Default Got off my ass today to get back into this biz

Dear Everyone,

The past few months, have hit me so hard with running costs greater than income, while nearly loosing my car for a small loan that didnt get repayed up untill now.

It had been hard times, but with working online for several years I guess there had to be a drop off sometime. The road ahead is still unclear, tho I will "think-plan-action-do" this time... instead of the other way round.
Anyway I am back and this time I with not spend 2k in advertising when I can only really spend 1/4 of that per month. Major lesson learnt on where and where not to buy from.

Putting all that aside, i am refreshed, my dog george is like fully grown and my smoking has reduced to 10 per day instead of the close to 50 per day due to unwanted level of stress that I personaly brought apon myself by not thinking my business model through 110%..

Hope all of you have a good day today.

Mark

Default thank you

Thanks for that. You know the only checks were hitting my mail box are still the ones with my 80% recurring.. and these are old signups.

Maybe I need to get some fresher content. At the moment I only really know 2 places, david lace and zip content. Mostly davidlace cause of the 16 dollar specials. and zip content cause of their specials.

Anyone care to refer me to places where I can find simular?

Hope your going well.

Mark

Welcome back Mark

We've all been down at some point in our lives, and can relate.

I am just about to open http://www.egophotography.com. Take a look around, and if there's something you can use, I'm sure that I can work something out to help you get back on your feet.
