Crumb Trail FTOS Home : Who Am I and What Should You Do First? |
|
Diana's StoryI have run my own small businesses from home for most of the past 40 years, as I raised my children, helped my husband in his work, and often while working at a regular job as well. I know how much better it is to be your own boss! Working for yourself doing something you enjoy is a far better "reason to get up in the morning" than working any regular job!I discovered the World Wide Web about ten years ago, and I've explored it for many hours per day since then. The amazing opportunity it gives us to communicate with multitudes of people all over the world led me to take my love of small business online, and I have spent much of the past nine years researching and testing hundreds of online businesses and services. About 2002 my partner Nicole (she is married to my son Paul) began to work with me. She is a whiz at web graphics and now runs our website and graphic design website at ForwardWebDesign.com and helps with the ezines and other websites. Now I'll let Nicole talk for a bit...
Nicole's Story
Now w e want to share our hard-won experience, knowledge and resources with you. We want to build a worldwide community of friends and partners who, working together, can all learn more about how to explore and profit in every way from this new frontier. We will answer your questions, and if we don't know the answer, we'll find it. Our goal is to provide you with everything you need for planning, designing, beginning, promoting, and succeeding in your own online business. We check out all the resources we recommend to you. And we'll never give out your email address or other personal information to Anyone else! You can be successful online, but it won't happen "automatically"! And it won't happen without knowledge and effort. We had to learn how to succeed by trial and error (quite a bit of error!) The "error" is what we hope to help you avoid. You will find many websites that promise to help you make money on the Web. But, beware of the many "get rich quick" schemes on the Internet. They'll tell you that "if you will just send them money, they will do all the work for you. You don't have to plan your work and work your plan ...You can be rich in no time, with no effort!" Sure! And why are they sharing this "great idea" with you instead of using it to get rich themselves? You've probably heard the saying, "If it looks too good to be true, it probably is!" That's not really always true, but it is wise to carefully examine those "great deals." "So, how can I tell what is truth and what is hype? I don't want to miss out on something great!" That's what a new partner asked me recently. Here's the answer I gave her: "Don't despair. I and those I partner with have demonstrated what does work: a good idea, the right information, good advice, a little money, and a lot of hard work!" We'll do our best to show you how to make the Internet work for you. On this website, in our e-zines, and in the special benefits available to FTOSuccess Partners, we will tell you about good honest companies and quality products. We will show you which tutorials and training programs actually have the information you need to succeed. We have partnered with some great companies who really will pay you well to sell their products and services! And we'll help you develop and sell your own products or services as you learn and grow.
So, what should you do first?
Let's go forward to online success together. Begin your Free Training by reading through our "Plan It!" section, where you'll learn how to choose the right business opportunity for you, and plan your business. |
