, you will receive a Free
turnkey website from StreamsOfMoney.
See details here.
Listening to these top
internet marketers speak opened us to many new and
creative ideas. Each of the speakers covered a
different aspect of internet marketing and had excellent
advice. We felt a new excitement of
motivation as we made our 'to do' list. Although
it will take time to accomplish everything on our list,
each item will incorporate quality to our online
business.
Networking with other
internet business owners was also very motivating.
It was great to hear other's ideas and what services
their online business provides. Keeping in touch
with real people owning real online businesses with
similar goals gives us an awesome sense of reality,
We highly recommend
attending
a seminar such as this one. |
