In the 2+ years that I’ve been involved with social networking there’s one very clear revelation that I’ve discovered…

People are nosey!

And because of it, the way we conduct business on the internet has changed forever!

No longer is it enough to have just an email address, phone number, and maybe a picture of yourself on your website. Not if you expect to survive in this social media marketing world we live in.

Folks want to know the person behind the picture – really know them.

Because believe it or not, they are interested in YOU, not just your product or services.

They want to know about your kids, your hobbies, your likes and dislikes.

They want to know where you grew up, what schools you’ve attended, where you go on vacation.

But more importantly…

They NEED to know not only about your successes, but also your failures.

They NEED to know that they’re not the only one who’s struggled, made mistakes, been scammed, and chased their tail to reach the “elusive dream” we’re all aiming for.

Getting Real

You see, during the years I’ve been reaching for my dream, I’m one of those who’s struggled, made mistakes, been scammed and chased my tail.

I’ve been unfocused, jumped on the bandwagons of the “latest and greatest”, and wasted more time, energy and money than I care to think about.

As a matter of fact, a few years ago I had reached the point of almost admitting that I wasn’t cut out for the world of online business and calling it quits.

“Find Your Why And Then Fly”
Carrie-Wilkerson
But through what I feel was a divine intervention, I got the “kick in the ass” I needed, in the person of “Carrie Wilkerson” a.k.a. The Barefoot Executive.

My first introduction to Carrie was through a free video course she offers where she details how she built a huge mailing list from one simple landing page.

And even though I’m old enough to be her Mama, I immediately knew that this little gal from Texas could teach me what I REALLY needed to know about building a successful work-at-home business.

Most importantly to me, Carrie helped me refocus on my “Why” for being in business.

As she talks about in her free audio tape, What FUELS You? Driven by your WHY!, it can’t be about the money. Your “why” has to be something more meaningful than just money.

My “Why” is to be able to provide, not the wants… but the needs… of my husband of almost 32 years, our 6 kids and our 16 grandkids. And I want to help you reach yours.

I’d love to learn what your “WHY” is if you’d like to share it in the comment box below.

Thanks for stopping by.
