A few years ago I was at an internet marketing event in Atlanta, it was being hosted by Internet Marketer of the Year inductee, Matt Bacak. I was sitting next to some gentlemen from the United Kingdom and on a few of the breaks we struck up a conversation about what they do and what I do, what direction we would like to take our businesses etc.
When I commented on a challenge I was having on a particular business dilema one of the guys said one of the most enlightening things that I had ever considered and it has benefitted me greatly ever since that day. As a matter of fact I still hear his matter of fact suggestion which leads me to the next corner that I am turning in my professional and personal life.
I had just explained that I was in the military and that I was investigating which type of online business would best suit a leader in my unique situation. I knew that an internet business could travel with me anywhere I went so that was a benefit. One of the challenges that I was contemplating was how I could do both successfully and then the guy says;
“Why don’t you just do them both!”
It’s a simple statement I know however I have attempted to do both for a few years now and while I have had success at both I have not been able to find the perfect balance between the two. I chose to specialize in the web traffic niche, some would refer to it as an industry however it is not quite that organized or regulated so in and of itself it can not be referred to as such.
On the military side of the equation I have always been a student of leadership and can honestly say that being a Soldier and a leader is where my main focus has been. At times I felt like my very being was in a tug of war however now I realize that I must travel down a new road which has led me to a decision point that I want to share with you.
I have set in motion 3 plans of action, one has more or less been set for me which regards my next duty assignment in the United States, I will be back in the USA by the new year. I have hired a fully capable administrator to operate my web traffic business on my behalf and I have also become certified in the Local, Mobile, and Social traffic areas which are emerging as the front runners to the dying advertising mechanisms that were once popular back in the day; the book known as the yellow pages, newspaper advertising, etc.
I will soon become certified as a Leadership and Life Coach as well, so as I begin to transition from one place and move to another look for a higher level of success related content from me. I enjoy bringing you entertaining and educational content however I really want to provide material that is valuable to you.
My chief aim and goal is to become a value producer to you, one who you recomend to the people you know and they recommend me to people that they know.
I am curious to know how I can do that for you and them?
